Resort World Genting - WHERE TO EAT AND STAY?


Asking where to stay in Resort world genting is a dumbest question ever! Why do you need to worry about staying in a bus tops while there are 4 HUGE hotels in Genting that you can choose from but of course, it depends on you budget.
Maxims Genting
Theme park hotel
First world hotel
Awana Genting Highlands Golf and Country Resort
If you ask me where to stay, I’d suggest First world hotel. (for now you should have know that I’m the economy type =_=”) It’s also the only hotel that I’ve stayed during my previous visits to Genting.

It has the lowest fare compare to the other hotels but don’t doubt the quality of the rooms. They are pretty comfy and most importantly, they are clean and tidy! Thumbs up to the room service. Other than that, there's huge shopping mall (First World Plaza) located right next to the hotel.

 After settling the accommodations, the next thing to worry about is FOOD! Yes! That’s certainly a big problem!

The problem is not that you can’t find food until you need to eat grass, but instead, there are just too many foods to choose from!
Resort world genting had just launched their “Mountain of food” early this year by our most wanted chef in Malaysia, Datuk Chef Wan! The concept of “mountain of food” is about bringing all the local delicacies around Malaysia to Resort world Genting, not for display but to satisfy the taste buds of the visitors.

They serves everything from oriental food to continental food. Seriously, you name it, they have it! There are over 100 restaurants serving 200 over dishes and I can assure you that there will be the food that makes you droll.
If you ask me where to eat, I’d suggest the fast food chains. Eventhough the price is slightly more expensive than other branches in town but the food will certainly fill you stomach well enough for the hectic day! (hectic as in playing all day long)
Ok lah! To be honest, these fast food restaurants serves foods which are more economical compare to those seafood restaurants that might cost you a fortune if you’re just blue collar like me. But if you’re planning for an eating spree, then let your gluttony takes over you conscience and start eating all you want! I bet there’re no other places better than Resort world Genting for you to unzip your true-self of a glutton.

Here's some of my suggestions restaurants to try out by category
For the mid-range (photo fetched from google)
For the high-range (photo fetched from google)
By the way, you don’t really have to worry about breakfast as most hotel provide buffet breakfast for their occupants. If you still want to save more, then just stuff yourself with the delicious breakfast then start fasting until the next morning!
Enough tips for accommodation and food from me (the kiam siap traveler :D)

Resort World Genting - What to SEE?

To be honest, all these while when we visit Resort World Genting, we only visited the theme park area or the arcade area. We always thought that Resort World Genting is just a place for entertainment and not much for a sight seeing session.So, now's the question, what to see at Resort World Genting?

After some survey online, I just realized that entertainment is just a fraction of Resort World Genting. There’s this hidden side of the resort which not much people have known of. (Maybe just us that didn’t know about this -_-“) Seriously, this is a very big DISCOVERY for me!


Introducing the Awana Genting Highland Golf and country resort!
This is a hidden treasure right next to the theme park and it consists of a large reserved area filled with untouched rainforest.

Wonder what does this awesome place has to offer? I bet you’ll be surprise when you see the list below!
You can go for the Nature trial which you will be toured around the reserved forest and enjoy the scenery filled with exotic plants and rare animals. There were even trees over 100 years old! (Even older than my great great great grandfather!)
You can also visit the orchid and strawberry farm which is just a stone throw away. If you’re an orchid enthusiast, do look out for the rare grade A orchids which you rarely seen in town.
 
As for the strawberry farm, you’ll have the chance to pick your own strawberry right from the stem of the plant by using scissor and basket provided. Something that you must not miss is the products of fresh strawberry where you can get no where else but right in the farm such as strawberry milkshake, strawberry coffee, strawberry milk tea, strawberry fondue, strawberry pudding, strawberry cakes and many more.

Have you ever heard that you can actually find deer, bears and even elephants in genting?!! I bet not!! Well, you can actually get a very close view with these mammals or even walk side by side with them and feed them some food during the walk. Just head to the deerland and elephant sanctuary to experience all these.

There’s also a forest area for picnics which is located just a short distance from Resort World Genting known as Hutan Lipur Lentang. You can organize a picnic session with you love ones and also enjoy the cool yet clean streams.

This discovery has certainly change my impression of Resort World Genting! Now there're many thingsI've yet to see! I'm getting more excited to explore more about this wonderful resort!
