For eating in town avoid the tourist waterfront restaurants adn go for the Warisan shopping mall where the various modern restaurants offer great food at great value.

Our room was charmingly decorated-- a touch of the past and modern decor.

Apparently a taxi to and from the Rasa Ria costs RM180 however the concierge hooked us up with a private charter driver who had a nice modern vehicle and spoke excellent english.

I found it to be well worthy of its 5* status, the rooms were huge, comfortable, modern and clean (especially the wonderful, spacious, marbled bathroom), the staff were efficient and the food was of a good standard; good choice of restaurants; an excellent variety at breakfast and good cocktail/ snack bar at the pool.
