Unfortunately we went there during the peak period - Christmas. The hotel, malls, restaurants, everywhere were packed with people. We had to spend long long time for a game (indoor or outdoor) or for a seat inside the casino.

If you aren't sure of the destination, you can make arrangements with
the hotel manager to use their limo-service to take you right to the door-step. Once you are there, you are safe to get around on your own with the help of the signboards located at various places of both indoor and outdoor.
There is also a Chinese temple somewhere out there. While the children are at the Theme Park, why not try your luck at the casino.
Most important of all, you will never be
left hungry as there are many restaurants and cafe just around the corner.
Last but not least, hope you or/and your family, will enjoy yourself at Gentings Highland Resort.

The Peak Restuarant on the 17th floor of the Genting Hotel is highly recommended - excellent service/food/ambience and they presented a surprise complimentary birthday cake that we weren't expecting. It was the only part of the hotel that meets its 5* rating in our opinion.
The Theme Park had some reasonable rides and cheap compared to the UK, but again some very scruffy areas. A lot of building work going on on an adjacent new hotel - if they are to cater for another 6,200 rooms in the new hotel, they will certainly have to upgrade the Theme Park as it definately would not cope with the increased numbers.
The whole area is a bit of a 'concrete jungle' in a hill-top/rainforest setting, however we were expecting this. A few eyesores around, especially building sites/depots. The Casino was worth a visit.

This is the first time I travelled to Genting without going through Travel Agent tour package and enjoyed the 'freedom' in terms of the time to arrive and to leave Genting. It is easy to take a bus from Singapore to KL and to connect a shuttle bus from KL bus terminal to Genting Skyway Terminal to take the cable car upto Genting.
The only bad 'experience' during this trip is the 'crowd'. E.g. having to queue at least 45mins for the cable car ride upto Genting and the waiting time for most of the rides at the Theme Park was about 15 to 30 minutes. If possible, avoid peak period.

Theme park was average, and the casino was packed. Good that they have separated the smoking and non smoking section. A lot more work is needed to keep up to international standards. Attitude of staff needs to be improved.

Basically the main attraction up in Genting Highlands is the Theme Park (Outdoor & Indoor), the well known casino and of course the "Fresh Air" in the clouds.
