If you like local food, my suggestion is to eat out at the nearby quiet town of Bandar Penawar; a 3 minute drive. The food is inexpensive compared to the fine establishments in the resort.
50RM will get you a seafood dinner for 2.
But this is possible only if you have a vehicle. The road to the town is actually dimly lit. The hotel staff will gladly give you directions. There is no public transport to the town from the resort.
There is also a few mini mart, stalls selling local snacks and a few restaurants. I have my lunch there on my first day. (RM20 for my whole family.)Mbr>
There is also a go-kart track nearby. The track is bumpy and the machine actually needs to be replaced. But for RM30 for 15-20 minutes of some thrills, you should'nt complain. The person in charge was kind enough to let my 2 year old daughter pillion on my kart for a few laps when there is no other kart on the track.
My advice is that you should never stay more than 2 nights here. On my previous trip, I stay for a night only.
