Experiencing Sunrise Gurney 68PG Seafront Duplex Homestay (13 October 2017)
Sunrise Gurney 68PG Homestay is a luxury homestay on Gurney Drive, Penang. It offers two-bedroom duplex condominium units as homestays. My wife and I had the privilege of trying it out on 13-15 October, 2017. Upon arrival, we were issued a car park access card and personal access card. The unit has a spacious living room and a hallway with kitchenette.
Unlike staying at a hotel, amenities are at the minimal. However, a homestay is really like staying at home, but at a different location. And if I were to pick a location for a home, few has sceneries as breathtaking at Sunrise Gurney 68PG. From this duplex condominium, I can get panoramic views of the sea and Gurney Drive in the foreground. Straight ahead, we can see Gunung Jerai in the horizon, to the left is Tanjong Tokong while to the right side, is George Town and Butterworth. I could just stand there in the living room, gazing at the view.
We cocooned ourselves in our unit for much of the time. We only came out when it's time to grab a bite. On our first evening, we ate at Song River, located just across Birch Road from the condominium. In the morning of the second day, we had our breakfast at New Cathay in Pulau Tikus. For lunch, we had Nasi Campur Wati at Hai Beng Coffee Shop, at the junction of Jones Road with Burmah Road.

Size of rooms and length of swimming pools can be measured, but hospitality can only be experienced. Understanding this, the numerous hotels in Penang have extended to me the opportunity to experience their hospitality so that I can showcase what they offer to guests on this website.

Hello and thanks for reading this page. My name is Timothy and my hobby is in describing places so that I can share the information with the general public. My website has become the go to site for a lot of people including students, teachers, journalists, etc. whenever they seek information on places, particularly those in Malaysia and Singapore. I have been doing this since 5 January 2003, for over twenty years already. You can read about me at Discover Timothy. By now I have compiled information on thousands of places, mostly in Peninsular Malaysia and Singapore, and I continue to add more almost every day. My goal is to describe every street in every town in Malaysia and Singapore.
