Mar Vista Resort, Batu Ferringhi, Penang (26 September 2009)


Mar Vista Resort (GPS: 5.47117, 100.27521) is a condominium in Batu Ferringhi. It comprises six blocks of 3 to 18 storey apartments totalling 414 units, with sizes ranging from 830 to 1,840 sqft. It was built on freehold land.

Facilities at Mar Vista Resort

Facilities include 24-hour security, covering parking lot, swimming pool, children's pool, jacuzzi, gymnasium, sauna, indoor hot & cold spa, general maintenance and landscaped garden.

Location of Mar Vista Resort

Mar Vista is 11 km from Komtar, 18.1 km to the Penang Bridge and 28.8 km to the Penang International Airport. It is a little on the far side for people working in George Town, as you have to work your way through crowded roads every rush hour. And it's definitely far if you're working in Bayan Lepas. It's a good place to retire or work from home, as the view is fantastic.

Public Transport at Mar Vista Resort

Rapid Penang bus 101 from Weld Quay Ferry & Bus Terminal or 102 from the Penang International Airport pass along Jalan Tanjung Bungah. However the apartment is quite a distance from the main road.

About this website

Dear visitor, thank you so much for reading this page. My name is Timothy Tye and my hobby is to find out about places, write about them and share the information with you on this website. I have been writing this site since 5 January 2003. Originally (from 2003 until 2009, the site was called AsiaExplorers. I changed the name to Penang Travel Tips in 2009, even though I describe more than just Penang but everywhere I go (I often need to tell people that "Penang Travel Tips" is not just information about Penang, but information written in Penang), especially places in Malaysia and Singapore, and in all the years since 2003, I have described over 20,000 places.

While I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware. Nevertheless, I hope that what I have described here will be useful to you.
