Located in George Town and only 70 metres from Tanjung Bungah Beach, Sea Lion by the beach provides accommodation with sea views, free WiFi and free private parking. There is a private entrance at the homestay for the convenience of those who stay. Every room has a patio with garden views. Definitely the best place I’ve stayed in Penang. The owners are very kind and helpful, it’s a pleasure to chat with them. The house feels like a home. It’s very convenient, quiet and clean. I wish I spent more time there. Hope I will come back!

Offering a garden and garden view, Nature Fruit Farm - Private Estate is located in Balik Pulau, 23 km from Penang Hill and 23 km from Taman Rimba Teluk Bahang. The property features mountain and river views, and is 18 km from Queensbay Mall. The guest house provides rooms with air conditioning, free private parking and free WiFi. This place was so peaceful. It felt super secluded, but still with the comforts of being near beach and city, (and for example easy to order grab to). It was the perfect getaway between all the different fruit. We used the common areas a lot, as they were really nice to relax in, but our chalet was also really nice and comfortable. We used the bikes provided to take a trip through the rice paddies to the beach. We walked the hike up to the Thai restaurant with the great view. But we mostly relaxed on the beautiful property, reading, chilling, playing games. The hosts are really kind and it was nothing but a pleasure to stay with them. Really helpful and fun people.
