Tony’s Guesthouse at Teluk Bahang in Batu Ferringhi provides adults-only accommodation with a garden and a terrace. This guest house provides free private parking, a shared kitchen and free WiFi. When staying at the guest house, guests can use private entrance. In the middle of the nature, so peaceful. Close to the beach and to several beatiful hikes. Exactly what I was searching.
