What makes a Great holiday destination for family? | How I provide value by doing review

I love to share about Interesting places to visit in Malaysia.

Have you been to Malaysia or plan to visit Malaysia sometime? You should try visiting Malaysia as it has a lot of places to visit. Some places in Malaysia such as Mulu National Park even have been listed down as one of the world heritage sites.

Anyway, it started when I’m trying to find interesting places to visit for my Kid’s school holiday. Malaysia has a lot of places to visit but which one is the best? What kind of activities do they offer there?

I’m also interested in specific details such as if I’m going to a hotel with a private pool, how deep is the pool? Is it safe for the kids?

Hence, most of the places I reviewed is related to places where we as a family can enjoy with details that I feel would be useful for people to make their decision.

And after a lot of activities with the family, which restaurant do we go to? I believe you get where I’m coming from.

This is another reason to visit Malaysia. Food! There are varieties of food to choose from Malay, Chinese, Indian, Arabic and even Portuguese cuisine. With all these “international” choice of food, would it be nice if we have a good review?

What makes me eager to do a review? I was a bit frustrated as I noticed a lot of reviews in Malaysia for places of interest or even Restaurant is really short and not helpful. Reviews such as “I love this place”. Then, end at that sentence doesn’t really help people when they are finding places or even deciding on places that they want to go.

That’s when I started to share in restaurants. What kind of facilities does the restaurant offer? Is it kids friendly? What is their business hours? And even photos on the menu that the restaurant has.

And usually, when we go to a hotel restaurant, we would like to know how is the restaurant right? As we might need to add on to the 2 free breakfast coupon that the hotel provides. I’m sure most of you have the same experience as me. So, I’m thinking to myself, if I share photos on the breakfast restaurant to give a glimpse on how many dishes are there, would it help people? For me, I will appreciate it.

So, when I share, my desires are to give value by sharing on the details and facts. Even to the smallest details such as how deep is the swimming pool at the hotel with a private pool? Make sure the contact number of the place is up-to-date.

Share on the facilities offered at that place. Photo of the gymnasium to show how big is the gymnasium. Or what is the price to pay for the game room’s games?

And some photo of the sceneries outside of the room. Which room can get this kind of scenery?

Other than that, our quality reviews will help the service provider to improve on their service. For example, the hotel that I stayed really pay attention to the customer’s review.

That’s how you know the hotel appreciate our reviews and makes me PROUD to be a LOCAL GUIDE as I know my efforts help to make my places of interest, especially in Malaysia a better place not only for me but also to the tourist. And this gives a great image to my country! I consider myself an ambassador for my own country.

With those details, I’m hoping that I help people to make a wise decision and get more value for their money.

So, what makes a good holiday destination for a family? Good food, safe environment and 2 king size bed of course!
