hi vin,

thanks for your review. its has been really informative for me. i would be going to redang next week and would like to stay in redang holiday. there's something i am really worried about. are you from singapore and did you book the stay direct thru the resort? coz i have problems on the day of checkout. i would be going back to singapore by bus and it won't depart till 8.30pm. but checkout will be in the morning so does it mean i have to carry my luggage around for the whole day? or do they have special arrangement? did you face the same problems?

Hi, We are from Singapore. Hubby & I drove there. Got great help from Tangotee who also drove there. We booked directly with the resort. I emailed them. They replied promptly with the quote and was very helpful. You may want to phone them.

We wanted to log in one more dive on the morning of our departure, so we arranged for a late check-out the day before. We left the island at abt 2.30pm. The folks the day before arranged to leave at abt 4pm. So, I believe it's possible for a late check-out. You just need to arrange this with the resort, but the tide may determine how late you can check out. There's a late check-out charge, but it's ok. Also, when you arrive at the Merang jetty, you can buy t-shirts for abt RM8 or RM10. So, you can shop before you head off to KT for your bus home.

It'd be fun! Enjoy!
