Reflections on Malaysia 2025
Malaysia sits at the crossroads of our SE Asia playground. After our wonderful visit last year we decided to return for a longer visit at our same Airbnb in Kuala Lumpur and a longer visit in the mid-sized town of Ipoh we discovered on our 2024 visit. After 45 days in the country in the spring, we will return in December 2025 for a visit to Penang and Langkawi islands in the north.
Below are pics from our accommodations. We also did a podcast about our time in Malaysia posted below.
We were here November 6-14, 2025 in the Serene Suite with kitchenette, living room, 1 bedroom and two baths ($81 per night, property website). Rooftop pool, bar open in evenings. Loved it! We’re coming back for 10 nights at Chinese New Year in February 2026. Good location. Georgetown is fun! Highly recommend.
