Port Dickson is a seaside town in Malaysia just a 3.5 hour drive from Singapore. It’s a perfect location for a weekend escape away from the city, with calm ocean waters and exciting water activities like jet skiing and banana boating. Here are 8 affordable resorts in Port Dickson from $43/night to book a stay at:
Wake up to glistening waters right outside your window at Avillion Port Dickson (from $93/night), which has water chalets sitting on stilts above water. Its rooms are furnished with plenty of wood to mimic traditional Malay fishing villages.
The villas are connected by over-water boardwalks that bring you from the hotel lobby to your room and other parts of the resort.
There’s a Pet Farm onsite with rabbits, peahens, tortoises and chicks that you can pet and even bathe. Alternatively, visit the Aviary at the resort to admire their prized South African peacocks.
