I'm looking for a special occasion hotel in peninsular Malaysia. I've always wanted to stay in a hotel that has individual rooms/bungalows on stilts over the water. Anyone know of one?

I found one (Golden Palm?) that is near KL, but it's too big (400+) rooms, and the beach area doesn't look very nice. There's a beautiful one on Pulau Pangkor Laut, which is nice because it's only 3 hours driving from KL, but the rooms are pricey (400-500 USD/night for a room over the water). I'm willing to fly from KL if necessary.

I'd love any suggestions about a good place to stay!

Thanks for the suggestions!

You can experience this in Thailand as well, there are a few in Hua Hin.

The novelty wears off quickly, IMO.

Well, I'm already headed to Malaysia, so I'm looking for a cool hotel there.
