* Sematan beach! * Anyway the cute little beach house has 2 storey. 1st floor houses the tv set(which has nothiong much on..m'sia..), toilet, 2 single beds and some chairs.
Sematan beach is pretty new to the local pple. Meaning it's unpolluted. Most locals go to other beaches, like we used to in other yrs. But now i heard those beaches are polluted. Isn't it sad? That with more tourism,with more pple affording the gd life, nature gets polluted. So we do our uptmost part in conservation of nature by going to another beach to pollute them. Haha..right. So anyway we went to sematan. I heard it's pretty new place to go. Cos in the past u need to drive an hr away from Kuching and then take a ferry across..wow i mean how cool is that! Now they built a bridge across so it's convenient like shit. Onli chalets and simple resorts have been built to tap into this nice place. No luxurious siwmming pools and hotel rooms. Juz a simple beach resort we went too. Incidentally, this place is opened by hsiaolin's dad's classmate who they havben't met for 40+ yrs. Wow. And then the owner's older bro was my dad's classmate too!! wow! everyone knows each other..hahaa. NO discoounts still leh...y ah.. Anyway the resort offers no swimming pool, nothing but cute little nice beach hses, a long long stretch of beach to ourselves, food to eat, and then water activities. Y is this beach more popular nowadays? bcos its water is clear. Not turquiose thu but it's clear. And if u pay more u can take a boat out to the neighbouring islands and i heard the sand there is almost white and corals, so snorkelling..wow.
The cute little nice beach houses facing the sea. Each of them painted a different color. So cute! And then we were given key to our house and it states the color of the house instead of the hse no. aww
That's the 1st floor that we took from the 2nd floor. The architecture is kinda nice. And then the 2nd floor, u climb a steep stairs up to actually wat looks more like the attic.
Then the 2nd floor has 2 single beds and a window b/w the 2 beds and the attic like ceiling above us. It's kinda weird when u wanna change (outside the toilet) bcos it's like open. U got to ask pple below to draw the curtain at the front door if not anyone can see u change. haha ..cute. And then our beds facing the small window shown in the picture, and we can see the sea!! When we sleep, we can also hear the waves. Wow...i wan a beach hse like that next time!!
