Ninety kilometres to the east coast resorts
Desaru has changed a great deal in the last decade, and the resort strip along the coast now draws a steady flow of weekend traffic out of Singapore. It is a comfortable run — around ninety kilometres and an hour and a half to two hours — but it is not well served by anything other than road transport, which makes a private van the practical choice rather than just the comfortable one. We collect from your Singapore address, cross the checkpoint and take you directly to your resort entrance, whether that is on the coast itself or further round towards Penggerang and Tanjung Leman.
Golf bags, beach kit and families
Two things dominate what people bring to Desaru: golf equipment and children's beach gear. Both are bulky, and both are the reason a van beats a car for this trip. A full set of clubs per person plus overnight bags fills a boot quickly, and adding a couple of children with their own kit finishes the job. Tell us what you are bringing when you enquire — clubs, boards, a pram, a cooler — and we will recommend a van with the space rather than one that technically seats everyone. The Desaru day-trip rate is worth asking about if you are going for the day rather than staying over.
