Tung Wan Beach @ Cheung Chau Island

We book a night at Bela Vista Villa with K’s BFF to celebrate their 6th birthday. We parked at Rumsey Street Multi-storey Carpark just 10 mins walk from the pier. Took the standard ferry to Cheung Chau Island. We prefer the standard over express because of the vip deck at standard, it’s comfortable enough for the 50 mins ride, providing bigger space with vending machines, tables and chairs. Bela Vista Villa was just 3 minutes walk from Tung Wan Beach. It’s perfect for a beach getaway. There are toilets and shower areas. Water quality ain’t bad, we saw fishes swimming next to us and even flying fish jumps out right in front of us while we are swimming to the floating platform. Fyi, we booked a 2 bedroom with roof top for barbecue (didn’t get to use it) at Bela Vista Villa via Holimood for less than 2k per night.

Here we go again ~ Sai Yuen Camping Adventure

After our previous stay at the African Safari Tent (for details on Sai Yuen, I suggest to read this https://www.facebook.com/113508473635882/posts/215658000087595/), we booked for a night at one of their most popular, the Sunset Vista. It’s a dome-shaped tent on a big lawn with facilities and surroundings to enjoy privately.  Dome-shaped tent with:  - 1 double bed and 1 sofa bed for max. 4 person  - Air conditioning (cold/heat)  - Coffee table and chair  - Floor lamp - Sockets and charge ports - Bay window  - Private shower and toilet cubicle with toiletries  The surroundings: - Barbecue stove  - Sink  - Picnic tables  - Fire pits with wooden seats  - Hammocks  We love this private space we have so much! While adults are barbecuing and getting dinner ready, kids took our torch and explore around the campsite. They won’t be allowed to leave Sai Yuen, so it’s safe for them to roam around by themselves. And while Mr and myself are...

Glamping at Simple Cottage

Staycation with kids at Simple Cottage are delightful! We’ve been looking forward to spend a night at the colourful little cottage for months (we made reservations in late October, last year).  And we are not disappointed! Kids love everything about it and have been asking if we are going again. Their absolute favourite is of course the playground, which is understandable given that playground elsewhere have been closedown for weeks; next in line would be the colourful cottage, especially the attic part which they claimed the territory almost immediately; and last but not least, the idea of barbecued at front door with wooden bench as our dining area.  So, glamping here is definitely another fun experience to do with family/ kids! Simple Cottage is located in Shui Mui Tsuen, Kam Tin; offering colourful cottage with basic furniture and equipments such as air-condition, single door refrigerator, electric stove and cooking pot, shower and 3 double beds. In addition, you could ren...

Getaway to Macau

We decided to have a quick trip to Macau before the holiday weekend on 16-17th to dodge the crowd. Kids first time to Macau, we chose the Parisian Macao 澳門巴黎人 because of their family room (the double decker and kids area in the room). Of course, the kids love "their new bed" , so much that K refuse to leave the room.  First stop to the Macau Science Center. Skipped the playroom, just checking each exhibition, stay longest at the kids ones.  Then, walk all the way from Parisian to R Do Cunha (官也街) for crab congee and egg tarts. That's 25mins one way  of walking with 2 tired children.  Next day is mainly hotel's playhouse Q Cube and Le  buffet before going home. Q Cube entrance fees are included in our package, kids love the playhouse, spacious and with different sections for different ages.  X
