Looking for a cosy, chill spot in Batu Ferringhi? You've found it! Our Muslim-friendly guesthouse is right next to Ferringhi Plaza—just a stroll away from Secret Recipe, 7-Eleven, McD, Briyani House, Petronas, and loads of tasty eats. Facing a mosque, you might hear the morning call to prayer—peaceful vibes included. Rooms are comfy for a short stay or a restful night, and you can even book all 6 rooms for a group trip, party, or homestay getaway! We’ve got free Wi-Fi, a basic kitchen with a water dispenser and sink, and free parking nearby at Ferringhi Plaza. Want to relax? There’s a massage spa just next door. Only 3 mins walk to the famous night markets and a quick stroll to the beach! Need wheels? We can help arrange bike rentals. Located at the start of Batu Ferringhi, this spot is perfect for beach lovers, foodies, and explorers alike.
Hi, I’m the owner of Ray Yan Guesthouse, a cozy little spot on Penang Island, lovingly named after my two children — Ray and Yan. After retiring from the corporate world, I decided to start this small business to share the charm of Batu Ferringhi and the wider beauty of Penang with travelers from near and far. I personally manage the guesthouse, and my goal is simple: to provide a comfortable, homely stay for guests looking to experience the rich culture, food, and natural beauty of the island. Whether you're here for the beaches, local heritage, or just a peaceful getaway, I’ll do my best to make you feel right at home.
