Location
Ferringhi Mutiara Apartment is 15.4 km from Magazine Circus. It is more suitable for people who are working along the Batu Ferringhi area than those working in town, mainly due to the distance and traffic congestion along the way. If you are working even farther away - Bayan Lepas or mainland - you should consider the wisdom of staying this far.
Public Transport
Rapid Penang Bus 101 pass along Jalan Batu Ferringhi, the main road some 300 meter from the condominium.
Amenities
The nearest petrol stations are the Esso and Caltex in Tanjung Bungah. The nearest schools include SK Batu Ferringhi and SJK (C) Pai Chai. The nearest market is the Tanjung Bungah Market. The nearest shopping is at Island Plaza, Straits Quay and Tesco Tanjung Pinang.
Traffic
Jalan Sungai Emas gets quite busy in the evening. Jalan Batu Ferringhi is also moderately heavy, and slightly congested where the road narrows.
