SPACES WITH INSPIRING PANORAMIC VIEWS, COOLED BY SEA BREEZES By The Sea Resort is situated along the famous Batu Ferringhi beach in Penang. Located on the famed Batu Ferringhi beach, By The Sea is a low-density development comprising 3 low-rise blocks of 138 units of suites. Its expansive 50m infinity pool and deck has unobstructed views of the sea while the green hills serve as a verdant backdrop.
Welcome to By The Sea Penang. I like to travel.
THE CHARM OF SEA-SIDE LIVING The lushness of the landscape, the sounds of the open sea, and the soothing sea-breeze of By The Sea can be enjoyed even from the suites. Most suites have their own 4 ½ feet deep and expansive 40-foot long balcony, to welcome in the refreshing outdoors. Large glass windows throughout the development give a sense of liberating openness, from the public spaces to the private spaces. On the pool deck level, right next to the 40 seater function room, a fully-equipped and state-of-the-art Gym overlooks the rehabilitated river. A perfect indication of life at By The Sea.
