We travelled together with Soren, Anna-Maria and their kids Eva & Sofia. You can choose whether to drive by yourself or get a bus to pick you up, where we went for the latter. It was a very smooth trip to Rawa, except that Hannah got fever the night before we left and she threw up in the bus... last three! vacations and one of the kids are sick (Matilde in Borneo, Hannah in Hong Kong last week) but luckily enough, they get well within 24-36 hrs (in HK, Hannah got well after 4 hrs and a visit to the the emergency room!!!)
Well there, we ended up having loads of Scandiniavian families from Singapore, couldn't have been better!!
Funnily enough, at one time, we were 5 families were everyone had daughters - hence 11 girls playing at the beach at the same time :-)
The waterslide was definitely a hit, Hannah loved it!! As the tide was about 2 meters, you had to make sure you used it in the morning, otherwise it was a 2 meter drop down on the sand....not so comfy... :-)
Almost all adults and older kids decided to jump of the pier, was really exciting for kids and non-jumping moms....!
If someone is thinking about going to Rawa, I think it is good to know that it is definitely not a luxury trip. The nature and suroundings are amazing, but the bungalows/rooms are nothing but fancy. You eat all your meals at the same restaurang, and the food is ok, but after a few days, you crave other foods. There are snacks to purchase but would recommend to bring your own, especially for the kiddos, if you don't want them to eat chips & icecream every day...
It was mostly families with young kids so if you have kids, great place for 3-4 days getaway! Going there simply as a couple...maybe not. Or maybe, we only managed to go there at the right time :-)
