When travellers from Malaysia book

Klook booking data shows rates are lowest in February, typically around MYR 568, and highest in July, typically around MYR 1,002, so February suits a budget-led trip with lower typical rates. Travellers typically lock in rooms about 52 days ahead, and the earliest planners book up to about 150 days in advance; travellers usually plan ahead, and this is especially true for the priciest month. All timing and rate figures come from Klook booking data.
