    Still recovering from Covid and in need of renovation. No powerpoint at bed. Aircon fan speed way too high, and blowing in your face when you sleep. Plumbing in need of renovation. Booking directly didn’t work, so used booking.com.

    Our 4th visit over a period of 35 years. Beautiful location. A great place to relax. Very friendly staff.

    The mattress was a bit hard, during the day there was construction on nearby unit which was a bit noisy. Aircon was leaking in our unit. Water heater for shower also required fixing.

    Excellent location, nice beach, decor and ambience was very nice and beautiful. There was a congkak set which we borrowed. Bfast food was excellent!

    Actually nothing except the prices of products in the hotels boutique( very high) and avoid monsoon period though the sea is rough ( red flag).

    Fantastic location, beautiful beach and wonderful staff, great breakfast specially the kind great chef 🧑‍🍳😀making special food arrangements if someone isn't quite comfortable with authentic Malay cuisine (the hotel's speciality), the reception/pool staff and the resort manager Mr. Ramesh Krishna welcoming the guests personally with a smile😎

    Ah, this quite tricky but maybe because of my room quite far from the pool that suits my kids. But overall, it was a pleasant journey

    Wow..this resort was on its own class in terms of services, facilities, friendly staff and accomodation. Although i got a room that need me and my families to climb stairs, but the experience being here is amaze us. Thank you for the super duper awesome hospitality. It makes my money worthwhile when we stay in there. It such as an privileged to get a high class hospitality. Maybe i will came here again in the future

    Although the room is large and has quite a special decor, we were surprised that there was no seating area and also no curtains to stop light coming in through the Venetian shutters (the Venetian blinds were fine). However, the major problem we suffered was the breakdown of the hot water when we arrived. This couldn't be repaired until later the following day, so of our 2 nights stay we could not have a comfortable shower for half the time. But we were very grateful for the upgrade.

    This is a beautiful location and a beautifully designed resort. The staff are, without exception, friendly and helpful. Excellent breakfast. Much appreciated the valuable upgrade because of the problem in our first room.

    We went end of January, and because of the currents at that time, there was washed up litter on the beach. There were staff out there cleaning every morning.

    Beautiful property. The accommodation was well sorted out. Pool is nice. Good selection at breakfast. The staff was really accommodating and personal and professional. They made a great effort to make you feel welcome during the whole stay
