Terrible
We did not enjoy this place at all. It was not clean, trash all over, dirty elevator, clogged sink in room. It was very outdated. I do not recommend staying here. We left after the first night and forfeited the 2nd night because we were so uncomfortable there.

The exterior of the hotel looks very run down.But the good thing is the room still looks pretty decent.We stay there for 2 nights and my son love the swimming pool so much.Nothing much to complain about with the price.
Rayson, 2-night trip

It is a pleasant place to be, however I think it can be better well maintained as it does look a wee bit run down. Great for family and friends for short getaway.

Value for money
Value for money. Room looks like it has been recently renovated. Cleanliness can be improved in the toilet and balcony area. On the whole, it was a comfortable stay. Breakfast was good enough. Beach was clean. Will be back to stay again!
1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The rooms are clean, comfortable and spacious. We booked 2 family rooms and 1 twin room and 1 of the family room is connected to the twin room which is great. For the price paid, it is value for money. One area that can be improved on is the breakfast which some food items are placed outdoors which tend to attract flies. Will suggest to include milo as a breakfast hot drink option noting that the resort has many families with kids.

Ida, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Good for short getaway. Room is spacious and the bed is comfy. Best thing about this hotel that all rooms have both sea and pool view. Swimming pool is big enough. Breakfast should be improved as it have same menu two days in a row during my stay and my last visit last year.

Average stay
Stayed for one night. Arrive late at night. Parking is pretty far, full of mud due to rain and poorly lit. Room was average. When I arrived, the lift was under maintenence. Could be used to go up but need to use the stairs to go down. Definitely could be improved.
Ahmad Fadhil, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

I went on a weekday and hotel allowed me to early check-in due to non-peak period. The room is big and clean however, the building is quite aged. Staffs are friendly.
