Cherai Beach Residency

• Great location right opposite the beach. Restaurants available within 500m radius. • Stayed in the beach view rooms. The rooms had a balcony which directly overlooks the beach. • All staff were very friendly and courteous. • The property has a well-maintained swimming pool, lot of greenery and a kitchen so that food can be ordered and customised as per requirement.

All good.

Emplacement un peu éloigné du centre et des restaurants mais tranquille et face à la mer. Chambre simple mais agréable avec vue sur la mer. Personnel disponible et accueillant.

Fantastic place. absolutely loved my 2 stays here. great owners (wont forget them) very helpful! all the staff were great also. highly recommend Cherai Beach Residency! 🙏🏻 Thankyou.

The location is certainly a strong point. The hotel has direct access to the beach and provides sunbeds and towels, which is convenient. I had a room with a small balcony facing the ocean, which was pleasant. Also the small property is a bit far from Cherai Beach center and is therefore calmer.

I genuinely don’t understand how this place receives such positive reviews. First of all, it is overpriced for what it offers. This is essentially a two-star hotel, yet the prices are much higher than the quality justifies. Cleanliness is questionable, and breakfast is quite disappointing. Breakfast service is particularly problematic. There is only one person preparing it and has to go up and down 2 floors which results in waiting times of 30 minutes. Even then, the breakfast often arrives incomplete, coffee or tea was forgotten on the first day. Portions are minimal. Additionally, I did not receive the room category I had booked. I had reserved a Deluxe room but was instead given a Standard room, with no difference in price. While the room I received did have a balcony facing the ocean, which could be considered desirable — this kind of change should always be discussed with the guest beforehand. A room change should only be made with the guest’s agreement, not imposed without consultation. Once again, this reflects questionable service. In conclusion, the stay was acceptable, but far from what the price suggests. I am quite certain there are better options available at Cherai Beach for the same value.
