Room is large and has perfect view of the beach and pool. Quiet beach for a nice long walk to a jetty that stretches out to a part of the sea. Clean facilities with many mirrors in the room. 5mins drive to shops and eateries. Special thanks to the staff who are just wonderful and super helpful - I was with my hubby on a wheelchair and they assisted us in so many areas. Whole hotel is wheelchair accessible.

The breakfast had a huge selection with omelets cooked to your selection. The pool was the best I ever seen. One section had a 25 meter pool for swimming laps with lanes marked. A kids section, a bubble pool, a slide. The hotel van took me where ever I wanted to go(including to the race early in the morning.
Can’t think of anything

The room was huge, spacious and comes with a view of the beach. The area around the hotel is quiet and peaceful. The resort has its own private beach, away from other the public.
There was nothing much to eat around the hotel and the cafe/restaurants looks closed for most of the day. Not sure if it's due to low room occupancy rate as we didn't see much people around despite the resort having many rooms. The breakfast was average.

Big pool
Room was clean
In need of a staircase to get down to the beach.
Lousy breakfast. Long wait time to get table, long wait to get eggs. Food ran out quickly and didn’t get refilled.

Great hotel for families and those who want to relax. The pool and proximity to the beach make this is great choice. Breakfast buffet is also very good in terms of options and quality.
Eating at the hotel restaurant and room service is very expensive.

From pre check in to check out the staff were kind and helpful. We had some special requests and they emailed us assuring us and met our expectations. The restaurant’s chefs were superb. They are extremely talented. The food portions were big and value for money. The bar tender at the pool bar made us unique drinks that was exactly how we prescribed our mood to be. Overall my partner and I would highly recommend the hotel to get away from hustle and bustle. We really enjoyed ourselves. Thank you to all the staff. Truly! God bless you

The beach so nice, the suite room with its own pool is really awesome, it comes with a swing right next to the pool, worth the value of money. The food at tenpayaki restaurant is really good, I'm enjoying the food so much. The beach bar has many choices of drinks and finger food, a really good place to chill while enjoying sea breeze
The food at the western restaurant (herb n spice), the taste of food needs to be improved, the western food is also a bit frustrating. The room cleanliness also needs to be improved, the room have an unpleasant smell, i need to spray my own perfume to overcome that.

Food was great,at last they added more variety to the menu.This was my 2nd stay with family but with the monsoon season the kids wasnt able to enjoy the beach but facilities are okay, sufficient even
We had best receptionist before this time was worst,rooms were mixed up,requested for adjoining doirs but if you dont have it for the same type you shouldnt down grade our room just to ensure that we get the adjoining doors.Previous receptionist did better handling on checking us in even it was late also but it was only till 340pm.Check in time this round was worst than before,registered at 1pm and requested side to side rooms for the same type but was not made available. Best thing ever was rooms was only being provided at7pm welldone management team!!!

lots of play place but service was extremely horrible
AVOID THIS PROPERTY IF YOU WANT A PEACEFUL HOLIDAY WITH YOUR FAMILY
We checked in at 3pm only to be told they have SOLD OUT our rooms. I booked the ground floor private garden but they wanted to place us at the. 5th floor. Receptionist girl had a very useless attitude and kept mentioning they will change our room to the double storey family room.
we kept rejecting as we have 2 active toddler that will go up and down the stairs the entire time!
Alas after talking to the manager, he managed to give us the room we booked but it was already 6pm! He promised us a late check out but also at the end the girl in the reception insisted we check out at 12pm.
our entire experience there was super mediocre!
SERVICE WAS HORRIBLE!
Breakfast finished at 9.30am even though they only close at 10.30am. I saw the breakfast chef playing phone and sitting down at one of the tables mid breakfast 😂 what a joke!
coffee cups was no more at 10am
we ate at the teppanyaki restaurant, the server served our food while chewing on his dinner
I could see him chewing something
after waiting 1 hour for our food, our teppanyaki was served on a plate full of ants.
portion was super small and price is exorbitant even for a hotel standard.
NO STAFF IN THE PREMISE WORE MASK. not even then food servers.
take your precious money and book a drama feee holiday with your family elsewhere

It was a quick weekend get away for us, last min booking & value for money. Breakfast was great, bit crowed but nice food, access to beach & water sport, super friendly staff.
The restaurants at the hotel is ok-ok, not worth the price. However just few mins drive you will find some food options. which worked well for us
