One of the best stay ever. What i can say the hotel provide world class hospitality during my stay. For sure gonna come back again in the future. The hotel is family friendly. The pool area is good. Then the kids room and recreational area is the best for my kids.

View is good. I book a room with sea view. I enjoy so much sitting in the balcony. However, the sound insulation in room is not that good. I heard the people’s voice from next door inside my room. The hotel is big with many facilities. The sunset view is great. Avoid coming to hotel in the evening as there always traffic jam.

One of my favourite resorts.
Nice design in terms of architecture, structure, and management.
Great environment both inside and outside.
Safe and secure with CCTVs and guards.
I like using the toilets, they are clean and I don't need to touch the flush to flush and the tap automatically washes my hands. It's hard to find clean toilets in Malaysia, tho Malaysian infrastructure has improved.
Pretty lovely place to take pictures and relax.
There are facilities like the gym, kids play place, clinic, spa and swimming pools.

The resort has a very nice view and the whole area is nicely decorated with a relaxing vibe. Staff are friendly and helpful. Room and bed were comfortable that I slept well. Only downside is the facilities are all worn out and the Star lounge has no facilities at all (the sauna facilities in the nearby changing room were all not in use), nothing but only sofas for people to rest.
