Wedding anniversary trip as this was where my husband proposed 30 years ago. It was under a different management then but it does look dated. Maintenance better than the average Malaysian resort. Nice pool. It’s a large resort but there a few guests and most of the time it felt like we had the place to ourselves. Lots of guests appeared on Saturday night, it seems for a MICE event and disappeared again by Sunday.
Despite the few guests, they keep most things going, huge breakfast buffet, cafe, Japanese and local restaurants and the beach bar with a lonely pair of singers who keep on singing all night long even though I never saw anyone in the beach bar! The seasports and ATV, minigolf facilities were also open during the weekend although it seemed closed when we arrived Friday afternoon. Charge are high though - it cost RM65 for adults to play mini golf.
Only 3 tackles off guests at dinner time in the Japanese restaurant and none in Herbs and Spices. Teppanyaki chef was totally focused on cooking so it wasn’t a fun experience like you would expect and food was quite tasteless.
Wasted opportunity with such a beautiful seafront that they didn’t turn the unused bistro and beachbar into a seafood restaurant.
We went to the next door Tunamaya resort’s Nelayan Seafood restaurant and it was bustling with tourists and locals and the food was delicious and cheap.
Breakfast big interesting looking loaves of bread was stale and not replaced the next day.
Nasi lemak was the best
