Melasti is the definition of get what you pay for. the location is fantastic, right on the beach and within walking distance of so many fantastic bars, restaurants, spas, shopping and anything else you may need. in terms of the accommodation itself, it is very outdated. had to relocate a couple of times to find a room with half decent air conditioning and decent water pressure but we got there in the end and our aircon ended up being fantastic! bathroom was reasonable in the room we ended up with, but the first couple i tried had some pretty harsh mould. in terms of the rooms it’s really hit or miss however staff at the front desk were very helpful making sure we ended up somewhere we were happy with. breakfast selection was more basic and limited than has been in previous years, however enjoyable. phone in our room didn’t work, kettle had melted plastic and mould in it and they were doing some work on the power during our stay which resulted in us getting minor electric shocks through the taps and water for a few days but after works were completed we had no issues. honestly, we used the room to sleep, shower and cool down between shopping and beach trips, so for that purpose it did the job. i will always chose Melasti when i’m staying budget purely for the location if nothing else.
