Fairfield by Marriott Kuala Besut

The hotel is a good alternative to the islands. The accommodation on the individual islands is quite expensive. The hotel itself is very good, great big rooms and everything is super clean. If you want to go to an island, be sure to ask at the hotel.

It is very nice to take children on vacation in a hotel. There is no need to go out to sea. Snorkeling at Marriott Beach is very beautiful, and there are many fish. The boat to the island is very luxurious and new. Room: The overall design of the room is good. There is a balcony, a Toto smart toilet in the bathroom, mouthwash, and the smell of bath essential oils is good. The bathroom is large, which is very convenient for bathing children. There is also a bathtub for bathing and bath salts are provided. Dining: There are three restaurants. Western food is delicious, especially meat and grilled lamb chops. The only shortcoming is that there are fewer Chinese dishes. After eating a few meals, I missed Chinese dishes such as fried rice, fried water spinach and steamed fish. It is suggested that the hotel can add Chinese food. Facilities: Three swimming pools, the water is quite clean and not cold. I didn’t have time to go to the gym. The parent-child children’s center can take care of children and has handicraft classes. There are also some yoga classes, cooking classes, and diving coral introductions that I didn’t have time to experience. The hotel also has a diving center where you can book sea trips and rent diving equipment.

The front desk staff gave us the wrong advice and made us miss our flight! And we were misled by them even after we confirmed whether it was feasible!!!

We were apprehensive about going there because we knew the hotel was located on the coast and not on the islands, but the location is quite good, in a very quiet place. Using the Grab app, we could call a car for €1.20/€1.50 and in 5 minutes we were at the dock to catch the boat to the islands. And in 30 minutes we were on the islands. If you have any problems, the hotel staff will also help you. It is clear that the hotel is very new and there are still some things to be done, but the staff are without a doubt the friendliest and most helpful we have ever met, especially the staff at the restaurant, super attentive and careful, always concerned with checking if everything is okay and helping. The chef Bob definitely knows what he is doing. Probably one of the best burgers I have ever eaten 😄. There is a huge beach 500 meters from the hotel, which is always deserted!
