Merang Hotels with Airport pickup service

The resort and the entire staff are just amazing. If you are looking for an island get away - this is the place to be. The private beach is stunning, and no needs and demands were left unsatisfied. The rooms are clean and tidy and the beds are extremely comfortable. Just bear in mind that the island pretty much consists of this resort, especially during monsoon season. There is not much else to do (except for snorkeling and diving) - it’s overall beautiful if you’re looking for relaxation in paradise.

Looking through the reviews here, there are no recent ones. Things have deteriorated much since I first stayed here in 2019. Back then, service was friendly, room was nice and clean, aircon was functioning like it should. Perhaps blame it on covid restrictions past 2 years. Blame it on low cash flow to do maintenance. Blame it on lack of motivated staff. Truth is, this hotel’s standard has gone down. Broken, poor maintained room, unmotivated & deary staff working, moldy & poorly cleaned bathroom.. I can go on but you can probably get the picture. Pity, it was great back in 2019 but I won’t be returning.

Close to airport but far away from city centre. Airport shuttle available but not necessary as hailing services are aplenty and prompt. Has a kids water park within the hotel

Just OK to stay for 1 night. The room was really too small - imagine the sink could not fit into the bathroom and was located outside the bathroom. And, there were many many small ants all over the room and crawling on all the walls. We had arrived at 12pm and we had to wait for a long time for someone to turn up at reception. Then one lady arrived and checked for a long time only to tell us our room was not ready. Then, she said she would call us when our room was ready. Anyway, she lied as she did not call us at all. We turned up again at 3pm and got our room which was full of ants. I still gave a 4-star rating because of its good location where we could walk everywhere after parking our car. There was a car park behind (hourly meter paid via Touch n Go) or there were 3 free bays right outside the hotel. We tried to go to that cafe in the hotel which supposedly opened at 8am for breakfast. We arrived at 8am but the 2 ladies just refused to take our order as they said their order was not open yet. Then the guy from reception went to make his own coffee and at 8.10am we still could not order. Not sure why they were just not interested so we left and went to have breakfast in another hotel which ended up to be nicer and cheaper.

Extend semalam sbb tak puas makan nasi dagang sebelah hotel. Hotel amat Dekat dgn nasi dagang atas tol. Jalan kaki saja dari hotel. Tak sampai 100 meter. Best turun n sampai ke kedai nasi dagang atas tol before 830. Sbb selalu pukul 9 dah habis nasi dagang
