During my stay, I encountered several issues that made the experience less enjoyable than expected.
1. **Air Conditioning Problems** – The air conditioning did not cool effectively, even when set to 16°C. Despite adjusting the settings, the room remained uncomfortably warm, which affected sleep quality and overall comfort.
2. **Inconvenient Seaview Room Design** – One of the main reasons we booked this hotel was for a Seaview experience. However, every time we opened the balcony sliding door, the air conditioning automatically shut off. While this might be an energy-saving measure, it was frustrating to deal with. Each time we returned inside, we had to manually restart the air conditioning, disrupting our relaxation.
3. **Unpleasant Basement Parking** – The basement parking had a strong, unpleasant odor, making it uncomfortable to walk through. Additionally, the overall atmosphere was eerie and unsettling, which might not be ideal for guests arriving late at night.
4. **Location Concerns** – The hotel is located next to an abandoned building, which negatively impacts the surroundings. The parking area is shared, which may lead to congestion or security concerns. The presence of the abandoned structure further adds to the feeling of neglect in the area.

This resort is value-for-money. The family suite came with 2 bedrooms and a rather spacious hall (with aTV, a sofa, coffee table, dining table with 6 chairs, sink, and a mid-sized refrigerator). The walls look freshly painted. The mattresses were nice and firm. Just that the bedsheets smelled a bit musty, although clean. ( I think the hotel needs to change the detergent.) There was 1 wardrobe in each room, and a TV in one of them. Generally clean and pleasant. There were 3 swimming pools. Private beach was clean, waters near the shore were surprisingly clear, and we even sighted some zebra-fishes and jellyfish. There were lots of little crabs on the beach. All these should be indicators that pollution levels should be low. It was a pleasant stay overall. Just wished there were more indoor things to do (e.g. bowling) during rainy weather.

First of all, this resort is quite unique and has a beautiful view, and the room is warming ❤️ and nice Lakeview but maybe really bad luck is first day I stay no water coming, can't use water at all for few hours, then next day 🥶 water pump in is brow color Abit sad after flushing 1 hour plus water still Abit greyness. But overall this place is nice just maybe we are not lucky. night time will be a bit scary because quite a lot of wild animals suddenly appear. hopefully next time could be better.

Had a little issue with checking in but was resolved so overall is still okay. The exterior looks a bit rundown, but given the price, I can't expect much. Value for money if staying with a huge family. The interior is pretty decent, but will be better if the rooms have TVs as well...
