Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was a good experience overall. The rooms were a bit dim, and the odor was noticeable due to a lack of airing. On the bright side, the hotel could accommodate up to 3 people in a room, although accessing the room after a child accidentally locks the door could be problematic. The service was friendly and welcoming, but there were some minor issues with cleanliness. The location, while peaceful and family-friendly, was a bit far from the city center. The dining options were decent but could use some improvement. The facilities were satisfactory, but not exceptional.
The hotel felt like a cozy cottage, though a bit dusty at first, the room looked more spacious than in the photos, which was a pleasant surprise. The service was lacking a bit of attentiveness and flexibility, but the location was serene and beautiful, feeling like a rainforest retreat. The dining experience was disappointing with limited options, but the facilities were decent overall.
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms had a strong wood smell in the afternoon, and there were ants in my bed. The bathroom was disappointing too, with a clogged basin and a bathtub I couldn't use. However, the location was convenient, just after the Malacca Toll, even though it was a bit far from the town. The service was nice but lacked attention to guests' needs and was not very welcoming.
My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The rooms weren't the cleanest when I arrived, but the staff made up for it with their friendliness. The location was peaceful but a bit far from town, and the dining experience was a mix of buffet and limited options. However, the facilities were satisfactory overall.
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. While the rooms were cozy and decently priced, they could have been cleaner. The service was lacking in friendliness and attentiveness, with delays in requests. The location, though surrounded by beautiful nature, was far from the city center. The dining options were limited and not up to par for a 5-star resort.
The hotel is located in a quiet place, slightly out of the city, offering a great escape surrounded by nature. The rooms are not soundproof, which can be a downside, but I didn't experience any disturbances from other guests during my stay. The staff, including the friendly foreigner team members, are very helpful, although there was a small mix-up with my room reservation. The proximity to the toll gate makes it easy to find but also means it's a bit far from the town, around a 30-minute drive. The dining options were decent with good in-room choices, though the breakfast spread was a bit lacking. The facilities are well-guarded, and the gym and sauna are maintained well.
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were very clean and comfortable, perfect for those who enjoy nature views, but some top floor rooms had a wrong wood flooring design and a lot of cobwebs. The service could use improvement as the staff seemed unfriendly, not accommodating, and sometimes rude. The location was convenient being near lots of attractions in Ayer Keroh but a bit far from the town, requiring a 30+ minute drive. The dining experience left much to be desired, lacking variety and being quite expensive. However, the hotel is very near to nature and offers a unique stay in the 4 units-in-1 house type of rooms.
The hotel is conveniently located right after the toll to Melaka Ayer Keroh, allowing easy access and avoiding heavy traffic to town. The forest environment adds to the peaceful atmosphere. However, despite being a 5-star resort, there are limited facilities available, especially for children.
The hotel offers unique and comfortable rooms with a nature view but may lack proper cleanliness. The service staff work hard to meet customer satisfaction but need improvement in customer service. The location is convenient and near attractions but has some facilities under maintenance. The dining options are limited and need variety, especially for vegetarians.
The hotel is conveniently situated near Air Keruh, with friendly and helpful staff. However, the cleanliness of the rooms is questionable, and the noise from ongoing works can be bothersome. Using a buggy is necessary for access, and the room cleaning seems hasty.
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were clean and inviting, but service had its ups and downs. The location offered a great escape but had some drawbacks. Dining was not up to standard, and facilities were lacking in some aspects.
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms were nice, especially the shower, but unfortunately, they were not properly cleaned, and the location next to noisy construction works was a downside. The hotel staff was friendly and helpful, but the issue with the air conditioning in my room made for an uncomfortable night. The location was easy to find but a bit isolated from nearby amenities. The dining options were limited, and the buffet situation felt like a bit of a letdown.
The hotel is a great escape, slightly out of the city, in a quiet place, with friendly and helpful staff. The rooms need improvement as they were not prepared, and there were ongoing repairs. Brighter lighting at the front desk would enhance the welcoming ambiance.
The resort offers a peaceful retreat close to nature, but some service issues can impact the overall experience. Rooms are spacious but need better maintenance. The location is ideal for exploring nearby attractions, though slightly distant from the town center. Dining options could be more varied, especially for vegetarians.
The hotel offers spacious rooms that are great for families but could use better lighting. The cleanliness was good overall, but the lingering smell was off-putting. The service was excellent, although there were some hiccups with client requests. The location is near nature, but housekeeping needs improvement.
