I can honestly say that this hotel is worth every penny and could not fault much about it.
Everything you could ever want in a resort hotel and more. Staff friendly, rooms enormous and very clean.
Restaurant - slow in service and not very well cooked but with all the restaurants outside the hotel that are cheaper why would you really want to eat there anyway. This only applies to the evening a la carte menus
- Restaurant Tip : If you decide to eat out from the Hotel in the evening you cannot go far wrong with the Happy Garden or the Boatman. Both excellent value for money and extremely friendly. Try the sizzling prawns

Spacious rooms, only really seaview is expensive. Go there if you like breakfast! The pool and the garden is so nice. We are travellers but stayed a week longer just to relax.
Great pool, staff and breakfast was really excellent.
You have to walk about 10 minutes to town, but it's really great to walk.
- Sightseeing/Attractions Tip : Butterfly Garden, take a cab, walk to the bus and take this back to the hotel, really cheap.

We stayed here on our honeymoon and found the location perfect. It is far enough away from Georgetown and the last hotel in the Batu Ferringhi beach area. We enjoyed this because it a truly relaxing time, nice and peaceful. The poolside area was well equipped with a good sized swimming pool and an expansive recliner area, there was no need to go down to the beach to swim.
We also liked that when we did walk through the hotel gardens to the beach we weren’t bombarded with hawkers trying to sell us knick knacks.
The onsite restaurants are great, with a nice variety. We went for evening walks and found many restaurants along the bay that were quite a bit cheaper than the hotel with excellent food.
Overall our stay at the Bayview beach resort was most enjoyable. The staff were friendly, polite and efficient.
Good range of on site activities and off site tours. Excellent buffet breakfast.
The foyer needs to be freshened up with some colour.
- Restaurant Tip : There are some excellent seafood restaurants within walking distance from the hotel.
