Find Hotels in Desaru, Malaysia

This resort was a last minute booking by middle agent due to the first booking at lotus resort screw up just a couple of days before check in. The S&S resort is located within/along the desaru coast similarly to all the other resorts. Room: Large, clean, spacious and bathroom amenities. Toilet: Clean, spacious with heater. Service: Most are able to communicate in English. Though if peak period their manpower might not handle, just wait awhile. Pool: Just nice, provided heated/warm pool towel, clean pool, pool bar service available (drinks and snacks). Recommend the fried chicken. Beach: Not recommend to swim due to large wave. Generally clean and safe to play on the sand. Security: Safe and secure, feel very safe and sound when staying and parking within the resort. Restaurant: Had the Japanese food for dinner, took awhile but overall was very satisfied with service and quality of food for the price paid. Morning breakfast was standard international buffet.

My friend and I were cycling in Johor and needed a place to sleep around Desaru, we found a promotion at Desaru Tunamaya which seemed decently priced (Rm.67++) and the reviews were good so we decided to stay there. Upon our arrival, first pleasant surprise: the place is extremely easy to find. Then during check-in and without asking for anything: we got upgraded! Room was on ground floor with direct access to the pool area, and had two beds (1 king size and 1 single). The room was very clean and well furnished, quiet and comfortable so we had a great night sleep. The pool is okay (a bit small and super crowded with children) but the beach is just right there and they have someone to clean it every morning. The breakfast buffet was good and overall the staff were very nice and professional. I think the thing we enjoyed the most was the barbecue area near the beach where you get a huge plate of BBQed meats for Rm.40 and you can order drinks, beers etc. I would definitely recommend staying there, the other resorts look just as good but I can only talk about what I know: Desaru Tunamaya Beach & Spa Resort is a nice resort, I definitely will come back!

We went to Desaru for a surfing trip, and we stayed in this hotel. To go to the surfing beach, you have to arrange for a taxi to pick you up at the hotel. The hotel is just beside a mall and some restaurants. On one of the levels, there's a bar (where they have a duo singing) and a play room where you can play billiards. The breakfast is nice as well and the place is peaceful.

We are a family of 2 adults, 2 young kids and 1 senior. We’ve been to Desaru for a few times and stayed in different resorts. We were never satisfied. We went to Lotus with a little skeptical, albeit reading good comments in forums. Receptionist was friendly, we were given a room with fallen exhaust fan in the bathroom and asked for a change. No question asked. In the evening we went for dinner at the coffee house late at 9+ pm and the Captain offered our 2 kids free for the buffet dinner. As our kids would usually take only some dessert and hardly any main course. We were very happy with the nice gesture offered by the Captain, thank you. B/f was pleasant too, with appetizing spread and clean. The crowd was extremely heavy on the day we checked out, as it was a Good Friday Holiday but it was in good order. Our kids enjoyed the water playground a lot. There were guards constantly watching at the crowd – very impressive. There were also a few different pools, one of which is very deep (just be cautioned, I think it’s 1.4m or something, well written at the side of the pool). We would highly recommend this resort as it’s the best we have ever stayed in Desaru. Would love to come back.

Rooms were big. Staff surprised us with a change for my room from family suit 1bed room to a pent house. Not sure why but was the best surprise. Rooms were spacious. Just that 1 of the rooms aircon werent in working condition only can be used as fan. Great beach view. Cooling swimming pool. Not crowded. Private space. Overall great experience. Thanks to Agoda and to Tiara Desaru Seaview Residence staff u all made my stress relieve holiday better.

This place is GREAT!!! I have some worries after my booking as some of the reviews were not pleasing. However, during my stay, the staff is very helpful and friendly, she even helped my request to order a cake from outside to surprise my wife birthday! Good job!!! My wife is extremely particular about cleanliness every time we travel. This place cleanliness is exceptional good and we are very delighted with such cleanliness as we have young children. View from the balcony is AWESOME as it is facing the swimming pool and the garden. The weather is good so we were lucky to see sun rise from the ocean in the early morning. We really enjoyed our stay here! Keep up the good work and we will definitely come back again!!!

They provide free breakfast in the morning. Although there is VERY limited option of food, but for me is more than enough and value for money! Location is very strategic where the mall is nearby and alongside of hotel got plenty of restaurant. the ayam penyet restaurant at the other end of the building is da bomb. Hotel room is clean with perfect amenities. Definitely suitable for short term business traveler.
