Pangkor Sandy Beach Resort

A small hotel on the beach, well maintained and excellent gardens. The pool was small but warm and idyllic, the hornbills fluttered back and forth over the pool. The rooms were excellent, the chalets near the beach are well finished and excellent. Breakfast was a small buffet but they changed the menu each day and everything was good quality. If you have stayed in a Malaysian hotel you will know the breakfast can be dodgy and runs out by 8am. Not this one! Very clean they came round every few hours to check for leaves having fallen. The sand was raked early in the morning. An absolutely idyllic stay. We stayed at merdeka weekend so was not cheap but was good value. We will stay again, it is everything you hope for in a Malaysian resort and rarely get.

this is our 4th time to pangkor sandy beach resort. we booked the deluxe family room, enough pillows, good sized bed. the room was spacious enough. it had a patio facing the pool, which the kids loved, as they could just zoom into the pool at any time. the pool was good sized, enough sun beds. there was a adult and kids pool. breakfast options were enough, they gave a change of menu every day, so it wasn't boring. lunch and dinner also can be ordered from their restaurant. food was good. celebrated my husband's 50th bday there. with a short notice, the hotel staff could pull off a pretty decent and nice dinner for the 6 of us by the beach. it was such a beautiful sunset birthday dinner. their food was also superb. nothing much to fault here. everything was good.

My first visit to Pangkor, and I must admit, the views are stunning—both the sunrise and sunset are truly breathtaking. They served an excellent buffet breakfast, and we also tried their dinner—the butter prawns were simply amazing, and the prices were reasonable. My dad, mom, and sister absolutely loved their teh tarik. Getting around town was convenient since we rented a car, though it’s not really necessary unless you have kids with you. The swimming pool was fantastic, with easy access from my room to both the pool and the beach. The manager is always around, and he's a very friendly person. We had a great chat, and he even shared some must-visit spots for our trip. The staff were also incredibly kind, and on my last day, I met the owner—a warm and welcoming uncle. One memorable experience was the manager stopping by during breakfast to feed the hornbills. I would definitely visit again!

The location is strategic. Love that the resort located at the beachfront and close to the jetty. Love the fact that this resort is small but complete with facilities. I don’t have to walk far from one place to another. The place is clean and well maintained. I also like that almost all the room built surrounded the pool area.

It's as advertised, a 3 star hotel. So please don't compare to a 4 or 5-star. We got room 103 and 105 (both facing the swimming pool) and it's on the ground floor. And it's just steps away from the beach. The bathroom looks pretty new. TV is Netflix-ready, so we used our Netflix account to watch movie in the evening. The restaurant was also very close to the rooms. They prepared adequate breakfast spread. Kudos too to the front counter staff because I did call earlier to get some info on how to reach the hotel from the mainland. The advice was extremely helpful! A great experience overall!
