Our stay at Westin was amazing as usual. It is our go to spot for a quick holiday from Singapore! A very well maintained and clean hotel with very attentive and amazing staff, beautiful location-right at the beach(clean and well maintained with a small bar shack) They also have bikes for rent-first hour is free. And many kids activities every day. There’s also a play room for younger kids. The breakfast has a great spread! Could be a little bit better for vegetarians though. The Indian section worked for us. My daughter and I enjoyed the chocolate fountain:) The rooms are so spacious with all amenities, comfortable bed and pillows for a great sleep. There’s a pillow menu to choose from too. The bathroom is also big, with a huge tub(with bath salts!) The kids enjoy their time at the Desaru Westin so much, they refuse to try any other hotel when we are visiting here.

“Cheap beach getaway but lacks the 5-star experience”

We stayed at the Westin Desaru Coast Resort for 3 nights and 4 days. Pros: - It is well located; just a short (free) bus ride from the ferry terminal. It is close to the beach and Hard Rock Hotel and the Anantara in case you want to visit other properties nearby. - The room was spacious and has … Más

We stayed at the Westin Desaru Coast Resort for 3 nights and 4 days. Pros: - It is well located; just a short (free) bus ride from the ferry terminal. It is close to the beach and Hard Rock Hotel and the Anantara in case you want to visit other properties nearby. - The room was spacious and has a nice view of the beach. - The spa was nice (we had the Urutan Malaysia massage which was very relaxing and enjoyable) - a big thank you to Adel. - There is a sizeable gym, bicycle rental (2hrs free for Marriott Silver Elite status) and badminton, table tennis, snooker etc. - Good value, especially for European / American travellers (note though that this isn't a premier Asian resort vacation and you would be better off at the Mandarin Oriental nearby if you can afford it). Cons: - This property is marketed as a 5* wellness retreat but it lacks the 5* experience. It is more of a short/weekend family getaway and not a premier Asian beach resort experience. - Staff lacks training. Kitchen service (especially at Seasonal Tastes and Mix) is very slow. We waited 30-40 minutes for a dessert on one day and one of our mains on the other when the restaurant was practically empty. When another guest questioned why they had waited 30 minutes for a drink, couple of the staff members were openly laughing. - The beach is very close to the property but isn't clean and feels crowded. Deck chairs were dirty. Unlike other Asian beach resorts, you can't really lounge on the beach and we were stuck in our room for a large portion of the day without anything else to do in the vicinity. - Prego was empty one evening when we went for an early dinner but we were denied entry without a reservation and were told to sit outside if we wanted a table. Felt a bit uptight coming from a resort restaurant with average pizza.

“Average resort, beautiful beach”

A very average resort that underwhelms. Average rooms, average service and average food. For the Westin brand, I expect more.

A very average resort that underwhelms. Average rooms, average service and average food. For the Westin brand, I expect more. There’s only 3 restaurants - one that only serves buffet for dinner, the other 2 with relatively small menu. The beach on the other hand was wonderful. Pristine sandy beach that was clean with a huge ‘safe’ area for kids to play safely. But of course please keep a close eye on your children. Overall the resort has a small footprint, which is good as being compact means everything is within easy reach but also bad means there is not much amenities or facilities. Just a highlight for bird lovers- the JungleVella bird tour is pretty interesting to spend 2 hours looking for local birds. The guide was knowledgeable and engaging and also shown us some local floral and fauna beyond just birds.
