Tanjong Jara Resort

Excellent, beautiful, quiet & peaceful hotel. Food was good with lots of choice. Staff were very welcoming & always helpful. Cant wait to go back.

The whole experience was heaven, near perfect! Except for the traces of rubbish and all sorts of plastic dumpings along the beautiful beach by irresponsible idiots!

Place a bit too run down for 5 stars and food ok but not 5 stars.

The hotel room looks exactly as advertised. This is my 2nd visit to this place & will be more visit to come in the future

amazing stay

The resort is run by very very professional and well trained staff- our water glasses were never empty despite us lounging at the poolside from 2 to 6pm. The service staff on duty, Babul, was extremely attentive yet unobtrusive in ensuring that our glasses were filled, and out food trays were cleared. The resort is very well maintained, save for the gym equipment, but was not an issue with us.

I booked 2 rooms (Serambi) through Hotels.com and specifically mentioned that the two rooms MUST be adjacent to each other as I travel with my kids. As usual, I need to key in two names for 2 separate rooms but has a common booking number. As we arrived at the resort, it seems that they do not know under such a booking number I have booked and paid for 2 rooms. So they give us only 2 welcome drinks (well it doesn’t matter to me). However, the worst part, for the 2nd room (for my 2 kids) they are giving us a room which is 1 block away (equivalent to 20-25 meters away) from the 1st room. How can it be? As I specifically mentioned in my booking that both rooms must be adjacent. We keep on pushing for the adjacent room as we know that the resort is not fully occupied. At first, they even offered me Bumbung (1st floor room) of the same block as it is downgrading room from the original booking. While waiting for the management to decide for our 2nd room, we stayed in the 1st room for about 30 minutes and finally they say it is ok to get the next door room. If we not pushing for the adjacent room, my 2 kids will be stayed quite far from us (my wife and i). Surprisingly, when they told us about getting the adjacent room, they said that they are upgrading the 2nd room, to Serambi (What??? Upgrading??) I have a proof that booked 2 same type of room, if not why should I requested the 2nd room to be adjacent to the 1st??? I do not wish to argue further with these people, thinking that I

The resort was superb. What makes it even better is their service and hospitality. Will definitely come back here again. The only downside is that there's not much things to do outside the resort which makes your entertainment confined within the resort. But we came here to relax and celebrate our anniversary so it fits our purpose.
