Guest Reviews
- Verified traveler (8/5): Honest feedback - Room: room is clean. Bed is comfortable. I stayed for 3 nights, the first 2 nights had no hot water. Only on the 3rd night hot water is available. Toilet basin is clogged. Facilities: gym condition is dated. Aircon not working, later they provide a fan. Machine condition not good. Food is ok.
- MASAKAZU (6/5): - シャワーのお湯が出ませんでした プールは綺麗ですが、施設は古くなってきています
- Dr. Bhakta Hari (8/5): - It is an excellent and quite scenic place. The staffs were extremely good and very very helpful and the manager as well.
- deBeerJohan (2/5): NOT WORTH IT! - Stunning location. No beach though. And that is it. Hotel is not maintained at all, bordering on being unsafe. Rooms dirty, equipment not in good order and not working. Staff are as help-full as they can be. But obviously limited by bad management. I asked a staff member if they are happy to work there. They could not answer me. Not recommended. This is becoming an embarrassment for the Sarawak state. Stay in Bintulu or Miri and travel if you have to work in and around Samalaju Industrial Park.
- Abdul Haafidz (6/5): - It is a resort accomodation. Chalet was a bit not well maintained, musty smell, dirty blinds, cabinets. can improve on that part.
- Budakampung (6/5): Relaxing environment - Located by the sea inside the Samalaju industry park, spacious room and compound, all rooms come with window/view. Relaxing environment with sea view and breeze, but no beach. Cleanliness of the room need to be improved especially bathroom wall and shower glass panel. Weak phone signal and internet connection.
- ANUAR (8/5): - The hotel is nice and location is wonderful, near the rocky beach. Nevertheless the beach is off limit because of rough sea. Chalet was spacious but some of the amenities like microwave was not working. The cleanliness could be better.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Beautiful n comfort but i think should extra mattress
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Quiet and privacy
- Émilie (8/5): - The hotel is too far from Bintulu and we re not informed clearly about that. The food is nice and generous. The pool clean. Building too old seems like dormitory. The people are very nice.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Nice hotel for business traveler - Room looks new and breakfast was fine. Generally a great hotel for business purpose. Hotel is located in an industrial area and not suitable for tourist
- gbk (6/5): - 생필품 구매를 위한 편의점이 없어 불편하였음. 외딴곳이라 주위에 물품을 구매할 만한 마트등이 없어 모두 준비해 가야할것 같음. 해변가 산책로가 없어 아쉬움이 많았음.
- jetsettterqueen (2/5): Lousy event planning - Stayed at the hotel for few days for business. When we arrived, the staff did not welcome us with a smile. Requested room amenities, but it was very slow response. Few hours only to pass one item. Cleanliness of the room very poor also. Overall, no need to come here. Not worth the effort to drive here. Better go to Miri instead. Will never come back to this hotel, ever again.
- hemletk (8/5): Samalaju Resort - Hidden Gem - it was my first time there so I was a bit wary of how to go there. the signage along the road does help but it might be a problem for first timer if it is dark. hotel is well kept. The staff are friendly. room is spacious. i got one facing the pool. which is nice. the sounds of the waves are therapeutic. you want a quiet place to unwind. this is the place. the food is delicious although there is not much choice for breakfast/lunch.
- taffycheung (8/5): Pleasant stay - Hotel is located inside the samalaju industrial area so we had to clear security on the way. Hotel was pretty good - new, generally well maintained. Pool was clean and decent food from the restaurant. Cable tv was down and their technician was on hand to resolve it pretty quick. Buy some snacks before coming in, there are no shops in the vicinity.
- Boldscape (8/5): Nice Resort, Friendly atmosphere, Great food - Nice spacious room, very comfortable, great resort nice location right on the coast. The only disappointing thing was there was no access to the the beach, signs up saying no access due to crocodiles !!!
- Verified traveler (8/5): Perfect for relaxation - The resort was was well-maintained. Staff were friendly too. It's about an hour drive from anything though so make sure you've got all your supplies/ snacks before checking in. The view of the sunset from the pool area is beyond amazing.
- banhuato (8/5): Stopover enroute from Mukah back to Brunei - Two of us siblings with our spouses and two children were on our way back from Mukah to Brunei. As we were about to reach the Samalaju junction towards Miri, and earlier we needed to find a rest room to answer nature's call, I suggested divert to Samalaju resort (I visited this resort before). Upon arrival, first thing obviously visited the rest room; after a look around and enquiring about the rates, we decided to stay the night instead of continuing our journey to Miri. We checked in two chalets. Each of us ordered different types of food - I must say was excellent and tasty and presentable. Evidently, there is no shops or mall to wonder around, but we were satisfied with the KTV. Only one comment - the chalet that we were checked in has strong ordor of sewage... I believe coming from the scuppers in the shower room. Both doors had to be closed to prevent the strong ordor into the bedroom. Hope the management can do something to overcome the problem. Otherwise, I must say this resort is a good place to breakway from stress and relax.
- Rich47048 (6/5): OK for business stay - Nice facility by the ocean, but signs warned not to actually go down the slope to the water. Room was spacious and clean, and everything worked with the exception of the shower drain the first night. This was fixed promptly, so that's a plus. Desk was good for working; plenty of electrical outlets for charging etc. Toward end of stay there was a slight odor of sewer back up in the mornings - not detectable in evening. Restaurant was weak spot; staff does not seem to understand how to keep food hot. Arrived for breakfast daily at 630 (600 opening time) and most hot items were already cold including a big pile of "omelets" apparently made all at once and meant to last several hours. Was happy to arrive a few days when no omelets had been made, and I was able to rouse the staff to make some fresh ones. At dinner, cold French fries arrived next to freshly grilled meat. Restaurant service OK but not up to standard of the rest of the staff (front desk, laundry, security, etc.) which was excellent.
- Verified traveler (6/5): - Our living room door lock no in good condition. Cant lock properly.
- Verified traveler (10/5): A place for a peaceful mind. - Amazing place to relax and forget about works. Nice, clean and beautiful view from my room.
- NABAJIT280 (8/5): Great Resort Hotel - A very good resort hotel in Samalaju Industrial area for a shorter trip, far away from Bintulu city. The hotel provide package tours to different tourist attraction destinations. Its located nearby sea and so will get a relaxing mood in this hotel rooms, Well maintained resort with great hospitality.
- 970anastasiaw (10/5): Excellent place for short~escape - Been stressful from previous daily hardwork, was suggested to stay one night staycation by my husband together with our new family member to this excellent view location for my short escape from real life. Its located nearby the sea, so windy is one of its selling point, plus, you wont miss the great swimming pool in the center with bali style seatings ard it. We happened to choose Villa styled bedroom with living and enjoy our in room service dinner. I would say its the best experience after i return from singapore life.
- cjowett (6/5): Business hotel - This resort is feels like it caters mostly for businesses operating in the area. It is very isolated and there is little in the way of children's entertainment other than the swimming pool. It is very modern and clean. The staff are very friendly and the food was quite good. A potential stop over point between Bintulu and Miri
- Villagetree (8/5): Samalaju Resort Hotel in Samalaju Industrial Park - Good, nice pool, but nothing to sightseeing near the hotel. No entertainment. You can have just meal in restaurant of Hotel(only one). Nice view of seaside and challet privite house is good with cheap price. but sometimes there is malfuction of the gate of your house. actually it's not a resort. just hotel. not recommended strongly for the sightseeing. This hotel is for the business of industrial park. Price is near 100 USD.
- 890richardv (4/5): Only for business - I visited this hotel because it is very short traveling from the hotel to my job. Rooms are good and clean! Pool is closed because maintenance. Lounge bar is not open. Breakfast is ok. In this area is really nothing to do.
- zeekaaay (2/5): A very bad experience. - This hotel will truly made you look like a begger. The buffet breakfast served in extremely small portion. When the food is served, it only last for less than a minute until everyone rushing to get their food. PLEASE AVOID FROM VISITING HERE.
