Leaving underwhelmed
Reviewed By adriennszlapakWe spent 3 nights here and were quite underwhelmed and disappointed. While it's understandable that Covid and the lockdowns took a toll on all hotels, the Swiss Garden Beach Resort just looks dirty and dishevelled. The private beach was not cleaned during our whole stay - empty drink bottles, masks and cigarette butts that greeted us on the first day were still there on the last. The hotel was fully booked and staff could obviously not keep up - people kept using the pools without rinsing after the beach and wearing sweatpants instead of proper swimming attire. Housekeeping never managed to clean our room properly (see pictures of what we found post cleaning). All in all, the prices they charge should warrant much better service.

Best family holiday experience to relax, enjoy, and de-stress
Reviewed By Neshall ZOur stay at Holiday Villa Cherating was the best. We booked a beach-front villa with a private pool which was very comfortable. The resort invested in refurbishment recently so you get really nice rooms and a wonderful experience. The pre-booked steamboat for dinner was delicious. The staff were friendly and always ready to help. There were plenty of activities to enjoy within the resort and 3 public pools for both adults and kids. Overall the resort was clean, lots of landscape/greenery...perfect for weddings and parties. We would definitely be going back again soon. Next we will be booking the newly built KL villa which has 4 bedrooms and perfect for 8 pax and it is the closest to sea.

TimurBay Suites by Subhome, a unique seafront vacation Suites with direct access to the famous Balok Beach that captures the true essence of coastal living. Fully furnished and equipped with an extensive list of resort-themed facilities for your indulgence.
Location and facilities are good. Let down by very bad cleanliness
Reviewed By ELAYTEERating this as a tourist on holiday. Timurbay Seafront is like an AirBnB style accommodation, not a typical hotel. A variety of different "hosts" rent out different apartments so the quality will differ. This specific review is for: A Junior Suite by Subhome - Room number Block A, Floor 3, Room 02 and booked through booking.com In summary, I would not use Subhome again, but would consider using another of the companies at the same site. When looking inside their rooms they looked a lot cleaner and better maintained. This is not a typical hotel experience, but like an airbnb. Pick up your keys and then no room service, bottled water, no wifi. They had the potential to be quite good if they just solved the CLEANLINESS issue. It had adequate furniture and furnishings for a short stay, free parking and good security on site. The location is nice and if you have a car, the restaurants, shops and town are easy to get to. The gym is quite good offering full squat racks. The massive downside is that the suite is very dirty. OVERPOWERING smell of mold/damp as the bathroom lacks proper ventilation (The wind does not suck moisture out, just blows it further into the apartment). In just two days, even clothes that remained in suitcases stink of damp Dirty footprints on the wall in the single bedroom Visibly dusty shelves and lack of cleaning under the bed, sofa etc Long womens hair all over the floors, bathroom and washing machine Washing machine stinks of damp and has not been run through a cleaning cycle Tables have stains on the surface Your feet will be black from dirt if walking in the apartment barefoot Bedding has lots of old stains on it Towel visibly used, even had a hole in it! Honestly, it looks like they just put on new sheets and towels and called it a day. Overall I would avoid subhome and I am glad we only booked for a short stay. It is hard to feel relaxed in a dirty environment. Little things to make it feel homely are also missing, e.g. a single mug for hot drinks, no forks. The layout can be a little confusing as there are two tower blocks and parking is staggered. We checked in late after staff had left so only received instructions via whatsapp in Malay. Luckily we could figure out how to get keys and where to park etc but it might be a struggle for those without mobile phones.

Amazing place, maybe not right time
Reviewed By OmVigneshWent on short trip during Eid holidays with family, 2 nights. Overall trip was good, just the place seems aged a bit and restaurant service really need improvement. Room/Chalet - the house we stayed in named Negeri Sembilan. Two bedroom and one living. Its a chalet by near the beach which I prefer as more convenient compared staying in hotel room. Room is nice, mostly working condition except main bathroom water drainage wasn't good enough. Probably it aged over time. Would really recommend an upgrade here. Living area is small but not much an issue, just AC need servicing I guess. There's small pool size probably 12" x 9", its perfect for kids as the depth around 4ft. Location: Great, just by the main federal road. Many nearby local convenient store around. There are also couple local restaurants nearby, but we had issues since its Eid holiday all were closed as majority were Muslim shops I believe. Its next to the beach and not many hotels surroundings. So beach and expect less crowd besides Holiday Villa's guess. Good place to see sunrise in the morning. There's also a large swimming pool at common area, water slides, and some fountain which kids will enjoy. Some down sides: Since it was holiday season expecting lots of local restaurant will be closed, we had challenges with meals. Decided to dine in for all meals however the service from the restaurant was poor. Long waiting time for room service or even going to restaurant itself. No buffet meals except during breakfast which is free. For dinner, we have to wait 45 mins for first item to be served and all items took an hour. On top of that the food quality is also poor considering this hotel which I believe have couple stars rating. Some food are clearly frozen items instead of fresh made - at least that what we felt and not well cooked. This could probably be the affect of long Covid-19 outbreak with manpower shortage etc.. The person who took our order was at one point in the kitchen preparing the meal. I wouldn't put in on the worker as they are trying their best, need management to step up on this.

Poor & Dirty Common Facilities.
Reviewed By Jeyen rThis is private owned apartments, the indoor apartments, room. bathroom is very clean and well taken care. Good job by the owners and caretakers. But the common area such corridors, lift is such bad shape and smelly. The lift in block B is so dirty and can seen dirty stain on the lift and smells. The corridors is not lighted well and late night is pretty creepy as well. The pool is normal and slight greenish. Beach is about 100m walking distance but when we went one of the us got stung by Jelly fish and the resort workers don't even know nearest medical facilities. Once chinese cafe by the beach but kind of pricey. If you would like to go then dont go with high expectations. If the common facilities is been improved then its great place to relax and rejuvenate.

Great for family day!
Reviewed By Arif_Ibrahim68Our extended family - 32 pax in total had our family day at this resort last weekend. We had great time here! This hotel has a number of swimming pools which the kids will surely love. It’s almost like a mini water park. The hotel area are well kept and clean. We had the hotel organised telematch games for our group at a field within the hotel compound. The hotel staffs who organised the games for us were nice, friendly and funny too. It was great fun for us! This hotel is a beachfront hotel but unfortunately, during our stay, the public beach in front of the hotel was quite dirty. Probably because of the high tides and rains. Since we are still under movement controls because of the Covid19, there’re SOPs which we have to follow but not a problem at all for us. For meals, the hotel organised banquet style serving in a private room for us. That was really nice and made a lot of difference for us. We had BBQ dinner and we were able to have our own talent show since the room is only for our group. The food served buffet style for us and it was delicious! The hotel is an old hotel but i believe it was recently refurbished. The room are spacious and very clean. But the toilet is quite basic. At the moment, the hotel is offering very, very good rates. I highly recommend this hotel for large group who would want to have team activities. Many activities can be organised here.

It is a beach Hotel, run down already
Reviewed By HabanawawiThe resort probably pass it high days. The room is bit old fashioned. Air conditioned took time to cool up. Our toilet basin tap cannot be close properly and water keep running albeit at low speed. Wasting the water bill. Parking is plenty. This is a last minute booking. 6pm book for arrival at 10:30pm. We were on the LPT highway when booking. Staffs is calling us to confirm and they wait for us to arrive. People doing the family day here. Swimming pool bit tiny and the pool bar is closed. Finding breakfast outside is easy if you have own car. There is Rapid Kuantan bus running through the main road. Beach is nice view for the sunrise. You got partial benefit of resort facilities and direct access to the beach. But paying 2x more at the Swiss Garden, I prefer this one for 1-2 nights pad.
