Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
Pelangi Beach Resort is often praised for its spacious rooms, comfortable amenities, and the direct beach access, allowing guests to easily enjoy the sandy shores. Many appreciate the crystal clear pool, the availability of a gym, and the convenience of being within walking distance to restaurants. While the rooms are generally spacious, some guests have found the furnishings could benefit from modernization, but the overall experience and access to Cenang center via the beach makes it a relaxed and peaceful place.

Comfortable Stay

warm welcomedelicious platterwarm send-offbasic shower
I appreciated the warm welcome from the staff. Their kindness was nice. The executive chef, Muhd Saleh Semihan, personally brought us a delicious salmon platter one evening. Hasril ensured our transport was on time upon departure and gave us a warm send-off. I am grateful for the excellent service I received.
The lack of facilities available before check-in and after check-out was inconvenient. A very basic single shower was available but without amenities. The lounge lacked air conditioning , made it difficult to relax while waiting for my flight.

Underwhelming stay. Improvements needed

good locationdust layerdirty supplies
The location was good, as it was right on the beach. That's a definite plus.
The room was not clean. I saw a thick layer of dust on every surface. i called about it, and someone fixed it. It was not a good first impression. the cleaning staff used a dirty mop and broom too. also i heard noise from neighbors all night.

the grounds were beautiful and the food at the restaurant was reasonably priced.
the sink in my room was blocked, inconvenient. there were also many flies in the room, despite requests to address the issue. the balcony doors did not have proper seals, and this made it easy for the flies to enter
