This property is not so user friendly for disable people. I have booked a family suite room unfortunately it is not suitable for disable people so i need to upgrade the room to Villa which cost me almost 40% more. The resort was really rundown i dont feel it is worth it for the cost i have paid. The good thing about this resort is that we have a private beach and only less than 5 minutes walk to the clean beach...except need to be careful with Jellyfish...and thanks to the staff who provided a kind help to my dad who is on wheelchair and thanks to Dhiana for organizing a surprise decoration in the room for my mom.

The landscaping not well maintain. My son's was bite by the centipede while dinner at their restaurant. The centipide was dropped from the ceiling and bite my son's neck. No mineral water provided in the room. However i would like to thank you for fullfill my request by decorating my room with flowers and baloon for my wedding anniversary. I hope the management will maintain the hotel well. Dont let the hotel die. Dilapidated. Needs new set of painting and maintenance of landscaping.

Dinner by the beach
The place is nice. My room facing swimming pool and nearby to private beach. Food is nice. Dont have to eat outside. Dinner by the beach with delicious cuisine. Swimming pool is huge and clean and not too deep for children to swim. Room rate doesnt include breakfast buffet so extra cost to spent. You can order from room and delivery is provided. Paint of the building looks old should be repainted to preserve the looks.

Awesome Stay!
Cherating was AMAZING. Stayed 2 nights here & we truly enjoyed ourselves. We were warmly welcomed upon arriving. Checking in was very swift. Staffs were friendly & smiling. We were brought to our "villa" & our son loved the space as he could run around (after shifting some furnitures). However we didn't like how the tv was located. It was facing the mini sofa & not the bed. So we couldn't lay on the bed to watch tv unlike other hotels. So boring. Perhaps the resort can consider relocating the tv position. The pool was good. We truly love the clean & beautiful beach! Our aircon was not cold & the toilet flush could not be used. After giving feedback, the maintenance team acted immediately on it. Thank you for the fast response! Everything in the resort was good except for the landscapes. Definitely need immediate attention to the plants & flowers. It will definitely change the resort feel.

Hotel is old and not worth for the price.
There is nothing much to do around that area, hotel is old and not dirty, you don't feel the price you paid is wort it.

''ENJOYBLE''
Always enjoyed our trips to Cherating, Pahang. Booked a Superior room online with Expedia with good rates. Suprised but happily accepted the Deluxe room upgrade. The hotel not so busy probably due to the Ramadan fasting month. We did enjoy the Buffet Buka Puasa since having friends over. Sahur meals was ample as we requested for room service. Did not use the swimming pool though which was well kept and clean.

Nice maintained resort
It has been a while since our last trip to Cherating Pahang. The journey from Kuala Lumpur was smooth with clear road signs. Pantai Cherating has retained its charm and the beach kept quite clean. We had booked a Superior room but was upgraded to a Deluxe room. Thank you Miss Diana and Miss Shima for the kind gesture. We were shown the renovated Garden Villas which are modern and comfortable. Would say it is a popular choice with many guest seen enjoying the swimming pool. Will surely consider choosing the Garden Villa on our next visit. Thank you again to all staff for making our stay pleasant.

A bad hotel for family holidays
Terrible experience when you can hear next door clearly through the non-sound proof door in between rooms. Making this experience worst would be shower with less pressure and TV with lousy channels. Also felt very frustrated when other guests keep smoking at swimming area and no action taken by the hotel.

Took a garden villa at very last minute booking. The pictures are very promising and clean but the actual room are not the exact you get. Old sofa, old bed, old toilet with stains and you see ants crawling in the room everywhere. Breakfast was ok, and the environment was good, near to beach and you hear sea breezing walking along the beach.
