  WORST PLACE CALLED RESORT

  I am not a picky traveller and have been to many hotel and resorts in my life time. Having said that Im totally disappointed with this resort. Dusty, dirty rooms, aged and non-existent customer service plus only two restaurants open. Staff: Generally not attentive and ignorant, struggle to fulfil the most basic needs or tasks when requested. It appears clearly that the staffs are not trained at all or have the skills to attend even when told clearly what we need. The managers are hardly seen perhaps the reason for staffs to be left not guided. Pool: The pool was extremely dirty, there was slimy black moss and dried leaves at the edges left. Clear sign of no vacuuming nor cleaning. Food and restaurants: The food served here was absolutely a disaster. Youre better off heading into town to eat because whether it is the coffee house or poolside restaurant ; the food was tasteless and oily. Keeps me wonder if the food was cooked by trained chefs! The breakfast was serving cheap stuffs! No match to even 2/3star. What a shame. Rooms: I booked a P.Water Chalet suppose to have an ocean view but was facing the Public beach. What a cheat?! Besides the room was the same as the water chalet. I had to request a different room due to the loud music from the beach but was not granted. The pillows were very lumpy, the beds are uncomfortably and the lighting is in the room was really bad. Lamp shade was broken and fused lights not replaced. The furniture has marks of extensive damage,you may find hair on the pillows from previous guests. BALCONY. The balcony and the lazy chair were full of birds droppings. NOT cleaned for age. Walking on the balcony was a total risk as the railing was shaky with loose nails. Overall impression: Do not stay here. No idea how this resort is still in business in COVID times considering the dirty rooms, mediocre food and the worst customer service. A resort that I will strike off from my future holiday list for sure. Spend your hard earned money wisely. This was by far the worst resort I have ever had the displeasure of staying at in my entire life. I even took sometime speaking to other guest and YES they re-affirmed that the EVERYTHING here have gone down the hill.I do not recommend this place to anyone. It pains me to give a review this bad, but...it's the truth. *shrugs*

  Stay Far Far Away

  Pictures online looked gorgeous. However upon arrival you can tell the hotel is a little tired. We came here with another couple and their kids to have a little respite from the city. Check in was ok. Like previous reviewers, we waited close to 20 minutes to get checked in. We were given tickets for breakfast and lounge access. So its like going to the state fair, a coupon for every ride. Shouldnt this be done through a hotel guests system? Provide your room number and everything pulls up? Breakfast was very disappointing. Theres no egg station. We ordered an omelette, it came plain. There were no fresh juices, orange juice was from a concentrate. More like a cordial. I understand due to C19 SOPs are needed, but you can still prepare food without compromising on quality. It seriously felt like glorified canteen food. We stayed at the 1 bedroom Water Villa. Based on the reviews, the GM has been apologising consistently to countless previous guests, with promises of change and better training for staff. Unfortunately this has not been forthcoming during our stay. Trash were still placed out in front of the pathways, leftover room service plates were all over the pathways, the room fans were squeaky loud, etc. For 1K a night, you are charging the same as other 5-star resorts with a Junior Suite. Similar price bracket as St. Regis, Ritz-Carlton, Pangkor Laut and Tanjung Jara. Unfortunately the level of care and quality is way off the mark. This hotel is officially rated 4-star. Rooms were tired. We found an old underwear hanging on the shower head. Toilets were leaking. Massive scaling in the shower area. Broken blinds. Doesnt really make you feel pampered. Current pool SOP of the hotel is you need to book for pool usage in 30-minute slots. During check-in, Duty Manager Mr. Rozi mentioned that we can book to use the pool by dialling 6. We did, but the operator told us on the phone pool bookings can only be made in person at the reception. So we ended just going to the pool, and we were let in. While the kids were in the pool, we had a large amount of hotel guests without the proper pool attire in the pool. T-shirts and shorts in the pool?Also same in the adult pool area. We left shortly after. Avi-Lounge was a big let down, for us at least. 2 drinks only per day. Dont forget your ticket ! Not quite the club lounge at a Holiday Inn or Courtyard, 4-star rated hotel equivalents. The lounge has a spectacular view, but unspectacular service. I thought the general practice for club lounges is you get unlimited drinks during specific hours? Wi-Fi was horrible. So if you are planning to do a little work on your laptop while on vacation, forget it. And it wasnt just our room, our friends next door were having the same issue with connectivity. In this day and age, a stable Wi-Fi connection is the most basic amenity to any hotel. What a massive fail. The only redeeming experience for us during our stay is the petting zoo. The animals look healthy and its a great activity for the kids. Theres a public beach really close to the hotel. At night during low tide, the locals can just walk over and hunt for little crabs, and they can easily come up right to the villa. Imagine the general public can come right underneath the villa, and theres no hotel security to protect the guests. Not quite safe is it? If you are by the villas, it is very noisy due to the proximity of the public beach. You can hear people screaming playing beach football at 11 pm at night. This went all the way up to 3am. Not quite the respite we had in mind. And no, the hotel management did not do anything about it. Ive been to 50-year old local hotels here in Malaysia, but the property is kept up-to-date with proper maintenance, and most importantly the hotel staff is the heart of any successful hotel. Unfortunately we felt this was nonexistent in this hotel. This is the longest review Ive posted here in TripAdvisor, for good reason. We dont need the GM to apologise again like the others, just do better. We still had a blast in PD with our friends, but we wont be in a hurry to come back anytime soon. Actually we wont be back. At the present state, we feel we can find better value elsewhere.

  Nice environment but Terrible Social Distancing

  Friendly staff, well kept environment, decent service. For a room that accommodates 3 person, we only found 1 pair of slippers and 1 bathrobe. Breakfast spread is decent, but there is absolutely no adherence to SOP. The crowd was poorly managed, seating not spaced out proper. Guards at the hotel have the tendency to greet men but not the ladies. Pure sexism demonstrated in plain sight.

  Drop in standards

  Spend 2 nights in a water chalet as the price has dropped compared to some years back when I was here. I have to say there is a stark difference in the general condition of the hotel. It has aged, without proper upkeep and quality has really dwindled. Room was dirty and you can wipe dirt on the wall/furniture, sheets are stained and walls are peeled. Worse, it rained heavily one night and the roof was leaking - fortunately the drip was on the side of the room and not above us. The wifi is almost non-usable with unstable and slow connection. However we enjoyed the adults only pool which was relatively spacious to swim in and the beach access, which was really convenient. Food was merely ok, nothing to shout about. Still I think there are not many nice hotels in PD and this place is probably one of the better ones

  Unbelievably Atrocious Stay @ Avillion

  We came here hoping that the negative reviews were just coming from demanding people or isolated incidents, but we were sadly disappointed for not taking those reviews seriously. The customer service standards we terrible. Reception desk staff was utterly stone cold, greeting or a little smile was the last thing you can hope for. The water chalet we stayed we was super dirty. The stair case to the rooms was in a mess with trashes. The wooden floor in the chalet was sandy, my white socks turned black just in a less than an hour. The mirror was full of tooth paste left over from previous guest. The balcony was in deplorable state. The room emits musky stuffy smell. We felt at ease staying out of the room than being in. Towels were old grey with lose threads and works best like sand paper. Spending one night at this hotel will cure you and youll wake early, giddy at the prospect of leaving this hole. Turning the air conditioning on will transport you to a nasa rocket launch. The shower is an icy trickle. WIFI connection was extremely poor, just a NEW discovery for this resort. They were still on trial and error phase! The biggest joke we heard off! The worst aspect however is the fact that the walls are paper thin and instead of sleeping you will listen to tvs, arguments, doors slamming and children crying all night. Breakfast is the final slap in the face, worst we had ever for so called 5star property. Crusty dishes. Social distancing were absolutely a mess. We were not surprise if they are summoned by the authorities for not complying to the countrys by law on this epidemic. At the end of the day, for the price we paid the least we could expect would be a comfortable night sleep and hot shower which was also denied. Please do yourself a favour, stay away period!
