What recent reviews say

A low-cost private pool villa on the Batu Ferringhi beachfront with bicycles, KTV, and sea views. Most guests report severe contact and refund issues with the host. Handful of reviewers praise the space and amenities, but more warn of scam deposits, broken furniture, and unresponsive management.

Based on limited recent reviews, so treat this as low-confidence.

Private Beach-front Haven by StayCo - Seaview Pool, KTV & Speaker System, Beach Air Loft, Private Beach Access and Beyond!

3.0(25)

The property's beachfront location and large floor space appeal to families seeking a group retreat, but cleanness and maintenance are inconsistent and sometimes very poor. Recent guests report sticky floors, broken door locks, non-functioning windows, faulty speakers, and sewage odours from bathrooms. Older reviews mention staff members Mr Haris and Mr Kumanan as responsive when notified of issues, but the property owner has refused refund requests. The pool is a portable structure filled by garden hose, not the premium amenity photos suggest.

Bayu Emas is a beachfront apartment complex in Batu Ferringhi where the gap between promise and delivery depends heavily on which unit you book. Some guests report immaculate, well-equipped rooms steps from the beach; others encounter filthy shared spaces, dusty floors, and pest problems. The building exterior is consistently described as dated and abandoned-looking, and an undisclosed RM10 nightly parking fee frustrates visitors.
