Beachfront position and infinity pool draw families, but recent guests report significant gaps in upkeep. Overbooking practices, broken appliances (microwave, washing machine, dryer), dirty walls, and insects appear in recent one-star reviews. Landlord reportedly does not respond to maintenance requests or offer alternatives when apartments do not match bookings. Five-star reviewers praise the seafront location and pool, though an older guest noted furniture and building condition as worn. Since 70% of reviews are five-star, satisfaction varies sharply. Location alone may hold customer loyalty despite service and cleanliness complaints. Booking through Booking.com has triggered disputes over apartment allocation.

Located right on Batu Ferringhi's waterfront, this beachfront homestay delivers spacious, clean rooms with sea views and an infinity pool. Two five-star reviews praise the upmarket design and convenient spot for families or friend groups, though one guest noted the pool area could use more deck chairs.

Reviewers prize this beachfront property for its pool, modern spaces, and sea views just steps from the beach. Location and cleanliness earn consistent praise, though some units arrive without essentials like towels or full kitchen gear, and expectations of higher-end comfort don't always match what's provided.
