Bayu Emas Apartment

3.7(73)✓ Google-verified

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.
