This is a private beach only for hotel guests. So you can't visit unless you are also staying at the Taaras hotel. The beach is very clean, white sand and plenty of shaded reclining chairs for guests to relax and order drinks and snacks. The hotel has also put up a couple of swings for people to Instagram the beach. The water isn't as clear as it used to be when berjaya first opened this resort, but it remains relatively clean and beautiful to swim in. there are also some bouncy floating castle things for kids to play in. The only thing that is a bit of a problem with this beach is the presence of sand flies, so use insect repellent.
There is a jetty nearby on the beach itself. If you are going for boating excursions, that makes it very convenient. And turtle Bay is right next to the hotel if you are keen on kayaking over to see it. Be warned though, turtle Bay gets very crowded during the weekends...

As for service, is nothing short of 5⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Personally I would like to shout out to En Saiful from the Asean Cafe, you have made our stay special with your warm and proactive service. A gem in...
Read moreResort is beautiful. Food (breakfast buffet) is also good. Most remarkable features are the beach and the water sport facilities.
However housekeeping and room amenities need significant improvement. Room cleanliness is the most expected from acclaimed 5 star resort. My lcd panel was malfunctioned. Glad that the technician on duty managed to swap with a working one.
Another one major blunder was misinformation by a hotel staff manning the lobby area about squid spearing charges. The staff mentioned per pax is RM250, but actually their poster on display stated only RM150. I was planning to book a session of 4 or 5 pax but since I was misinformed with the higher price, I cancelled my plan. This is evident how knowledge and information management could land you business...
