5-Star ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Absolutely impeccable stay! This place is super brand new, spotless, and unbelievably classy from the moment you walk in.
Huge space with a big balcony overlooking the awesome sea view! It made us all smile waking up to it! The home is simple yet beautiful and immaculately clean down to every detail.
The toilet? Super classy and hotel-level luxe. In fact, one of our kids said, It’s like a classy hotel in a homestay!” and they were 100% right!
If you want space, style, and that five-star feel without the hotel price tag, BOOK THIS NOW! My family and I can’t wait to return and will definitely book this again, and check out all their 3- 4 bedrooms units!
Definitely a gem! Don’t miss it!
Hotel is conveniently located right above Southkey Mall. With entrance directly into mall. The room with king bed still felt spacious enough for 2 pax and ceiling height made the room feel extra large. I personally prefer wood flooring but carpet might work for some. Bathroom towels were well used but clean. Sat breakfast was very busy so recommend a very early or late timing to avoid crowds. City view room was quiet and bright.Generally a comfortable and convenient stay.

Enjoy this for a short stay with family and young toddlers.
Stated check in at 3pm but when we checked in, room already available, probably it was a Friday. Staff are friendly & polite, with good service. We booked without breakfast because keen to try the foods around but I believe the breakfast also worth it if book together just around RM60 more for 3 pax.
Gym is big with almost everything in it! They have pool for adults to play, but no entry below 16 year old.
The only minus points is the Dino Waterpark within the hotel requires additional payment at RM20 per pax for those above 3 year old. It is not expensive but we thought everything were inclusive.
Location wise really convenient as you can get almost everything downstairs - even the groceries in Lotus supermarket!

I was very satisfied with my stay this time! I originally booked a queen room, but to my surprise and delight, the hotel thoughtfully upgraded me to two rooms for free. It was a wonderful surprise and truly touched me.
The rooms were clean and tidy, and the space was very comfortable. The overall atmosphere was relaxing. The staff's service attitude was excellent, and they handled things efficiently, making the entire check-in process very smooth.
This experience exceeded my expectations. I will definitely come back again if I have the chance and will also recommend it to my friends!

Mixed Experience – Good Service Recovery but Initial Handling Could Be Better
I recently stayed at Holiday Villa Johor Bahru City Centre and had a mixed experience.
For the first two nights, we suspected the room was not properly cleaned as both my husband and I experienced continuous sneezing throughout the stay. I reported this to the front desk after the first night, but no action was taken or escalated. Unfortunately, we had to endure a second uncomfortable night before I raised the issue again to the duty manager.
I must commend the duty manager for her prompt and decisive action — she arranged an immediate room change, which made a significant difference. This level of service recovery was appreciated. However, it is unclear why the initial concern was not escalated earlier by the front desk, which could have prevented unnecessary discomfort.
On a positive note, when I fell sick during the stay, the front desk staff were thoughtful enough to send porridge and warm water to my room — a kind gesture that I truly appreciated.
The hotel’s location is very convenient, and the breakfast selection varies daily, which is a plus. A special mention to the egg station staff — they were consistently friendly and attentive, handling every request with a smile even during busy periods.
Check-out was smooth and efficient.
Overall, while there were some lapses in initial handling, the service recovery and certain staff members’ efforts stood out.
Overall the room is clean but dont expect the room is big. The only things surprised me is the breakfast , taste all is nice and more things to choose . If for short trip in JB , I will choose this hotel again because of price reasonable and service is good , staffs are all friendly.

This hotel is located in the heart of Johor Bahru, just a few minutes' walk from the customs checkpoint and the train station. There are plenty of restaurants and malls nearby, and Jonker Street is also very close. The room facilities are complete, and the large window offers an expansive view. The cleanliness is also good. However, prices in Johor Bahru are quite high for Malaysia. A hotel of this caliber without breakfast would likely be cheaper in other cities.
The room is very nice. We like that we can cast from our phone.
The check in was delayed by 2 hours. The staff was very helpful. He gave us all complimentary breakfast. But the breakfast was bad. Too much processed food - chicken nuggets, ham ,etc. too much sugar - donuts, soya milk was too sweet, fruit drinks were too sweet, except for the fresh orange, cucumber and pineapple juice. Those were great. It's definitely not worth the price for our family. St Giles, Opero, Holiday Inn Express at Komptar, Hilton all have better and healthier breakfast.
The swimming pool has too many sharp corners near the children area.
We arrived at 1pm and the unit was ready for check in which was awesome. During inspection of the unit found the flooring in the living room was broken and it would move if u stepped on it. This was simply covered by a carpet. Took a video and sent to their whatsapp but was not acknowledged. Then came the common toilet right beside the living room. Firstly had a very foul smell, the shower wasnt draining well and the bidet was broken and made my pants all wet when i turned it on. The smell got worse throughout our stay and we just choose not to use the common toilet at all. They only give 1 access card but u can request one more from the lobby. But makesure ask them if the card can be used for carpark entrance. After check out we left our bags at the lobby and was chrged rm10/bag for storage while we went last minute shopping. Oh also u cant access the mall after 10pm. So if youre taking a cab makesure u drop off at the residents instead of mall entrance
Very Good

AAnonymous UserFacilities: Relatively new. Parking is free, but you need to go to the front desk to swipe your TNG card every time you leave the car park.
Cleanliness: Very clean.
Environment: The hotel's interior is excellent. However, the area in front of the hotel feels a bit like a construction site, so be careful when walking.
Service: There's a young man at the front desk who speaks Chinese.
The breakfast buffet is top-notch, with an incredibly wide selection. My only regret is having just one stomach. There were so many local dishes I didn't even know how to combine them!

YYL_SnoopyIf you like a quiet, cosy place that give you a resort feel, then this hotel will be a good choice.
Initially booked this hotel is because wanting to try the Gem Spa, as previously I tried their other outlet which was very good. But sadly due to time constraints, we didn't manage to go the spa.
What I like about this hotel is, there is a hard rock within the hotel. So if you do not want to travel 15mins out, then you can actually chill and eat there.
The room is cosy but sadly that even I had booked the sea view, the view was not directly. I was allocated a room that faced the road and far right is the sea. But the plus point is I have a bathtub.
Overall the service is good, breakfast is average and the occupancy of the hotel is high but you do not feel crowded.

CCandace KThe gym, though small, was well-equipped with towels and bottled water. The kids' play area clearly hadn't been tidied up after use, and no one seemed to be cleaning it. It was also incredibly hot in there, with no AC remote in sight. As for the breakfast buffet, it had everything you'd expect, but the only downside was the lack of staff to seat or guide guests. On our first morning, we had to stand next to other tables and wait for a spot to open up 😅. Our room had a QR code for requests, and when we used it, staff were very quick to help with any issues. The only minor flaw was some dust in the room; I actually felt a bit itchy the first night. We were in the East Wing, which honestly felt more like a serviced apartment than a hotel, yet they didn't even provide dish soap 😅😅.
TTzieqyI stayed together with my husband and child. The self check in was smooth. They provided very clear instructions for the check in. The room was clean and the pool view from the room was great. I love that the balcony is quite spacious. Their service is also good. Very prompt response from them.
The feedback I have is if possible, to get a parking lot that is nearer to the lobby entrance at level 5. And for the common room, maybe can rearrange the drawer cabinet away from the power socket because the current position, the cabinet is covering the socket thus we're unable to charge while in the room.
But these are minor issues. The most important thing is that I had a comfortable stay and it really is a great accommodation.
TTzeXuanOur stay at Sheraton Desaru Coast Resort was absolutely delightful. The hotel boasts a beautiful environment with a modern yet comfortable design. Our room was clean and spacious. While it's a bit of a walk from the beach, the price was truly a steal. The staff were friendly and professional, making us feel right at home. The breakfast selection was extensive and of good quality. Overall, the atmosphere was very relaxing, perfect for families or a short getaway.
JJaymie SooThe good:
comfortable bed, decent cleanliness, working aircon, game console was cool, nice view at #48.
The bad:
Host expect you to contact them on the day else no sound no pic.
Sent a series of pictures and videos, shock to see they asked for deposit and my passport photo as part of their requirements. I’m not comfortable with that.
Drivers beware: This unit located at B1-2 is damn troublesome. I had to park outside the gantry and walked all the way to the end of the building (approx 200m one way) to get the card. The guard weren’t familiar with such arrangement had to call another guard over to assist in order to let me into the mailroom to retrieve the access card.
After that had to walk all the way back again to the entrance. When I drove to the gantry, the access card didn’t work, guard had to come over again to assist. End up found out it’s because the previous user did not “tap out” so we can’t “tap in”.
The wayfinding in the carpark is worse ever. Don’t know where to go up, don’t know where to exit. Turn round and round the entire carpark to find and realised it’s in the middle of nowhere.
Now for the accommodation itself, it’s decent. Towels were provided. No toothbrush provided but 8 combs provided instead (pic). The cups were damn disgusting (pic).
Overall will not return as the carpark and checkin experience was really a huge turnoff.
GGuest UserIt was a fabulous short stay, the room was very spacious with a large bathroom too. There's lots of cupboard space for storage, bedding is great, soft duvet and pillows. The shower jet is strong, the walls and floor are very clean, the hotel just opened about half a year ago. Everything works. The location is far from the centre, no decent restaurants or shopping areas nearby unless taking a Grab or hotel shuttle to the city center. SKS shopping city attached to the hotel is known to be opening soon in May 2026. The staff are all very friendly and helpful. The breakfast is nice, with a large selection of very fresh food. The swimming pool is beautiful with lukewarm temperature even at evening.

AahshanStayed at Sand & Sandals Resort in Desaru and it was such a relaxing and enjoyable experience. The resort has a spacious, tropical vibe with big rooms, comfy beds, and a nice balcony to unwind. The pool area is great for chilling, and the beach is just a short walk away — perfect for morning strolls and golden hour photos.
Service was friendly, and the location made it easy to get around for food, activities, and day trips. It’s a solid choice if you want a fuss-free, beachside stay that feels calm and refreshing.
Overall, a pleasant resort for couples, families, or a girls’ trip getaway. 🌊💛
