Guest reviews for Rambutan Resort

5 out of 5

Beautiful property with excellent, great-communicating staff. We pulled up in front and I ran in for directions to parking, and Reception was ready with a map and very clear, clearly-well-rehearsed instructions. Parking entry involves several turns, and there was a clear sign at every point that you started to say to yourself, "Now where is that turn?" The whole stay was like that, needs anticipated and well-prepared for. It's a lovely property and very well-run. Highly recommended.

I liked the restaurants and location. Parking was a nightmare and because the rooms are around the pool it was noisy.

Someone previously built a nice hotel, but now it’s rundown and particularly dirty. Lobby reception area is filthy and in a poor state. Staff simply don’t care boarding on rude. Room are clean but extremely basic. It’s like a glorified backpackers and there are many better hotels for your money.

Really loved the atmosphere and ambience. Lovely pool and plenty of outdoor space to relax. Great service, as we were staying a few nights, our room was thoughtfully located In a quiet area away from the bar/restaurant areas Lovely meals, pizzas, good value specials, including the $8.50 egg and bacon burger and hot drink. Great pool, great location. Overall a wonderful stay and we would definitely return and recommend. The only negatives were: As an avid coffee drinker, my husband found the coffee disappointing. Our room was a little small. Could do with more hangers.

Very noisy at night with people walking up and down the hall/path outside rooms yelling, laughing and knocking on doors/windows from 11:30pm to 5:30am. At 7:00pm we decided we would have a drink at the bar located within the hotel but were told we were unable to as we did not have a booking, even though we had a room booking. We were not advised upon check in that a booking was required. We were told by the bar staff we could drink in our rooms only. After a sleepless night we thought we would have breakfast downstairs, after waiting 40 minutes we asked where our order was, only to be told that our order had been misplaced with no real apology. Really disappointing experience.
