What our guests says about facilities

The hotel offers amenities for your comfortable stay and unforgettable experiences

Clean and Comfy

The room I stayed in at Philea Resort & Spa was immaculate. It had both a bathtub and a shower, which I found quite luxurious. The amenities like bottled water, a coffee maker, and a small fridge were very convenient. I especially appreciated that the air conditioning worked well, keeping the room cool and comfortable throughout my stay. Definitely a good experience!

Serene Pool Environment

The swimming pool was fantastic! It was spacious and clean, making it an ideal spot to relax. I spent a lot of time lounging by the pool, and even though it had a few leaves from nearby trees, it didn't detract from the experience. I also loved the concept of a manmade waterfall nearby; it added a nice touch of serenity to the setting. A perfect escape from my busy routine!

Delicious Breakfast

Breakfast at the resort was good! They offered a simple yet tasty spread; I particularly enjoyed the nasi lemak and mee goreng. The meal was a great way to start the day. Even though the options weren't extensive, the quality was impressive and satisfying. I appreciated the local flavors represented in the breakfast menu.

Well-Equipped Bathroom

I really liked the bathroom in my chalet. It was not only clean but also well-equipped with both a bathtub and shower. It felt spacious and provided a relaxing environment. Having amenities like fresh towels and premium toiletries made my stay even more enjoyable. The overall cleanliness gave me peace of mind to relax after a long day.

The resort has a serene and natural atmosphere with beautiful surroundings, perfect for nature lovers. While the staff were friendly and the buggy service was excellent, the overall experience was marred by several issues. The dining options, particularly the breakfast, were quite disappointing, and there were problems with room maintenance, including noise and cleanliness issues. Despite the potential of the location, significant improvements are needed in both the food quality and the upkeep of the facilities.

My stay at this hotel was frustrating, primarily due to poor service and cleanliness issues. While the exterior of the resort is charming, the interior left much to be desired.

My stay at the resort was a mix of beautiful surroundings but disappointing services and facilities. While the outdoor environment was lovely and ideal for nature lovers, the room had significant cleanliness and maintenance issues. It was a real letdown considering the room rates, especially with the limited dining options and poor service I encountered.

The staff was friendly enough, but they lacked the training to effectively manage guest requests. Some requests felt ignored, which was quite frustrating.

Location

The resort is quite far from central Melaka, which makes it challenging to get around, especially if you rely on Grab services. It could be ideal for those seeking a peaceful retreat away from the hustle and bustle.

I found the resort to have a charming, natural ambiance, with log chalets surrounded by trees providing a unique experience. However, the access to the resort was a bit tricky, and the noise from nearby festivities disrupted the otherwise peaceful atmosphere. The service could also use some improvements in efficiency.

The log chalets were cozy but felt cramped, and I noticed the presence of some leftover clothing items from a previous guest.

The resort has a lovely natural setting surrounded by greenery, providing a sense of serenity. However, the overall maintenance leaves much to be desired, as I faced several issues during my stay, including poor dining options and cleanliness.

Location

Nestled in a forest sanctuary, the resort is beautiful and perfect for relaxation, but reaching the attractions in the city can be a hassle as it's a bit far from the main area.

Dining

5.0

The breakfast was quite underwhelming, lacking taste and variety - in fact, it was one of the worst I've experienced at a hotel. It definitely needs major improvement.

Facilities

5.0

Many facilities were under maintenance during my visit, which was frustrating. The pool was the only notable amenity available, and while it was nice, it wasn't enough to make up for the overall lack.
