My stay at Akar Beach Resort had its ups and downs. The Deluxe Double Room I booked was spacious and comfortable, but I was disappointed by the bathroom's condition. While the resort offered a peaceful atmosphere, the beach wasn't very inviting, leaving me hesitant to swim. Overall, it was a decent escape, but I might consider other options for my next getaway.

Overall, my stay was decent at this hotel. The room was spacious and clean, but the bathroom was not as nice as I had hoped. The breakfast was satisfactory, though limited due to pre-ordering. Unfortunately, the beach was a letdown with its dirty water and sharp stones, and while the pool looked nice, it was closed during my visit. I appreciated the overall cleanliness and space, but I likely won't return due to the beach situation.

I recently stayed at this hotel, and while the room was clean and spacious with a nice balcony, the bathroom felt more public than private. The beach was disappointing with dirty water and sharp stones, making swimming a no-go, although the pool looked nice, it was closed during my stay. Parking was a hassle as it was limited, and I had to leave my car by the roadside. Overall, it’s a decent spot for relaxation, but I don’t think I’d return.

I had a decent stay at Akar Beach Resort, but there were definitely some bumps along the way. The room was clean and spacious, and the staff were friendly, but the bathroom felt more like a public restroom. The beach was a big letdown with dirty water and sharp stones, which wasn’t what I’d hoped for. Overall, it's a chill spot to unwind, but I’m not sure if I'd go back again.

My stay at Akar Beach Resort offered a clean and spacious Deluxe Double Room at a reasonable price. However, the beach was quite dirty, which impacted my experience, and the limited parking was a bit of a hassle. Overall, while it's a decent place to unwind, I probably wouldn't return due to a few drawbacks.

I stayed in a Deluxe Double Room with a balcony facing the beach and pool for RM225 per night, which included tax and breakfast. The room was clean and spacious, but the bathroom left a lot to be desired. The beach itself was dirty and not suitable for swimming, and the swimming pool was closed during my stay.

My stay at Akar Beach Resort was a mixed bag. The Deluxe Double Room I booked was clean and spacious, but the bathroom left much to be desired. On the brighter side, the location is fantastic, just a short walk from the beach, even though I found the beach to be dirty with sharp stones. Overall, it's a decent place to relax, but I probably wouldn't return.
