Yauheniya Satsura🏡 Modest but Convenient Hotel Near the Beach
We stayed at this hotel in Pangkor, and overall, our experience was positive.
- 📍 **Location:** It's super close to the beach and the main street with cafes and shops – you really couldn't ask for a better spot.
- 🏠 **Accommodation Style:** The hotel is made up of small bungalows, each with its own entrance. Most have a little terrace with a table. It's all very simple, but clean and pleasant.
- 🛏️ **Amenities:** The bedding was clean, there was always hot water, and the air conditioners were powerful. The towels, however, are quite worn out and could use replacing.
- 🏊 **Pool:** There is a pool, but it looked a bit gloomy, so we didn't use it.
- 👥 **Staff:** The owners are polite and friendly. No deposit is required. There's a front desk, but it's not open 24/7, which is something to keep in mind if you're checking in late.
📌 **Bottom Line:** A simple yet tidy hotel with an excellent location. It's suitable for those looking for affordable accommodation by the sea without extravagant expectations. We were happy with our stay.

Guest User🔑 Check-In & Service
Seamless Process:
Check-in and check-out are incredibly easy. I really appreciated that they don't require a deposit like other hotels; you simply return your room card at the end of your stay.
Outstanding Hospitality:
Mister Bernard was so friendly, helpful, and hospitable throughout our entire stay! All the staff at Voyage Retreat are equally helpful and friendly, and it's wonderful that they are all locals.
Easy Accessibility:
Even though the pathway leading to the rooms is quite hilly, you can easily request a buggy service to get around. And for those with elders and kids, I think you can highlight to them for they to give you to a lower room.
🛏️ The Room & Comfort
Spacious & Bright:
As you can see in the pictures, the room itself gets plenty of natural lighting and features really high ceilings. Because of this, the room barely feels stuffy or hot during the afternoon and evening.
Aircond/Fan:
The air conditioning gets pretty cold, and there is also a ceiling fan provided.
High-End Bedding:
The bedsheets, pillows, and blankets are all spotless, clean, and completely odorless. The mattress is quite firm and thick, reminiscent of what you would find in a high-end hotel, and the pillows are fluffy and very comfortable to sleep on.
In-Room Amenities:
They provide a water purifier/filter machine right inside the room, which is incredibly convenient so you don't have to walk out to the receptionist or cafe area just to get water.
Privacy with a View:
The balcony and windows face directly toward the forest, giving you excellent privacy.
🚿 Bathroom & Amenities
Spotless Cleanliness:
Both the bathroom and toilet are perfectly clean with absolutely no musty smell. The provided towels are surprisingly absorbent, spotless, and fresh.
Shower Facilities:
The bathroom features both a standard shower and a water heater. The provided shower gel and shampoo smell absolutely amazing.
Other Amenities:
They provide toothbrushes, toothpaste, a shower cap, and even sanitary bags.
🍽️ Breakfast (Le Pont Cafe)
Breakfast is served at the Le Pont Cafe right in front of the lodge. The food is excellent and went way beyond our expectations, with portions that are more than generous for one person.
Menus:
Crab Curry Mee (The Winner):
Absolutely delicious! The broth is thick, flavorful, beautifully balanced, and not too spicy. It was the absolute highlight of the menu.
Nasi Lemak:
A very interesting take as it includes fish and prawns. The taste is good, similar to a standard hotel nasi lemak.
Western Options:
Both the English Breakfast and the egg mayo croissant were great as well. The croissant is flaky and fluffy.
Desserts/Kuih:
They serve fresh watermelon alongside a rotation of traditional local desserts that change daily, including seri muka, karipap, kuih ketayap, koci, and keria.
🛡️ Safety & Peace of Mind
Secure Environment:
At night, there is a guard doing rounds, so you never have to worry about safety. Honestly, the island itself feels very safe, and the property is surrounded by local houses.
Really recommended to stay here if you're looking for a private, quite, clean, comfortable, picturesque place to stay in Pangkor. The only downside is the parking space is very limited. However, everything else is perfect!
ps: kinda sad I cannot upload the full video of the room tour in here, as the room is really pretty. It's inspired by Bali vibe :')

Guest UserAfter a very positive first night here, as a solo Thai traveler in Malaysia, I felt this hotel was so much like home. I felt safe and comfortable staying here, which is why I decided to stay a third night. Initially, after two nights, I considered changing hotels, but after thinking it over, I felt this one was the best. Although it might be a bit far for some, there's a bus stop right in front, just a short walk away. There are also restaurants nearby, and the hotel offers a sense of freedom with plenty of space downstairs to use. Plus, the air conditioning in the room was very comfortable, and the bed was so soft that I slept soundly. If I have the chance, I might stay here again in the future

sandracwl- The breakfast restaurant is too small, requiring a long wait every day. Although breakfast hours extend until 10:30 AM, food is no longer refilled after 9:30 AM.
- This stay was on the 12th-floor Concept floor, which includes afternoon tea at the Concept Lounge from 5:00 PM to 7:00 PM. I went to the lounge around 5:45 PM that day, but there were no hotel staff present. All used dishes and cups were left on tables, uncollected. There was absolutely no food refill. I called the hotel lobby to inquire, and eventually, a staff member arrived. This employee showed no smile whatsoever, and their service attitude was far from friendly.
- The swimming pool is on the R floor. It's very small, and there are no hotel staff or lifeguards present at all.
Given this level of service and hotel facilities, I don't believe this hotel can be considered a five-star hotel in Ipoh.

The hotel isn't too far or too close to the train station; you can see it. But if it's a hot day and you're carrying luggage, just grab a taxi – it's only a few bucks.
The two young gentlemen in the ground floor lobby provided excellent service. They always proactively opened the door for us and were very polite.
The guy who checked me in was also great; he let me get my room half an hour early.
The lobby on the 18th floor has a very comfortable atmosphere.
The room was also very good.
There's a 7-Eleven downstairs.
During the day, it's very close to 'San Na Street' (likely a local reference, perhaps a specific shopping area or street name); just be careful crossing the road.
All the shops close very early and are often shut.
There's absolutely nothing around at night.
I didn't even know where to go to get a taxi!
Better just go to bed early.

This was our second stay here. First, a lovely lady at the front desk (apologies, I didn't catch her name tag) provided very attentive and detailed service. She proactively explained many check-in specifics and shared upgrade offers. Unfortunately, the housekeeping staff clearly missed some things and didn't thoroughly check if all in-room amenities were complete. The pillowcases weren't on the pillows, the conditioner and shower gel in the bathroom were empty, and there was only one tissue left in the box. When I called the front desk for these supplies, some were still missing when they were delivered. Hilton is a well-known upscale international hotel, and such oversights really shouldn't happen. I hope to see improvement on our next visit.

Daniel WSLOverall Rating: ★★★☆☆
The apartment's biggest advantage is its excellent location. There are plenty of restaurants, cafés, convenience stores, and shopping options within walking distance, making it very convenient for families and larger groups. The host was responsive and replied promptly when we raised issues during our stay.
Unfortunately, the cleanliness and maintenance of the property fell well below our expectations. We encountered ants throughout the apartment—including the living room, sofa, dining area, kitchen, bedrooms, and bathrooms—which made it difficult to enjoy our stay. Although the host provided insect spray after we reported the issue, the infestation was so widespread that spraying the entire apartment was neither practical nor a comfortable solution.
Several areas were dusty, the curtains had a noticeable layer of dust, and the bedsheets and toilet rolls appeared old. We were also charged RM60 for an extra bedsheet for two nights, but the condition of the bedding did not justify the additional fee. The sofa showed signs of wear, and one of the ceiling fans was noisy during operation.
For larger groups, please note that when someone showers upstairs, the downstairs bathroom cannot be used properly due to water pressure issues. We were informed that this affects every unit in the building, suggesting it is a known issue rather than an isolated incident.
The facilities were also disappointing. The jacuzzi was unavailable during our stay and appeared to be non-functional, making it more decorative than usable.
The host initially agreed to compensate us for the cleaning fee due to the cleanliness issues, but we did not receive any further update after that.
Overall, the apartment has great potential because of its strategic location, but significant improvements in cleanliness, pest control, maintenance, and facility upkeep are needed before I could recommend it to others.
Pros
Excellent location with many restaurants, cafés, and shops nearby.
Responsive communication from the host.
Cons
Widespread ant infestation throughout the apartment.
Dusty environment, including dusty curtains.
Old bedsheets, worn furniture, and additional bedding charges that did not reflect the quality provided.
Noisy ceiling fan.
Water pressure issue prevents simultaneous use of upstairs and downstairs bathrooms.
Jacuzzi was not usable, just a decoration.
Compensation for the cleaning issue was promised but never followed up.

Che Shi MinThe stay was comfortable and chill. The hotel is newly open and clean. Parking is convenient and the gym was the best gym I have in Ipoh. The gym machine is new and well function. The jogging and cycling machines also a lot so that I don’t need to wait for others. There is jazcuzi and swimming pool as well. The garden are beautiful and nice photo session.
