Damai Beach Resort

Located near the beach, with views of the ocean & Mount Santubong. Spacious, clean room with rustic charm of teak & marble and traditional Sarawak craftsmanship, similar vibe to Club Med Phuket. Comfy bedding. Aircon & shower heater functioning. Bathtub & bathroom tiles not slippery when wet. Staff are friendly & helpful, esp. Satang Cafe staff, pool staff & porter/shuttle bus drivers esp. Ramzi who always make sure the kids & I are well looked after. Breakfast was basic, but the taste was flavoursome - love the butter croissant, mee goreng. The a-la-carte menu was great too - love the beef burger & lamb chops. Room service 24 hours. Convenience store at the lobby, opens 9am to 9pm. Within walking distance to Santubong Park, Cultural Village, Damai Central, Permai Rainforest. Guests can collect & eat the mangoes that fell off the trees, esp. the parents snacking on the mangoes at the children pool. We saw a few monkeys & some local cats too.

The room was very spacious, extremely comfortable beds, very relaxing. Pool was great, restaurant and bars lots of variety. resort is right on the beach so it was a great location, only drawback is going to visit sights takes approx 1 hour.... bako national park, semonggoh wildlife centre, kuching airport.... all 1 hour drive, but it is worth it to have the peaceful surroundings. (we booked our own driver for the duration of our stay) breakfast was great, food was mostly very nice, mix of local and western options.

The breakfast was so so. The location is amazing. It's one of my favorite places on Earth.

Pros: The view from the front row B Suite is excellent. One of the best hotel views I have seen and exceeded my expectation. Room is large and comfortable. Environment is serene and relaxing. Transport within the hotel compound is very efficient. Staff are polite and helpful.

The view from room 1607 was spectacular. Breakfast and drinks in the sunset bar were top-notch, and the view was breathtaking.
