Mali-tried-it’s-best

The location of this hotel is AMAZING! You cannot be more beach front than the Malibest. The beach and sea are incredible, the staff are friendly and helpful. The only downside was the pool, it was closed for maintenance, and when opened it was green, but we were not too disappointed as the sea was so amazing!

hotel review

We have been going to the malibest resort for about 5 years its not a 5 star hotel if that's what you are looking for but all the staff are very friendly Azril who cleaned are room was very good and accomadating the room's are looking very tired and really are in desperate need of updating one of the things that i find a bit odd is there is only one chair in the room but there is two people staying in the room so this means only one person can site on the balcony wihch was a let down

Hotel was ok, rooms and hotel in general looked very warn out and old. Carpet in hotel room was ancient. Drain in bathroom wouldn’t drain away quickly enough so constantly a puddle of water in there when family wanted to shower. Television in room never worked.

The property feels unorganized, there is a large empty space just next to the corridors. The rooms are not soundproof, you can hear guests passing by or next door. Our room had water clogging issues, an rainfall shower, and ceiling residue on the towels. The hotel could use better maintenance. Only good is the location, right next to eateries and beach

Get woken up by builders early every morning

Location is good, on the beach and close to bars and the main street. Hotel room tired but ok. Not given any information at check in except location of the room, shy customer service, seemed nervous to speak to international travellers. Very territorial about towels. Swimming pool uncovered so full of leaves. Workmen started loudly working on the hotel roof outside the room at 7-8am every day, so not exactly a relaxing break. But close to the beach in the centre of the strip.

The only positive was that it was a very short walk to the beach. The room itself was very disappointing, the room safe didn’t work upon our arrival and the television didn’t get any signal on any of the channels but it wasn’t worth raising the issue as I didn’t want to be in the room more than I needed to. The towels were provided daily but the toiletries left were minimal for two people sharing. The staff weren’t very pleasant either. There’s definitely better value for money in the same area.

Such A Disappointment

The aircondition kept on switching off every 5 minutes. I did ask them to fix sink pipe but they didn’t. Plus, the shower water from the heater was way too hot. Can’t even take our shower with it. TV was also not working. No wifi provided too. I was so disappointed. Won’t be staying here again next time.
