Pangkor Laut Resort

Our stay at Pangkor Laut Resort was nothing short of paradise. We were blessed with beautiful weather, and this island truly is one of a kind. It is a peaceful haven where we could completely unwind from our busy lives. Even though I am not sure if the resort was fully booked, it never felt crowded. There was always space by the pool, and the atmosphere was calm and relaxing. Pangkor Laut has truly thought of every detail. Despite being an iconic resort that has existed for decades, everything remains spotless, perfectly maintained, and full of charm. The food was excellent throughout. Uncle Lim’s Kitchen deserves a special mention: the roasted duck and chicken in sesame sauce were absolutely heavenly. For lunch, we loved Emerald Bay the most, as it perfectly matched the relaxed beach vibe we were looking for. The only minor downside was that at the main pool, only the full all-you-can-eat BBQ menu was available, and no smaller portions. So we happily took the golf cart to Emerald Bay every day instead. Our room was simply fantastic, a solid 10/10. Every morning, by the time we returned from breakfast, it was already cleaned and beautifully refreshed. The staff were outstanding. Everyone was warm, friendly, and genuinely interested in making our stay as perfect as possible. Two people deserve a special shout-out: Nadim, who worked both at breakfast and at Uncle Lim’s, was an exceptional host with great attention to detail. And THT, who worked by the pool, was talented, cheerful, and incredibly hard-working. He truly stood out and is an absolute asset to Pangkor Laut. I hope the resort knows how lucky they are to have him. In short, an unforgettable experience in paradise. We will definitely be back.

The hotel was a true paradise, the staff was amazing. The room fantastic. We enjoyed the facilities of the hotel like pools, videogame room, tennis court and also streaming room for movies.

We have been visiting Pangkor Laut for 30 years, and it is with great disappointment that we have noticed a steady decline in the standards, the food in Fisherman's Cove is still excellent, Uncle Lim is now very average but Dinner in Feast Village is absolutely awful, there is a mixture of buffet and a la carte but sadly there is very poor offering. The cleanliness of the resort in the room and the ground are also sub standard for what is supposed to be a 5 star resort. The pathway outside our room wasn't swept for the 4 day duration of our stay despite a comment to reception. I must stay that the staff are still excellent and so friendly but it it with a sad heart to say that this will be our last visit

Whenever I have a celebration in mind at a location that is rather near and easily accessible by road with friends , one good location that has both a sea front and forest for short treks , one haven comes to mind. For my nonegenarian spouse who needs a wheel-chair at times, and my family and friends many of whom are Nordic Walkers and aqua fitness enthusiasts , the choice is none other than the serene YTL Pangkor Laut Resort which is slightly more than a 3-hour road journey away from our home. So, last year as it has been the norm, we celebrated my 84th birthday back at our favourite Uncle Lim's restaurant by the sea front. I just love the tranquil ambience , the variety of food especially the fresh garupa which is perfectly steamed and the big prawns cooked our style , the friendly quick service , the clean rooms , and the prompt room service whenever we called for. The birthday cake, in fact 3 of us all seniors, celebrated our birthdays here during this milestone getaway - 2 of us on 2nd Nov and another member of our group on the 3rd day. The cakes were beautifully presented . We even staged an impromptu fun concert to entertain ourselves in the Conference Room. The staff did the seating arrangement for us and fixed the music and the sound system so efficiently all in good time after our dinner. In all there were more than 50 of us close friends and relatives. We particularly liked the extremely great service of loading our luggage speedily into the speedboats and registering us so quickly so not much time was wasted. We were served drinks as a welcome after our 3plus hour ride. The Nordic Walkers had ample space for several personalised Refresher short courses during the day in the open. This was good in the open air. They loved the explanation of the resort naturalist as they went on the short Nature trail. It suited the seniors fine as the challenge was just moderate to suit their health condition. They enjoyed the walk up and down the different terrain. Overall, it was indeed a splendid 4D3N break from the pollution of the capital city and to celebrate a birthday with close friends and relatives at a resort known for its cleanliness and friendly service with a smile and a warmth that YTL RESORTS that I frequent regularly are known for. As a repeat customer , it is a wondetful experience to be welcomed so warmly and with such a personalised caring service.. To Ivy , the Resort Manager and her entire team, especially the Spa team , the different Chefs - Chef Ali and his team, Mr Vije who stands out , Aung Thuren and all the waiters at the diffefent restaurants and Chapman Bar and the Feast Village plus the swimming pool Beach Cafe thank you all for a wonderful stay. To the boat men and jetty staff plus the drivers of the shuttle vans, your service with a smile is exemplary. We enjoyed the birthday celebration and entire stay and certainly will be back next year. See you.
