In need of refurbishment

Property, room, facilities (eg gym) are rather old; run down and in need of major refurbishment. On day of check-in, there was a power outage affecting the whole floor. Hotel rates are considerably high and I expected more from a five star chain.

The room Aircond is disappointing as the temperature is not cold enough, and has to use the fan to improve the cold condition. It was about 26-27 Celsius throughout the whole stay. The fan caused headache the next morning. Otherwise, it was a good experience.

Enjoyed our stay

Love that it was so close to the beach! We were hoping to have a BBQ dinner by the beach but it was closed for a company event. Celebrated my wife's birthday, and the hotel did a small gesture of decorating the room and sending a small cake. Thanks, Westin!

Wonderful family retreat at The Westin Desaru

The rooms at The Westin Desaru are spacious and beautifully designed. The balcony views of the sea were simply breathtaking. The breakfast buffet was a delight, offering a wide variety of options for all tastes. The highlight of our stay must be the pristine private beach. Overall, our stay was a wonderful experience.
