Ulasan Sutera Sanctuary Lodges At Manukan Island

One of our best experience. Best part about Manukan Sutera lodge 1) very helpful and friendly staff. 2) i booked 2 rooms. They gave me adjoining room. Super helpful for family with kids. 3) very spacious rooms. 4) sunset viewpoint is a big plus. U get the see the beautiful sunset. But have to walk 1.5km to and another 1.5km back. 5) private beach is helpful for guests so that we don't have to share the public beach with the rest of the visitors. U get to see more fish and corals because fewer tourists to scare away the fish 6) free rental snorkeling equipment. 7) delicious and sumptuous breakfast. 8) easy boat transport. Free overnightt parking at sutera marina club. Disadvantages 1) no data signal or wifi in the room.have to go to reception for wifi or data signal. 2) dinner is slightly more expensive because there is only 1 restaurant, so no other choices. But food is delicious, even for the fried rice (see pic)

I was a bit reluctant at first to go on an island resort (in case it's bad, you're trapped!) But this resort made me change my mind on KK! Their restaurant has amazing food! Probably the best I had during my stay in Malaysia. Beach was cleaned every morning, and different areas of the island gave the feeling of different beaches. Great pool as well, only for in house guest, so we were alone all the time. Some hiking trail (but easy one) to cross the island and see the sunset.. I'll be back for sure !

The location was great and the staff super friendly. A part of the beach was reserved for hotel guests and was not overcrowded. The team was trying its best to pick up all plastic in the morning from the beach but unfortunately during the day more was coming. People should take more care themselves. You can go snorkeling at the beach but to arrive the corals you need to wait for the tide and have to be a good swimmer. Then it’s beautiful out there. The breakfast was great and a good combination between buffet and menu. Overall we can recommend it for 2 nights. Don’t forget your mosquito repellent and bites relief. We saw several Gerrys;) - beautiful creatures.

Sutera Resort was absolutely stunning. Our villa was clean and comfortable, featuring two balconies with breathtaking views of the private beach. The service was excellent, with friendly and helpful staff. Watching the sunset at the point was magical, and snorkeling and diving were definite highlights of our stay. I highly recommend this resort for a memorable getaway.

Nice and comfortable Lodges with good amenities. Friendly and helpful staff. The breakfast was delicious & the restaurant served delicious food. I've booked 2 rooms. but one of the rooms had a lot of mosquitoes & the TV screen is flickering. This lodge got an exclusive nice private beach separately from the public visitor. The first day when we arrived at the Island, the beach had a lot of plastic bottles & waste found on the shore & floating in the sea. The authorities had taken swift action and cleaned all the waste on the beach & sea. Then it's become much cleaner.

Amazing place.. Amazing villa in front if the sea.. White beach.. Coral reef in front of you.. The water of the sea is clear.. Very pleasant place.surrounded by a green paradise!

Firstly I'd like to say the island is beautiful. The water was clear for snorkelling and the weather great. The one thing that I didn't like was the advertised private beach area. The daytime tourists use the beach and the deck chairs. There is no staff to tell them they can't use them. They just come and use. There's not much exclusivity about the resort during the daytime. Evening is better.

Service good. Food nice. Facilities good. The staff nice and helpful. Feel comfortable staying there

The previous resident of our room had urinated on the mattress, so we were eventually upgraded to another room type for free and enjoyed our stay from that pool on. Except snorkelling from the beach, best after around 4pm when the island is quiet. We saw a reef shark a couple of times, stingrays a tuna fish and many more. Reasonably priced food and drink available from the restaurant.

Housekeeping should be 24/7. Other than that all good.

I like it because it’s island position and good landscape. The amenities are medium, but I would like to ignore it due to the special position. Recommend to stay for several days, WITH foods and snacks brought from the city. I could recommend you some foods I’m eager to have during my visit: 1. Drinks such as beer, spirit. There are only limited selections with expensive prices, I understand the prices but I don’t think it’s a god idea to me. 2. Cup noodles and some snacks 3. Sun cream: sun lights are severe

I’m very satisfied and very amazed by the staff,room and surrounding. Thank to staff make some decorate for my kid’s birthday and Thank to Trip.com makes our holiday get easy 🤩🫰🏻

I recently stayed here and had an absolutely wonderful experience. From the moment I arrived, I was impressed by the warm and welcoming staff who went out of their way to make sure I had everything I needed. The room was spacious, clean, and beautifully appointed with all the amenities I could ask for. The bed was incredibly comfortable, and I slept soundly. Since we're a family of 4, we got a whole house of 2 floors connecting inside, it's very convenient. Overall, I had a fantastic stay and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a comfortable and enjoyable experience on the island. *Remember to tell them if there's a senior when you pay for the conservation fee, we forgot and pay all adults, and it's a cashless counter.

We contacted hotel for ferry pick up preference time via email after we booked the hotel. Waiting at the hotel booth area before pick up. Once arrived, you pay the entrance fee (local RM8, foreigner RM25). Welcome drink and short briefing about the island before we have our room key. Room is big, clean but we spent most of the time on beach. Only one restaurant is open, basically you settle all your meal here. Evening time have live band singing beside your table while you having your dinner. Big swimming pools is beside the restaurant. You able to buy sandwich near beach for convenience to other tourist. Other tourists but not hotel guest are enable to enter hotel area. You may walk 1.5KM to the other side of the island (sunset point) to enjoy the sunset view. It took us about 30mins walk. Unfortunately it’s cloudy day and we can’t see the full sunset. Please prepare torch light as when the sun is down, the walk way to go back hotel can be dark and scary. We only stayed one day on the island, so sad that the next day morning from 8am, Manukan is so crowded due to some event happening there. Found dead jellyfish on the beach, not sure of anyone injured due to this. Overall, enjoyed the stay in Sutera Sanctuary Lodges.
