My husband and I enjoyed staying in Golden Sands Resort Penang. Excellent Service, Excellence Cocktails & Mocktails / est $12.50 MYR after 50% discount - Happy Hour from 5pm to 7pm, Yummy spring rolls / 9pcs for $12 MYR . Swimmming pool very clean. Spa separated from the adult pool. Children pool protected from sun covered with sailing ...

The hotel is currently being refurbished to a very high standard, and most of the work is completed. The rooms are absolutely stunning. Work was being done during our visit but in no way did this interfere with our enjoyment. A new Manager is in post since my last visit in 2008 and he is very "customer orientated" and extremely ...

I stayed here a few years back and I am looking to return to Penang, but my memory of not being able to sleep because the bed and pillows were too hard is still at the forefront of my mind. Is it still the same? Otherwise I loved it, but I will definitely not return if they still have this problem.

ITS A GREAT PLACE TO VISIT AND TO GET AWAY FROM IT ALL. THE ACCOMODATION IS GREAT AS ARE THE FACILITIES. THE STAFF IS VERY HELPFUL AND ALWAYS FRIENDLY. WE HAVE BEEN GOING BACK EVERY YEAR SINCE 2005 AND WE FIND ITS A PLACE FOR FUN, SHOPPING, RELAXATION AND FAMILY ORIENTED. THE POOL, THE KIDS CLUB, HAPPY HOUR, THE HOTEL RESTAURANT, AND THE LOCATION ...

ALL THE STAFF ARE VERY FRIENDLY AND CAN NOT DO ENOUGH FOR YOU WE HAVE TRAVELED TO A LOT OF OTHER COUNTRIES BUT NONE MORE WELCOMING THAN MALAYSIA

What really annoyed me is that I could not enjoy a walk in the beach with out getting hassled by the touts on the beach. I was planning to try the parachute adventure, but I changed my mind because of ...

The hotel was of a good standard with clean rooms and efficient staff. The swimming pools were spacious but the design was somehow erratic with a 3m depth to the far end of the children's pool. However, this would have been the smokiest hotel I have ever stayed in Malaysia and I had to move from the sunloungers because there was always someone ...

Excellent room and great view of the ocean and pool. Hotel services is great and resturant has good food. The beach is public with a lot of vendors and haggler. For privacy, hotel guess sit on fanced in grass field in back of the beach. For the money, I'd go to other beach hotels in Asia before returning to Golden Sand.

The Golden Sands Resort is typical of the Shangri-La group, Slick, polished, professional, with well trained very courteous staff and beautifully manicured and colourful gardens. Breakfasts (usually included) are sumptuous and world class and the three restuarants there are excellent quality, especially the Italian, but wine prices are through the ...
