The only attraction is the pool but too many kids playing in the pool during weekends making it impossible to swim laps. Also too many people in the cafeteria during breakfast and services [food refill] are slow.

1) Very limited parking. 2) Breakfast - very lousy, food not refilled and staff is very slow and not friendly. Staff needs training. 3) Charge me rm5/bottle when i requested water for my room. 4) Lift service is very slow. very long wait. Overall comment, a lot of improvement needed especially for the staff.

I can’t recommend this facility too highly, I am a frequent traveller and expect to be taken care of when I pay. Everything I requested was supplied without delay. Pretty close to 10 out of 10. Oh, the bed was amazing. Thanks Flamingo I will be back.

Relaxing stay at Flamingo
Seaview rooms makes it a worthwhile stay and a beach front that’s attached to the hotel is a game changer. Near to local food offerings thus not having to go to town for meals makes for a relaxing vacation. Pool is sizeable though it's cleaning hours from 11 to 12pm was annoying but understandable due to fully clothed families using the pool thus cleaning up is necessary for other serious swimmers. Special note to reception staff who gave impeccable service, especially the hotel Duty Manager Amirul. Worth a repeat visit.

Worth a 2nd visit, certainly
Hotel has extremely helpful, friendly staff especially its reception personnel. Of worthy mention would be the Duty Manager Amirul. Room with seaview and a beachfront are invaluable assets of this hotel too.

Do not reccomend
Hotel was extremely dated and not kept clean at all. From ants to cigarette butts in the sink to grime and mold on the shower and hairdryer it was incredibly unpleasant. Also the spa has been closed for 2 years but the site said "spa". Breakfast buffet was inedible , room service food was terrible. There are better hotels nearby for similar prices

The property itself looks good on the outside, but inside was clearly way out dated. The rooms smells of mildew and out dated air condition. It was not cold or it was noisy. The washrooms are old and has tiny ants everywhere, and they bite. This place needs a desperate renovation. I would not recommend this property.

It was a little run-down, probably due to lack of income during Covid. But it was a very good stay. We would stay there again. Very nice staff. Excellent location. Lovely view from room.
