Extremely close to the pier, which is super convenient for island hopping. My kids really enjoyed the pool too. Downstairs, you can even cuddle with koalas 🐨, but you need to book that in advance. Breakfast options were a bit limited, but as a Shangri-La member, I got a discount, making it a better value than eating out.

The location is fantastic! It's very close to the kids' water park, the night market, and the pier for boat trips. We booked a sea-view room, and it was quiet and comfortable. They even provided complimentary bottled water, which was a nice touch as it's the only hotel we've stayed at that offered it.
