Airport Guide
Compare 5 airports near Mersing
Choosing the right airport depends heavily on your origin and priority. For most travelers, Johor Bahru Senai International Airport (JHB) is the most practical gateway; it is located in the neighboring city of Johor Bahru and offers the most efficient and cost-effective ground links to Mersing. Singapore's hubs, Singapore Changi Airport (SIN) and Seletar Airport (XSP), serve the nearby city of Singapore and are excellent for international connections, though travelers must factor in potential wait times at land border crossings when budgeting travel time. Malacca International Airport (MKZ) serves the city of Malacca and is a viable alternative if you are already exploring the Malaysian west coast. Finally, Hang Nadim International Airport (BTH) in Batam, Indonesia, is the most complex option, requiring both ferry and land transfers. We recommend prioritizing travel via Johor Bahru for the shortest door-to-door transit, while Singaporean airports offer superior flight frequency for global arrivals.

First i want to review on booking experience. I was so pissed off with Trip.com booking. I entered 3 adults upon search & result showed an option of 3 occupancy room with full-board package for 2 adult. There is option for full-board 3 adults however since the first option was cheaper i was thinking to arrange my own for the additional 1 adult boat transfer & not require the meal package. It was shocking that when i reached the check in office it is mandatory to pay for the 3rd adult boat n meal package to the resort. My question here WHY trip.com put the option for 2 adult knowing the resort does not allow the 3rd person to check in??? This is a scammm for me because i entered 3 adults requirement at the first place for the booking. Both resort & trip.com are not synchronise with the information.
Now going to resort stay experience: The resort staff were all great & the service was also on point. However, the condition of the resort was so below my expectation. I paid RM 700+ per night & i don’t feel worth it. Everything was super outdated & worn off. Especially the bathroom. The floors were cracked open & was swarming with bugs & insects & some people might get allergic to them. The bedroom is self was okay & comfy. Also food-wise, they served a lot of seafood & didn’t ask if anyone was allergic or not which one of us is. For RM 700 per night i expected it is included some activities we could do at the resort however it was disappointing that everything was chargeable whereas they are non-motorised & doesn’t even use resource / maintenance such as kayak & snorkel gear. The only nice thing at the resort was staff friendliness & the food taste.FromUS$211

Mersing|0.87km from city center
This island is very close to Mersing. The scenery on the island is great, the service is good, and the food is decent. The activities on the island are all things I like. However, the island doesn't provide hair dryers, which really isn't very friendly for ladies. Also, the filtered water for showering was really salty—my hair felt like straw during the two days on the island. Finally, when we arrived it was low tide, and the water slide was only open when we were about to leave.Great4 Reviews

I had an absolutely wonderful stay here! The service was excellent—everyone was so polite and greeted me warmly whenever we met. The island environment is beautiful and very relaxing, making the whole atmosphere so pleasant and laid-back. Every meal was delicious too!
My only small comment is that there were quite a lot of mosquitoes and insects in the room, which I understand is unavoidable on an island, but I hope the pest control can be improved in the future.
Overall, I had a really great day and truly enjoyed my time here. Thank you to everyone for the amazing service—I will definitely come back again!FromUS$173

We had a really amazing and comfortable stay at Based Mersing Airbnb. The room was clean, cozy, and well-equipped with everything I needed. The owner were friendly and helpful, which made the whole experience even better.
The only small thing to note is that the bathroom door is slightly exposed, so it might be more suitable for married couples or close partners. Other than that, everything was excellent and I would be happy to stay here again.(Still love it)😍💚😍FromUS$101
