The Bayview Beach Resort

Quiet location during our stay with very good swiming pool area and plenty of lounge chairs amongst the trees overlooking the sea. From our room we could see the sea and mountains, even birds and monkeys on the trees below. The hotel staff was nice and friendly and the food at the restaurant good and not expensive.

The hotel is very good for stay in Penang as i stayed there for 3 nights 1- room is spacious with a great view and comfortable beds - it is a bit outdated but nothing to really complain about 2- the beach area is great and very near to the hotel and pools are big and clean with depth that suits all needs 3- some great activities and sightseeing nearby ( Escape water park , species park , butterfly park ) 4- the night market is a good for a night walk with several shops and restaurants 5- area is very secure and safe Note - Penang is a very big island so the hotel and the beach considered away from other attractions like penang hill and George town but transportation is convenient and easy using grab or public transpiration

The first room allocated to us smelled musty, so we were moved to another room which was good. The rooms are clean and very spacious with nice views from the balcony. All basic bathroom amenities are supplied, as well as an effective aircon, electronic safe, iron & ironing board, and even disposable slippers. The shower is hot with decent pressure. The pool is lovely & clean with towel service provided and has a nice garden relaxation area surrounding it. The Front Office staff were helpful in printing some documents we needed for our next destination. Overall, the hotel is comfortable and provides good value for money compared to the other beachfront hotels in the area.

Room. We are a family with a toddler and a baby. We brought our helper as well. The room we booked is a family room (hill facing). The room we booked had no partition for privacy (we are aware of this) as the other room designed (with partition) is fully booked. When we arrived, we asked if any of the partitioned family room is available. We were told it will be available the next day after our arrival day. At first I thought the partitioned family room is only the one sea facing as that what was advertised on the website. Meaning we need to pay extra for the room if we wanted to change room. We were already set to change to that room. But one of the staff, Wan (one of the managers) kindly mention to us that the same same partitioned design room is also available facing the hill. Meaning we would not have to add any extra charge for the cost of the room. We were so happy to hear that he would kindly mention this and saved us on room cost. The next day once the room is available he immediately block the room from being book by others for us. And we managed to exchange room with no extra charge and more comfortable with the privacy between us and our helper (she is very glad too). So thank you very much Mr. Wan for the going to the lengths of assisting us.

Location, big and clean pool with friendly towel staff. Private beach with massages and water activities. Partial sea view overlooking the hills and bay. Very calming having both green and blue to look for 5D4N. It was very comfy and serene. I'm sure in its glorious days, it was a superb resort. And it can be! Restaurant is big and the food spread should have gone along with it though ample.
