"Here’s a summary feedback about my stay: Unsatisfied : 1) There is some hiccup on the check in process. Arrived late for check in and found out the access card was not in the mail box for collection (as per instruction guide). But the owner of the property took an effort to arrange a trip within 30mins to handover a pair of substitute access cards. Although some delay but have to give some credit to the owner on making the effort to solve this problem. 2) Sunday check out is a nightmare 😱 This building is very high density. It took me and my family 30 mins to finally get a lift from my unit floor go down to the car park. Would recommend you plan your time wisely. Satisfied : 1) The view for this unit is absolutely beautiful. All the 2 bedrooms and living room has a huge glass window and it’s facing sea view with the Penang bridge! 😍 2) Cleanliness is by far one of the best in the list among all the air bnb stayed before. 😍 3) Location is great for those who have car. It may take about 10-15mins drive to the Georgetown area. 4) Convenient stall is available at the lobby of the building. 👍🏻 5) Very responsible and responsive 👍🏻 Overall it’s really a nice place to stay for family with 8 pax. Would recommend to friend and families to stay this particular unit! 👍🏻"

"I booked a bit late, and the only private room with a bathroom left was a bunk bed. However, it was perfect for a solo traveler; I could sleep on the bottom bunk and use the top for my belongings, even to hang some clothes. There was also plenty of space to open my suitcase flat. The location is super convenient, and breakfast is included – I tried three different kinds over three days, which was really impressive! I'll definitely stay here again next time."

"Great Stay with Beautiful Sea Views We had a wonderful 5D/4N stay at Tanjung Point Residence and were delighted with a complimentary upgrade to a 3-bedroom unit. The beautiful sea view was a real highlight, and it was wonderful to wake up to the gentle sound of the waves. The apartment was very clean, spacious and well maintained, with excellent facilities and amenities. Everything was in great working condition. We especially loved the thick, fluffy towels and comfortable pillows. The direct access to the beach was another highlight, with sea sports facilities available as well. The only downside is that it’s about a 25–30 minute drive to Georgetown. Overall, we had a fantastic stay and would definitely return. Highly recommended!"

Melayu Villa by Aayu - 8 mins walk to Armenian St is the perfect place to unwind after a day of travel or work. This property also offers free luggage storage.

"I had a pleasant stay at Melayu Villa by Aayu. The room was very spacious and consisted of two connected areas: a living room and a separate bedroom. The bathroom is located slightly farther away, so you need to walk through a short passage within your private room area, but it is still completely private. When you first arrive, you will need to enter through the shop and use the back door to access the villa. Shared amenities such as the water cooler, kettle, dishware, and microwave are located on the ground floor, so these items are not provided inside the room. One thing to note for guests staying on the second floor is that the corner leading to Room 8 is quite narrow. Guests with large luggage should take extra care when moving through the passage."

Amazing Stay — Definitely Worth It! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I had such a pleasant stay at this hotel and honestly, everything was better than I expected. From the moment I arrived, the whole experience felt comfortable, smooth and welcoming. The check-in process was quick and easy, and the staff were really friendly and helpful throughout my stay. The location is definitely one of the biggest highlights. It was very convenient to get around, and there were plenty of restaurants, shops and places to visit nearby. I didn’t have to spend too much time travelling around, which made the whole trip much easier, especially when I had a packed itinerary. As for the room, I was really impressed with how clean and comfortable it was. The room was spacious enough for me to move around comfortably, and everything was well arranged. The bed was also really comfortable, which was honestly important after a long day of travelling and walking around. The room had everything I needed for a comfortable stay, and I really appreciated how clean the bathroom and sleeping area were. I also have to mention the cleanliness because this was one of the things I noticed immediately. The room felt fresh and properly maintained when I arrived. Towels, bedsheets and the bathroom were all clean, and the overall environment felt very comfortable. It’s always nice when you can come back to your hotel after a tiring day and just relax without worrying about anything. The staff were another highlight of my stay. Everyone I interacted with was polite, friendly and helpful. Whenever I had a question or needed assistance, they were happy to help. The service felt professional but still warm, which made the stay even more enjoyable. The overall atmosphere of the hotel was also really nice. It felt comfortable and relaxing without being too formal. Whether you’re travelling alone, with friends, as a couple or with family, I think this hotel would be a great choice. It’s the kind of place where you can actually look forward to coming back and resting after a long day outside. For the price, I honestly think the hotel offers great value for money. You get a comfortable room, good service, a convenient location and a pleasant overall experience. Of course, every hotel may have small things that could be improved, but personally, nothing during my stay affected my overall experience. Overall, I’m really happy with my stay here and I would definitely consider staying here again on my next trip. I would also recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a comfortable, clean and convenient place to stay without spending too much. Definitely one of the hotels I’d happily come back to! 9/10 ⭐️

What I liked: quick and convenient communication with the administrator during check-in. The room offered good value for money. What I didn't like: The pool rules weren't supported by its infrastructure. There's nowhere to change into dry clothes, but you're not allowed to leave in wet ones. The floor in front of the pool gets scorching hot in the sun, yet they require you to walk barefoot, even without slippers. They even came up with a dress code for visiting.

The hotel's facilities are great, especially the pool which offers fantastic views and a very comfortable water temperature. The views from the rooms are also beautiful, overlooking a large, auspicious area below. However, the location is a bit out of the way, and the surrounding amenities are fairly basic. If you need something urgently, you'll have to buy it at a convenience store along the road, as there's nothing nearby. It's a taxi ride to Kimberley Street. There are two night markets close by, and while the food is decent, the variety isn't extensive. I'd still recommend exploring other areas for more dining options.

No pictures to share. The location is very good and easy to find. The lounge area is spacious but only has two chairs. The carpet isn't clean enough to sit on. The bathroom is okay, but the toilet isn't clean, and no slippers were provided for the toilet. The pump was broken. The bedsheets and towels smelled sour, as if they hadn't been dried properly. In my opinion, the cube sleeping area is only suitable for small people. Check-in and check-out were easy. Information from the owner was very fast and accurate.

We decided on our overnight trip to Penang at the very last minute but still managed to secure this unit and check in on 29th Dec 2025, since it was impromptu, prices were not cheap. It was difficult to find good and reasonably priced accommodation just after Christmas before New Year. However, I must say this unit was a good find. Not cheap but reasonably priced due to high season but I must say that it was easy to book, check in and out, everything went smoothly. Communication via Whats App and Check in details were sufficient, did not have any difficulties in finding the place and parking was good. Location is excellent. This place is in Georgetown, we did do GRAB if we wanted to go to places which were difficult to find parking and the rest which were further we just drove to where we need to go. For dinner, the young adults walked back from Citadines Hotel area (happening place with hawker food round the corner and a shopping mall) and had a great time discovering new F & B outlets. The rest of the senior citizens of course, took a GRAB car and quickly got back to the unit to rest and had a nice cuppa tea before bedtime. The following morning, it was breakfast at Pulau Tikus market, nearby as well. Old hawkers are still around there, so food is good. There is a great Nyonya restaurant in that area as well though we could not go this time round as we ended up at Oceano Symphony. Another story to follow up if you are interested. Our family enjoyed our stay at the unit, decor was good and facilities were well-kept, clean and sufficient. The view is lovely (high floor) - do have a good seaview, stretches from Living room all the way to the Master Bedroom. Also you have 2 convenient shops downstairs in case you need to grab a sandwich or drinks.

This stay was fantastic! The hotel's overall ambiance is really comfortable, and the room was clean and tidy. The decor is simple yet elegant. The mountain view from the floor-to-ceiling window was absolutely beautiful, and the air in the morning was wonderfully fresh. The room facilities were complete, the bed was soft and comfy, and the hygiene was also very satisfactory. The hotel's location is quiet, and check-in and check-out were both very convenient. The whole atmosphere is perfect for a relaxing getaway. The service was also very warm and friendly, and it offers great value for money, looking pretty much exactly like the pictures. I'll definitely choose this hotel again next time I'm here. Highly recommended!

Great for families. Peaceful, and the check-in/check-out process was smooth. The pool is fantastic; if you go when it's not crowded, you can swim to your heart's content without any silly rules. The best part is the amazing and aesthetically pleasing coffee shop, Ang Ang Roastery, right next door – definitely give it a try!

Hi. Thank you for hosting us. It was really a wonderful stay. I am especially surprised and warmed by your hospitality. I traveled with 4 young kids (all boys), my elderly mother and my wife. We don't commonly travel because it's always a concern to us, how to make time and space for everybody. But. This time, things are alright and it turned out to be a very smooth and comfortable stay. The place is spacious and just nice for all the 4 kids to roam. The view outside is astonishing and the unit is directly facing east. In the morning, I could actually catch a glimpse of the sunrise. It really makes me understand by sudden, why Penang is named as the jewel of the east. Ya. It was a perfect morning for me then. The room upstairs is specially designed for the kids with warm colours, clean bedsheets, blankets and soft pillows. It's so comfortable, and my kids refuse to leave the room. To my surprise, inside the drawer besides the bed, there are very nice story books for the young minds. Not to mention, the huge TV screen in front of the bed and an even bigger one, downstairs in the living hall.. Ya, there is always something for every different age.. btw, I brought along 2 young minds who are 3 and 5 years old, they had wonderful nights and sound sleep. Ya, it's for those traveling with very young ones, or even the old ones. Ya, the old speaker works really well (with the high ceiling of the living room), when playing a nice morning piano music in the early morning, it's so calm, clear and crisp, and looking out of the window and the vast blue sea. You can temporarily forget about the hassles of life. Thank you again. 👍 Thumbs up

Nice place. Upgraded since I was last there. Nice thick, firm and comfy mattresses. Nice to have independent sockets and lighting on each dorm bed. However, the single AC unit in the room is ineffective for the large room with 18 beds. A selection of fans would be a great addition to circulate to air. Reception is not 24hr.
