Thanks to this chef, food was nice. Thanks to maintenance staff, they turned up shortly after my call pertaining to the water heater. Room was clean. Only want to feedback the aircon is too far to reach the third bed near to balcony.

Pros: Staff, cleanliness, restaurants with a decent selection and reasonable price. convenience stores too follow the same principle of not marking up to 'resort prices '. private beach is clean and is alright. Breakfast is Malaysian menu heavy, but we enjoyed it.. Cons: Buggy arrangement can be a but hit and miss on busy weekends. Among the many resort facilities listed - some of the more fun items which we wanted to such as archery, paintball etc . appear to be permanently closed. There are some other options which are available for a fee such as mini-putt, karaoke, funland for little kids and Playstation rooms. We used splash pool, beach and funland and spent the rest of the time driving out to away attractions such as croc farm, firefly park, mini zoo, temple village, Rapid etc, for which Lotus was a good base.

Nice place to stay, but booking information is not cleared to staff when booked for including breakfast via Klook website. Example: when booking paid and including breakfast for 2 adults and 1 kid, but still hotel staff charging for kid breakfast even though paid already.

I booked a Deluxe King Room and the sea view was awesome. The breakfast was average, but the hotel staff were kind, and check-in and check-out were smooth. There was no iron provided in the room, but I saw one in the hallway, so I used it and returned it to its place. Overall, it's worth staying for one night.

Amazing resort. The rooms were spacious, clean and really comfortable. Service from check-in to check-out was warm and helpful. The facilities were well-maintained. Breakfast buffet spread was excellent. We actually miss the place.

The staff is very friendly. The view is beautiful and relaxing. However, the cleanliness inside the bathroom is room for improvement. Found ants around. Overall is a good experience and enjoyable.

What to know before visiting Kota Tinggi

What to do in Kota Tinggi

Kota Tinggi is best known for Water parks and Cruises, followed by Tours and Water activities, with outdoor pursuits also on offer. Demand on Klook peaks in November and July and drops sharply in August, so the year swings between lively peak-season weekends and much quieter months. Use this rhythm to plan: if you want festival-like crowds and full operating schedules, aim for the peak-season atmosphere months; for shorter lines and a more relaxed visit, pick the quieter periods. All observations come from Klook booking data.

Tips for travellers from the Philippines

Most travellers on Klook book close to travel time — typically around 1 day ahead — while the earliest planners book about 4 days out, so you can be flexible when arranging activities. That said, during the busiest months (November and July) it's wise to secure popular Water parks or Cruises earlier to avoid full sessions. Use Klook to compare options and lock in tickets a few days in advance for peace of mind; for quieter months you can often decide at short notice. All advice is based on Klook booking data.
