The hotel is located perfectly across the street from shell beach. Also, plenty of shops/restaurants in walking distance. The breakfast was above average and the grounds were clean. The only complaint I have is the smell of the room. The overwhelming odor smacks you in the face the moment you open the door. Only after opening the windows and doors for 10 minutes does the smell become tolerable. Its a very strong old musty smell. If they could fix this, the stay would be perfect.

Simply amazing

From the booking over the phone to the great staff who attended me during my stay I enjoyed my get away. Breakfast that was served was great and the bar was a good time and the outside area with the heaters and fire pit was dope. I will definitely book another stay.... the rooms are well kept and the balcony showing the beautiful beach was the cherry on top

Sweet family trip

We had an amazing stay at the Pantai. The hotel is unique and gorgeous. Small and cozy. Service was wonderful and friendly. We loved the breakfast and the free beverages whenever we needed them. The happy hour was cute as well, the bartender made our daughter a special shirley temple. Thank you so much, we can't wait to go back!
