Top Kuantan Hotel Reviews

Swiss-Grand Beach Resort Kuantan

Swiss-Grand Beach Resort Kuantan

10/10 Excellent
"We had a great experience at the hotel, the breakfast selection was great, loved the activities, beautiful beach. The bedrooms were spacious for our family of five. The kids enjoyed it tremendously. The only complaints we have were that the kids pool were closed the second day we were there, but we were still able to swim in the larger pool. And the larger pool was a little deep for shorties like me, I was not able to stand with my little one while helping him swim as it was too deep for a 5’2”. I do wish it had been less deep, but other than that, we loved our vacation!"
