Mary Beach Hotel and Resort

It was a plain and simple concept, providing any solo traveler with all you need in terms of amenities.

There’s quite a long list of areas which this property is sorely lacking in but to name a few: Amenities, no slippers in-room were provided and the safety box does not work in my room as the previous guest obviously locked the box whilst the safe was open, did not matter much but attention to detail was obviously not there. Guests, on my last night there (2-night stay), there were two Chinese men sitting outside my balcony (I was staying on the ground floor beside the Swimming pool) smoking their cigarettes which wafted into my room causing it to smell terrible, I was mad pissed and rang up the reception to deal with it, during the checkin procedure, the team should be informing other guests especially the Chinese that you ain’t allowed to do that and at least have some decent courtesy and respect for others. F&B related, nothing special really, breakfast was hearty and good but a wider range of offerings is what I recommend for various market segments, some Continental style breakfast would be much appreciated and not rice in the morning with assorted vegetables (very China focused) seemingly, and also last but not least, the chauffing dish should at least have a few candles underneath to keep it warm, the usual problem with these buffet breakfast is that hotels are lacking the ability to keep it warm and fresh in quality.

Staff was awesome very welcoming and friendly

Not very clean, looks cleaner in picture

The location! Landed up spending more money than the room for the commute to and fro the room and the city!

Overall the property was very filthy, when first walking into the room the floors were very dirty, there was a dead bug on the bed. flies & mosquitoes swarm the room. the restaurant was overly priced, the food is disgusting. we expected more.
