Thistle Port Dickson Resort

Beautiful resort to relax with family, nice and clean room Breakfast was good...lot of varieties. The receptionist is friendly and helpful. Will stay again the next time we vacation in PortDickson. 😊

During my recent stay, I had mixed experiences. While the hotel has some excellent features, there are areas that require significant improvement to meet its 5-star rating. The Good: The outdoor facilities were a highlight. The pools were well-maintained, clean, and offered varying depths to cater to both children and adults, making it enjoyable for families. The private beach was another standout feature—exclusive to hotel guests and pleasantly uncrowded, providing a serene environment for relaxation. Additionally, the breakfast spread was impressive, offering a wide variety of dishes that catered to different tastes and preferences. Areas for Improvement: Unfortunately, the room conditions fell far short of expectations for a 5-star hotel. The room appeared outdated and lacked cleanliness. The tiled flooring resembled car porch tiles, and some areas were mouldy and unclean. The furniture was in poor condition, with doors falling apart, and the bed linen and pillowcases had an unpleasant odor. The bathroom was particularly disappointing, with no exhaust fan to manage the dampness, leading to a persistent unpleasant smell. The mismatched toilet seat and bowl were unsightly, and the towels also carried an odor. Overall, the room felt less comfortable and presentable than those in many 3-star establishments. The amenities in the room also need attention. The TV remote control was difficult to operate, and the ironing board surface was torn, which detracted from the overall experience.

Thistle Hotel Port Dickson is a wonderful getaway with a fantastic location. The beach and swimming pool are major highlights, offering a relaxing and enjoyable experience. I especially loved the thrilling water activities like the donut ride and banana boat, which added a lot of fun to my stay. The ATV experience was also great, though I would have preferred a longer off-road duration to fully enjoy the adventure. As for the accommodation, while the hotel room is a bit old, it is clean and well-maintained, so I had no issues with it. Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed my stay and look forward to coming back again. A great destination for a fun-filled and relaxing holiday!

Beautiful place ... enjoy my day ..will come again ..calm and peaceful place in PD ..cofee house staff all very friendly.. receptionist suriani is very fast and helpful.

Stayed for 1 night with 2 family rooms. Pros: The room was spacious, basic amenities in the room. They had swimming pools for kids and adults. For adults over 6” deep The beach was fairly clean & very nearby. Main reason we stayed here. Our families enjoyed the peaceful atmosphere There’s celebrations on NYE, we didn’t joined as we were knackered Cons: There’s only 1 lift for each wings Breakfast selections can be improved.

The resort is about 15km away from PD town so it was secluded and not crowded. However, I think the resort is under refurbishment since 1st July 2024 and my stay was on 30th Dec 2024. A lot of things need to be updated. The toilet bowl was faulty and couldn’t refill water itself to flush. The beach has a lot of small rocks and pebbles so don’t expect white sandy beach. They held a NYE countdown event at the lobby which was great for the guests and only lasted till 12:30am
