Overall really enjoyed my stay, staff are really friendly and welcoming... only thing I will change is to have a proper shower for guests that have checked in the morning but have a late flight in the evening
The property feels unorganized, there is a large empty space just next to the corridors. The rooms are not soundproof, you can hear guests passing by or next door. Our room had water clogging issues, an rainfall shower, and ceiling residue on the towels. The hotel could use better maintenance.
Only good is the location, right next to eateries and beach

hotel review
We have been going to the malibest resort for about 5 years its not a 5 star hotel if that's what you are looking for but all the staff are very friendly Azril who cleaned are room was very good and accomadating the room's are looking very tired and really are in desperate need of updating one of the things that i find a bit odd is there is only one chair in the room but there is two people staying in the room so this means only one person can site on the balcony wihch was a let down
I really enjoyed eveything about this hotel, from the facility itself to the prime location. Room was very clean upon arrival & daily cleaning was done during my time. Will come back again! Thank you.

Good location
In hotels.com, show me room with balcony. But i Didn't get any.
The reception staff are inefficient and have problems understanding English, and the room service is very poor, but the location of the hotel was very good.

Hotel was ok, rooms and hotel in general looked very warn out and old. Carpet in hotel room was ancient. Drain in bathroom wouldn’t drain away quickly enough so constantly a puddle of water in there when family wanted to shower. Television in room never worked.
Old run down rooms. Terrible bed. Only benefit was the beach is at the back of the hotel.

We stayed at the melibest in langkawi for 20 nights there is building work going on every day there was a lot of banging and drilling and a electric wood planner being used all day and I really mean all day it really spoiled are holiday
Location is good, on the beach and close to bars and the main street. Hotel room tired but ok. Not given any information at check in except location of the room, shy customer service, seemed nervous to speak to international travellers. Very territorial about towels. Swimming pool uncovered so full of leaves. Workmen started loudly working on the hotel roof outside the room at 7-8am every day, so not exactly a relaxing break. But close to the beach in the centre of the strip.
The aircondition kept on switching off every 5 minutes. I did ask them to fix sink pipe but they didn’t. Plus, the shower water from the heater was way too hot. Can’t even take our shower with it. TV was also not working. No wifi provided too. I was so disappointed. Won’t be staying here again next time.
I recently stayed at this hotel, and unfortunately, my experience was far from pleasant. The rooms were not as advertised in the pictures, which was the first of many disappointments. Upon arrival, I noticed there were no towels or hand towels provided. Despite multiple requests and a long wait of about six hours, I had to visit the reception four times before I finally received them.
Additionally, there were no phones in the rooms, making it inconvenient to communicate with the staff. The rooms themselves were in poor condition: they smelled unpleasant, and the carpets were dirty with numerous hairs scattered around. This level of cleanliness was unacceptable and made the stay uncomfortable.
I paid extra for an upgrade and was moved to a room in the new building. While this room was in better condition, it came with its own issues: the water pressure in the bathroom was poor, and I lost the beach view I had initially paid for.
The only positive aspect of this hotel is its convenient location near the beach. However, this alone does not justify the poor service and subpar room conditions.
Overall, the hotel failed to meet expectations, and I would not recommend staying here unless significant improvements are made. The high cost does not match the quality of the accommodations or the service provided.
Franchement, je n’ai jamais vu un hôtel dans un état pareil. Déjà, le personnel est d’une arrogance insupportable, ils prennent les clients de haut, ce qui rend l’accueil particulièrement désagréable. Ensuite, parlons de l’hôtel en lui-même : insalubre et totalement négligé.
Nous avons récupéré notre chambre à 14h, et à peine entrés, le bloc disjoncteur faisait un bruit sourd en continu. Mais le pire, c’est l’état de la chambre : poussière partout au sol, cheveux laissés par les précédents occupants, et surtout une odeur insupportable d’urine qui vous prend à la gorge. Honnêtement, nous sommes restés à peine 15 minutes avant de repartir.
À la réception, nous avons demandé à récupérer notre caution (qui d’ailleurs est totalement injustifiée vu l’état déplorable de l’hôtel). La seule réponse a été : « On ne rembourse pas », sans même chercher à comprendre nos raisons.
Un conseil clair et net : si vous voulez vraiment profiter de votre séjour sur l’île, évitez absolument cet hôtel. C’est une honte de proposer de telles prestations
Superior rommene trenger en skikkelig deepclean. Premier var bedre, men merkelig lukt i flere rom. Sengetøy hadde flekker på både Superior og premier. Rommene er ikke lydtett som hotels.com påstår.
Plasseringen var fantastisk og dei ansatte var veldig hjelpsom
