Avaliações do The Happy 8 Retreat @ Kuala Sepetang

convenience place to stay. Sea View and the restaurant is around the hotel.

TV is not functioning due to no signal, Linen, comforter and bath towels are clean and white, no yellowish. Equipments start to look old, is time to do touch up and minor renovation. Overall stay is alright to us.

I booked a family room for four, but upon arrival, the receptionist informed us that we would be given two separate rooms located in different directions, not close to each other. This was quite inconvenient, especially as I was traveling with my elderly parents, who found it exhausting to climb up to level 2. In the end, I took one room myself while the other room was shared by the remaining three. Unfortunately, the experience only went downhill from there. The moment I entered my room, I was shocked to find cockroaches. That alone made the stay very uncomfortable. To make matters worse, the queen sizebed was extremely hard - honestly felt like sleeping on a rock. Overall, this hotel did not meet expectations at all.

Clean, easy access, nice view, friendly staff. Attractive activities nearby. Definitely will come again

“The hotel was old and didn’t have an elevator. The room was very small, and there were bedbugs… It’s been two weeks since I came back and it still hasn’t fully healed, and it can still be contagious.”

I recently stayed at Happy retreat, and overall, it was a lovely experience. The room was spotless, with a beautiful view that really added to the charm. The location was great—lots of food options nearby—so it was easy to get a bite. The only downside was that the staff wasn't available when we arrived, and the check-in took longer than expected. Despite that, it was a very comfortable stay, and I'd give it 4 stars.

Some small ants spotted on the bed. The sunset view from the room was great though. Some noises of the boats throughout the night, still bearable for us, but might be difficult for light sleepers

The hotel is set amidst a nostalgic fishing village near the old jetty, giving it a unique local charm. The wooden design adds a cozy, natural feel, and the service was consistently excellent and welcoming.

The hotel is somewhat 2 stars and I can't have too high of expectations. However, there are some aspects of my stays that are not within my expectations. First, the cleanliness of the rooms is poor. Second, in the room I had stayed, there was cooking smell. Maybe my room is just above the kitchen area. Third, no lift to bring heavy and big luggage to the rooms located at 3rd level. Plus, the staircase is too steep and small. Using the staircase becomes dangerous. Fourth, room sound insulation is poor. The goods about this hotel is the close proximity to the old town of Kuala Sepetang, cheap price and plenty of restaurants nearby.

Perfect location with a great view, but the soundproofing could be better.

Tucked away in the charming fishing village of Kuala Sepetang, The Happy 8 Retreat offers a unique stay that blends rustic charm with artistic touches. While the retreat doesn’t have an elevator—a quirk that adds to its authentic character—guests are treated to beautifully crafted wooden furniture, warm lighting, and a cozy atmosphere that feels close to nature. Each corner tells a story, making it a perfect spot for those who appreciate art, simplicity, and a slower pace of life. An ideal escape from the city’s buzz!

A kind of unique hotel to stay. Only the entrance is look like a wet market. Wall paintings is all over the rooms and outside the rooms. Nice. I love it

We were there for a night stay. It was ok with perfect view towards the riverside.

The common toilet are disgustingly bad condition and even lights are not working
