The place was great, and the staff were friendly and welcoming, which made my stay enjoyable. The only thing I wish could be improved is the breakfast buffet. It would be wonderful to have more authentic Malaysian food available at an affordable price, rather than mainly offering typical American-style breakfast options and meals. This would give guests a chance to enjoy local cuisine and experience mall of Malaysian’s rich food culture. Overall, I had a pleasant stay, and I hope this suggestion will be considered to make the experience even better for future guests.

Loved this resort...centrally located, great facilities, access to the beach, easy to reach by bus from Komtar in Georgetown (bus stop at door). Staff were very helpful and attentive. Buffet breakfast was amazing with so many choices. Even got to meet the Manager on quite a few occasions who was wondering the resort, checking facilities (very impressed by this) On the same bus route to Batu Firinghi, Penang NP, Escape, Butterfly farm too. Would highly recommend for a staycation as it's quieter, spacious and centrally located.

Enjoyed three relaxing nights at M Social. My ocean view room was great, clean and spacious. Friendly and helpful staff. Plenty of delicious vegetarian options at the breakfast buffet. However, as a retired woman traveling alone, I found the resort on the quiet side, with all activities a Grab ride away. I'd recommend it for families, though: lots of happy kids in the pool.

Beautiful room with amazing view of the sea. We had a balcony, but strangely there was no furniture on the balcony. Zero chairs or tables. That was disappointing. Pool was very nice, but deck chairs run out pretty quickly. Breakfast was very nice, but sometimes they run out of dishes and it takes very long for them to replenish. We enjoyed our stay very much.

Sweet little hotel and good staff. The breakfast could be picked up a little bit, I found that many of the dishes were cold when they should’ve been warm and the pastries were not up to standards. Yeah, beer was about $24 when asked for two small beers. Good thing no there’s a grocery store right across the street. Lots of great restaurants around, but don’t eat at the Lebanese one that’s close to the hotel, we sent two dishes back.

Location was good. Average food option in hotel but there are hawker stalls near by and grab can always deliver. AI clock was very distracting at night due to brightness. Not able to fully turn off the brightness. Pool was great but water cold so need to swim before 5pm if you don’t like cold water. Weekday the bar at the pool is not always manned so need to go looking for staff if you want food. Private beach access was a plus.
