Thistle Port Dickson Resort

hotel and around..

This hotel is perfect for families with young children as it offers plenty of facilities and activities. One of the main attractions for me was the large swimming pool. It’s one of the biggest hotel pools I’ve visited, with a depth of 2.5 meters! The hotel room was clean and comfortable. If you have a bigger budget, I recommend choosing a seaview room, as the "garden view" room I stayed in only offered a view of building rooftops. The private beach was clean and peaceful, with options for water sports. The hotel also organizes fun activities for guests, such as poolside Zumba and family games. There's even a petting zoo in the lobby, which the kids loved. The surrounding area looks beautiful at night, with plenty of lights. As for breakfast, there were many delicious options to choose from. Overall, I found this hotel to be very enjoyable and would definitely choose it again for a weekend getaway with family and friends.

Very helpful & friendly staff. Helped me for room upgrades and managed to keep our 4 rooms on the same floor. Good food. The beach was amazing, very clean; water so clear that I can see where I'm stepping to. Not a fan of toilet bidet so next time I'll ask first.

Close to shops and eating places and places of attraction, ample parking, as always a fantastic view of the ocean, large and comfortable room, extensive swimming pool options for kids and adults, right next to the beach, fairly good breakfast spread, fairly good dinner choices at reasonable price, very friendly and helpful staff, reception staff was kind enough and gave a free upgrade to a suite.

Thistle has been always our favourite resort for quick family getaway from Kuala Lumpur City. While the hotel's prime location, inviting swimming pools, and scenic beachfront remain noteworthy, the aging facilities detract from the overall experience. What was once a great establishment now shows signs of wear and tear, impacting the comfort and ambiance. Despite these shortcomings, the captivating surroundings might still make it a viable choice for those who prioritize the destination over the accommodation itself.
