Not worth at all . Seems the staff never attended a training and are very cold and far to be custom oriented. Requested made took ages to be delivered , and did only requested several times . Besides of the pool side , all facilities and room setting are old , forget the beach thing , can be called beach . Funny thing, the other sangri-la Rasa Ria , the experience was wonderful, all the staff has been very nice . So if you have to choose please go to Sangri-la Rasa Ria instead of Tanjung ! Btw , the night show was good, and breakfast also good options . The dinner outside was very poor prepared 🥲
