Top Hotels in Durajaya with Spas

My second visit to Desa Alamanis resort, the first one was in 2017. The resort or should I say, village, remained mostly the same with minor improvements. Building structure remain like village but to a point where I think it might collapse, especially the roof. Areas around the swimming pool needed to be more taken care of. The spot below the pool edge felt like it was being left out, or perhaps a development was underway but it was halted. I question their standard for cleanliness because it might get mixed up with the village atmosphere their doing. I stayed in Panembahan type room where it has a huge bathroom, almost the size of the bedroom. It has big traditional tub which they called Kulah, should be interesting to dip in but on second thought the black tub tiles makes it so hard to see whether the water or the tub is clean. Furthermore, there were no hot water for the tub which makes it no sense to spend time on the tub. The bathroom ceiling also has several wasp nests, this is disturbing. I counted and killed at least four wasps with the insecticide spray provided. Normal guests would be terrified of wasps and it can be dangerous if get stung by one. I think the hotel needs structure inspection and maintenance. Please watch the ceiling for any wasp nest. The day after was a lot better. The breakfast was wonderful, mostly traditional food which also being served traditionally. For example, the fried rice or nasi goreng is cooked by request by staff at a pushcart similar to what you'll see on the street of a village. Another recommended food is the traditional cake called serabi which is also made by request. Another attraction provided at a price by the hotel is the pottery class. They brought a local pottery craftsman to teach hotel guests. My four year old loved it so much as she made one for herself. They also sells a clay cup for a very low price, good for souvenirs. Overall, I did not have a good stay. Almost dropped a low review but the breakfast and pottery class is worth the credit. Also, please support the local pottery craftsman by joining the class and buying their goods.
