Sorry RRR, maybe I was having a high expectation. I waited for 45 min to check-in (From 3pm-3:45pm) but the service staff was great and helpful with our bags to the room. Surprisingly for a 5 star hotel resort, the room is a bit old and the walls are mouldy. Sofa with stain and dirty carpet. Funny enough that the king sized bed are two twin-bed combined, with a small gap in between. so we have to sleep only on one side of the bed, else the gap will make us backache. Be careful with the bathtub are a bit slippery when shower, as there isn't any separate shower room; so you just shower in the tub. The breakfast buffet are full of flies the next day morning.. Anyway, we still enjoy the beach as it was beautiful during the sunset.

We had a good family bonding time at Shangri La Rasa Ria. There were lots of activities catering to various types of travelers. The beach was long with fine sand, and the sunset view was excellent. There were also game rooms when the sun gets too hot or when it rains.
