Avillion Port Dickson still holds the same charm it did when I first visited 20 years ago—but it’s clearly in need of some renovation to bring it back to its former glory.
We arrived early around 10:30am from Singapore and requested to pay for an early check-in. Unfortunately, we were told premium rooms weren’t available yet, though we were assured they’d accommodate us. We passed time at the nearby Regina Mall, which was quite deserted, and returned by 1:30pm—only to find our room still unavailable. Strangely, other couples in premium rooms were checked in ahead of us. After following up and speaking with the manager, we finally got our room at 3pm, which was frustrating, especially as the resort wasn’t even full.
On the positive side, the food was excellent and the staff were warm and hospitable however shorthanded , we could not get assistance when we got lost finding for the white building that serves welcome drinks & high tea. A special mention to the concierge—after hearing about his twin sons needing medical help, we offered a small donation of $50. We hope it makes a difference.
