This hotel COULD be absolutely fantastic.
Unfortunately it isnt due to the complete lack of care and attention.
It faces onto the beach but sadly the area is not looked after,dirty not cleaned and certainly not serviced by staff.
Most of the sunbeds dont have cushions and the ones that do need a good clean, no ashtrays so everyone just throws butts on to the beach,no waiter service from bar.
Restaurant;
Well dont know where to start!
Certainly does not cater for European guests.
Lots for Asian guests tho.
The same bowl of Danish pastry etc has been put out everyday so are pretty stale now.
Juice is very watered down,no hot choice other than plain omelette or fried egg, dont ask for anything in it as you will be told no!
Cant cook a pizza we sent one back as it was burned on top and cold in middle only to get another one that had been microwaved to death.
Tried a curry was just bones and slimy chicken skin and lamb so hard couldn't cut it,at this point I went to reception to complain and the next day we were given complimentary dinner which was actually very nice but we waited nearly an hour for it.
All of that is a big issue because hotel is a good 30min from centre and when you've been out all day you dont always want that treck.
Swimming pool also not cared for.you need to go get your own dirty sunbed cushion,swim up bar not in use and cleaning of pool is not done on a regular basis.
Staff are really polite on the whole but the place leaves a lot to be desired.

We stayed at BBRS for the last three nights of our holiday to have a rest after 7 days touring Borneo. Our room was on a block of one storey units overlooking the pool. There were also some blocks of two storey unites as well. The room was spacious, really clean, with a great air con system. It was like walking into a fridge, which was lovely as the temperature outside was very hot and humid. Each room had a little table and two chairs on a wooden terrace outside the room. Their were two pools next to each other. One larger one, and a smaller splash pool with a slide attached to it with plenty of sunbeds.
When we first arrived there were only about 10 guests including ourselves, but the following day (a Friday), people began arriving in their dozens. It turned out that there was family fun day event being held there on the Saturday. The place had more of an atmosphere with more guests.
If like us, you enjoy a wander, from the beach turn right and walk for about 40 minutes and you will find an inlet that joins to the river. Turn right there onto a dirt track which eventually becomes a tarmac road and on the left there is a really nice place called the Beringgis riverside café. There you can enjoy an ice cold beer or coffee at very reasonable prices.
The reason for four stars only is the breakfast was not great. The only thing that appealed to us was toast, flakes or an omelette that was so small it looked like a banana sitting on the plate (best to order 2). There was no fruit or yoghurt and the coffee was very bitter where it had been sitting stewing in an urn for ages. However, the evening menu was delicious (try the prawn fritters). The bar area was nice too, although it is in the process of being extended. So I imagine that next year there will be a seating area added to the bar along with the stools at the bar and the existing three of four tables that are there at the moment. Must say a big hello to Ashan and Ida who served during our stay. They worked very hard serving at the bar and waiting in the restaurant. A real credit to the team.
Overall, we had a vey nice relaxing time. Thank you to all the team.
