When we went there it was off-season so we just lazed by the pool. My advice if you'll want to enjoy the sea and sea sports go during April to October. Btw for the adrenalin junkies you could try your hand at hang-gliding with a difference. Check out www.climbmax.org for more info.

Desaru is a nice place to visit. If you get bored at the beach or pool, you can just rent a bicycle and go on a ride to a number of interesting spots.

Sungei Ringgit's seafood (about 30KM) is
great. Recommended to try!

My inital thought of the beaches in Desaru to be overused and not as beauty. I was wrong. I have fun on the beach.

We got around in our own car, so no problem.
The number of interesting spots in the area is limited.
The Fruitfarms and the Kota Tinggi waterfalls are certainly worthwhile to visit.

There is a variety of tours and marine spots available at the activities counter though i did not make use of the opportunity to participate in any, preferring to bask in the sun along the beach.
I do not know if there is a village or town nearby where guests can have dinner. Maybe the hotel can provide a shuttle service or something?

1)Detail map for driving from Desaru to resort
should be on the website. Got lost & had to call them for directions.
2)Coffeehouse food - expensive on the whole - Asian-spicy, oily; Japanese-OK. Sat BBQ-expensive.
Chinese restaurant closed during our stay - any reason?

If you like local food, my suggestion is to eat out at the nearby quiet town of Bandar Penawar; a 3 minute drive. The food is inexpensive compared to the fine establishments in the resort.
50RM will get you a seafood dinner for 2.
But this is possible only if you have a vehicle. The road to the town is actually dimly lit. The hotel staff will gladly give you directions. There is no public transport to the town from the resort.
There is also a few mini mart, stalls selling local snacks and a few restaurants. I have my lunch there on my first day. (RM20 for my whole family.)Mbr>
There is also a go-kart track nearby. The track is bumpy and the machine actually needs to be replaced. But for RM30 for 15-20 minutes of some thrills, you should'nt complain. The person in charge was kind enough to let my 2 year old daughter pillion on my kart for a few laps when there is no other kart on the track.
My advice is that you should never stay more than 2 nights here. On my previous trip, I stay for a night only.
