I have visited Pelabuhan Ratu a couple of times before, but this was my first trip to Cisolok, where we stayed at the Ocean Queen Resort. Initially, I was a bit surprised by the entrance, as it looked a little untidy with many dry leaves. The access road also requires caution, as it is quite narrow and features sharp turns on the descent. However, all those concerns vanished the moment I saw the resort itself; it is absolutely beautiful, expansive, and impeccably clean.
The resort offers different types of villas depending on your needs. Since I was traveling with my small family, we booked a garden room. The bungalow consists of one room equipped with standard amenities, including two towels, a thermos, and two glasses. While there was no electric kettle, slippers, or toothbrush provided, they do supply liquid soap in the bathroom. They also thoughtfully provide an umbrella and a floor broom should you need them.
The resort features a private beach and a restaurant serving a variety of food, which we frequently ordered from whenever we felt too lazy to go out. The beach is kept quite clean, though it was disappointing to see some guests leaving trash behind despite the resort providing plenty of recycling bins nearby. There are also two swimming pools: one for children and one for adults. The adult pool is quite deep—reaching about 2.5 meters at its deepest point—so guests should take caution.
We originally planned to stay for three days and two nights, but we enjoyed the atmosphere so much that we extended our trip to five days and four nights. On our first day, we experienced an issue with the water heater in our room, but after I spoke to Bu Anita, she immediately sent housekeeping to resolve the problem so we could have hot water.
Overall, we were very happy with our stay at Ocean Queen Resort and had a wonderful holiday experience. We highly recommend this resort to anyone looking for a quiet, private getaway 🥰🌴.
