DoubleTree by Hilton Damai Laut Resort carries Hilton's DoubleTree brand on one of the quieter stretches of the Perak coast. The resort is set on the beach within 425 acres of greenery at the southern reaches of Lumut, against a backdrop of tropical forest and with the Straits of Malacca and Pangkor Island in view. The property describes itself as an unspoilt nature hideaway, far from the rush and bustle of the modern world, and that framing is a fair guide to what the stay is about: sea, forest, golf and island trips rather than city sightseeing.
On Traveloka the resort is listed as a 4-star hotel with 294 rooms spread over 11 floors and three restaurants on site. Its address is Jalan Damai Laut, 32200 Lumut, in the Manjung district of Perak, Malaysia. Traveloka files it under the Lumut area of Manjung, a coastal district best known to travellers as the departure point for Pangkor Island.
The resort's own description highlights a mini water park and a long private beach with Pangkor Island as a natural backdrop, along with clear waters that it presents as good for diving and fishing. Close by, the 18-hole Damai Laut golf course gives the resort a second identity as a golfing base. Put together, this makes DoubleTree by Hilton Damai Laut Resort a resort for slow coastal stays, family holidays, golf breaks and company retreats on Malaysia's west coast.
Room categories at DoubleTree by Hilton Damai Laut Resort fall into three groups in the property's room information: standard rooms, suites and accessible rooms. The rooms draw on Perakian heritage in their décor, with contemporary fittings layered over traditional touches. The ladder below runs from the standard Deluxe rooms up to the largest suite.
The Deluxe Garden View room is the garden-facing standard category. It measures 35 square metres, has a balcony and comes with one king bed or twin beds. It can sleep two adults and two children under 12 using the existing bedding, or three adults with an additional bed. The property notes that the Deluxe rooms were refurbished in soft pastel shades with traditional fittings, mixing modern amenities with furnishings that recall Perakian heritage and hints of Mediterranean influence.
The Deluxe Sea View room matches the garden-view room at 35 square metres, again with one king bed or twin beds and space for two adults and two children below the age of 12. The difference is the outlook: each Deluxe Sea View room opens onto a private balcony facing the Straits of Malacca. For travellers who chose a beach resort for the view, this is usually the category to compare first.
The Junior Suite adds a separate living room and a spacious work area, with views of the sea and Pangkor Island. Warm, muted tones and contemporary fittings set a calm mood, and the property positions this suite as suitable for business travellers who want room to work as well as relax. It also suits couples or small families who would like a separate sitting area.
The Damai Suite is the resort's largest listed room type at 200 square metres, with views of the Straits of Malacca. It has separate living and dining areas, a spacious bath, a separate shower and toilet area, and one king bed, with a maximum of two extra beds. The property states that prior reservation is required for this suite, so plan ahead if you have your heart set on it.
Accessible guest rooms are designed for guests who need additional space and support. According to the property, all accessible rooms are on the second floor near the lift, and they add lowered storage, handrails and an accessible bathroom to the standard room amenities. The property also notes that photos may not reflect the specific accessible room type, so confirm the features you need with the resort before arrival.
Traveloka's listing confirms air conditioning, a TV and a hairdryer among the in-room facilities. Exact bed configurations and amenities can vary by room, so check the room details on the booking page before you confirm.
Facilities at DoubleTree by Hilton Damai Laut Resort, as listed on Traveloka, lean towards leisure and outdoor activity. The headline items are:
For business guests, the resort describes extensive meetings and events facilities, including 1,860 square metres of event space and an 885-square-metre ballroom for corporate functions such as presentations, award nights, team-building activities and breakout sessions.
The beach itself is a key part of the experience. The property describes a long private beach facing Pangkor Island, and its location gives easy access to nearby islands, snorkelling bays and fishing waters. If any specific facility is essential to your trip, check the current facility list on the Traveloka page, as operating hours and availability can change by season.
DoubleTree by Hilton Damai Laut Resort sits on Jalan Damai Laut south of Lumut town, on the coast facing Pangkor Island. The property positions itself as a gateway to nearby islands, including Pangkor Island and Marina Island. Distances below come from the area information on the Traveloka listing:
Most guests arrive by road. The property's directions from the Ipoh side follow the Lebuhraya Ipoh-Lumut to the A12 at Ayer Tawar, then Route 60 and Jalan Damai Laut. From the North-South Expressway, the property suggests exiting at Changkat Jering, heading to Trong, then driving via Pantai Remis and Segari before turning right at Jalan Teluk Senangin and left onto Jalan Damai Laut. Traveloka's listing does not show an airport transfer service, so plan your own car hire or taxi for the final leg. Travellers coming from Singapore can compare flights to Malaysia on Traveloka and continue to Lumut by road.
The resort's location along the southern reaches of Lumut also places it near what the property describes as the only turtle sanctuary on Malaysia's west coast, at Segari, which makes an easy half-day outing.
Traveloka lists three restaurants at DoubleTree by Hilton Damai Laut Resort, and room service is available. The property's own description invites guests to try special cuisines prepared at the resort, but outlet names and opening hours are not included in the listing, so check with the front desk on arrival for the current line-up.
Breakfast is not automatically included in every rate; Traveloka's listing indicates a breakfast charge, so look at whether your chosen room rate bundles breakfast before you book. Families staying several nights may find a breakfast-inclusive rate simpler.
Beyond the resort, the property points guests towards fresh seafood at Pantai Remis town and the fishing village of Kuala Sepetang. Lumut and Seri Manjung, with the Aeon Mall Seri Manjung about 22 km away, add more everyday dining choices. If you plan to combine meals with sightseeing, you can browse things to do in Malaysia on Traveloka and build a day around an island trip or a mangrove visit.
The strongest reason to choose DoubleTree by Hilton Damai Laut Resort is the setting. The resort pairs a beachfront position and 425 acres of greenery with a view across to Pangkor Island, and the sea-view rooms and suites are designed to make the most of it.
For Singapore-based travellers looking for a road-trip or long-weekend escape in Perak, it offers a resort-style base that pairs a quiet beach with easy access to island and heritage outings.
If you would like to weigh up alternatives in Lumut, Pangkor or Seri Manjung, you can compare other hotels on Traveloka before you decide.
