1. Overview Of Desaru Coast Beach
Fact: all of the resorts in Desaru are actually located along the same coast. Of course, each resort has its own separate entrance, standard of quality, and price point.
For instance, the further you are from Point A, the higher the rates.
While these resorts are all on the same coast, they are not fenced or gated up. Therefore, it’s perfectly all right for guests to walk across the beach from Point A to Point D.

Point A: Desaru Beach can easily be accessed by anyone and you can drive directly to the parking area on the beach.
Let me show you some of the photos I took during my visit.
As you can see, this is a public beach, so cleanliness is not up to the standard. The beach is usually littered with trash.
It is only a 5-minute walk from the beach to Westin Desaru Resort. You can walk to the right hand side on the beach to Westin Resort as shown in below image.

5. D: One&Only Desaru Beach
- This is by far the most expensive and luxurious resort, even more so than Anantara.
- For starters, the basic room rates at One&Only are double that of Anantara.
- And while Westin and Hard Rock Resorts are both 5-star hotels, they are clearly leagues apart from One&Only.
- That is why this resort is located so far away from public areas and not as easily accessible as the other resorts.

6. Conclusion: My Final Thought
In a nutshell, the more you pay, the more you will gain in privacy and luxury.
And it makes sense. These resorts have their target market, and people will have to choose their accommodation based on their own budget.
So how do you access the nice beaches if you don’t have the budget to stay at one of the Desaru Coast resorts?
Let me share a couple of tips with you:
- If you want to access the beach located at Westin Resort Desaru, park your car at Westin Resort Desaru or Hard Rock Hotel Desaru. Once there, you can walk to the beach.
- You can also walk from Point A (public beach) to the beaches at Westin or Anantara.
