If you can afford it, go for Avillion. I can't comment about the rooms as I hv not stayed there, but the surrounding view is really nice with some lookout point. Actually non guest are not allowed to roam around the chalet area but somehow I managed to do it discreetly. The surrounding view of Legend is just so-so/basic. Room is nice and comes with open concept shower but that's about it. For me, Avillion wins hands down. Some Avillion shots here... http://www.pbase.com/tsbok/port_dickson . Hope this helps.

OK I've been to both. Avillion overall is nicer, it has a resort feel to it with nice surroundings and landscaping, several pools to choose from including one adults only pool plus the pools are open 24/7 so you can go skinny dipping at 3am if you want. There is a petting zoo for kids, with a peacock that goes around when it feels like it, you can play Wii Sports at the beach hut if you're bored of staying in your room/beach etc. The beach is also maintained by the hotel staff, so the sand is clean although the water is yucky. Breakfast is nicer at Avillion IMO. The open shower concept is nice for a day or two but stay there a few times and it gets old

The down side is the place is old, I first went there back in 1998 I think and it hasn't really changed much in 10 years although the place has been refurbished over time.

Legend is much newer and also much bigger. There's only one pool and they don't bother much about landscaping. The rooms themselves are nice and big but it feels very much like a regular hotel, not a beach side resort like Avillion. Most of the water chalets are made of concrete so it feels sturdier.

On the down side there's no beach at Legend. There's a huge construction project next to it, which is an eyesore if you're on that side of the hotel. The hotel attracts tourist by the bus loads, but because of the size of the hotel it doesn't feel full.

Overall if the price is the same I'd go to Avillion. I've been to Legend only once and don't plan to go there again. I've been to Avillion since 1998 and will continue to do so.

i know where to go already... thanks for your comments!! will try to book avillion...!!!

thanks ya!!

i been avillion water chalet be4 and also stay at water chalet room type, damn nice, me and my wife is soooooo love it very much hhahhah, and their service also good, food not bad. but only eat breakfast lah hahahahah coz near there also can go out eat .

haha yea..the food for buffet breakfast is okay but then to eat at those restaurants a bit the pricey, going out to the nearby town area is better

Apparently Legend is the rip off version of Avillion.
My friend working in PWC went to Avillion first then went to Legent for their conference. She told me that Legend is a total rip off. They copy the Avillion ads. It doesn't even come close to Avillion standard. Well, their agent must have con them la! lol

actually the best room is water villa, they got 1bedroom water villa and 2 bedroom water villa, if u want to go for honeymoon, my advise is at least go for premium water chalet or best of all, choose the 1bedroom water villa.
i hv voucher to save ur money, do call me if u want

plz visit my blog at http://thelegendwaterchalets.blogspot.com for more details

Bro,

Drive there lor... What you mean how to go there by? lol
Avillion is famous for their Water Chalets. Go for the Water Chalets! They are those on the water!
The other rooms are nice also but you don't get to be on the sea. Premium Water Chalet I think it means
no obstruction... you get the Sea frontal all to yourself.
Not sure about the price. Call them up! It could be cheaper during non busy months!

Saturday got Night Market! And you wouldn't be bored in Avillion cause you just feel like lazying around all the time.

Bro... don't go for Legend man!
Friends from PWC went there and it's awful.
The year before they went to Avillion and this year they went to Legend.
They said it's a rip off version. But if it fits your budget then ok la.

might be ur frenz got a bad days over there..

as 4 my chalets is fully owned by my fren n not under management..
guest can check in as earliest as they want n can check out as late as they prefer..
price is much2 cheaper compare 2 legend itself..

i've got lots of guest from many forums..
so far they are satisfied n happy wit my service..
i even got my own regular guest which wil come many times in the same year..

i believe different peoples got different views..

juz my 2 cents..

peace..

If get the room from you, is the any room service? towel etc provide?
Need how many day advance booking from you?
Do I still check in thru the reception? or you provide the key and I just walk in?
How do I pay? thru the hotel or directly to you?
