Pictured above is a Cherating-locale shot — the beach or coastline this stay sits on, not the property itself. We’re sourcing licensed photos of the buildings and will swap them in.

A large hillside-and-beach resort spread over 6.5 hectares, best known for its two enormous swimming pools — the single most-praised thing about a stay here. Most rooms look over the sea or the pools. The honest catch: it’s an older property and reviews are mixed, with recurring notes about tired rooms and upkeep. Come for the pools and the space and the value, not for a polished modern resort.

Our independent tip

Read very recent reviews before booking — the pools are genuinely good, but room condition is the common complaint, so it pays to check the latest photos and, if possible, book a recently refurbished room. Great for a group that will live in the pool; less so if you want a smart room.

Yes — it sits on the coast over 6.5 hectares, a short drive from the main Cherating village strip, with most rooms overlooking the sea or the pools.

Is The Legend Resort Cherating worth it?

For the price and the two big pools, it can be — especially for groups and families who’ll spend the day in the water. It’s an older resort with mixed reviews on room upkeep, so set expectations accordingly and check recent photos before booking.
