Booking & Payment

How do I book a villa?

Contact us with your dates and the number of guests. We will confirm availability, recommend the villa that fits your group and send you the payment details. Your dates are secured once the booking deposit is received.

How much is the deposit and when do I pay the balance?

A booking deposit is required to secure your dates, and the remaining balance is due 7 days before check-in. Message us for the exact amount for your dates and villa.

Is there a security deposit?

Yes. A RM500 refundable security deposit is collected before check-in and is fully refunded within 24 hours after check-out, provided there are no damages or rule violations.

What is your cancellation policy?

The booking deposit is non-refundable in case of cancellation. Postponement is allowed for valid reasons such as government restrictions or natural disaster, subject to management approval.

Do you have a minimum stay?

One night is fine. Weekends, public holidays and school holidays get booked out early, so the earlier you message us the better your choice of villa.

Your Stay

What time is check-in and check-out?

Check-in is from 3:00 PM and check-out is by 12:00 PM. Check-in is self check-in — we send you the access details one day before you arrive.

Can I check out late?

Late check-out is available on request, subject to availability, and an additional charge applies. Message us with the time you need and we will confirm the cost for your dates.

Can I check in early?

Early check-in is available on request if the villa is free the night before, and an additional charge applies. Message us with the time you would like and we will confirm before your arrival.

How do I get the keys?

Self check-in. We send your check-in details, including the door access, one day before your arrival — so you can come at your own time without waiting for anyone.

Guests & Rules

How many people can stay?

Our villas sleep from 14 up to 30 guests depending on the unit. Tell us your head count and we will recommend the right one — Gazebo Gathering for around 14, Friendship and Gathering Love for 16, Cozy Cottage, Amazing Garden, Private Garden and Golf View for 18, and Grand Bungalow Retreat for large groups up to 30.

Do children count as guests?

Yes, every guest counts towards the villa capacity, children included. Please include them in your head count when you enquire so we recommend a villa with enough space and beds.

Can I add extra people after booking?

Rather than squeezing extra guests into a villa, we will move you to a larger unit that fits everyone comfortably. Message us as soon as your numbers change and we will check what is available.

Can we party or sing karaoke?

Yes — every YUSSY villa has KTV and a big BBQ area, and groups celebrate here all the time. We only ask that you keep the noise down after 11:00 PM, as the villas are inside a residential resort area.

Can I smoke or bring my pet?

All villas are 100% smoke-free indoors — please smoke outside. We are also a pet-free property, so unfortunately pets cannot be brought in.

Can we play fireworks?

Yes, fireworks are allowed — but only in the open area, well away from the villa, cars, trees and any roof. Please note that fireworks are used entirely at your own risk, and guests are responsible for any injury or damage caused.

Facilities

Is the swimming pool private?

Yes. Every YUSSY villa has its own private pool for your group only — it is not shared with other guests, and it is available throughout your stay. The pool is a standard 1.2m depth throughout, comfortable for adults and easy to keep an eye on the children.

Do you provide towels and toiletries?

Yes, towels and basic toiletries are provided.

What do I need to bring for BBQ?

We provide the BBQ pit, net and skewers. Guests prepare their own charcoal, lighters and food. There are shops and supermarkets a short drive away in Alor Gajah.

Is there a kitchen?

Yes, every villa has a fully-equipped kitchen with a fridge, cooking facilities and utensils, so groups can cook their own meals.

Is there parking?

Yes, free on-site parking is available. Capacity varies by villa — tell us how many cars you are bringing and we will confirm for your unit.

Is there WiFi and air conditioning?

Yes, all villas come with free WiFi and air-conditioned bedrooms.

Is breakfast included?

No breakfast is provided, but with a full kitchen and BBQ area most groups cook their own meals. There are also plenty of restaurants nearby.

Location

Where exactly are the villas?

All our villas are inside A’Famosa Resort, Alor Gajah, Melaka — about a 5 minute drive to A’Famosa Water Theme Park and Safari Wonderland, and roughly 40 minutes from Melaka city centre.

What is there to do nearby?

A’Famosa Water Theme Park, Safari Wonderland and the golf course are all within the resort. Melaka’s Jonker Street and historic centre are about 40 minutes away by car.

Do I need a car?

It is much easier with one. The villas are spread across the resort and the nearest supermarkets and restaurants are a short drive away, so most groups drive or arrange e-hailing.

Still have a question?

Have a look at the full house rules, or just ask us directly.
