Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Accommodation was clean and well kept. Diving centre next door was excellent "Leisure Divers" Malay cuisine for breakfast each day was repetitive and could be better eg more fruit etc and add some western. Location was not so good in that the "beach" was mostly mud flat throughout the day with no sandy bottom and so not really suitable for casual swimming. Staff were good and friendly.

Deluxe room with poolview - Nice from the outside! Inside large room, sparsely decorated. No balcony furniture. The bed and the part of the room where the bed was smelled damp and sour. Under the bed was 2cm! of dust and dirt. The bathroom was so run down and full of mould. The door had to be kept closed to not have the smell in the room. The room was dark with strange lightning. No cosy or nice feeling at all. I'm not very picky, but would never recommend it or stay there again. The pool though was nice! Reception staff nice and helpful! The staff in the restaurant very lazy, not welcoming at all, stuck up and it felt like you were bothering them if you e.g. ordered an ice cream. They sighed in front of you and tried to give the "chore" to someone else.

BEACHFRONT hotel
Super friendly staff made the trip memorable. We had an amazing room that was beachfront with a balcony. Shower was a bit dated but we didn’t mind as we spent most of our time enjoying the island!

The worst value for money hotel in Perhentian
Not recommended to stay in this hotel again. Everything is not up to the 3 star standard that it is supposed to be except probably the pool. Half of the staff are not friendly, rooms are not worth the price and not clean up unless being told, low water pressure in the bathroom, lack of choice for breakfast and the beach front are one of the worst spot at the island with full of rocks and dead corals.

Great location for a few days R and R.
Located on the beach. The rooms are motel style with views over the central swimming pool. The rooms are basic but are of a good size and have a/c. Hotel staff are friendly and the breakfast is acceptable for the room rate we paid.
