Obviously not a luxury resort but good value for money. Cheapest on Besar island along with Mama's (70RM) and in a convenient location in between 2 great beaches: 1/Perhentian Island Resort and its beautiful white sand beach & corals in which you can see a lot just snorkelling (even friendly reef sharks). We used to go there for quiet, beach,... more

Booked the room but only stayed for 3 hours and checked out. For the price would expect more when comparing to Thailand - I would only recommend to backpackers. The beach in front of the hotel is awful and you get a free foot scrub. Others resort on the island may cost more but much better and cleaner more

We booked our stay via the webpage and emails, and it was surprisingly quick and easy after having previously tried and gotten nowhere with Sunny travels. (after completely giving up on them we got a booking confirmation 2 months after sending the request!) We stayed in a garden view room with a fan. The shack the room was in looked... more

Nice resort - great location close to the probably most beautiful spot on the island. Facilities, however, somewhat disappointing for the price: basic bungalows, bathroom to get used to, only cold water, no plugs in the rooms- to charge cameras and phones, you have to go to the reception desk. Rooms are not cleaned at all, towels have big holes,... more

Definitely paradise island, but the resort was far from paradise. The rooms were cheap at 70RM, but i have stayed in better for this price. We were booked in for 4 nights but only stayed for the one. The room was incredibly basic, cold shower, the sheets seemed like they hadn't been changed from the previous occupants. We woke up... more

Absolutely loved the resort and the food was acceptable, only problem was the bathrooms which were filthy so bring along some cleansing product. The food although not as cheap as Tuna Bay was all very nice and quite frankly when the dearest meal is $10AUD for lobster(really bugs) there is no room for complaints and the service was friendly. Definetly... more

As titled, initially when I planned it out with my girlfriend, it was supposed to be a "walk in to Long Beach, Perhentian Kecil and see if we can get a decent room" type of thing. But as days passed till the departure date, I realized that my better half was only half kidding if she were really up to... more

I travelled to Perhentian Besar with my boyfriend and a portugese couple that we met in Singapore. We hadn't booked any accomodation so we sort of just ended up at the Paradise Resort. The cabin we rented had no aircon but a big ceiling fan. It was quite warm but still very much ok. The bathroom door didn't close (haha,... more
