    Fairly secluded location, which meant the beach was very quiet and peaceful. The staff were attentive and helpful with any of our queries. Renting a kayak or snorkelling equipment is cheap and can be kept for an entire day which is nice. The breakfast is included and the portion sizes are generous.

    Almost everything is good there compared to the global offer on Perhentians islands. Location is a bit remote but quiet and you have a nice beach in front of the hotel + the close Keranji beach (amazing for snorkelling). Room was comfortable and everything worked fine. Food at the restaurant is correct. Staff is generally nice and helpful. Excursions were good and quite cheap. Great value for money.
