Unpleasant stay at Paya Beach Resort

Reviewed By 226belindal

The hotel is not deserving 4 stars. Hotel room & amenities: Not clean, very old, the bed sheet got stained everywhere, the hotel has maintenance equipment scattered everywhere, the pool water was slightly green colour so we do not use it at all. There are water feature next to the KOI pond that made with paint buckets. Service: Bad service, the hotel manager Rama does not want to help when we encountered problem, and he assured follow up but never come back to us. Overall, horrible experience, will never go back.

Japamala Resort by Samadhi

JapaMala is Tioman Island’s only boutique resort, and one-of-a-kind in Malaysia. This small and exclusive resort of 13 rooms is hidden amidst 11 acres of lush tropical rainforest. A one-village-one-resort property, JapaMala has its own private and quiet beach. While some charming Malay village-style villas and chalets dot the jungle and beachfront, others nestle in the most breath-taking spots.Best described as an ‘eco-luxe’ resort, JapaMala transcends the experience of living close to nature by redefining it with a touch of luxury. Designed by natural streams, steep cliffs, towering boulders and where no trees are felled, the entire resort borrows from nature its elements to offer an exceptional sense of paradise, freedom from the real world. While serious relaxation is an elusive commodity for many, one can truly succumb to the healing effects JapaMala imparts through its holistic blend of sumptuous gourmet treats, intimacy between man and nature, unique spa experiences and truly unprecedented hospitality. Many say JapaMala is not just a place, but a state of mind.

As I imagined

Reviewed By Azian A

My husband and I had a wonderful stay at Japamala Tioman and our vacation turns out as what we have imagined. We were fetched from the arrival jetty to Japamala which is only a short distance away on their speed boat and welcomed by their very friendly staff Bell and Zai and other staff already waiting at Japamala jetty which is their most iconic spot. We love the resort ambiance - feels tranquil, calm, serene and we could just lay down under the gazebo not realizing the time passes by quickly. We love love love our sea cliff chalet with the balcony overlooking the jetty. We enjoyed the daily evening drinks / cocktails served at the Mandi Mandi Restaurant cum the jetty and looked forward to it everyday during out stay. We have no complaint about the food / menu - selections from Tamarind and Tempio are equally interesting. We enjoyed the hike from Japamala to the nearby village which was not a walk in the park but was interesting and challenging nevertheless. We feel many parts of the wooden bridges should be repaired / change to make the trail safer. The only disappointment was that the trail to the view point is closed as we were told it was not safe as the wooden steps leading to the view point were broken. All resort staff were friendly and I had an enjoyable time chatting with Zai. We loved it here and we will not hesitate to come back here again in the future.

Not worth for the price

Reviewed By Tientien318

Not enough food provided during the stay. The room I booked and topped up (around RM200+) for part seaview (deluxe room) but got only part pool view. And I have been told most of the deluxe room is pool view, only 2 rooms are with a little seaview which is first come first served. I was wondering my room is similar to standard room (which stated in the information side with pool view), however the staff told me that standard room is far and without pool view, there are garden/hill view. It is a huge misleading information on website and to agent. The staff who served me is not friendly. I do not enjoy the stay, it does not worth for the money I paid.

There is room for improvement

Reviewed By hemanathanp2022

Had a 3D 2N stay , i understand that it is post pandemic now , i suggest that the resort hire more people to accommodate the incoming influx of guest. 1) Room service - Horrible , had to remind them constantly to clean the room. And the sheets of the beds were only made and changed every other day ( not daily ) ( apparently there is only 3 people working and it is difficult ) 2) Food - The menu and the waiting duration for the food at the resort café is ridiculous. The staff seemed over whelmed with the number of people and influx of orders. Apart from these 2 short comings - the location and the resort facility itself is good. will definitely consider another trip there. hopefully the food and room service issue is sorted.

Best holiday ever!

Reviewed By brendajm23

Great chalet. Clean and spacious. Delicious food..we had all our meals there...including afternoon tea...which was scrumptious. Every meal we had was tasty and did not have that sad hotel food taste. Had morning yoga with Bruce who was such fun and he was so very helpful at suggesting what else we could do ...and there were SWINGS on the beach! Nice big swings that we sat on every evening and morning and everytime we walked to the beach. We had also had the aromatherapy massage and that was simply lovely. The short snorkeling trip at pulau Renggis was great and the boatmen were kind and polite . Had a wonderful holiday and I hope to go back again one day

Sublime Experience, Best Place to Stay in Tioman

Reviewed By LarissaM3152

What a truly amazing place to stay. The people here are fantastic. They just couldn't do enough for us from the boat that picked us up at the jetty to the warm welcome on the beach. Eimah and the owner really take care of the guests. They went out of their way to cook special meals for our kids. It felt like we were staying in the home if an old family friend. Nothing was too much trouble. The rooms are simple but incredibly clean. The kids loved the bunk beds. We swam at the perfectly clean beach sorklled and went in the Kayak. They organised an excursion for us in their boat. Just a really really wonderful place to stay if you are going to Tioman this is definitely the best place to stay. Beautiful, peaceful, simple and welcoming but the warmth of the staff and the care they take make it a sublime experience

1511 Coconut Grove

Lovely beach cottages with excellent staff

Reviewed By kualabear2

We stayed here while our children attended the nearby children's nature camp and it was a lovely visit. The hotel is at a beautiful quiet site at the end of a gorgeous beach, very close to the Juara Turtle Project sanctuary. The rooms exceeded our expectations, we had a clean and spacious connecting room, with a beautiful wraparound porch with a view of the ocean. The food was good--the included breakfast was served quickly and was tasty and there was a good range of seafood and vegetable dishes for lunch and dinner. The restaurant is in a nice open-air setting, and sometimes there is live music at night, which was a nice treat. And the wi-fi even worked--a change from our last trip at a different Tioman hotel. The best part of the stay were the staff--who were very kind and friendly--they would go out of their way to find items for guests that they had forgotten to bring and help with requests to make our stay better. We'd happily come back again.

Beach Shack Tioman

The Beach Shack is a small family owned "resort", it's a laid back hippie-style accommodation with a surf atmosphere. It is owned by Tim, an Australian surfer, and his wife Izan. Here you can enjoy the beach, the sun, the palm trees, boat trips, jungle tracking. Or feel free to go fishing ,snorkeling and many others. The Beach Shack is located on Juara Beach. Juara is the nicest part of the island.

If you're looking for a getaway from the city and thinking of going on a holiday, this is the place to be. Have been here 3 times already and will keep coming back. The whole experience is just great with very affordable rates and good vibes. The people are very friendly and always willing to help.

Villea Rompin Resort & Golf

Short but pleasant stay, would return

Reviewed By ELAYTEE

Stayed here for 1 night in a superior twin room @ 170myr / £31. Overall, it was a pleasant stay. All of the Housekeeping, security, front desk, restaurant and pool attendants we spoke with were very nice. We would return for a short stay in the future. Tons of free parking available and whilst the pool is not huge its big enough for a few laps. It is also nice that the kid and adult pools are segregated a bit in my opinion. The room itself was clean and of a decent standard. The AC was good, the wifi was decent and it was fairly spacious. Its a tiny bit dated, and if you look carefully and nit pick you can find a few issues such as light switches not working, room phone not dialing, old fixtures in the bathroom and sealant/fascia coming away on the sink. None of this was a major issue though and hard to complain at this price. Breakfast was included but I assume due to not having enough guests it was not a buffet, but a set menu. We had Nasi Lemak and it whilst it was tasty, the protein was quite small and bony. This is not unique to this hotel though so maybe I need to adjust to local portion sizes instead lol. Gym was very good for a hotel gym. Clean and with decent equipment including a few free weights. AC works to an adequate standard. Beach is right at the rear of the hotel. Water was quite rough on our visit and there were a few dirty spots (e.g. what looked like a smokers area with tons of discarded butts). Its OK but hard to rate the beach as I did not stay long enough. We did not go golfing so no comment there.

Really great Host. They helped us in every situation. We had a free shuttle from the ferry to the resort what is really nice and helpful. The rooms had everything that we needed. And early in the morning at 5:30am we got breakfast and a shuttle back to the Gerry. Highly recommended.
