"Loved the staff that attended to us. They welcomed with a smiling gesture. Appreciate the staff and the house. Love the quiet ambience. Tq. Recommended to those who are planning to be there for holidays "
"Welcoming and friendly staff especially at breakfast buffet. Breakfast included a good selection of food, property in great condition and very clean."
"I would say this was with the cost for sure, but you get what you pay for. There was no sink in the bathroom and the toilet sprayer kept falling off. So it was worth it for the price tag but certainly not anything fancy. "
"Bof rapport qualit é prix très exagéré, salle de bain inondée à chaque douche, pratique quand les toilettes sont dans la même pièce...lavabo prêt à tomber "
"Truly admire the work and dedication put in to preserve the traditional heritage houses. I had a lovely stay at beautiful Setiu and wish to thank the team for their warm hospitality."
"I didnt check in. From outside, the hotel looks so scary and horrible. Poor maintainance. The shoplot is all for rent/sale. Only 1 car outside the hotel. "
"Nice place to stay on Perhentians, everything you need is available at the Barat, or a small walk to the next beach. The food options were good, really liked the BBQ.
Family sea front chalet was nice, airco and fan helped to cool down. View was a bit obstructed by the restaurant terrace. "
"Dirty hotel, the matress was very old and the room was very dirty. Seems that wasn't cleaned before the arrival. It's sad because it has the best spot on the beach. If the hotel changes and take care of the costumers it will be top but sadly, not now"

"Avoid this place. We stayed here in July 2025 for 4 days and it was a disaster.
Before arrival, no response from the property despite multiple attempts. They also provided wrong info about boat schedules from Kuala Besut (boats actually leave every 40 min).
Day 1:
The place looked abandoned,unfinished buildings, scaffolding, and garbage everywhere. No reception,just a guy at the bar watching loud videos on his phone. He didn’t speak English, so we used the translator. He refused early check-in, probably to sell us a drink during the wait.
The sea view room was dirty: stained sheets, hair and dirt in the bathroom, sewer smell, a broken mirror, and no hot water. Complaining didn’t help.
Day 2:
The day after, we asked if the problem had been fixed. He told us he hadn’t been able to fix it and that a part needed to be ordered, which would arrive the following day.
We asked for a different room, but that wasn’t possible. Other guests also stood waiting at “reception” for hours with no help.
Day 3:
A manager finally showed up and spoke English, but instead of fixing anything, he offered us snacks and a cocktail. He then said it was a public holiday and repairs would be done the next day. We were promised a room change if the issue persisted. Too late, we had only one day left and were showering using the bidet shower.
Day 4:
Shower was finally fixed.
In short:
Structure is falling apart, staff is incompetent, and hygiene is unacceptable. Save your holiday, book elsewhere."
"What a great place to stay on Perhentian island (Greater)! A real gem. Location is perfect with 3 beaches in walking distance (one right next to the accommodation). We stayed in a seafront view family room and it was amazing waking up to the beautiful view. The rooms are spacious, clean, comfy beds, plenty of pillows, fridge, AC, a big fan on the ceiling. Big screen tv is connected to wifi so we were able to watch some of our favourite programs before bed. Spacious balcony - stepping out of it -> stepping into the restaurant. Staff are super helpful, professional, friendly. We strongly recommend this place. We would definitely come back if we come to East Malaysia again.
