As we know, perhentian besar doesn't have a lot of resorts therefore it is good for a family vacation that needs a serenity, quietness, good sleep etc..but those who needs a lively vacation, you may choose perhentian kecil, such as long beach area.. This hotel welcomed us with asam boy drink to chill out your thirst after 30 minutes on the speed boat..but there were no TV, laundry bag, tasteless food for lunch and dinner..they should hire better chef!!!

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, lack of choice for breakfast and the beach front are one of the worst spot at the island with full of rocks and not-lived corals.

The room is not clean and no good ventilation. No WiFi in the room and very weak signal outside rooms also no coverage for GSM. No facilities at rooms (TV, Fridge, coffee maker, drinking water,...etc). Although the location of hotel is near to the beach but it is the worst compare to other resorts.

Beach is just right in front of the hotel, albeit it is not the best sightseeing beach/sand. Environment is quite so it was very suitable if you're looking for some relaxing time. WiFi was totally inaccessible during our 4 days stay, while mobile signal were bad as well. There's a recreation booth in front of the hotel to arrange your island hopping and snorkeling with very cheap price and helpful tour guide. Food was easy to find around the hotel.
