Berjaya Redang Beach Resort, Terengganu

I have been to Redang 5 times but in a different, and 4 times in other islands nearby eg: Pulau Kapas, Pulau Perhentian and Lang Tengah. Me and my wife have a good stay in Berjaya Resort, Redang. But for my point of view, i am somehow feel overpriced and not so value for money compare to the resorts surrounding. The receptionist took really long for us to check in and eventually asked us to walk by ourself to the room without giving us the key as she told us somebody is waiting for us the room. But I almost lost and there no signage showing my room number. One thing i can surely tell that Berjaya Resort in Redang is worth to stay compare to others is their front beach which has a bigger fishes, more fishes, big coral just infront of resort which you almost don't have to dive or snorkelling so far away. The clealiness of the resort is actually below par which I hope to advise Berjaya through here to improve its clealiness.

My wife and I had the pleasure of staying for 3 nights / 4 days. We stayed in a 1 bedroom ocean view room (number 242) and the room was very nice. The resort is great for couples or families. The pool is full of kids so it may not be the first choice for a honeymoon couple… As usual in Asia for us Europeans the bed may be a little bit too firm but you just have to get used to it. The room included breakfast served in the main restaurant and the food was of very good quality. For lunch and dinner there is also a buffet with good selection and quality. If you get tired of the buffet food you can go for the a la carte dinner at the beach front restaurant or the bar light / snack food. During the days we took some of the arranged activity tours offered by the hotel. We did jungle trekking and around the island snorkeling tour. The trekking really went straight through the jungle on a small path. We arrived at a larger beach with many resorts on the other side of the island. Here there were more activities and also a local bar / club. If you are staying for more than a few days you can go across to this beach with a boat in the morning and go back in the evening or at night. The snorkeling tour was ok but not great. There were many fish to see but the water in the small bays we stopped in was not as clear as in the hotel beach. More or less the "only" way to get there is with Berjaya air, the airplanes are pretty old and don't really operate on time, so if you have a short connection on your way back, be aware and take an earlier flight.

i always spend my vocation in defferent beach resort,but this time,it's the best hotel with the best beach and sea,and i wish i can be there again,the diving service is also great,the trainer is very profesional
