Arwana Perhentian Resort”
My stay was a very plesent one at Arwana Perhentian Resort. The resort was newly renovated and furnished with swimming pool facilities even though facing the beach. The resort has its own jetty for transfer to Kuala Besut(mainland), taxing to other part of the islands or going snorkeling. Infact it has been the main jetty for the entire beach. The staffs are very friendly and helpful and there are fire shows at night. My last day transfer to mainland was late due to fully booked for the earlier boat and have to wait for almost 3 hours. The resort have provided complimentary drinks and sandwiches during our wait and manage our ride when the tranfer arrive at the jetty. It is perhaps our best family island outing and a delighted memorable experience.

Spacious Room, Friendly Staff”
Room is very nice and spacious, got 2 king beds. The resort is newly renovated and the renovation is still ongoing but no noise at all. Breakfast buffet is okay. Pool is huge and nice but kinda dirty. The staff are very polite and nice and attentive. Location is okay because they have their own jetty and lots of restaurants along the beach. However the beach is not that nice, it's kinda "muddy" like the beach in Port Dickson. You can go island hopping and they will bring you to other beautiful beaches like the Long Beach etc. Overall I'm quite satisfied.

Good pick”
Basic beach front resort in the island. Beach is muddy and rocky. Room is spacious for 2pax, a little cramped up for 4pax, bud we managed as we did not want to take the family room which wasn't beachfront.

Nice "resort" for travelers looking for a calm place”
In general we had a good experience but the price/quality ratio is completely off. Rooms are very nice but unfortunately you almost dont have daylight since the window is located to the hallway where other guests will pass. The bedroom seems clean, the bathroom lacks a little bit when looking in the corners. The resort garden is very pretty.In Europe you get a premium experience for the same price, but I think it is all about expectation setting and if you know upfront that you will have a different standard here, then you should be fine. Location wise we loved the resort

Great hotel, not awful location”
Accomodation is very great. Huge and well furnished and decorated rooms and it has pool! Sadly, wifi is only in the lobby and mobile reception only digi and celcom. Staff is friendly but sometimes is not very helpful. They were able to solve quickly our issues with the room. But in regards to other requests - almost no help. We could not have lunch on arrival - their kitchen is closed till 2pm. Nearby eateries open only at 6 pm as they said. After 2 pm we found that buffet is only for private service and their cafe offers only rice and noodles with seafood/chiken + drinks on the menu. Nearby you get other eateries, some are closed till 6 pm, But some are open and we could have our lunch finally. Dinner we had also in some other cafe as you would guess. Our hotel could noot provide us with substancial meal. The beach and the sea - unlike other island and other beaches, this one does not fit for swimming. As the low tide, it is shallow with rocks, smelly and does not look clean.

Meh”
Room smells like mold . Weird bugs hanging from wall and ceiling . Bathroom window won’t close, no housekeeping cleaned room. Requested towels and it took all day to get them . Breakfast is mediocre. Tonnes of garbage on the beach. Pool closes at 7. Dinner costed double from other places down the beach and took almost an hour to prepare.
