Best hotels & accommodations in Dungun

We are on our way back to Kuala Lumpur after spending some time in Kuala Terengganu. I stumbled upon Ulek Beach Resort on Agoda after finding out Tanjong Jara was fully booked. We just wanted a 1-night stay as my husband has a short business meeting in Dungun. After reading the reviews and few pictures in Agoda, i decided to book one Standard room in Ulek Beach resort ...

Everything that we can expect from budget hotel. Just wonder why the main lobby parked with a car (I believe own by the Hotel owner or manager). That area should be cleared so guest can load and unload their luggage under the shelter. (It was heavy rain during my stay).

I travel alot all around the world and this resort is one of the nicest places I've stayed. I booked one night but because it was so nice and the staff so friendly and nice I asked to stay another night. But unfortunately they were fully booked, as was every place in Dungun. The girl at the desk went way out of her way to get me a room. She went way above and beyond th...

The services are bad. Receptionist is rude and confusing. The homestay really needs to be clean and tidy. This is not meet our expectation at all. Dirty kicthen. The staff (name yaya) will dump all the problems to the manager / owner EnFahmi ( by phone). They just sit & doing nothing. I keep asking manager to come over reception to solve the problem but not turned up ...

I chose this hotel because of its central location as I was not driving. The location is excellent as it is near to eateries like Pizza Hut,KFC, Domino's and Marrybrown. There is also a roti canai restaurant in front of the hotel and some local stalls nearby. It is an old hotel but they have refurbished the bathroom and the room. The room that I stayed had a window air...

Over was super friendly, gave him a call to find the location. Room was clean, good to sleep, but ambiance could have been better. Bathroom could use a bit of cleaning / touch up. Less than a minute walk would bring you to the beach, dont think its for bathing though, waves looked rough.

This was our second visit to Tanjong Jara resort in Dungun. It is one of the best managed hotels/resorts in Malaysia, being part of the YTL group. The staff is very attentive, was aware that we had been there before. Although it's quite a long drive from Kuala Lumpur (about 4-5h), it's well worth the trip. Dungun itself is a quiet town, but you really don't need to go ...

It is a comfortable hotel. Large room and basically clean. However for the kind of price we paid (RM172 per night), we would expect a better facilities. The facilities are basically those that we can find in much cheaper hotel. At least a mini fridge would be sufficient. And a nice (not torn and almost broken) iron board should be alright. Nonetheless, we had a nice st...

Traveler impressions of Dungun
Great place to go for Sea Sports and relax with choice of Island hopping, Diving, Snorkelling, Kayaking etc.
Visited during the muslim fasting month so most shops were closed and acivities were at a bear minimum.
It is a beautiful town .near to the beach and beautiful ocean. The local foods are good and the people are very friendly.
Food is every where you can find and cheap...Local food is the best dish to try with reasonable price and great taste!!
Excellent seafood serve in CB Wee seafood restaurant. Many visitors all over the world give a thumb up after patronise it.
Dungun is in East Malaysia which is under the opposition party. However I was pleasantly surprised by the economic development of the place.
