From the moment we book the ferry ticket from Taman Tamadun Islam, Terengganu, everything and everyone was so kind and welcoming. Our first time here in Redang and it was a fabulous one with all the kind and helpful sincere staffs from Laguna Redang. Highly recommended and will definitely return to this paradise! They have a warong near our room and we had their food for 3nights. Even have prata and burger ramlee live station! Perfect paradise for me and my family.
Great experience. Private beach ( Romantic beach) itself can cater all activities for families with young kids including snorkeling. Insane view with pristine beach. Great meals for the full board option. Portion was enough to fill an additional 2 toddlers. Thumbs up for sekochi restaurant s dinner. Make sure you book early.
Tanjung Jara Resort Review – A True Malaysian Paradise
Tanjung Jara Resort is one of my favorite places to stay, and I’ve checked in multiple times because of its exceptional service and overall experience.
Service & Hospitality – Truly Outstanding
The staff here are incredible—warm, attentive, and always ready to make your stay special. From check-in to check-out, every detail is handled with care, making you feel valued and at home.
Accommodation – Luxury with a Traditional Charm
The rooms are beautifully designed with a mix of traditional Malay architecture and modern comfort. Spacious, clean, and well-maintained, they offer the perfect retreat with stunning views. The open-air bathrooms add a unique and luxurious touch to the experience.
Beach & Scenery – Absolute Tranquility
The resort is set along a pristine, quiet beach with golden sand and clear waters. It’s perfect for relaxing, taking long walks, or simply enjoying the sound of the waves. The natural beauty of the place makes it feel like a true escape from the world.
Overall Verdict
Tanjung Jara Resort is a place I keep coming back to because it never disappoints. From the service to the beautiful surroundings, everything about it is perfect for a peaceful and luxurious getaway. Highly recommended!
Everything is relative. For perhentian, barat is one of the cleaner hotels around. But for the price I paid during super peak season, one would expect cleaner services. I waited hours for the room to be ready, which I can understand as the night before was fully booked and I arrived before the official check in time. However, when I was finally able to check into my room,, the shampoo packet from the previous guest wasn't picked up and the drain hole still had hair. Towels were also damp.
Once we got over this initial disappointment, I was quite happy for the rest of my time there. Room was well equipped with a kettle, hair dryer, fan and super cool air conditioning, the latter was crucial to alleviate the record heat we are experiencing.
Location was superb as well. You can go snorkeling at the beach outside the neighboring hotel, where you can see baby sharks hanging around the rocks. I was assured by the staff that momma shark don't hunt there. I guess they are right since I lived to write this review.
Those a little braver can swim out to turtle point (life jacket recommended). Every morning, loads of boats arrive here to drop off eager snorkelers hoping to catch a glimpse of turtles. It's nice to have the option to go anytime at your leisure, staying at barat hotel nearby.
The hotel itself and it's location was great. The weather was sunny, making the water activity do-able and nice. Thanks for the hardworking lifeguard at the beach and attentive restaurant waiter/waitress. However, the service at the reception and manager handling a paid room upgrade should be improved further for a better guest experience. Not a 5-star experience. Lol. Hope they can improve on the communication and better room coordination. Marriott/Shangrila will do this in a much better way. Maybe it's me who put higher expectation on Taaras
Is this resort deserve a repeat? Maybe NO. Anyway tq for the experience
Hotel located near to pasar payang, mayang mall, pantai batu buruk & a lot of shop & food around the corner. Friday got pasar malam very near to the hotel so can try local food. Hotel is clean & nice bed. Staff are very friendly & helpful. Got room service until 2am & the food serve quite good. Try their spring roll. Really good & crispy. Spend 2 night here & definately will come again. I can see the famous bridge from my room too.
I chose this hotel because the hotel i usually booked was fully occupied. Location wise in town, but no quite central. I am happy they fulfilled my request for upper floors with a nice view. My room was at the 6th and we had beautiful drawbridge view. Room was very clean with basic amenities.
Pros:
- Modern design, clean room
- Beautiful view
- Cantek Sekali cafe is just across the street. Must try!
- Friendly staff. Thank you for capturing nice photos of us :)
- Complimentary caramel salted cofee/ teh tarik for certain time at lounge area
Cons:
- Limited parking on first come first serve basis
- OKU parking was misused by guests because of the lack of parking space
- No hair dryer
- No TV channel, unless you have your own Netflix account and etc.
- No breakfast. They literally have no kitchen. You have to plan your meals.
- Location can be a bit confusing
Good bed, new hotel. But the toilet floor is same from shower to toilet thus when u shower the water runs and wet the whole room. A bit noisy when u heard a few bike racing in the morning.
Hard to park as there is no dedicated parking space, so quite limited as only public parking that available.
We stayed at Mimpi Perhentian Resort Hotel at the end of June for 3 days and 2 nights, and we regretted not booking a longer stay. Our sea view triple room was perfect for our little family of three, including our six-year-old boy. The resort offers the best views on Long Beach, and we loved the chill vibes in the morning and the lively atmosphere in the evening and night.
Booking all our island trips through the hotel was super convenient since we could charge everything to our room. We did snorkeling during our island tour, which is an absolute must-do when you’re on the island. The rooms were exceptionally clean, with comfortable beds, strong air conditioning, and great water pressure for showers. The saltwater hotel pool was also charming and a great spot to relax.
We appreciated having the staff handle our luggage and bags, bringing them from the jetty at Kuala Besut all the way to our room at the hotel itself, which was superb! The boat ride to the island was also great, seeming more luxurious than the ones offered by the other resorts on the island.
Each and every single staff throughout the hotel was amazing and friendly; making our stay even more enjoyable. Breakfast was just okay, but no worries! There are plenty of cafes just a stone’s throw away with affordable, really good food covering almost all cuisines. A beautiful stroll away, these cafes added to the charm of our stay.
Mimpi Perhentian truly is a dream come true. We can’t wait to return!
The hotel is located in the mid-levels. The environment is beautiful, the restaurant is beautiful, the food is first-rate, the waiters are very friendly, understand Chinese, there are two-person boat hire, you can go out to the sea to watch the sunset, the beach is beautiful, the water is crystal clear, hope to come again soon

AAnonymous UserLocated just infront KTCC which is very convenient for us to sightseeing. Not only that, it also near to Mayang Mall which only located around 800m fro the premise. Plenty of restaurants within walkable distance. If your room facing left side of the building, the scenery is amazing.
The cleanliness can be improved. No free disposable toothbrush provided but they supply head cap, bar soap and disposable small plastic which very awkward.
During check-in, even though we arrived at around 3.30pm,the room is still not ready and they negotiate to DOWNGRADE our room which very irritating to us. We demand to get what we booked and they comply.
The parking is provided but limited.
AAnonymous UserHi. So far I stayed in this hotel, the service was good, the room is clean, near to the shopping centre, easy to get food, easy to access to anywhere since it’s in the middle of the town area, the staff are friendly and nice … i would recommend everyone to book this hotel 😁👍🏻

VVicky China WalaThis resort is wonderful place to stay in a very good budget compared to other resorts around. The room was pretty clean and comfortable. 24/7 air conditioning and water heating facility available. The hotel staff was super kind and friendly.
You can enjoy drinks at the bar with Akmal and gossip with nice music ❤️
They serve amazing food and offer snorkeling trips , boat taxis, kayak and other facilities.
