Beach Hotels in Pahang, Malaysia

This is my second visit to this hotel. Everything is fine. I went there with my bf to celebrate my bf birthday, hotel had provided us a cake in the room upon arrival and also arranged us a ground floor room upon requested. Receptionist is nice and can validate tng card at the lobby everytime before leave the property. Cons - 1. the hotel has 2 parking space, one is right beside the hotel lobby another one is a bit far from the hotel lobby but it is still within walking distance, just that you need to walk under the hot sun. 2. The breakfast time is from 630am-1030am and we woke up late which reach the breakfast restaurant at around 10.22am and the receptionist telling us that ‘the breakfast section is closing soon and you only have around 8mins left you still want to have your breakfast?’ Which we feel rude as we had purchased for that and we also reach the place before the breakfast time end and there are still guests eating breakfast which we don’t see the point for doing the countdown thing. (We never work in hotel before which don’t know if doing this countdown thing is correct or not, but we just don’t feel comfortable with it) Improvement - hope hotel can arrange for buggy service for guest that park their car at the far parking space.

I called one day earlier to request early checkup. It was entertained however due to system breakdown still required to wait almost one hour in the car. To their credit they still did their best. According to the Trip package I was supposed get welcome drink but it was not there.  The nasi lemak rendang so good but the breakfast spread so limited. The renovation thingy quite a disturbance, need to walk all the way to access beach, no Deli yet, lobby not ready too. However they already informed that in advance so it was acceptable.  During housekeeping, our room key that was used to power up the room was taken, but the concierge sent a new one once the complaint lodged. They also restock only one bottle of mineral water instead of two, but the housekeeper comply with our request for another without much hassle.  I did not have enough time to try their fitness centre but one visit showed it was wide and adequate. I hope in the future it will be for 24 hours like other hotel and accessible with keycard.  All in all I will give 4 stars. Need to improve on breakfast spread. Special shoutout for Mr Kamarul our concierge/porter for excellent service. Will come again later.

Cleanliness: I would rate the cleanliness a 2 due to the poor maintenance and housekeeping. None of the electrical outlets were functioning properly, and there was a noticeable electrical sound. For those traveling with children, please be extra cautious. During our sightseeing trip from 1 pm to 10 pm, we returned to find the towels we had used earlier that morning, wet and folded on the table instead of being replaced with fresh ones. Additionally, our used cup had not been washed and was left untouched. Location & Amenities: The location was great, and the kids had a fantastic time, especially in the pool area. The pool is spacious, clean, and convenient for parents to relax while their kids enjoy themselves. The surrounding environment is excellent and truly mesmerizing. We were happy to sit back, relax, and enjoy the soothing sound of the waves—it was incredibly calming. The seaside area is ideal for large family gatherings or company events, with plenty of space available. Service: I would rate the Front Office Staff at 4, especially Mr. Aftar, Mr. Azlan, and Mr. Rahmat, who were very helpful. However, I had a negative experience with Ms. Y (name withheld), who was unhelpful and lacked empathy. We were planning to shorten our stay from 3 days/2 nights to 2 days/1 night due to heavy rainfall, flooding in some areas, and car issues. We asked her at the front desk, after consulting Trip.Com, if we could shorten our stay. Instead of showing understanding, she kept saying she couldn't assist and that the Manager on Duty was unavailable. She directed us to deal with Trip.Com the following day, which we understood. However, when I asked if, in case Trip.Com approved our request, we could check out later (around 1 or 2 pm), she refused. She claimed they couldn’t offer a late check-out as the hotel was fully booked. I was shocked, as I was giving up an extra night and yet wasn’t granted even a late check-out at 12:30 pm, and yet she was mentioned it will be chargeable. To my surprise, I later checked online and saw plenty of rooms available and an empty pool. This was disappointing. Just imagine, i am planning to give away my extra night and when i wasnt able to get a slightly late check out due to fully booked ? what ridiculous is this ? IF, we requested late check out on the actual check out date, i totally understand . But this is another way round and she left me speechless. On a positive note, Mr. Aftar, Mr. Azlan, and Mr. Rahmat were understanding and helpful. Despite not asking for much, their suggestions, empathy, and sincerity made a significant difference in our stay. It was because of them that we decided to continue our stay and cancel our initial plans. A big thank you to them for their kindness and helpfulness, always checking in to see if we needed assistance and offering thoughtful suggestions. Overall Experience: Our overall stay was very good and enjoyable. The kids loved the pool and the sightseeing views. The location is fantastic, with a breathtaking view of the sea, providing a truly relaxing experience. Special thanks also to the IRD staff at the restaurant for kindly helping us store our frozen food.

The hotel room is clean with wide space, water filter machine is just outside our room.. one of the room we booked had a view of the Kuantan river and 188 tower, which is pretty cool.. another one is a city view, sound proof is weak, can hear the mosque praying sound very clearly.. summore they started to pray from 5am non stop until almost 7am, Ughh.. need to opt for quiet room.. water heater took a while to warm up with hot shower.. hotel is just beside the river, can take a stroll by the river, a lot of nice cafe nearby as well!! Anyway, worth the price~

Our stay was absolutely magic. The location is stunning. The beaches are pristine and water is clear and warm. There are activities for everyone: golf course, games room, pool tables, swimming, scuba, snorkeling, fishing and more. We took advantage of the great conditions for snorkeling and managed to see young sharks and turtles. The garden chalets are clean and comfortable with air conditioning and the grounds are beautifully maintained. Most activities are within waking distance but they have open carts to transfer you around the resort if you so choose. Transfers to/from Tekek jetty are also included. All the staff went above and beyond to assist us during our stay. Thank you Adriana and everyone at Berjaya Tioman Resort for a once in a lifetime trip.

Stayed 5 days. Staff service is friendly and warm. Their rates for island hopping and snorkelling trips are the best so there is no need to look elsewhere. The standard rooms at the pond areas are surrounded by monitor lizards, great for those who want to get up close and personal co living with the dragons. Else, the rooms near the beach and pool are great options. Swimming pool needs more constant cleaning as the water is murky. Buffet breakfast has good choices but is repetitive if u stay for more than 2 nights.

Kids will have fun here! Just maybe if entrance to beach can be made accesable to guest as we have to take a long walk to go to the beach.everything else is perfect. Clean beach i must say,and safe. Just dine at downstairs cafe its not pricey at all and the food delish. Plus point if hotel could provide complete amenities like tooth brush and shower cap.

It was a wonderful time at the secluded resort. would like to point out a number of points for future residents: Positives: 1. the houses are very nice! Even though they are a bit outdated, they are clean and still stylish. Everything you need is there, the staff carefully collected all the necessary hygiene supplies. Bathrobes, slippers - everything is there. 2. The territory of the hotel is just gorgeous - wild fauna, the first coastline, stunning views. Very nice pool. 3. Tranquility - no noisy parties - keep this in mind. This was a giant plus for us. 4. The staff is great. Very attentive, cordial, always happy to help But there were a couple things that are still worth mentioning: 1. The biggest problem is the restaurant. Please solve the problem with the menu. Every time we had to guess - what is there and what is not. But everything that was, was delicious 🙂 Also - the staff is very cordial and helpful, but still slow - you have to wait a long time for your dish, and to invite the waiter is not always quick. 2. activities and SPA are expensive. I understand that the resort, but still in conditions of monopoly the price is overpriced. 3. There were stains on the bed linen, bathrobes and towels. This should also be noted. But these minuses do not interfere with the enjoyment of this beautiful place! I recommend everyone to visit this beautiful resort!

PRO Hotel location walking distance to beach and close to popular dining places & cafes. Helpful & Attentive staff. CONS This is an aging hotel and the maintenance can`t catch up as the years progresses. Our first night was terrible when we found out that the bed is full of bed bugs. The next morning they apologised for the issue and we were transferred to a new room. There always old marks & old stains on the bedsheet, blankets, toilets, walls but might be acceptable for some. No phone in the room, you have to call using your own phone if you want to reach the front counter. Breakfast 2.5/5. Again cleanliness is the issue, bowls, plates, you will find some particles in them. And the food is just average and cold. OVERALL : Just ok, below my expectation. WILL I RETURN? : Maybe no

Pro: Clean room Ample parking Near beach Friendly staff Good for cat lover. Owner has more than 100 cats of all sort of breed Con: No lift to higher floor A bit dark surounding at night
