Paya Beach Resort, Pulau Tioman

#2023travelwish Finally get a chance to visit Pulau Tioman after 3 years of pandemic with my family. We had so much fun activities there such as snorkelling, swimming riding atv and climbing mountain. We booked our personal boat for snorkelling and island hopping.My family got really lucky as they saw sharks at the last stop of islands. You can bought some breads for fish feeding during snorkelling. Surprisingly, they sold egg bubble waffle and milk tea in the island too and the stall was easy to spot. You can continued swim in the swimming pool of the resort which is just outside of your room. Overall it was a memorable trip in 2022 and I had already planned to visit again in 2023 with my friends. My 2023 travel wish is Tokyo, Japan.

getaway visiting local

quick and easy short trip to kampung tekek with future doctors. Had a very lovely time interecting with the locals and follow up with the locals health status. Suprisingly, there are so many underaged teenagers who is depressed due to their lifestyle #spooktaculartrip #tripblazers #fallingforfall #awesomepic #couplestrip #mytripvlog

A mist visit Island in Malaysia!

Pulau Tioman - Paya Beach Resort

Tioman Trip - First time pergi ke pulau di Semenanjung Malaysia. Bergerak seawal 5.30am dari Setia Alam ke Mersing Jetty. Jarak sekitar 370km dengan masa perjalanan 4jam 30min. 10am sampai dekat Mersing Jetty, sempat bersarapan di gerai depan Jeti. Lupa la nama gerai. Minum kopi o ais (RM1.50) + nasi campur (RM7). Rating: 3.5⭐️ 11.30am bertolak ke Pulau Tioman menaiki feri Cataferry, harga one way RM80 (standard seat); return RM160. Tempoh perjalanan 1jam 15minit. Duduk ikut seat numb, da cabin compartment, bersih, aircond sejuk. Rating: 4⭐️ Kami telah book untuk menginap di Paya Beach SPA & Dive Resort selama 3 hari 2 malam. Pool view chalet with 2 queen bed, stay untuk 3 org. Package seperti berikut: RM390 for 1 pax non diver (include accommodation, 2x breakfast, 2x buffet lunch, 2x buffet dinner, halfday snorkeling and complimentary recreational activities) RM706 for 1 pax diver (include accommodation, 2x breakfast, 2x buffet lunch, 2x buffet dinner; 4 dives + dive equipments) Harga di atas sudah termasuk jetty fee of RM5 and Pahang state gov sustainability tax RM3. Meal rating: Breakfast: 3.5⭐️ agak banyak pilihan Lunch: 3⭐️ makanan habis tak kena topup Dinner 3.5⭐️dishes + BBQ lamb or beef Room rating: Superior Pool View, lengkap ada bottle water, kettle, tv, bilik spacious, ➡️ 3.5⭐️ tapi day 2 and 3 air di bilik mandi ada keruh sikit. Check out time 11am. Rating aktiviti: Diving (dive centre time management need a lot of improvement, waktu rehat antara first n second dive perlu mencukupi) kenapa time management penting, sebab berlaku d mana bersedia jam 2pm tp jam 3pm+ baru bertolak, kesannya balik lewat ke darat dekat 6pm. With that I sincerely will rate the services 3⭐️ only. For non diver, mandi pool, mandi laut, snorkeling, catching sunset, aktiviti pantai (bola tampar) dan lain² yang berkenaan. Apa² pun, pulau ini boleh dijadikan tempat utk sesekali keluar daripada kesibukan kota raya. Cuaca ketika di sini, ada panas ada hujan dan ada angin yg sederhana kencang ditambah dengan lautan agak bergelora. Day 3, check out, lunch di cafe dekat jetty. ambil ferry jam 2.30pm dan tiba di Mersing Jetty 5pm. Perjalanan agak lama sebab ferry akan singgah ke 2 lagi lokasi untuk turun dan naikkan penumpang. ✔️ Pulau Tioman - sebuah pulau bebas cukai yang terletak di pantai timur Semenanjung Malaysia. Tanpa membuat perbandingan yang ketara dengan mana² pulau lain di Malaysia, pulau ini agak menarik untuk staycation. Daya tarikannya juga kuat bagi pengunjung muda tempatan dan pengunjung dari Eropah. #ykk2022 #staycation #tioman #island #pahang #travel #payabeach #beach #tripblazers

The best diving place in the world!#diving

Heaven’s In Malaysia

In my opinion, if you like long wide beaches fringed with coconut palm trees, with fine wire sand and aquamarine water, the closest you can get in Tioman is Juara beach. But you just cannot stay there. The Sandflies will eat you. Salang beach also has fine white sand, coconut trees and the most azure water in the island, but to many broken corals in the sand, too overbuilt and it has Sandflies and also little bugs in the water that bite you (but don't leave itchy bites like the Sandflies). The beach at Berjaya has yellowish coarse sand, but it is long, fringed with palm trees and probably less sand flies. Ayer Batang is a small beach with fine white sand and Sandflies, and lots of bugs in the water. I did not descend upon the Tunamaya beach, but there is no way I would pay their prices to be isolated at a very small beach that is over built, no matter how impressive their very marketed view of the twin peaks is from the island. The food overall is quite great, but avoid eating at the resorts. You will save money and enjoy better food if you eat at the local places located everywhere. Have a good trip and do patronise the local restaurant within a walking distance from the entrance to Berjaya, if you're going there. #tioman #island #pahang #berjaya #malaysia #heavensgate

#beachlife#gooutside Tioman Island we got absolutely by chance, without looking for any information in advance. We just traveled around Asia for a few months and then it was Malaysia's turn. Arriving in Kuala Lumpur and staying there for a couple of days, we looked at the map and for some reason decided to go to Tioman Island, which was a great decision! Tioman Island is one of the ten most beautiful islands in the world, and fortunately, it is not spoiled by crowds of tourists. There are very few locals here, and tourists can be counted on the fingers. There are no nightclubs and wild parties here, as on many Asian islands, but there is stunning nature - mountains covered with tropical forests, azure water and rich fauna on land and in water.

Bushman Chalet Tioman - Kg Juara.👍👍👍

Getting There - Kg Juara Attractions - Seaview/beach right in front of your chalet Hotels - very clean Food & Restaurants - Foods are delicious highly recommended for family trip. We took family room, tripple room and double room. #tioman #familywithkids #snorkelingtrips #beachviewchalet

Perfect Villa!

A Villa that you truly will never forget! 💯 % to experience this stay! Comfortable and super cosy stay best of all pool! Natural breeze and feel of village stay A must to try and food is delicious!

Everybody loves holidays because during our holidays we can relax and have fun. My most recent holiday is Tioman Island is a good places to go for scuba diving and snorkering. As soon as I reached there after a long journey, I was stunned by the beatiful scenic views that I only saw pictures. I stayed in a hotel booking via trip.com right in front of the beach. We do have a package tour for our scuba diving and snorkering trip. We swam all day and return our hotel. We did so many activities which included swimming, scuba diving, boat trip etc. It was the most amazing and spectaculat experience of my life, the holiday was a perfect!

another way to celebrate ur festival holiday!

so my family and i made a plan to celebrate eid adha differently this year by going to tioman. for those who do not know how to get here, you can take ferry from Jeti Mersing, Johor. the ferry approximately take 2 hours to get you there. this island has local sellers where you can buy food and souvenirs. they also have many water activities such as scuba diving, snorkeling and island hopping. we did try for waterfall hiking. It is a bit tiring I would say but the view is worth the effort. They have many chalets or resorts depending on your budget. But me being the city girl I cannot stay in island for more than 3 days 😅

Breathtaking Island!

you can enjoy your holiday here. such a peacefull place to go and relax. the food was delicious, the view were very nice, at the back of the resort you can see the green scenery which very calm. the service and all the staff were good and friendly. the resort is so clean. Amazingly took me breath away. Simple yet you will get 2 in 1 feeling, beach and rainforest vibe. The resort has 2 type, you can choose from. You'll get to see monkeys, giant squirrels, and cool lizards with talapia in the water stream by the front door of your resort. Staffs were helpful and friendly, food were rather on pricey side so if you're up for adventure head towards the mukut village while walking over to follow the path by beach and old resort. You can also take boat to Kg Genting and chill there. Tunamaya has snorkeling packages which was really cool and the captain made sure everyone was safe and had fun. Manager of the resort was friendly and always check on their visitors safety. Only downside is that we had to wait for about 15 minutes for the resort boat to come and fetch us, but that's was all good and fix until you reached the resort and saw the beautiful beach which u can snorkle right in front of your own room.

Beach Paradise

A peaceful place for holidays. Nice place enjoy the gorgeous view. suitable for water activities such as snorkelling and diving.
