• Mr Stag (9/5): - We arrived in the morning and have been greeted and warm welcome by Emma and Nazmi..felt like home and all the staff were friendly..the location are between Kg Genting and Kg Paya..strategic location..my package are included breakfast..they serve light menu for breakfast..enough for fuel the morning day..those who breakfast like a king should order out what they served..my room located in front of beach..but I saw the others room they have mosquito net but mine aren't have..overall I can say one of recommended place to stay..they are improving their facilities now and I believe they will be more better..I wish success to them.. kudos to the staff 👏 🙌..hope to see u again soon!

• TORY (10/5): Stunning island,amazing staff allways so helpful and friendly,extremely comfortable villas we had an amazing stay and wi -
• Shaw (9/5): - Isolated Island resort. However the staff were so attentive and helpful. They would do over and above to make us happy and comfortable. You must expect that not everything can be perfect due to location. Isolated Island away from Mainland. Food was lovley and authentic Malay. More maintenance around the resort. In saying that they had just reopened after a heavy wet season.
• Thomas (9/5): - Paradies!!! Wenn es am Paradies was auszusetzen gibt, ist es dass man durchaus den angeschwämmten Müll grossflächiger aufräumen sollte
• Sabri (10/5): A lovely beach getaway. - We loved the personal touches of the staff.The food was amazing and the location was perfect. We loved that we can swim out the front of our room. If we asked for something Emma did the best to make it happen. Nothing to mention.

Une hôte très sympathique, souriante,dévouée à votre bien être et pour que votre séjour se déroule le mieux du monde, BRAVO ET MERCI Emma, toute son équipe est très gentille attentionnée, je vous recommande a 3000%. Des plats faits maison, délicieux 😋 . Nous étions seuls au monde, un souvenir mémorable, Encore Merci, c'est rare de nos jours un tel service !

• Kyra (10/5): - Een plek weg van mensen en geluid. Ik heb nog nooit op een strand gelegen, waarbij ik alleen het geluid van de golven hoorde. Het was geweldig om in deze rust op zo'n prachtige plek te verblijven. Het personeel was ook ontzettend aardig en behulpzaam. En heerlijk eten!

• Antony WING Chung (8/5): - staff are friendly... very quiet place for relaxing Location to town is a bit of challenge especially at night... walkable to town but dark thru forest
• Julie (9/5): - Bungalow sur la plage très agréable. Le prix exorbitant des bateaux taxis si on souhaite se déplacer d'un village a l'autre
• Sascha (9/5): -
• AndréAlbuquerque (10/5): Pequeno pedaço de paraíso - Pulau Tioman é um destino premium em termo de imersão na antureza, contudo os resorts localizados nas localidades são massificados, desqualificados e sem grande valor acrescentado especial. Lixo, descuido, pouca limpeza das praias, alforrecas, escassa vida animal, coral morto. Aqui temos uma pequena enseada, praia privativa linda, com areia branca limpa todos os dias, um par de árvores lindas majestuosas que dão sombra preciosa onde faz falta, rochedos lindos a ambos lados da praia dado um cenário excpvional à praia, extenso areal para banhos em alta mar e uma vida animal abundante em preia-mar. Na linha de costa mais longe mas perfeitamente acessível a nado e segura, toda esta baá é envolvida por uma pequena barreira de coral em bastante bom estado com muita diversidade de fauna e flora. O hotel está bem cuidado, as habitações são espaçosas e as vistas ao mar excelentes. Os espaços comuns são amplos, existe comida e café 24horas por dia, espeço para todos os hóspedes, bom mobiliário e uma comunidade de funcionários que recebem como se da sua própria casa se tratasse. Sempre disponíveis a a atender, seja por cozinha, limpeza, manutenção, apoio, apoio com crianças, ou via marítima para acesso a ferrys, dias de snorkell, etc. PS - Boas refeições e pequeno almoço bem servido e com muita qualidade e variedade Adorámos a nossa estadia de 5 dias neste local ainda para mais comparando com os outros 2 locais onde haviamos ficado na ilha. Aqui ficámos sem duvida melhor servidos!
• Tomasz (10/5): - Piękne miejsce. Spokój, brak ludzi, na plaży tylko kilka osób, które tu nocują. Rafa na wyciągnięcie ręki (lub lepsza - 30 min drogi). Bardzo dobra obsługa, fajna restauracja na miejscu (smacznie!). Naprawdę dobre miejsce na odcięcie się. Stosunkowo drogie usługi typu transfer wodnym taxi (ale można przejść pieszo do miejscowości obok), czy zorganizowany snorkeling.
• Yinghao (10/5): -
• Rainer (10/5): Welcome to Paradise! - Wir wurden hier mit einem "Welcome to Paradise!" begüßt. Das hat gestimmt. Meckern auf höchstem Niveau: das Essen im Restaurant ist relativ unspektakulär und dafür etwas teuer.
• Jindrich (10/5): -
• Alexander (9/5): Empfehlenswert! - Wir hatten eine wunderbare Zeit an diesem ruhigen und entspannten Ort. Die Lage des Resorts ist traumhaft, und das Essen war durchweg lecker. Die Preise im Restaurant liegen zwar etwas über denen der lokalen Restaurants in den Nachbardörfern, dafür war jedes Gericht wirklich lecker. Wasser, Kaffee und Tee stehen jederzeit frei zur Verfügung. Die Bungalows sid schön eingerichtwt, die Betten sehr gemütlich. Lydia und ihr Team sind sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Direkt vor dem Resort oder ein Stück weiter Richtung Paya kann man sehr gut schnorcheln. Auch die Schnorchelausflüge, die man von Tioman aus unternehmen kann, sind absolut empfehlenswert. Die eine oder andere Kleinigkeit in den Bungalows könnte besser instand gehalten werden – eine klemmende Tür wurde jedoch nach unserem Hinweis sofort geölt. Am Strand vor unserem Bungalow lag zu Beginn etwas Müll, den wir gleich am ersten Tag eingesammelt haben, damit er uns nicht weiter störte. Außerdem wird beim Reinigen des Strandes das Laub direkt vor den Bungalows aufgetürmt – hier wäre vielleicht eine etwas harmonischere Lösung wünschenswert.
• Cyrill (10/5): -
• Carlotta (8/5): -
• Nadia (10/5): Je recommande pour se retrouver en famille - Plage privée , personnel à l’écoute et prêt à tout pour que vous vous sentiez bien.
• MICHKA_PARIS (10/5): Super hôtel avec un personnel charmant - Tout, particulièrement la gentillesse du personnel, toujours attentif. Rien de particulier.
• cécile (10/5): Nous avons passé un merveilleux séjour et avons déjà hâte de revenir. - Le sourire et l’amabilité de l’ensemble du personnel. La localisation un peu à l’écart, avec un magnifique jardin autour des bungalows. L’ambiance générale. La plage et le snorkeling juste devant. Rien
• claudio (7/5): -
• Alessandro (8/5): Giorni pacifici a Tioman - Essere separati dagli altri resort rende tutto molto più bello e wild. Il personale é gentilissimo e sempre disponibile, sembra una struttura familiare. Immerso nella natura con anche diversi animali. Posto tranquillo e belle escursioni Alcuni spazi sono lasciati andare e c’è spazzatura tutto intorno alla struttura. É un enorme peccato perché il posto é bellissimo. La stanza molto semplice, non ha armadio e il bagno si allaga un po’ quando fai la doccia. Gli asciugamani era un po’ macchiati. Forse un po’ costoso perché risulta essere un po’ “spartano”
• Michiel (10/5): -
• Sha (4/5): Nice location and staff but stay at your own risk - The two redeeming factors were the service of the staff (especially f&b) which was always friendly and kind and the food which was very good. One of our family group is a vegetarian and the chef prepared dishes not in the menu (tofu curry, fried tempeh) to accommodate his needs, this was much appreciated. The location is secluded and quiet, with lots of trees for privacy. Unfortunately, the chalet floor was dirty at check-in, the bathroom not nice and the bunk bed for our children had joints that were not properly attached so bed was very shaky. We were worried the entire stay (4 nights) that the top bed would fall onto the lower bed and hence, child. We informed the manager abt the bunk bed safety and cleanliness issue on the second day, and were told it would be resolved however the issue persisted during our stay. We also realized that chalets even in same/lower price categories had very different standards - our bathroom was horrible but the unit right next to ours had a newly done bathroom. Our bunkbed was wobbly, but other units had stable beds. Our AC didnt work well, but units occupied by other members of our group were fine. There was hardly any surface space to put things in our room for 4 pax, but not the case in other units (we saw 4 other units in the complex due to the group we were travelling with). 2 pax in our group were looking forward to the spa options, but were told on arrival that there is actually no spa but it is at another resort 30 min walk away, something not mentioned on the website at time of booking. Sadly, the house reef is also in poor condition. At CHF 200 per night, one does have some expectations and our chalet certainly did not fit this - the chalet standards and safety concerns failed to justify the price. When we asked to move to another chalet in same category, we were told to pay an additional amount. There were so many issues that we finally requested a cancellation of the remainder of our booking (originally planned for 9 nights) from booking.com and thankfully moved to another accommodation which saved our holiday.
• BRAHIM (10/5): - Personnel très accueillant chalet non isolé. Proximité avec d'autres clients
• Robert (8/5): -
• Pappan (8/5): Secluded home away from home - definitely a unique place with an amazing staff - This resort is secluded and has its own charm. It becomes a cozy comfortable home away from everything else. It is mainly connected from the sea - guests check in and out from the sea! The common area is wonderful and gives a community feeling all through the day where you get to see all other guests in close proximity. Most common facilities are there - restaurant, bar, free coffee and tea facilities (24 hrs.), toilets, deck, access to the beach, sea sports desk and the reception. Everything's there. Besides the common area are only rooms not more than 50 meters away. So, overall the close world charm of this resort cut off from the rest of the world gave us a unique experience. Then the Tioman sea water - turquoise green and clear, beach calm and the water inviting. Sun beds and a swing on the beach which is covered by this huge tree which gives it ample shade. A volley ball court. The staff are very friendly and courteous. They add to the charm of the resort. They are always around, always smiling and always ready to serve. When you arrive at the hotel in the resort's boat (they pick you up from the nearest jetty which is Genting), the staff is there to welcome you at the beach. When you check out, they are waving you goodbye till you can no longer see them! This enables you to have a special bonding with the staff there even if you stay for just 2 nights. They offer sea sports activities like kayaking, island hopping, snorkeling, etc. which we did not avail. We drove down from KL. Takes 5 hours to reach Tanjung Gemok jetty. Then we wait for 1 hour at the jetty to take the ferry takes 2 hours to reach Tioman. At Tioman there are various stops and you have to get down at Genting jetty, where you board yet another boat provided by the resort to finally reach the resort. Total time - approximately 8.5 hours! Same thing while going back. But, Tioman Island is worth it because of the quality of the beaches and the lovely sea water. It is quite heavenly. We were in room named Macaque. It had a queen bed and 2 bunk beds, good enough for our family of 4. But this room doesn't face the sea! We noticed there are other rooms which face the sea and can have a lovely view. So, please ensure that you check with the hotel if you want a sea facing room. The bathroom heater was not very efficient, so hot water wasn't adequate. No handwash provided at the basin. There were no chairs provided on the balcony. The housekeeping was very basic. They just clean the bathroom and mop the room. We saw soiled glasses were not cleared. Towels were left as it is. Beds were not cleaned - we were hoping that the little bit of sand which comes along on the bed would be brushed off by them. Food available at the restaurant is very average. Right from the breakfast, the choice is so limited. Breakfast looks the same everyday. Looking at the menu you just wonder what to have for the next meal. Since the price of food is costly and limited choice, one would have hoped that it would be tasty. So, the weak point of this resort = food. WiFi only available at common area. In the room, cellular signal and the WiFi signal is weak. So, very scratchy internet available in the room. For one of the lunches, we walked through the back lane (through the hills and forests) to Genting village and had a meal at a place called Mamma's Food House - a must try. Very nice food. It is a 25 minutes walk from the resort to this lovely small restaurant.
• Jean Marc (8/5): 3 nuits en couple, en fin de voyage sur les îles Malaisiennes et pas la meilleure expérience. - La situation de l’hôtel en pleine nature et sur une très jolie plage de sable privative. La gentillesse du personnel. Notre chambre était située dans un chalet composé de 2 chambres et cette mitoyenneté occasionne des nuisances sonores de voisinage importantes. Nous avions l’impression que nos voisins étaient installés dans notre chambre. L’organisation trop stricte de la restauration avec notamment la pré commande de son repas du soir, choix des plats et horaires. Le manque de transats sur la plage. Les prix plutôt élevé des extras.
• Yolanda (8/5): Un lugar para desconectar y descansar, con un personal que te cuida y te hace la estancia muy fácil y agradable - Es un hotelito pequeño y familiar. De trato muy agradable, en el que te sientes como en casa La playa, cuando bajaba la marea el baño era complicado, había muchos corales muertos y poca profundidad
• Cedric (10/5): - Emplacement merveilleux, très au calme, personnel aux petits soins. Le bruit de la clim.
• vittorio (8/5): Bello peccato per il tempo che in questo periodo contrariamente a quanto ho letto nei diversi siti non sia il massimo - Accogliente immersa nel verde nella nella sua semplicità
• Yves Marie (8/5): -
• Hans (9/5): Comfortable lovely and quiet resort, hidden in nature. - Very nice, quiet, peaceful resort, with a lovely helpful staff. Nice private beach with some big trees given a lot of shadow. During our 6 nights we went to Genting for dinner once. The menu in the resort is divers enough and the resort offers good quality of food, so there was no real desire to go somewhere else. They also arranged a private boot trip for us (8 persons), which was a combination of the trip around the island and a snorkel tour. It was a great experience! Compared to accommodations in the cities it is rather expensive, but keep in mind it is on a remote location on an island. Based on what we have seen in Genting and Paya, this was absolutely the best spot and worth the money. Do note this is not a 5-star resort, so not everything will be like you have it at home. There is only filter coffee, don’t expect fancy cappuccinos or espresso’s. The showers function fine, but will not give the amount of water you might get at home. Overall it is not a luxury resort, but absolutely a comfortable resort with a staff which does everything to make you feel at home. Communication with the resort was excellent, they gave clear instructions about which jetty to get off, and when we arrived in Genting their boat was already waiting for us. At the resort the rooms were not ready yet (we arrived at 10am, so that was already expected based on earlier communication), but within an hour our rooms were ready. They do everything possible to make it comfortable for the guests. Also the atmosphere in the team working there is great, having a laugh with the guests but also having fun together. The beds were pretty hard, especially the bunk beds were not comfortable. Also some of these spoiled European guests can bring a negative atmosphere when they start complaining… like Hendrick who gave a 1,0 because he couldn’t get a cappuccino… It also looks like some people come to the resort straight after a long journey coming directly from Europe and being exhausted and grumpy by the time they arrive at the resort. Just one recommendation: don’t do that. Although it was very entertaining for us to watch and observe, nobody really enjoys it, you don’t, other guests don’t and the staff doesn’t… so travel in a relaxed way, with more stops in between and everybody will enjoy it much more.
• Chris (9/5): - The location of Melina Beach is wonderful. The resort staff is very friendly and the organize various daily snorkeling trips. The breakfast buffet is decent with varying fresh fruit. The apartments and cottages differ in in size and location. The internet connection is unreliable. They should install Starlink.
• Yi Ci (7/5): - The staff were all really friendly and attentive! I missed out the message on having a ferry service for Genting to the resort but they called and checked in with me. Location is secluded and good for anyone wanting to disconnect. The food was overpriced, and you are getting store bought quality pizza. You could get better pizza for lesser price in paya. Air con was working sporadically until we were able to figure out how to get it to work, and I was woken up by another group when they were stomping on the wooden planks. Wifi was spotty at best and wasn't working half the time.

• Christopher (7/5): - Die Lage, die Ausflüge, das Personal Die Zimmer waren für den Preis nicht gut, keine Moskitonetze für die Kinder, nur für die Erwachsenen und die waren durchlöchert, das Bad hatte keine separate Dusche, man duscht direkt im Raum neben der Toilette, an und für sich nicht tragisch, aber für den Preis hatten wir mehr erwartet.
• Hendrick (1/5): Nous sommes sortis de là avec la sensation de pouvoir enfin respirer ! - Le lieu est très beau L'accueil est antipathique, la chambre désastreuse : 250 euros pour une pièce obscure avec une minuscule fenêtre qui ne s'ouvre pas, des sanitaires absolument dégueulasses, jamais vu ça. Et toute l'organisation : il faut réserver son repas dans l'après-midi, on nous attribue une table sans nous demander notre avis, le petit déjeuner est pathétique (pas de vrai café, de la poudre, pareil pour la poudre de jus d'orange, pas de croissant rien...) et parmi pas mal d'autres problèmes, ils ont tenté de nous faire payer le transfert en bateau 60 euros alors qu'il n'y a pas de route et que le tarif normal est de 15 euros. L'arnaque totale.
• Barbara (10/5): -
• Stephanie (9/5): Très inspirant - La vue
• Evelyne (8/5): Relativ teuer, aber es lohnt sich - Die Lage! Es ist wirklich paradiesisch! Das Wasser klar, der Beach sauber. Es gab immer Liegebetten, die Zimmer waren sauber. Keine Moskitos. Es gibt noch ein kleines aktives Korallenriff zum Schnorcheln, das ist aber sehr klein. Das Personal mega! Sie waren sehr hilfsbereit und organisierten viele Ausflüge. Im Zimmer gab es ein Kajüttenbett. Bei einer Drehung im Bett knackste dies jeweils stark. Wir legten dann eine Matratze auf den Boden, dann konnte man besser schlafen. Für den doch eher gehobeneren Preis hätte ich ein besseres Zimmer erwartet. Das Melina Beach ist relativ teuer, denn auch der Food und das Essen vor Ort hat seinen hohen Preis. Aber eben, es ist ein Paradies, da muss man bereit sein, auch etwas tiefer in die Tasche zu greifen! Es lohnt sich auf jeden Fall!! Aufgepasst: Das Beachvolleyball Feld wird nich Instant gehalten. Wir hatten Glück, dass Gäste vor uns das Feld neu aufgebaut haben! Denn wir freuten uns aufs Volleyball spielen, ausser schnorcheln kann man dort nämlich sonst nicht viel aktives machen. Deshalb meine Bitte ans Managament: Schaut bitte, dass wenigstens das Volleballnetz vorhanden bleibt!!!

• Mette (10/5): Smukkeste perle på Tioman - Alt!! Min familie og jeg nød virkelig vores ophold hos Melina og boede her 5 nætter, men kunne sagtens være blevet længere. Der er fred og ro og midt i alle naturens glæder. Imødekommende, venlige personale tog varmt imod os ved ankomst. Hytterne ligger så smagfuldt i et med naturen og vi boede i en charlet med havudsigt. Havet på den ene side og regnskov med rigt dyreliv på den anden side. Vi så masser af dyr på land og i vand. Der er privat strand og koralrev lige udenfor - det er muligt at låne snorkeludstyr. Maden var smagfuld og de gjorde der bedste for at imødekomme alle vores ønsker. Vi kommer meget gerne igen og kan kun give vores varmeste anbefalinger til dette skønne og smukke sted. At vi skulle rejse videre.
• Martin (9/5): Robinson 4 étoiles - L'emplacement exceptionnel, l'impression de quiétude et d'exclusivité, la gentillesse du personnel, la beauté du site... Climatisation un peu difficile à régler. Le restaurant très agréable au demeurant fait payer un peu cher ( par rapport aux autres établissements de l'île) sa magnifique situation, Les excursions sont un peu plus chères que la concurrence mais avec un avantage de taille, le bateau est sur la plage du resort...royal!
• Cécile (9/5): Emplacement idéal au calme sur l'île de Tioman - L'emplacement est idéal pour être au calme sur l'île de Tioman. La plage est intimiste et 2 chemins permettent d'aller à pied en 20 min aux villages de Paya et de Genting. Le personnel est adorable, le restaurant propose des choix assez variés avec des suggestions qui changent quotidiennement (poissons, plats Malaisiens, ou encore pizzas et pâtes pour répondre aux envies de chacun). Possibilité d'avoir des jus de fruits maisons, bières, vin, etc. Sorties organisées en option pour faire du snorkeling / tours en bateau depuis l'hôtel. Nous avons adoré notre séjour. La chambre et la salle de bain sont assez basiques, néanmoins fonctionnelles.

• valerie (10/5): - J'ai tout aimé : la plage du resort, le bungalow très confortable, les espaces de vie commune, le restaurant ( tables donnant sur la mer), cuisine delicieuse, personnel aux petits soins, tout était juste parfait mais simple en même temps. On s'est senti chez nous.
• P Jansen (9/5): Mellina beach-resort was voor een paar dagen een heerlijk verblijf om helemaal tot rust te komen. - Ik denk dat dit by far het meest sfeervolle resort is op het eiland. Heel relaxed, kleinschalig en rustig. Hangt een goede sfeer. Uitgebreide menukaart. Met ook voldoende vegetarische opties. Eten was heerlijk, alles vers en veel groenten! Je loopt vanuit je huisje zo de zee in. Nette ligbedjes, iedere dag een fris nieuw strandlaken. Mooie snorkel spots vlak voor de deur. Zagen kleine haaitjes, roggen en een schildpad. Als je een leuke wandeling wilt maken vanaf het resort, dan loopt er een mooi pad richting Paya. Voor Paya zelf hoef je er niet heen, dat is echt een dramatische en niet charmante plek. Beetje viezig ook. Vergane glorie, houtje touwtje. Een verademing om dan weer terug te mogen naar Mellina!
• Lund (10/5): Beautiful location, peaceful, friendly. -
• Marina (10/5): Magnific Melina - Personal molt amable i atent Transport privat amb barca fins el jetty Excursió al voltant de l'illa amb barca completa i amb bon patró Sopar i berenar bons Ens ha tocat habitació perfecte amb baixada al mar directe i vistes espectaculars amb terrasseta El matalàs eateia enfonsat al centre i era incomòde Bany millorable Hi havia obres durant l'estada Es podrien recollir els plàstics provinents del mar del final de la platja, ja que és un eco resort.
• Claire (9/5): - Le personnel était d'une grande gentillesse, très attentionné. L'emplacement de l'établissement était top avec sa petite plage au milieu de la jungle. Les repas étaient excellents. Nous avons passé un excellent moment sur cette très belle île.
• Susanne (9/5): Fantastisk - Resortet ligger gudesmukt, og kokken laver virkelig god frokost og aftensmad. Morgenmaden er ok. Vælg et beachfront værelse, da de nærmest er på stranden og beachfront chalet er lækker rummeligt og er de nyeste. Ikke noget
• RONZANO (7/5): Overall, good stay with family and friends, the beach was ideal - Location, common areas, the beaches and the secluded environment but still easily accessible. The staff was very friendly and very helpful, the kids did really enjoy the moments Wifi was very difficult and the Aircon stopping in regular basis made our nights not so comfortable due to the heat
• ERGO (10/5): Magnifique - Le confort et la situation de l’hôtel . Isolé au calme mais accès à deux autres plages en marchant un peu. Gentillesse du personnel. La qualité de la cuisine Rien.
• perrine (8/5): - Lieu magnifique, plage du bout du monde rien que pour nous Restaurant plutôt bon mais trop cher
• Didier (10/5): - L'isolement L'isolement
• Kai Yang (9/5): - Staffs are polite, friendly and helpful. It is a secluded resort and it is peaceful and surrounded by nature. The resort has a nice small beach for themselves. You can see squirrels, monkeys, baby sharks if you are lucky. Facilities are basic but they are clean and complete. Because it is a secluded resort, it is quite far (25 mins walk) to the nearest village. Food prices are on the high side but the portions are generous. Although the resort has a nice small beach, I do not feel like there are lots of corals near the beach. Might have to swim quite far to the open ocean to see nice corals.

C'est ici qu'il faut aller ! A part les autres locataires, il n'y a personne d'autre (ah si, les animaux de la jungle...). Ambiance calme, confortable, détendue où vous pourrez vraiment faire une coupure ! Restaurant de qualité, personnel très attentionné avec un esprit familial, plage privée, sortie snorkeling proposée, service de speed-boat pour nous récupérer et nous ramener à la jetty... Rien ! certains diront que les logements font un peu "cabane", mais c'est exactement ce que nous recherchions, proche de la nature et avec tout le confort malgré tout
• Urban (5/5): Location Good, bungalow nice and remote, Food Options lacking. - The beach was nice, easy to snorkel right out the front. The staff was friendly and helpful, but we had to manage our own Scuba booking. This resort had a higher price point and I would have expected an easy way to directly contact and interact with Dive Operators at Genting. We ended up talking to a grocery store owner to find a Scuba operator. The Beach Bungalow was nice, bathroom was good, bed was comfortable and AC worked well. I have no problems with the remote aspect of the location, bungalow and no issues with wildlife and insect life. I grew up spending my summers in a cabin in the woods with lots of ants, bats, wasps and other bugs, but the food options were poor. I understand it was the end of the season but if you aren't going to restock goods for the kitchen then close up shop earlier in the season, lower your pricing or ensure you have enough goods to supply meals that are on the menu. The nearest restaurants are a hike so it makes it difficult to food shop. I would also have liked to know ahead of time that the water taxi landing was a wet one. I could have properly ensured I had water shoes (not leather) sandals on arrival.
• Lara (9/5): Fantastic paradise - Staff was very nice, friendly and helpful Food was excellent (Beef Rendang was my favourite) Rooms were clean and beautiful Malaysian Gouvernement is planning to build an airport into the sea and destroy this paradise
• Steven (7/5): -
• Gaël (5/5): Peu mieux faire - L'endroit est très beau entre mer et forêt. Le fait d'être un peu captif dans la mesure ou les 1ers villages sont à une demi-heure à pieds. Cela aurait eu moins d'importance si la restauration proposée par l'hôtel avait été plus variée, meilleure et moins chère. Un cocktail face à la mer en soirée n'y pensez pas... Nous nous sommes contentés d'une bière ou d'1 verre de vin quand il en restait. Les chambres sur pilotis face à la mer sont très bruyantes. Nous entendions très distinctement les conversations de la chambre d'à côté et les cuisines se trouvent juste derrière. Pour les activités, la sortie snorkeling classique et rien d'autre à notre connaissance. La baignade n'est pas facile devant l'hôtel (beaucoup de rochers). ...
• christine (10/5): Séjour inoubliable dans un cadre naturel exceptionnel. - Très bon accueil, personnel très sympathique et disponible. Restaurant sur place avec repas très corrects, aux prix abordables. Chambres propres, bien décorées, et confortables. Vue et plage magnifiques. Je recommande l’excursion snorkelling proposée par l’hôtel.
• Drew (10/5): - Best location, best staff, best food, complete relaxation and seclusion! Nothing
• Raymond (7/5): Sure a nice spot to laze around and enjoy some quality time with family. Beach was fun place. - Small and cozy place nestled away in nature. Limited food options
• DENIS (8/5): Excellent séjour, très bon accueil et service - Très calme, pas de musique Pas de choix de restaurant sur place
• sandra (9/5): - Le personnel est exceptionnel ils sont sympathiques, très à l'écoute, aidants. Le lieu est très sauvage et authentique. Trés belle plage privée avec spot de snorkling sur la barrière de corail. On peut aller dans le centre de Genting ou de Paya à pieds de l'hôtel. L'hôtel est venu nous chercher a notre arrivée en bateau et nous à ramené pour notre départ. Prix du restaurant élevé et des activités proposées par l'hôtel.
• Goto (7/5): -
• kok kiong (8/5): - Private Beach . Away from the crowds The room which there are a lots of ants 🐜 and no bath tub.
• Anais (10/5): - Absolument tout ! Le personnel est adorable, le cadre est juste exceptionnel ! Ce n’est pas facile de se rendre de l’autre côté de l’île depuis l’hôtel, puis pour revenir. Nous sommes donc restés tout le séjour au Melina, mais le cadre est tellement exceptionnel que rester là à profiter de la plage et des alentours ne nous a pas posé de problèmes. L’île est encore à l’état sauvage et c’est aussi ce qui nous a séduit à Tioman!
• Giacomo (1/5): - The position Unfortunately, a very unpleasant and unexpected situation occurred at this location. In spite of the fact that we had postponed our booking to the following week via booking.com, within the terms of the policy, the resort on our arrival denied having received any notification from booking.com of the cancellation of the first booking. For this reason, even before evidence provided immediately, the resort refused to cooperate, unjustifiably charging us the cost of both the previous booking and the new booking. What was most surprising was the absence of any cooperation on the part of the resort towards its customers. In addition, the accommodation appeared unclean. While we were having dinner, a cat came out of the kitchen with a mouse in its mouth. The room had many insects and spiders in it. The property is poorly connected and in the evenings it is virtually impossible to move around, so guests are obliged to stay for dinner at the hotel, where prices are completely unreasonable compared to the rest of Malaysia. About 30 metres from the hotel, on the beach and among the trees on the beach there is basically an open-air dump, where the resort throws away its waste. I have seldom left negative reviews about a resort, but in this case I hope it will help prevent other customers from paying certain prices for a service that is not up to standard.
• Giacomo (1/5): - Solo la posizione Purtroppo in questa struttura si è verificata una situazione veramente spiacevole e inaspettata. Nonostante infatti avessimo posticipato tramite booking, nei termini previsti dalla policy, la nostra prenotazione alla settimana successiva, la struttura al nostro arrivo ha negato di aver ricevuto segnalazione da booking.com della cancellazione della prima prenotazione. Per questa ragione, anche davanti ad evidenza fornita sul momento, la struttura si è rifiutata di collaborare, addebitandoci senza averne diritto il costo sia della precedente prenotazione che della nuova prenotazione. Ciò che più ha colpito è l'assenza di ogni collaborazione da parte della struttura verso dei propri clienti. Oltre a questa pessima esperienza, per la quale sono ancora in corso discussioni, la struttura è apparsa poco pulita. Mentre cenavamo un gatto è uscito dalla cucina con un topo in bocca. La camera presentava molti insetti e ragni al suo interno. La struttura è mal collegata e di sera è praticamente impedito ogni spostamento, pertanto si è obbligati a rimanere a cena presso la struttura, dove vengono applicati prezzi completamente sproporzionati rispetto al resto della Malesia. A circa 30 metri dall'hotel, sulla spiaggia e negli alberi sulla spiaggia è sostanzialmente presente una discarica a cielo aperto, dove la struttura butta gli scarti dell'attività. Raramente mi è capitato di lasciare recensioni negative verso una struttura, ma in questo caso spero che serva per evitare ad altri clienti di spendere certe cifre per avere un servizio non all'altezza.
