“Reef Chalet”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 14 April 2013

Having stayed in many of the resorts on both large and small Perhentian Islands, I feel qualified to say that Reef Chalet offers the most tranquil and attractive venue of them all for a restful holiday for a reasonable budget.

The owners are wonderful people. Rashida... More

“Nice and calm chalet”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 25 May 2012

It is more dedicated to aquatic activities during days and chill out with a nice BBQ fish for diner. We Had incredible dives in Perhentian island thanks to Pro... More
