Getting there
Somewhat walkable
Places to stay are graded on a 0-100 scale. The higher the grade, the easier it is for travellers to find restaurants and things to do within walking distance.
Booked 2 rooms for a 3 days 2 nights package, but this package should be marketed as a 2 days 2 nights package instead of the latter. Not only us but i heard complaints from other residents as well that everyone felt short-changed due to the early checkout by 9am on the last day. Everyone had to wake up at 7am in order to have their breakfast by 7.30am so that by 8.30am they can be at the lounge waiting for departure. This is madness. As tourists, to be rushed out. This is a 3 days 2 nights package, not a 2 days 2 nights package.
In terms of facilities, there is no fridge or tv in the room. Dont know if it is common in Redang but the rooms in this hotel doesnt have them.
Other than that, the beach is fantastic, the hotel is located at the perfect spot for good relaxation. Food wise it is reasonable but could be better in terms of selection. Anyhow, they serve quality food.
If you are expecing a full 3 days 2 nights trip without being rushed out, avoid this hotel at all costs. Overall average experience.

Stayed with my family 6 adults & 6 kids (1-6yo) we stay for 3D2N. We booked 3 deluxe room. We love it! Wifi available, kettle and drinking water (can add on with coway at dining) available in the room. Room is clean and spacious. No tv, but u will have no time to watch it, due to activities available. Food is yummy(sgt kenyang yea), no regrets at all. Staff is friendly and helpful. We love it that the package do not have any snorkeling included, cz we can choose our private package. Environment is lovely. Kids love the pool; beach is givin beautiful. We shud stay longer. Thanks Coral Redang, definitey will come back again!

Our staying at Coral Redang Island Resort was satisfying and comfortable. The resort was located away from the noisy area, suitable for those who want to have a quiet night. The air conditioners are brand-new, making the room extra cool and us away from the heat. Food there were also delicious and of abundant options.
Apart from the accommodation experience, I would like to highly recommend the resort's dive shop and the best diving instructor Bob to anyone who wants to dive. We studied the AOW course here and completed the entire study in three days. Bob is an experienced diving instructor with many positive reviews from his students. He was very patient and genuine with us in teaching, who would give us knowledge briefings and summaries before and after each dive. He took us to explore several dive sites around Redang Island. We saw so many beautiful corals and different species and finished our courses like we are doing several fun dives.
It is truly a place that I would like to explore to many times.

The building is aged and it definitely does not respect any minimum standards of hygiene: wc is in the shower compartment, every single pipe is full of limestone or God knows what other material. When we first arrived we asked to change the room twice, we had to settle for the third room: in the first room the bed sheets had unidentified stains, the second room had curtain completely covered by mildew and the window in the bathroom was always opened because broken (try to guess how to manage with mosquitos and monkeys). In 6 days the room was never tidied, neither the bed made, nor the trash got empty. Solarium was the only point were wifi was available (other b&b on the island had no issue, only Coral had….) but in the night a little mouse came always to run on it and the small tables were always dirty. We paid the breakfast uselessy because after the first time we chose to avoid because there was dirt starting from the floor. On top of that the general attitude of the staff was arrogant and of disregard. To conclude, mite bites and no hot water in the shower. As a justification we were told that Coral was closed for 2 years because of Covid, but this is not a problem for people who pay, but rather of who collects the cash. We were not looking for Maldives, or luxuous resort, but we cannot understand how we could have relax in these conditions. Please have sufficient sense not to reply (for the chinese manager). We ONLY thank Ms Irna, for her smiles and her professionalism.

The hotel is located on a very nice location on the Redang Long Beach, which is a bit less crowded. The service of the staff was really bad. We did not get our room cleaned once even though we stayed 3 nights and we did neither get our towels changed… The information from the staff was poor and they did not seem to care about anything. It was not possible to pay with international card.
The room is simple but okay, however we had bed bugs. That did not seem to bother the staff at all, who just said that they have bed bugs on their resort but sanitize with spray before new gusts arrive.
Would not go back to this resort.

They claim to have shortage of staffs. Hence no house keeping. No new towels even if we stayed for 5 days. None of the staffs ever smile and none were forthcoming to help us. Because of their lack of enthusiasm they were accommodative at best. Their standard room was unlivable and their superior rooms are old and full of BED BUGS. Our friends room also don't have hot water at night and the staffs claim that because it is running on solar power. What crap.
Also about the dive center, our dive trip had to be cancelled because one boatman fell ill. Didn't bother to offer alternative. Their dive center seems to be boycotted by all dive centers in the island as they don't receive information on whale sharks or anything. Maybe that's why they couldn't get assistance nce from other dive centers. We had to go to another dive center who was full but referred us to the dive center next to our resort, and they happily took us in although they didn't have a boat, and they shared it with anther dive center. Coral redang Island Resort is one of the worst resort that I have ever stayed in. I wouldn't want to stay there again even if they pay me to.

Special shout out to 'Farah' & 'Irma' My iPhone cable was spoilt and they are the only one that are willing to help me out. Regardless of how much I'm willing to pay for the cable, they politely decline my gratitude and generously hand out the cable to me for free. It is very kind of them and really my saviour！Thanks！❤️❤️❤️

The resort is nice, the rooms are clean and the staff is very polite. The food at the restaunrant is good but the menu is limited, so after few days you are forced to eat the same dishes. Sometimes the beach is dirty and the staff is not keen to clean it up quickly, whish is a shame since the location is amazing. The diving center is great with very professional people like Bob the divemaster.

Our stay in the Coral Redang Island Resort was very relaxing and enjoyable!
The rooms were clean, spacious and comfortable and there was a lovely buffet with wonderful food for each meal! The resort is situated away from all of the other noisy resorts and the gorgeous beach is just a few steps away!
I would like to make a special shout out to the staff at the resort, for being so welcoming and nice - and especially the dive instructor Bob! Bob is an extremely experienced diver and is very professional in water and when handling equipment and instructing. He is also very witty, kind hearted, patient and comedic and me and my family have many more compliments that I'm sure he already knows of! He took my family to many fantastic dive sites, where they got to see the amazing underwater world that Bob goes crazy for - and shared so much fantastic information about fishes and sea life.
We had a very relaxing and memorable stay at this resort and we would love to be able to come again to enjoy the gorgeous island!

Nice location by the beach with great views; it was a great place to relax and unwind.
Staff all seem to be quite fed up and will only assist if directly asked. Some staff members were sat in the lounge smoking (next to a no smoking sign) instead of attending the bar so had to be approached to get a drink from the bar. Food was decent quality but took a very long time to come out.
Rooms were basic and reasonably clean, although the floor was very sandy when we first checked in. The snorkelling trip organised by Coral Redang was an amazing experience - we saw sea turtles up close which was very special, however the staff member leading the tour asked for RM30 each directly to him in order for us to go there, instead of this being included as part of the original trip.
Special mention goes to the lovely tattooed lady at the dive shop who was very helpful and polite!
TL;DR - Some lazy staff, unclean rooms and long waits for food. Would recommend looking elsewhere for a better experience.
