We've been planning to go to Malaysia for a long time, but did not want to visit any of the commercial overcrowded places. Redang became and obvious choice due to its location and also that it was a part of the marine park.
The staff at Redang bay resort are extremely helpful. Shing Ng made sure our rooms were ready by the time we arrived. The rooms were absolutely clean. We stayed for 4N/5D and were given complimentary trips to the marine park and Turtle watching. The staff at the dive school are absolutely wonderful and knowledgeable.
We wanted to go for a trek as well but unfortunately it was closed due to rains before our arrival.
Few things the resort could do better:
They do not accept cards and insist on complete payment by cash before boarding the ferry. This can be a put off.
The choice for vegetarians is extremely limited. My wife had a very difficult time as she is a vegetarian. The kitchen staff did their best to accommodate her, but still it could've been better.
Some great things:
Staff always cheerful and ready to help.
Rooms very clean
The reef opposite the hotel absolutely breathtaking
The dive school staff very particular about safety of guests
The swimming pool was kept clean
The resort was nature friendly
All in all a beautiful resort and a lovely island. A must visit and a hidden gem of Malaysia.More
