Redang Island Resort

Free upgrade when we came to the hotel all the staff were super helpful amd friendly room was beautiful and clean lovely view if you hire a scooter you are only 5 minutes away from the most beautiful beach would recomend to anyone

Rooms can be cleaner, food options limited, tours limited and overpriced Staff is friendly and helpful, trip to marine park is good

The property is very close to Jetty and they have a van that will drop and pick up from the jetty to hotel. This is the only good part about the property. The property itself is very old and the rooms are sub standard. We had 2 rooms and one of the room AC did not work properly but luckily the ceiling fan was enough for our stay. We had a connecting door between the two rooms and so the AC in other room helped to some extent. The other issue is that the property is very far from the beach. The beach is near the Taaras resort property which is about 4.5 km away and can only be reached if you rent a scooter. The breakfast, as others have mentioned is very bad. We even tried the ala carte lunch but we were very disappointed with the taste and food quality. For the two days we stayed, we actually ate at another resort hotel which was called De rimba resort and they had excellent food. There was another small bakery close to our property called Pink restaurant or cafe I think which is at the entrance of the Jetty and their carrot cake is highly recommended. The property itself is very clean and quiet and the hotel staff was very nice and welcoming. We also had a massage booked but the massage too was just ok for the price. I have had far better massage treatments. Overall, it was an ok stay, nothing that I would remember or recommend if I ever visit Redang island.

It was quiet decent place but dining options are minimal . Breakfast offered is the routine menu and the dining hall is not quite clean . Taps & heater is not working in bathrooms and had to follow up with reception for room cleaning service.

I had a good stay here- it was comfortable, the staff were helpful and friendly, the hotel was good and offered fun excursions and cheap massages. The shop onsite is handy for water and snacks. There is no cash machine on the island so make sure you bring enough. You are limited to taxis (60RM return journey anywhere) and boats (55RM) to leave the hotel. There were a few small things could have made it GREAT: - a welcome message on arrival to explain timings of meals, what’s available in the hotel and outside it (it took me a couple of days to figure everything out & I was told the wrong information about meal times twice) - better WiFi! The connection was terrible, only worked around 10% of the time, and only when in reception (it didn’t work at all in my room) - if housekeeping replaced dirty towels, used cups, coffee etc as standard (I had to make a direct request for this when it didn’t happen on the second day) - cushions on the sun loungers by the pool (it is uncomfortable laying on hard plastic) - better vigilance at keeping buffet lids closed to avoid flies on the food at breakfast - healthy / lighter options at breakfast (aside from eggs, it was all carbs; bread, noodles, rice, potato, cereal) - would hugely benefit from filtered water fountains around the hotel, as the only water refill was hidden away in the restaurant and staff had to fill up my water bottle, otherwise only plastic water bottles available which is bad for the environment
