"ABC Beach. We stayed in May 2026 with my wife and son (15 years old). Everything was great: a spacious room with daily cleaning, a roomy bathroom, comfortable mattresses, a fridge, and a wardrobe. There were absolutely no inconveniences. The front desk staff was polite and patient.
Further details: snorkeling is available directly opposite the hotel and a 3-5 minute walk to the right. Overall, this hotel is great for divers – there are dive centers nearby. We didn't see any other Russians during our trip. If you're looking for a relaxing beach vacation, head to Juara (a beach on the other side of the island). You can book excursions for an average price of 130-150 Ringgit per person. Kayaks are available for rent. You can also rent a bicycle or a motorbike and go to Tekek (where you'll find tropical fruits). Food is available to the right of the reception if you're facing it (see photos). The price per person is 15-20 Ringgit. To the left, there's a cafe with a breakfast buffet... don't even bother trying that for 25 Ringgit! Tioman is a beautiful island, incomparable to Langkawi... fewer tourists, no hustle and bustle. If you want to find your Zen, this is the place to be!!!"

Great
GGuest UserStaff are extremely friendly, the place was a really relaxing and beautiful getaway. Although the beach was not sandy as it was filled with dead corals, snorkeling around the area was quite beautiful. The transport to the resort is also very convenient as they provide rides from the main village.
CCheliangjinzhanThe rooms are clean and relaxing, with many decorations and items made from local, handcrafted materials, which is both eco-friendly and gives the hotel its unique character. The hotel owner and staff are polite and sincere, without any noticeable commercial vibe. The natural environment is quiet and pristine, and the hotel blends seamlessly with its surroundings. Most guests here are couples enjoying their time together; we were the only ones with children during our three-day stay. We really loved this quiet, non-commercial holiday environment.
January is monsoon season, so the winds and waves were strong. We tried snorkeling on two mornings, but it wasn't amazing. The ecosystem here isn't as vibrant as in Mataking, Semporna; we didn't see as many types of fish, and there were more rocks, making the snorkeling environment less friendly than Mataking. However, the hotel stay itself was truly comfortable, and we felt the energy of nature – a great opportunity to relax. The staff and owner were fantastic and even personally picked us up and dropped us off at the pier. Their service felt genuinely sincere, unlike Semporna, where there's a strong commercial atmosphere, and you don't feel the same genuine human interaction, but rather more commercialism, and the room rates are many times higher without the corresponding service quality.
We love this kind of hotel vacation experience. It's filled with the scent of nature everywhere, with streams flowing through the rainforest, integrating the hotel with the sea – a resort that has both mountains and the ocean.
Friendly tip: The hotel carefully prepares all three meals (breakfast, lunch, and dinner). The food provided is consistently delicious, and although the prices are not cheap, it's worth it.
GGuest UserOverall, we had a good stay at Paya Beach Resort. We visited during the off-peak weekday period, so it was very quiet and peaceful—perfect if you’re looking to relax and avoid crowds.
One downside was the number of mosquitoes, especially when opening the door, so that’s something to be mindful of. Another small issue was the exit green light in the room—it couldn’t be turned off at night, which felt a bit unusual and slightly disruptive when trying to sleep.
On the positive side, the breakfast buffet was enjoyable with a good selection of options.
Overall, a nice and tranquil place to stay, with a few minor areas that could be improved.
