"We chose Japamala Tioman for our wedding anniversary and this boutique resort did not disappoint. Service was impeccable from the time we were picked up at the ferry terminal at Kampung Genting until the time we left.
Kudos to the manger Kenny and his team for their hospitality in making our anniversary memorable. Food was in general above average (dessert was fantastic) and some dishes were a bit salty as we don’t consume too salty food in our diet. We gave feedback and to our surprise the staff took it seriously as our subsequent dishes served weren’t as salty. The rooms are clean and the sea view fantastic, allowing us to take in the magnificent sunset views every evening.
Not much to do, as this resort is more for guest to disconnect. Hiking to Batu Permata and to Kampung Genting was doable. Canoeing and snorkelling by the resort was great.
Overall we enjoyed our stay there. Thanks Japamala!"
"On September 22, we checked in at Juara Ocean Chalet around 2 p.m. and spent a relaxing afternoon by the beach, enjoying the peaceful island atmosphere. In the evening, we had a delicious seafood dinner at a local restaurant, featuring fresh fish and prawns. The next morning, my child and I joined an exciting boat trip covering five snorkeling spots, where we saw colorful coral reefs and tropical fish. After returning to shore, we enjoyed a simple yet flavorful Malay lunch and relaxed by the sea for the rest of the day."
"If you think to take a hotel or not, take it without thinking! Very welcoming staff, everything will tell, will show. Good breakfast on the type of Swedish table. To the ocean 1 minute. Harbour in step availability. If you want to snorkelling, go to the left to the stones and study the underwater world. The hosts gave a kayaking at a very attractive price for a day. The houses are comfortable with air conditioning. The bed is comfortable.
But there are no glasses in the windows in the houses. Only wooden stands. Accordingly, they are not open with the air conditioner without which it is very hot. Prepare to live with the light on constantly. There was a tree over the house, from which occasionally something fell on the roof with a thunder. But it was rare. And so it was very much like!"
"Great environment. Relaxing and doable. Great Sunrise except for occasional overcast. The beach is white. The size of the room is comfortable. Beds are big. The deluxe room has a small balcony which leads to the swimming pool and dining hall. The room is not the cleanest. Saw some baby cockroaches running around the bathroom. The pillows are way too soft. The Aircon power is very weak Occasional power trips.
There are a few dive shops along the way. Good selection for divers who wants different experience diving around Juara. Food prices are average. There is a roti canai shop mia cafe. Which sells out out very quickly. Be on time at 7am if you want to try it."
"We loved it at this hotel! The room is spacious and clean, water and tea are available all day, the breakfast to choose from is simple, but edible and tasty. We liked the location: Tekek, the pier, the road to Juara nearby, and most importantly, access to the beach with excellent reefs. Of the minuses, for 4 nights there was no cleaning or change of towels. They left a bag of garbage outside the door, and then it was removed. There are no sun loungers on the beach, it is better to have your own air mattress or just snorkel."
"I loved this place. While rustic, the room and shower are decent and functional. I especially loved the hammock on the balcony and spent too much time lazing on it. With the amazing sea view and breeze, and very laid back vibes, it's really hard not to. No need to spend time in the room.
Amazing and accommodating hosts; they try their best. We're very appreciative. Thank you, guys!!
We got the air con room and did not get mosquitoes. Yes, walls are thin, so no hanky panky.. ;p Yes, there was loud music from an open bar at the other end of the chalet. We managed to sleep through the night regardless. The loud waves drowned most of the sound.
Will defo come back here if we're heading this area again.
Some tips:
1. Do bring bathroom slippers/flip flops for comfort
2. Do bring a hanging toiletries case as there is no place to put your toiletries
3. While I ended up not needing them, I still brought mosquito coils with me"
"It was not friendly arrival, find your way
We booked for 4, we only have two
towels, most of the time
no staff and breakfast is the same for two days"
"1511 Coconut Grove feels like something you read from a magazine that you never imagine getting to experience. Tioman Island is truly a magical place indeed and this resort is the most perfect location I’ve found! We will be coming back again and again.
All local staff who knows hospitality standards of western travelers!"
"A Great Stay at Berjaya Tioman Resort
We had a wonderful experience during our stay at Berjaya Tioman Resort. We booked two rooms and were pleasantly surprised to receive connecting rooms, which made our stay much more convenient and comfortable especially for families.
The rooms were spacious, clean, and well-maintained, offering a relaxing atmosphere after a day of exploring the island. One unexpected perk was that can drinks in the hotel were complimentary, which was a nice touch and added to the overall value of the stay.
Breakfast offered a variety of food selections, catering to different tastes. While the spread was decent, the taste could be improved to better match the quality of the rest of the resort experience.
Overall, Berjaya Tioman Resort provided a comfortable and enjoyable stay, and we would definitely consider returning in the future."
"My family had a nice stay at TDR. It lived up to our expectations and MORE. I am writing because I would like to commend the resort for their help in locating my missing backpack (left at the ferry jetty). When we realised we were missing an important bag (dont ask how, things happen i guess) we called the resort and asked the help from the staff to check if we did leave our bag at the jetty which was a 10 minutes-walk away from the resort. They immediately went to check but the bag was not there. It seemed that TDR didn’t just leave the matter at that, and I dont know how they managed it, but 6.5 hrs later they called to inform me that the bag was on another ferry on its way to a different jetty 30 minutes away from us on the mainland. Kudos to the Bluewater ferry service for picking up the abandoned bag and sent it to their office albeit at a different nearby location. Again, I dont know how but i am so glad that TDR was able to get that information and relayed it back to us. After more than 8 hours of despair, with God’s will, we got back our bag with the help of the staff of the resort, the staff of the Bluewater ferry service and possibly the networking within the small island. Thank you so much for the help TDR. Thank you for making this a really memorable trip with a happy ending."
