It was about 2 hours drive from Singapore to Tanjong Leman. After that it's only a short boat trip to Pulau Sibu. The sea was rough on the day we arrived so we have to alight at Coconut Village on Pulau Sibu, follow by a 15 minutes jungle track to the other side of island, Sea Gypsy Village. The staff... More

We had a fabulous weekend here with friends. The location is absolutely spectacular - wide, soft, sandy beach, turquoise water, just beautiful. We had a family villa a few meters from the beach. Accommodation was basic but comfortable. No hot water or air con but beds were clean and soft - it all felt a bit like camping but with... More

We have stopped here twice recently (july and september 2011). Had a great stay both times, The pick ups from Tanjung Leman worked well and arriving on the dive boat, wading up the beach made it very exciting for our 2 boys (aged 6 and 9) - a real desert island. The accomodatio is in simple wooden huts set just... More

If you like an authentic resort experience and genuine hospitality, SGV is for you. If you like aircon, manicures, jet skis and the designer crowd, SGV is not for you. Simple. From an antipodean perspective it's ideal - it's a no nonsense, no frills, no worries property. There's nothing unnecessary (e.g. pool, hot showers, aircon, pedicures) but everything necessary (e.g.... More

Sea Gypsy has been there a long time. Its maintained to a very high standard. Went back there for a week in August after trying a few days in May. The plan was to do nothing but relax. There's diving and inter-island trip for the adventurous. The location is at the beach on an island off the coast looking East,... More

Sea Gypsy was a bit of a find for us, after much searching - and a bit of soul-searching too. We wanted to stay somewhere on the coast/on an island in Malaysia but because we had small kids with us we didn't want to go for a backpacker's - and we certainly did not want to get into one of... More

Spent 6 nights here and for what we paid I think this is good value for money, well run and exceedingly clean. Other reviewers should consider that this resort is on a Island 20 mins from the mainland and even then - "the mainland" isn't very main. I think they deliver a very good product in circumstances that present logistical... More

For us (family of four, kids 13 and 17) this was a one week getaway from Singapore The holiday started the minute we stepped on the boat for the 20 minute exhilarating dash over to the resort From then on we followed the same routine every day: breakfast, then into the sea until lunch Then a snooze before more swimming...

What a wonderful place to wind down. We stayed for 4 nights in August in one of the chalets, with all the meals included. This is not a cheap option, but it meant we could just concentrate on enjoying the beautiful island. One of the things that really stood out is that the resort is really well organised. The boat...
