Stayed here for 2 nights. Booked the standard room towards the back. An okay room but needs a lot more maintanance, as right at the beginning the electricity was not working & they sent someone ASAP to fix it. It would be great if they could have phones that are connected to reception so you don't have to walk or... More

Stayed at one of the standard rooms on a recent dive trip, i.e. not a standalone villa. First caution is to manage your expectations. If the intent is to enjoy the sights and experiences that Tioman has to offer, then the minimal facilities should not bother you give the affordable prices here. But if clean rooms are an issue, then... More

This is my first time to Tioman Island, arrived 10 June 2013; departed 12 June 2013. My family and I stayed in Paya Beach Spa and Dive Resort. The island is segregated into various beaches which are not connected by land. Visitors have to travel by boat to the other beaches. There was much delay with ferries though. I might... More

My family booked a 4D3N stay at Superior Beach Front chalet at Paya Beach Resort in June this year. The room has a fantastic view of the beach. It was just right at the doorstep. We could hear the beautiful ocean waves...it was very relaxing! The hotel staff were friendly too! Especially Ms Lily Poh, she was warm and helpful.... More

I stayed with my 11-year-old daughter for 2 nights at the end of May. Booked with Discovery Tours from Singapore. The coach arrived ourside DFS Galeria at 6:25 am and we were all ready to leave by 6:30 am. The driver checked us all in, and in Johor Bahru, Malaysia, another man (the tour guide for the journey), joined us... More

We have just returned from 4D3N stay at Paya Beach Resort. We booked through local agent and Singapore coach pick up was at 630am. Although the ferry ticket stated 1230pm, it was almost 1.30pm when we left the jetty and slightly after 3pm when we reached Paya village. We had a superior beachfront unit on ground floor. This is really... More

Paya Beach Resort is far from a luxury resort. Some parts can even be described as run-down. But if you go there without expecting too much and take it easy, you will find that it can be a relaxing stay with an abundance of nature around you. I've been to Paya Beach Resort more than 5 times, variously staying in... More

Second time in Tioman, first time in Paya Beach. This place has an awesome crew which made them seem like one bug happy family. From the friendly, service oriented front desk staff, to the cheerful housekeepers and the radical snorkel dudes. Beach was nicer than the one at the southern most tip of the island from my previous stay. Rooms... More

We have spent lovely time in this resort though it does not look exactly like on the pictures, so don't get too excited. Room are spacious and clean though they smelled a bit musty. We had a room with 2 double beds just by the beach. Bathroom was nice and clean. The only annoying thing was the amount of flies... More
