We booked our stay at Minang Cove Resort after reading the reviews here on Tripadvisor. The pictures looked fantastic and the thought of escaping to a quiet island made us all the more excited about our stay there. Our stay was a big, big disappointment. The resort left a lot to be desired and the staff, specifically the management, was... more

Initially booked five nights at Minang Cove Resort but ended up staying for 10. We loved it, and found it to be a well-organised, attractive and supremely relaxing place to stay. We stayed in a mid-range room when we first arrived and then moved to the best of the rooms overlooking the jetty. The managers (two young Brits) kept a... more

The bedrooms are not quite like on the photos... Our bathroom had a broken lock and didn't close and the family room is basic. When you reach the hotel you will be given a speech about the hotel's rules exactly the same way than any new comers, as a recitation... strange.... The food is ok, breakfast is basic and the... more

Overall, we had a great time during our week holiday! What was great? The remoteness of the island and the quaintness of the resort were a plus. We totally relaxed b/c there were no TVs and cell phones, small (20-25 guests) and a personal feel. We felt like we got to know the duo-managers Alex and Vicky, and the dive... more

The hotel is very nice and has very nice location. And you can mostly trust the reviews here about the hospitality and peacefulness. But since people here have not written about any negative sides I will. First of all: the beach is far from good. Actually unless you like swimming from the jetty the beach is awful. It is about... more

Minang Cove for our deep disappointment was fully booked for the weekend, so we could only stay three nites. We really realised afterwards (having gone to another *yack* resort) what a gem this is!! After Minang Cove, even a lunch visit to Berjaya resort looked all too unwelcoming with its ghetto of hastily built chalets and rip-off F&B prices. The... more

Hi, we stayed 5 days in Minang Cove in Sept. 2009 and can absolutly recommend this place. It is not cheap but surely one of the best places of Pulau Tioman. The room of our bungalow was large and clean, with a terrace and sea view and monkeys coming by every day. Also the bathroom was large and clean and... more

A fantastic sea side holiday for the whole family. Read all the positive reviews on TripAdvisor and true enough on all the good things mentioned. Beautiful Vicky welcomed us. Moderate rooms but sufficient. My 2 teenagers enjoy jumping off the pier in the evening with Daniel and Sophia (the owner's 2 kids age 7 & 9). As we are there... more

We stayed at the Minang Cove the last weekend in August. What a fabulous retreat, quiet and surrounded by mountains and raintforst. The food and the Saturday evening BBQ were excellant with no problems. Guests and staff alike were extremely friendly. The snorkling was great fun and on one occassion we were lucky to swim alonside a Greenback Turtle just... more

Extremely friendly staff at a quaint and relaxing location on a gorgeous cove on Tioman Island. The rooms are not first class, but for the price, they work very well. However, everything else about Minang Cove is fantastic for the perfect relaxing vacation. more
