The best place to stay on the islands, we decided for the last few nights we would upgrade and get a deluxe beach villa - we were so glad we did! The sea and beach were 20 feet from our veranda and the view was amazing. The room was massive, with a single and king size, the fan and aircon... More

Having read some reviews about deluxe garden view rooms, I think it's definitely worth paying the extra RM10 for a deluxe beach view. Our view was amazing and we could dry clothes etc on our balcony as we had sun all day. I agree with other reviews that the service was a bit mixed as it kind of depends who... More

After the variety of reviews on the 'net and TA we were a little unsure on what the accoms would be like here and at Redang (Redang Beach Resort). Well, we got to breathe easy as both were fine and fit the bill perfectly. We stayed in the most expensive chalets at Coral View: our friends stayed in Deluxe Seaview... More

It is very difficult to rate this resort - because it has quite extreme pros and cons. Let's go from negative to positive: 1) We had one of their most 'luxurious' chalets, and though the airco, the hot shower and all that worked, the interior was very outdated. When we opened a window, the glass fell out. The bathroom was... More

I agree with the latest reviews, this place is overpriced and badly managed. Try others like Tuna bay and Perhentian Island resort, or in the small island, Bubu. I haven't been there but they inspire higher level of service. In details, GOOD: the area and the beach is quite nice, particularly the nearby Turtle point is good to spot turtles.... More

Expensive for what you get but we justified that we required a fridge, hot shower and AC is imperative, so we had to pay big bucks for it. Location on the beach is very good though the chalets are in a rabbit warren all together so personal views are dire, despite the high charge. You'd have to fork out even... More

Coral View Island Resort is basically one of more expensive options you can choose in Perhentians. Compared to what you get, this is unfortunately somewhat overpriced. Basically Chales are nice if you manage to get any of the beach fronts or even garden views. However, hill view chales are somewhat different while cost almost the same. Those are quite far... More

Fantastic location for a beach holiday or a few days away. Requires 30 minute small speedboat journey from mainland - then jumping into an even smaller boat to get onshore. Rooms attractive but simple and can be relatively small, but location offsets this. Local dishes much better than Western ones in the restaurant.

This island is perfect for a get away from the stressful city. It s perfect to relax and a dream for snorcelling (clown fishes and more only 2 m from the beach). But the coral view has seen it s best days. The stuff is so unfriendly, I wonder how they still can exist. Seems like they don t know... More
