We stayed in early February and the weather was great (what monsoon season?). Our beach side chalet was perfect for relaxing whilst looking out over Tuna Bay's white sand beach. The snorkeling directly off the beach was great and we are still dreaming about the delicious BBQ's at night... oh, and the cocktails from the Tuna Club. Most of all... More

Here I am at Tuna Bay, the Perhentian Island!  Surprised with the unexpected good weather(in early February, 2012) nice staff and plentiful coral reef, fish and turtle, the starry night, nice sea view chalet with sound of rolling sea waves, very delicious food and lovely music, relaxing atmosphere, nothing is miss for my perfect holiday!  With all these, I feel...

We enjoyed Tuna Bay, which has an ideal location right on the beach and is perfect for families. We had 2 interconnecting rooms in the garden, which were clean and comfortable. The beach is nice and it is fantastic with access to the corals and fish right from the beach. The restaurant had good food and the staff was friendly.... More

I like the Tuna Bay resort, though it was a bit expensive. We were used to very cheap backpackers hostels, so that explains... The houses are nice, very comfortable bed, nice bathroom, safe inside, not much to complain about! The air-condition was very nice too. Our room didn't have any view, and we didn't spend any time on the porch... More

We were here 1 week in august 2011. We had a sunny week, sea chalet bungalow, not luxe, but you don't need that on this beautifull place! house reef is perfect to snorkel, taxi boats can bring you to turtle beach (perfect beach and snorkel) and sharks point is very nice and not dangerous. The food in tuna bay is... More

Chose the resort due to their good ratings, service was alright. But the wooden floorboards and thin partitions between the rooms make noises from kids,heavy footsteps etc easily heard. One of the better furnished resorts there but pricewise, a little costly for a place like perhentian. Would try out other resorts on my next visit. Food was acceptable, amenities -... More

I think it was good, but could have been better, specially for what you pay for and for how things are in the rest of Malaysia. We didn't get a very warm reception at our arrival and then through the following days it was clear that service wasn't their best. If the restaurant is busy, specially at night, it really... More

Overall, we enjoyed Tuna Bay and had a relaxing time. It is child-friendly and not a "party" resort (which we liked). We had two garden-facing bungalows - the rooms were clean and comfortable and it was excellent to have air-conditioning. There is an in-room safe but no fridge. The beach is nice and it was good to snorkel close to... More

No need to scuba-dive as the best snorkelling is on the doorstep right infront of the resort beach, as well as plenty snorkelling sites all around the island. Perfect for a romantic beach or family holiday. We stayed in the beach front chalet - clean and all good although you can only book in after 2pm. Good fresh food at... More
