Good location, decent chalet (in particular are good those with sea view), good food……… but Abdul (the owner), similar to owners of other touristic activities on the island, is unkindness! On the contrary some native people (such as people on taxi boat) are wonderful! In any case, on pehentien besar is one of the best choice! When I was to... More

We chose this chalet because of the generally good reviews this place had, and we weren't disappointed. As what the accommodation name implies, these are chalets, so we didn't go with high expectations nor standards of a hotel. So we did not expect daily housekeeping or provided toiletries. So generally it was a pleasant stay overall. We stayed for 3... More

No offence to men working on these islands, but I think that this place is run by women and you can tell from little details: spotless rooms, the best in our 8 day stay in the islands, broom in the rooms to sweep away the sand in the balconies, water to clean your feet before you enter in the room....

We chose Abdul Chalet just because of its No.1 ranking in Perhentian (even Terengganu) B&Bs. The stay there is some kind of disappointment although Perhentian is such a great place. Positive: 1. The location is good. Easily access from jetty and also can walk to nearby beaches within mins. 2. The front beach is very clear and have many colorful... More

I've been staying twice already in Abdul Chalet. You can never go wrong with this chalet! Marine park fronting the chalet, clean and big bathroom, friendly owner, and all the basic amenities are there! The only thing that need to be improved is their own built restaurant. More choice and lotsa improvement on menu and serving need to be done.... More

We always take the garden units, no a/c but the fans in the units are OK,and we have always been comfortable there.. The garden view huts we stay at are directly behind the several expensive Beachside huts that have all the mod cons if you want the trimmings,nd you can see the beach anyway. I find the garden units more... More

We visited Abdul Chalet with friends and family in August 2011, and it was absolutely perfect. I read many reviews and based on them I picked the place, but since some were not that good I was not sure what to expect!!! The rooms are nice and clean, and this comes from a person who really appreciates cleanliness and pest... More

In general the perentians are pretty expensive in high season but even so the accomodation at abdul's is not worth the price-although decent and clean enough the sheets were a little old (and we had to ask for a bed sheet). We had to move to bubbles for 2 nights as abduls were booked up and we were so glad-bubbles... More

this review is way overdue but have been slack and decided i should contribute rather than just using others reviews... we stayed here last year... loved the location... loved the huts... we had an absolutely lovely time and spent most of our days snorkeling... we weren't too concerned that the service wasn't fabulous because we were staying in beachfront huts...

We stayed there for 5 nights in July 2011. There are undoubted pluses which are though "balanced" by apparent failures in services. We are not very exigent travellers but when you pay the certain price you expect to get the certain quality. On the plus side: - great place, the best beach in this part of the island, - very...
