"Hôtel très sympathique et agréable, cadre magnifique, personnel agréable et serviable. Chambres correctes, salle de bain minimaliste mais ok. Seul gros bémol : le restaurant, vraiment pas au top, ni en qualité ni en choix. Petit déjeuner buffet très décevant, sans intérêt. Restaurant testé une fois, ça a suffit (même le riz blanc était mauvais). Spa agréable pour un massage délassant. Bref, un bon hôtel mais un peu cher en rapport qualité/prix."

"6 jours dans cet hôtel et extrêmement déçu. Alors dans un premier temps les lits sont sales à notre arrivés ainsi que les serviettes, la salle de bain des fourmis partout. Nos filles sont tombées malade, je les ai contactés pour qu’ils viennent changer le linge de lit car elles avaient vomi. Ils m’ont donné du linge de lit pour moi le changer, je leur ai demandé de le faire. Le petit déjeuner laisse à désirer et pour terminer faut savoir qu’ils ne viennent pas nettoyer les chambres tant que vous...

The Barat Perhentian Beach Resort

The Barat Perhentian Beach Resort

10/10 Excellent
"We had a wonderful stay in a Family Seaside Room with our 2 teens. Spacious and comfortable, strong AC. Wifi worked, hot shower, comfortable beds, mini fridge. Basic amenities. They gave 4 water bottles and a new roll of toilet paper per day and beach towels were available at the front desk. We enjoyed the chairs on our porch and the amazing view of the other island. The way the island is set up, there are only beach paths which cut through all the hotels so you do get a lot of people walking in front of the room along the path - not the place for you if you want something more private (or pick a room farther in the back without a view). We loved people watching along the jetty and enjoyed the vibe. It was quiet for sleeping times. A quick and easy 5 minute walk to Coral View beach and another couple minutes to PIR beach. Just breathtaking beaches! Clear water, amazing snorkeling right off the beach. Restaurant on site had great food, took credit cards and we loved hanging out there for the evenings but the service was hit or miss. Get there early or wait for a table for a long time. They forgot part of our order on 3 occasions and we had to ask, after a 40 minute wait. Also more expensive than other places as they add 20% tax/gratuity. Overall, we kept our expectations low as the islands aren't very developed or luxurious but we were comfortable, felt safe and left feeling very happy. The Perhentians are incredible and this hotel made for a great home base during our stay."
