Perhentian Marriott Resort & Spa

Almost everything was perfect—a luxury resort set in Kecil’s lush nature, with gorgeous rooms, pools, staff and all the facilities. The only drawbacks were: 1) if your schedule doesn’t match the Marriott’s free ferry you feel a bit ignored and get no help paying for the island, as they push their own ferry or pricey private boats while agencies offer cheaper, flexible options; 2) you’re basically forced to eat at the hotel’s restaurants because there’s nothing within walking distance and the nearby restaurant was closed for the holiday week, so I’d expand the dining choices.

Everything was fine.

The property is beautiful, rooms are spacious and cozy, the à la carte restaurant is excellent, and the evening bar serves really good burgers and pizza. The nearby beaches are lovely and the sea is gorgeous. Free transport with luggage delivery to the room is great. However, there’s no taxi‑boat service to the other beaches. The beach under the hotel could be better equipped, while the second beach, Romantic Beach, has a few umbrellas and is stunning in the morning but gets crowded with boats later, making the water dirty. It rains every evening on the islands, and although that’s normal, the à la carte restaurant is outdoors; if it rains it may close or half the tables become unusable, so some sliding windows would help. The buggy service inside the village stops working in rain, so if your room isn’t near the services you end up walking in water. I ran out of umbrellas in my room and asked someone kindly to bring one for dinner, but no one did; I had to knock on the next room to borrow one. The pools are gorgeous, but the most beautiful one – the infinity pool overlooking the sea – is also the smallest, with very few loungers, and guests fight over them; rude people leave their stuff there for hours. It’s truly the best resort on the island with great potential, but more could be done.

“Top”

The hotel was almost new, splendid, and the room was absolutely magnificent and spacious. The large pool, private beach, and everything else were perfect. The only negative was that the dining was a bit pricey, especially the à la carte restaurant.

“Parfait”

The room was magnificent, the bed comfortable, the bathroom super functional, and you could call staff for buggy taxi service to various spots around the hotel. The LAP pool was great, breakfast was superb, staff were adorable, and some activities were included (kayak, trek…). The only downside was that the path to Long Beach was a bit chaotic, though it’s only 10 minutes. I would like Booking to contact us again after they cancelled our reservation and charged us an extra €800 to secure the trip.
