A pleasant surprise
This is a small hotel in a beautiful setting. The staff are incredibly attentive; the food is simple but prepared with care and there are a number of activities organized by smiling and helpful staff. This hotel does not have Wi-Fi but this was clearly adviced before I booked and although i was hesitant initially about this, I learnt to live without it and I might do this more often from now on. I would highly recommend this hotel.

Friendly, spectacular location, clean, on beach
Very small hotel/resort. Fantastic experience. Extremely friendly hotel staff. Very clean. Well organised. Food is set but different theme each night and delicious. Snorkelling straight off the beach. Plenty of wildlife.

Small family run resort operating at high standard
Intimate feel. Our 6 y.o. was the only child there at the time, but staff made him very welcome. The beach can get a bit rocky at low tide. The beach is protected from surf and "enclosed" by a rock jetty so safe for kids. Food was good, not great, but fine. Grounds are pretty. Nice walks to the village, waterfall (longer walk) and nearby resort. Boat transfers from the ferry's drop off are a bit pricey. But all in all a very good stay. We were happy to be at this small resort rather than one of the big ones. Great tea time each day for a drink and snack! Beautiful water views (we had a waterside room). No wi-fi and only 2 G data. Go on, disconnect!

Amazing
Stayed here for 2 nights. We were welcomed by the owner, Tony when we reached the private Jetty. Followed by welcome drink and towel. It was a good start. Tony explained to us about his resort and scuba packages before we check in. That was very informative. To a city girl like me, I wasn't really enjoyed the 1st day because except snookering and eating, there is nothing much I can do (No WIFI, No Karaoke, No Board games etc). But after a night, I started to feel the beauty of it. I learned to relax (I think this is what Tony wants their guests to be), enjoy the sun, sea, and every breeze and star. During the Shark feeding at 9pm, we laid on the bench, looking at the sky counting the stars. It was amazing. We truly enjoyed it. Meal - Breakfast and Dinner are provided. But I think their dinner starts a bit late, at 8pm. My kids were extremely hungry after so much exercise during the day. So I would suggest you to bring some snacks just in case. Sea - beautiful bay they have. We spotted beautiful fishes near the jetty. It's not easy to spot baby shark and turtle. A bit disappointed but overall, we still happy with what we saw. Especially the last day we finally spotted a sea turtle but too bad, we were packed and leaving soon. Will I go back again? Definitely. We miss the crew and will definitely plan to take the diving course one day.

Great resort, awesome reef
Tony, the owner, came to welcome us personally at the jetty when we arrived. He took such good care of us and made us feel so at home. The small resort gives very cosy personal service, was very quick in responding to queries and even helped us to purchase the ferry tickets which we picked up easily from their office near the Mersing ferry terminal. Though there was no WIFI or TV at the resort, we were too busy enjoying nature to even miss them. Appreciated the enforced detoxification from electronic gadgets and focus on family bonding. The unlimited free water, freshly made cakes for high tea, and delicious meals were nice touches. Also liked the sand toys, but suggest that there could also be some board games and free snorkelling equipment (instead of charging rental) The highlights of our trip was certainly the amazing reef not far from shore, full of colourful corals and fish. We even found a ray amongst the rocks! Another highlight was the nightly fish feeding at the jetty. It attracted at least 10 reef sharks! Our family had an awesome time and will love to come again. Certainly recommended for anyone in search for a quiet relaxing break.

a wonderful Malaysian stay
a very beautiful place to relax and get away from everything. Perfect for swimming,diving, a bit too hot at the time to undertake the walks. The accomodation was excellent, fantastic position overlooking the sea, food was superb, staff most friendly. On arrival my wife was overcoming a health problem, the owner showed concern and accommodated her needs well over the coming days. Highly recommend this for a getaway

Great and chill place.
I came with my family and had a relaxing time. The resort did not have wifi, which I thought was going to be an issue but it was nice to be unplugged for a couple of days. We did have lunch at the resort 10 minutes away to get wifi one day. The beach was beautiful and great access to snorkeling. The dive shop arrangements were really easy and laid back. The staff were friendly and laid back! I definitely will go back and recommend it.

Idyllic Getaway
If you are looking for a friendly, relaxed place to escape to then this is it! Stunning location, friendly staff and a back to nature feel. Clean, simple accomodation, delicious food. Stormy and Becky offer great diving/ snorkelling experiences but great snorkelling straight off the beach. Bus and ferry from Singapore was easy.

Something that is different compared to other hotel is personal care by hotel's manager to each of clients. She explained to us about black out notified by electrity provider for example. The place also not so crowded so we felt more privacy.

An island resort getaway.
Lovely stay at this remote Tioman Island resort. Very friendly staff and with a personal touch. Nicholas (the manager) and Stormy (the diving instructor) were great and made our stay really enjoyable. The beach, coral and sea life was beautiful and the diving excellent. It was a real break and getaway, no need for WiFi, smartphones, or TV. The ratings for this resort are thoroughly deserved. We hope to be back one day!

Beautiful beach and coral, and incredible service.
I don't usually do reviews, but this was a really excellent experience. Minang cove is a fairly small group of chalets, and when we landed, all the staff we met knew which group we were in, and which chalet we were staying in. Minang's manager was incredibly friendly and welcoming. Arranging for any activity was really easy, and the staff take the time to tell you anything you need to know. The area near the shore at Minang Cove has a LOT of fish. We took a boat out to a nearby island, and snorkeled there too. The accommodations were comfortable and spacious (we had 4 people in a seaview cabin, and there was plenty of space, it was clean, and the view was nice). One thing though, there was no Wi-Fi; but after we reached, the lack of Wi-Fi was really not a concern. It was a great place to get away.
