“Get the deluxe room”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 20 February 2012 via mobile
4
people found this review helpful

Our boat arrived tioman bejaya docking port at 9.30pm and we haven't made any bookings. Luckily we met two local boys who recommended Coral Reef.

Checked out the room conditions of their budget room RM50 and deluxe room RM100. Their deluxe room was heaven compared to the budget one. It was beachfront (literally), the ensuite toilet was made of marble tiles and really clean. Had AC, hot shower, twin bed, TV and the fact that it was beachfront made it super valuable.

You won't be able to find good rooms at this price at the village of ABC. Coral Reef is located at Tekek, the quieter but more beautiful village.

“A great place to stay”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 18 September 2011

people found this review helpful

We stayed here for 4 days in august 2011. Our chalet was right on the beach! Tiny but lovely decorated and clean little room, and simple clean bathroom. We (me and my 16yr old son) are backpackers so we weren't looking for resorts or any modcons and this is a lovely place to be.
The family who own it are really friendly and helpful and Tioman Cabana is right next door...a nice place to chill out. Diving schools next door too.
We wanted to stay longer but the sandflies were too much for me.

“Good place”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 1 September 2011

people found this review helpful

We arrived at Coral Reef Holidays as we had reserved another place, but it was under everything so we went to search for another place.
CRH had some rooms available, deluxe or normal room, both facing the sea and with airco, just the beds and the bathrooms were different. The deluxe room was recently renovated and painted, nice to stay with coffee facilities and TV.
Great view on the see from the chairs in front of the place, hammacs.

Breakfast is included in the price, toasts, eggs, jam and butter and some rice or pasta wit coffee or tea, simple but OK.

Easy to walk from there to jetty, find some restaurants to eat and shops to buy food and drinks.

Friendly personel, always there to help. We had a good stay!

“well well.....”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 29 July 2011

We stayed for 5 nights in the seaside chalet, RM 100 per night

The first night we almost jumped outa bed when we heard someone banging on the door, which we then realised it was our neighbour banging on his door. We can even hear their conversation over in their room.

The toilet was pretty bad. Water leaked from the toilet bowl, the drainage choked up after 5 mins of showering and we have to make sure we controlled the amount of water. Cracks on the tiled walls and it always feel like some creatures might suddenly popped out of the holes. The door couldnt be locked as well.

Basically, there is just 2 single beds and a dressing table. No hot water flask, no TV, no wardrobe. It is a simply a place to sleep that's all.
(Our neighbour had a quad-room with 2 double-deck beds)

The breakfast was nothing fantastic, just food to fill your stomach in the morning. Either plain bread (with jam / butter) or fried rice (with egg).

Pros : It is near to the eateries and convenience shops (duty free shops with cheap alcohol!) at the street.

And the view in before the chalet isnt that bad. You can view the vast sea and the sunset. There are chairs provided outside the rooms, along the walkway. Often,we sat there and read our books. It does feel great to fall asleep while listening to the sounds of the waves and be greeted by the sea breeze when you open the door. You can easily reach the seawater within 20 steps.

Free wifi available in lobby

The owner is rather friendly as well. The staffs did a great job in upkeeping the surroundings and keeping the place clean. The rooms should get a fresh look though.

Room Tip: DO get the seaview rooms if you were to stay there
