- Perhentian Island travel guide on choosing the best accommodation on Perhentian Island.
If you are planning a trip to the Pulau Perhentian Kecil, and don't know where to stay, watch this video!
We are travelling on a budget and many of the resorts or hotels are extremely expensive, but we did not want to camp since we heard that the tent can be hot, mosquitoes can be a problem, and it can be harsh during rainy days. We had our electronics so we didn't want to risk it.
So we searched three of the cheapest accommodations on 3 of the most popular beaches in Perhentian Island.
We stayed at:
Crocodile Rock Villa at Rainforest Beach
Senja Bay Resort at Coral Bay
Seahorse Diver Guesthouse at Longbeach
Check out our video for the chalet tours and reviews. We hope this Malaysia travel guide and Malaysia travel vlog will help you plan your trip to Perhentian Island. Don't forget to watch our other Perhentian Island videos so you can get idea on things to do on Perhentian Island. If you plan to stay in Terengganu before hopping to the Island, please watch our Terengganu travel vlogs for more Terengganu travel guides and things to do in Terengganu.

🏝Perhentian Island is expensive‼️
But we found 3 different BEACHFRONT acommodations on the 3 most popular beaches on the island. They are the cheapest we found that are not camping!
Which one of these places would you choose?🏝

Between Pulau Perhentian n pulau Kapas which is better?
Wowwww Great info, Ivana! Thanks for the in-depth suggestions & tours, that will prepare my budget as well!👍🏻✌🏻5️⃣🌟
You could get cheap rooms if you're not picky. The cheapest I've paid for a night in long beach was rm35.
This is a brilliant vlog!!! Certainly gonna keep this video to plan for our future diving trip! Thanks, guys. 👍🏽👏🏽😃
@@afariznizam1519 i've been to Kapas island before, the island very peaceful and a very tiny island..within 30 mins to 1 hour you can walk/snorkel the whole island~
Honest and genuine review - 5 stars.
Ivana's research skills and effort - 5 golden stars !!!
wow! Thanks so much!!
Oh wow! Lovin these content. A summary, highlights post visit of a place is definitely awesome. Makes a good closing content for every state/location you went to. Kudos!
glad you like it!!
Love this island scenery & environment there so much. Even my DP also taken at perhentian.
You had us at mango shakes! Great review of the different accommodation options. Looks so pretty over there. Looking forward to seeing it for ourselves 😁
Wow.. thanks for the recomendation..a good hint for those who really love beach vacation..
thanks! hope this guide will help
Subscribed! Keep up the good work! Travel safe!
Excellent information. Ivana you do a fantastic job booking and talking about the accommodations!!!👍👍Keep safe and healthy.
thank you!
i am sure these are one of the places where local tourists will flock this year due to the pandemic. and your video will be a good reference for the travellers. good job. and its great to see ivana back in action after that kelantan river video. so good job guys lol.
Yeah this is the best time to travel domestically! Not too touristy and often, you will get a deal👍
hahahha u right, i rly wanted to go there and i asked my mom, we might plan to go there during my school's winter break end of this year. it looks so beautiful. the last time i went to places like this is the maldives and that was 2 years ago.
Ivana the booking warrior!
hahahah😂😂😂😂LOL
Love it!
Those villas and resorts look GREAT!
Cant wait to go there 🤗
are you planning to go soon?
@@JetLagWarriors not so soon I guess. Terengganu is rather far from where I am currently living 😆
Great video nice Ivana giving the tutorial of the island and cost, we all know freighting is not cheap especially on water😊 but over all a nice place to chill I hope you enjoyed and thank you for sharing.
thank you! Hope this video will help plan your next trip
I worked on that side of the island. Miss it so much!
We are also planning to go to Perhentian if the RMCO gets extended allowing us to stay in Malaysia longer, and this video was very helpful. Thank you, and love your channel.
thanks so much! Stay safe!
Wow excellent travel vlog
thank you!
Seahorse has a great location and love the balcony view of the beach
Yeah, it was nice just sipping coffee in the morning from our balcony
Semporna.. Malaysia's Maldives
facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.3528576923841435&type=3
But no aircond with direct exposure to the strong khatulistiwa sunlight will make the room like an oven! Better choose the room with aircond one!
wow. beautiful beach..
Perfect for swimming! And safe
Great video, informative and we'll edited. Booking room now!!
thanks!!!
Good job SENJA team for most friendly staff.
👏👏👏👏
Hope you guys enjoyed your stay @ Pulau Perhentian,everywhere’s the pros & cons,well....have a 👍🏻journey to your next destination,stay safe,enjoy & have fun👏🏻cheers😊
Thanks so much!
Haven't been to Perhentian before..... more of a Tioman guy and usually head to the beaches of Phuket & Krabi ( Pre-Covid era) but always good to new options open...... Stay safe & happy travels...
ooh maybe an option during this covid time
4th komen..yessss
Pulau perhentian is a beutiful island😍
it really is!
good information n nice vlog👍👍
I like the aircon one. I like to sleep in cold room, lol esp when the weather is cooking hot !
I stayed at Cocohut and had to walk up the steps and slope... not for old folks, lol. But the chalet is comfortable wt ac. We know the owner there.
The other place we stayed at was The Barat Perhentian resort. The food is VERY GOOD, and chalet/room is ac. Place to sit and lie on the hammock, and that is where you can see the flying squirrels.
I would recommend The Barat Perhentian resort.
The Barat Perhentian sounds amazing!!
Good job on letting Ivana do all the reservations Steve. Wives know these things like the back of their hands.
The last time I reserved a hotel, which was 11 years ago, I wish I didn't lol! My wife does it for us ever since.
hahaha what happened? Or maybe I shouldn’t ask.😝
Tq for the review... Good info for us too.... Stay safe.
yes, hope it will be useful! Thanks for watching!
@@JetLagWarriors most welcome
Thank u for your review on d best places to stay in Perhentian kecil island.
hope it helps in case you plan a holiday later on
@@JetLagWarriors it certainly does give some good ideas.
Just hope those hotel/motels operators there are watching these valuable critics and take necessary actions in order to lure more local and foreigner to this beautiful island. Fingers cross!
hope it will help hotel operators as well as travellers!
Thank you 🕺🎶💞💃
thank you!
Every time i see your video...i feel very close and know you very long time.
wow, thanks a lot!😊😊😊
Same goes to me ❤❤❤❤
Ahh we miss Long Beach!
your favourite beach in Malaysia right?
JetLag Warriors Neck and neck with Redang
@@FoodandFootprints for me,redang's long beach is more beautiful
Thanks
Tourism of Terengganu should reward u guys for promoting Perhentian Island... 😉
We are still growing our channel! Would love some featured collaborations one day. That’s our intention! Stay tuned as we grow 😎
@@JetLagWarriors
Well done & all the best !
whats up guys, love your video. I just got started on youtube, just came back from Pangkor island i ll be posting my video on Saturday
awesome!
AC and clean modern toilet is a must ,must ,must.
Resort Operater please take note.
Pls go to pulau redang..best of Malaysia
Tips: In Malaysia weather, space with AC will always win. 😁
But it's all Coz of the ac which coz it to get heat up more
Ok, for that, i will go for senja. Thanks steve and ivana for your reviews. The problem is, im still searching for the best date for my family trip to perhentian island😂
once you set the dates, enjoy your holiday!
i wish i can resucscribe again & again to yr channel everytime i watch yr new video! 😆😆😆 keep on having fun & stay safe!
wow!❤️ Thanks so much!! Such a nice comment
I sent 1 week in long Beach 20 years ago. It has changed so much since then . Long Beach was amazing weather went snorkeling and saw tones tropical fish and even saw reef sharks. I thought long Beach was way better then bondi Beach, Australia
I would have gone with Senja Bay too!
the best one👍
Thank you so much for making this video!
This afternoon i was just asking that Crocodile Rock's Airbnb host about the question of AC and then they sounds so rude to me and tell me don't book their place and blablabla....
i wonder how did they get that super host badge...OMG their attitude is sucks!
The owner of Crocodile Rock are not the friendliest people. We didn’t want to mention it in our video, we don’t know what they are going through.
Good search Ivana n you are a fantastic you tuber
thanks so much
👍👍👍
I just came back from Perhentian. Stayed at Bubu Villa and the price is equivalent to the pool suite in St Regis Langkawi!
Bibi villa is the most luxury resort in long beach after Mimpi I guess.
Ivana such a lovely lady👍👍
Love to see all your videos
thank you
Thank you for your review. Wow it's not cheap, do they include breakfast for that price?
I'd chose Senja Bay resort too.😉
Have a pleasant & safe journey to where you both will be going next...see ya
no breakfast unfortunately
The first one....
The beaches got bigger and nicer each place you stayed
yeah! Each spot got its pros and cons😁
Your drone footage makes Perhentian island so beautiful. This island is definitely recommended to tourists.
thanks. Not hard when the island is really beautiful
@@JetLagWarriors Perhentian, Kapas, Redang, they r all paradise islands.
Hi, great information, what month did you stay? Heat in crocrodille rock at night? We have a reservation in June, thank you
Redang island is near to perhentian.. u should go there too
we will go back when we have the chance!😊
I agree, it is fabulous there.
well I would say for a local person these price are still quite expensive. if you are solo or just boys you could chose `Butterfly Chalet` it cost 60-80RM/night
Is that the cheapest to stay? Can we do day trip or it would be too short to explore.
182Like😍😍 Awesome video💖💖💖
Wow that place is beautiful! unbelived turquoise beaches, no idea why they are saying that langkawi is the best beach in malaysia, that beach looks like a fairy tale compared to anything ive seen. equivalent to niagra falls of beaches??
Yes nice Island
How about telecommunication?
Network line is ok or not?
I think i choose senja accomodation
same!!
u should go legoland
Ivana really got an accent in this video!! Never heard it before.
It becomes stronger when she is nervous! Haha still trying to be more confortable in front of the camera...
second
Try redang island please
Hi can you tell me how to book room in seehorse divers. I can find it in Internet. Thank you
I've never booked any accommodations in advanced when going to Perhentian Kecil considering that I've been there numerous times. I think it's old habit. Would only look for a room once I set foot on the island. The same goes with kapas island. I would tell my wife if we can't find a room, we'd sleep on the beach, but that never happens.
haha we didn’t want to take the risk of sleeping on the beach lol. Not with our electronics.
Everyone love anything with ac in it...especially ac mizal. No doubt.
yes, you are right!
Pulau Perhentian is expensive to going there.. We locals also pay more than other islands in Malaysia such as Pangkor, Redang, etc.. Better spend it to Mabul Island, Sipadan Island etc..
hope we can go to the borneo side one day
When are you going to taman negara guys..
after KB maybe next week?
What country bro
Good Video, but I can't get it why you don't talk about the exact prices of meals when you do a "Budget" Video
..
Hai guys are still in Kota baharu if you are I have new please for you guys to eat it call little Switzerland restaurant in Kota baharu town,the owner is a real Switz guy.
Do you guy's remember how much time does it take from Senja bay to long beach by walking ? Google maps couldn't show me a route.
about 15 -20minutes!
Do you guys know perhentian got 2 island. Perhentian Kecil(Small) and Perhentian Besar(Big)? you guys are staying at Perhentian Kecil.
yes. Actually there are cheaper options on Perhentian Besar but not much to do
on a budget??
