    As a native Terengganu I think your review is rather spot on. If you have the budget and it’s your first time to Redang, Laguna is a good bet for a good experience. Once you get to know the place already then you can try out the cheaper options with less facilities. Some regulars are just happy with cheaper ones because they’re only there for the dives and just needed a place to sleep and eat in between dives.

      Redang Island was pretty amazing and the snorkelling was some of the best we have experienced around the world. We were especially excited when we saw the reef shark! You are right, in terms of all inclusive hotels worldwide, the Laguna Resort still represents great value!

    I have been to Redang Island and stayed at Laguna Resort Hotel as well. I loved this island but neighbouring Perhentian Islands was nice too. I have also been to Tioman Island and Kapas Island (this one as a day trip from Kuala Terengganu). I've always been to these places in the summer months where Langkawi and Penang were better in the winter months

    I will be back in South East Asia but this time with my mother and her best friend. I think we could split the bill in one of the cheaper resorts if we have a room with three single beds.

    sadly the island inhibitants lack the concern to protect their turtles. According to a turtle lab in one of the resorts, the fishermen are willing to kill entangled turtles than to cut their fishing nets. There is also illegal selling of the turtle eggs in the black market. Although some areas are protected under the Malaysian law, vast areas of beaches are still prone to poachers. In addition, the sighting of the last turtle leatherback was seen on 2017. There was no sighting of the leatherback ever since. Some of the rarest species of fish were nowhere to be found ever again.

    I beg to differ your opinion on the Malaysian KFC mashed potato. I live in Sydney and occasionally eats KFC here but I hate the mashed potato here. It is just too rich gravy and not much of mashed potato. Also, the coleslaw in Malaysian KFC taste better than Australian KFC. Sorry Mate, I'm saying this not because I am biased being Malaysian but I have tasted other countries' KFCs as well i.e. India, UAE, Italy but nothing compared with the juiciness of the original KFC chicken, mashed potato and colesalw in KFC Malaysia. 😅
