Isolated beautiful private beach

When the booking was made, it was stated that breakfast included. However, when the booking by the resort, it showed only for room. So I had to pay separately at the resort for breakfast. This shouldn't have happened. From the resort notification booking.com app, I received a text saying to click the link to finalise the reservation after clicking on it ,asked to update credit card and insert sms code ,without realising I inserted, it was a bank OTP number. I was scammed, and I was charged 2x (despite only inserted once). Bulgarian currency 728 x2 was charged in my credit card.

Very good

A restful respite from the city.

The beach chalet was spacious with a large, private balcony overlooking the beach. Very comfortable. The resort is quite private, a 30 minute jungle walk to Genting or Paya. Very family friendly. The 3 hour snorkeling trip was amazing. Beautiful, varied corals; fish, turtles, reef sharks. Cost RM185 per adult.

I did not like the noisy, smelly, petrol leaf blower. A broom would be more effective, better for the ambience and more environmentally friendly. While respecting that the resort is alcohol free, it would have been nice to have a selection of mocktails and pre-dinner snacks to go with watching the spectacular sunsets.

The tranquility. Its really low key and an awesome relaxing vibe. Breakfast was really yummy. Loved the books they had on hand too

There were two big boulders in the room, poking out of the floor. The cabin appeared to have been constructed around them. It was weird and painful for some toes at night! The property regularly burned rubbish close by

Great staff and vibe, but terribly overpriced experience

First and foremast, the staff is amazing: very friendly, relaxed, helpful. That's really the most memorable part for us. Thank you dear Melina Beach Resort staff, you are fantastic! The beach is beautiful and the environment there really let's you relax and disconnect from everything else. Well done! The chalets have a nice basic vibe and it's generally very quiet. The resort applies basic sustainability principles so you wont find single use plastics in your room or restaurant, plus it seems the rooms/chalets have integrated well with the surrounding nature.

Price/value is totally off and feels like tailored to western tourists that don't know better. - Food: too expensive for Malaysia standards. For example, beef rendang, costs 45 RM - which is 10 USD or 13 SGD. This is not very expensive for Europeans maybe, but here is some context: In Singapore, the most expensive country in the world, you can find the same dish for 4 SGD/3 USD in a hawker centre and lets not forget that Malaysia is considered a low cost country. In Mersing, the ferry terminal city to Tioman Island, my wife and I got a vegetarian omelette, chicken noodles and 2 drinks for 3 USD (!). In addition, there is really no other F&B/restaurant you can go to as you need to take a hotel boat to genting jetty to have more options or you walk 30 minutes through the beaten off paths through the jungle alongside the beach. - Room facilities, esp. bathroom, is worn down a bit: Water running out of the toilet on floor, crooked sink, toilet flush not working properly (sometimes yes, sometimes not). We ran into high season it seems as we paid ~375 SGD / ~270 USD per night for a basic chalet (including simple but tasty breakfast buffet). Read that again... and check what you get on Koh Tao (a somewhat comparable island in Thailand) or other places in South East Asia for that. Hence we came to expect a top-notch resort like the Buri Rasa on Koh Phangan (go if you can! it's a dream!). We left Melina Beach a bit disappointed for this unexplainable price strategy... So if the price is 1/3 of what we paid, plus reduced food prices in the resort, I would recommend it. Given all above points though, we can't recommend this resort as much as this saddens us as the staff and vibe is amazing. We are sharing this with good intent, as we believe feedback creates transparency and helps to improve, so I hope the owners of the Melina Beach Resort kindly accept the feedback.
