The staff was absolutely amazing! They were friendly, courteous and helpful. Roberto that works the resort restaurant is an absolute gem. Always made sure I was well taken care of. If it's a massage you need, I highly recommend Yana. She manages to strike the perfect balance between a gentle, soothing massage and a deep sports massage. Finally, you must have a chat with Simon. You will find him at the reception as he oversees operations. He can provide you with a multitude of places to visit, restaurants to eat wherever your next destination takes you! Thankyou everyone for a great time 😁 Michael

Lovely place to go for a short break. It maybe a 3-star (I think) resort but you would not realize as the service is 5-star. The food is amazing in the resort. Simple breakfast and I had their well cooked porridge everyday. In the evenings, the grill and even their buffet was good and affordable. Just outside the resort, there are a few shops for local food. Visited a Chinese place and a Malay food shop. Overall, great place to free the mind and get better and greater ideas.

The location is amazing and set in a beautiful shallow beach which is stunning. The hotel itself is run down and in need of an overhaul. We are not overly fussy and enjoyed our time swimming and just hanging around but don’t come with high expectations of a 4 star resort.

The location is sensational - right on the beach with easy access from the jetty. The staff are incredibly friendly and accommodating, with great customer service. The place is a little run down - not surprising after Covid - and needs a bit of TLC, but the management are working hard to bring it back to its former glory and it just needs more guests to help fund their efforts. The food isn't the best, but everything else makes up for it. Highly recommend.

I enjoyed the whole stay. The staff were friendly. The place was super cleaned and well maintained eventho the place being vacant for along time due to pandemic. I went there few days after the interstate travel was allowed. Just the experience with the ferry wasn't pleasant.

Papa beach resort is one of the resort's in the Tioman Island. Tioman Island has one or two resorts in each stretch of beach. This one has rooms very close to the beach. Staff is helpful. I suggest 3 night stay to enjoy the resort, the island and take great opportunities for snorkelling and diving. Rama the manager is extra helpful, talk to him for any support

Upon checking into our room, we had to request to immediately swap rooms due to the uncleanliness of the room, and the lack of a 'beach view' which we had paid for - the view was blocked by another building and a digger making a lot of noise. We were also greeted to rubbish on our porch/leftover food remains as we entered our room. We were allocated a different room, and while we could just see a bit of the beach, the room is still extemeley unclean. There are black hairs on the floor in many places, the room is worn and dated, the cold tap does not work on the shower making it extremely uncomfortable to shower. In addition the windows in the bathroom do not close. There are bins overflowing throughout the resort
