Alunan Resort All Inclusive (2 Night Min.)

Good place to stay

We've chosen this resort for the good reviews and the unlimitted snokerling package. Indeed, the service provided by everyone there is excellent. We get to enjoy all the facilities and the staff are friendly and helpful. They are happy to help us to keep our children occupied with batik painting and board games while my husband and I are away for snokerling. The room is spacious, clean and have all the ammenities we need. We've booked a double room with an add-on bed as we wanted a more comfortable stay. The hotel upgraded us to a family room for four on the day before we checked in. The breakfast is basic but we do not expect much as the resort is located on an island. Lunch and Dinner menu are the same, you get to order everything on the menu.

Alunan Resort and its staff had provided us with impeccable service from start till end. Mr Brandon and his team were all extremely kind and attentive to our needs throughout our trip, always checking in on us to see how we were doing and if we needed anything more. The resort is also a strong advocate for protecting the environment, as shown through their dedication not only by protecting the corals, but also by minimizing wastage and smartly utilizing energy, all whilst the resort is being thoughtfully built into the landscape without machinery. They also place a great emphasis on educating guests in these areas which we felt were a great effort that should continue. The area is well preserved with a thriving aquatic ecosystem and plenty to see during snorkelling. Accommodation was spacious not only in our style of rooms but in all other room types that we had seen as well, perfect for couples or families with really nice decor as well. The resort was a culmination of beauty in the simple things, like a great view and just enough food options to get you by, which were always delicious. Highly recommended to visit Alunan at least once as its well worth the stay and more for a great relaxing and rejuvenating stay.

The room, the food served was very good. Must try, Gambas (for lunch & dinner), Keropok Lekor (for teatime). Seafood was really fresh. Just that, we need to do a small hike to our room which is located up on the hill. For the elderly, I might think it will be hard for them. So just be prepared for the hike. Also, please prepare mosquitoes repellent and cream for bites just in case you are sensitive to insect. The person in charge for our room reservation and for the whole journey Ms laili, thumbs up to her. Brandon, who in charge in the resort was fantastic too. Friendly and making sure we are comfortable. Overall, we truly appreciate the warm hospitality given to us.

Perhentian stupende alloggio un po scadente nelle parti comuni. Camere belle spaziose e con tutti i confort. Prezzo elevato

Our flight out of KL to Kuala Terrengannu was delayed. We were going to miss our boat ride to the Perhentians. We were quite upset. But the way the Alunan resort and the staff handled the whole thing was a case study in travel and hospitality. We showed up at the Kuala Besutt office and were warmly welcomed. Soon we were led to the Jetty and our things were loaded up on to a more ‘public’ but immensely comfortable transfer. Once we reached Alunan it was just magic. This was an all inclusive trip and so we made the most of it with their snorkeling trips, sea turtle viewing and the sunset cruise. Being coral and environment friendly is a theme that pervades everything at Alunan. We had a chance to visit the coral Lab and see the fantastic conservation work that they are doing. The marine biologists patiently explained the work they are doing to grow corals in the lab. The snorkeling trip was great. We felt safe and cared for. Alunan ensured that we escaped the sometime crowded areas. The room was very comfortable. They give you an aluminum bottle that one can fill at the water cooler and use it for the whole stay. There were welcome snacks and a bag to carry our wet clothes around as complimentary. The wifi was good and the bathroom had toiletries that were reef safe. I learnt about reef safe sunscreens too. The swimming pool was good for lounging. The views from some of the rooms was spectacular. Our room had a terrace sit out with partial sea view which was up a flight of stairs. Even the lights in the pathways in the resort came on with a motion sensor. The straws were made of metal. The food was wonderfully prepared. The chef ensured that as a vegetarian I had adequate food choices. He came out and spoke to us. The climb up and down is a bit steep but you soon get used to it. Watch out for mosquitoes as you are in the middle of a tropical island. This is one of the best holidays we have ever had. The staff of Alunan are fantastic and caring.
