Terengganu Hotels

In the Terengganu state, there are actually less hotel when compared to all the nearby islands surrounding Terengganu. The reason behind this is because most of the time, tourists only visit Terengganu due to the fact where Terengganu acts as a check point for tourists visiting the nearby island. However, despite this reason, there are still some hotels in Terengganu which are suitable for the more luxurious travelers and as well as the budgeted travelers. Both of these hotels are known as the Grand Continental Hotel and the Ping Anchorage accommodation.

Firstly, the Grand Continental Hotel is suitable and ideal for the travelers who wish to spend a night in Terengganu in a more luxurious manner. With RM 185 per night, the Grand Continental Hotel is considerably cheap as from the hotel, the breathtaking view of the sparkling South China Sea is already worthwhile. In addition to the scenic South China Sea, the Grand Continental Hotel is also surrounded by few of the interesting landmarks of Terengganu such as the Floating Mosque, Pasar Payang and some other historical architecture. As for the facilities of the Grand Continental Hotel, the customer can expect a full range of facilities and as well as services such as a boutique, a large swimming pool, a business centre and also a coffee house serving food from breakfast to supper.

For the budgeted travelers or backpackers, the Ping Anchorage accommodation is definitely an excellent choice for accommodation. The Ping Anchorage accommodation is actually selected by Lonely Planet as one of the ideal accommodation due to a few reasons where firstly, it is one of the cheapest accommodation ranging from RM 13 to RM 35 depending on the types of rooms and secondly, it is strategically located at the centre of the town where all of the interesting places to visit such as China Town are just a stone’s throw away. In addition to that, for the travelers who are traveling to the Berjaya Redang Beach Resort, the Ping Anchorage accommodation makes an ideal choice as the pier for picking up the travelers visiting the Berjaya Redang Beach Resort is just 5 minutes walk away. For this sort of bargain, the customer at the Ping Anchorage accommodation will only get all the basic facilities such as a bathroom, a bed and a room equipped with ceiling fan. However, for a mere RM35, there is also an air-conditioned room available should the customer wishes to stay in one.

There are huge choices of accommodations to choose from at the Redang Island of the Terengganu state. Within all of these choices, there are two of the most commonly preferred accommodations which are the Berjaya Redang Beach Resort and the Laguna Redang Island Resort.

First of all, for the Berjaya Redang Beach Resort, this resort is actually owned by the diversified public listed company which is the Berjaya Group. The Berjaya Redang Beach Resort is actually situated at an isolated beach front where it is located at the Teluk Dalam Kecil (north of Redang Island). Although the rate for both the Berjaya Redang Beach Resort and the Laguna Redang Island Resort are the same at RM 331 per night, some of the travelers prefer the Berjaya Redang Beach Resort. Firstly, the sea water at the beach side is calmer as Teluk Dalam Kecil is shielded from the wind by a few unoccupied nearby islands. Besides that, the beach of the Berjaya Redang Beach Resort can be regarded as a private beach due to the reason where only the hotel’s guests have access to the beach side. To keep the long reason short, the Berjaya Redang Beach Resort can be said to be a perfect place for those seeking a refugee in a tranquil and calming resort. Despite being isolated from the crowds, the Berjaya Redang Beach Resort still offers a wide variety of services such as jungle trekking, scuba diving, snorkeling, tennis, spa and other sea sport facilities. In addition to that, the Berjaya Redang Beach Resort also offers a wide choice of cuisines in their restaurant where there is a different theme or menu each night.

For the travelers who love to stay at a more bustled and crowded beachside, the Laguna Redang Island Resort is the perfect answer. Besides the Laguna Redang Island Resort on Redang Island, this resort is also being surrounded by some other hotels or resorts. The beachside at the Laguna Redang Island Resort is more crowded by people and scuba divers due to the reason where the beachside is shared among all the guests staying in different accommodations. In addition to that, the night life around the Laguna Redang Island Resort is more happening compared to the Berjaya Redang Beach Resort due to the reason where most of the happening night spots are all located at around the Laguna Redang Island Resort. Aside from that, the facilities offered by the Laguna Redang Island Resort are almost identical to the Berjaya Redang Beach Resort. However, The Beach Bistro at the Laguna Redang Island Resort is always flooded with guests from morning until night because the view from this bistro is just as spectacular as the whole island itself.

Aside from these resorts in Redang Island, for the travelers who are visiting the Perhentian Island, there is also an available resort which is known as the Perhentian Island Resort. The rate of the Perhentian Island Resort is just half the rate of the Berjaya Redang Island Resort. However, minus the facilities, the scenery view of the sea from Perhentian Island Resort is just as great as any other resorts. The reason behind the cheaper rate of the Perhentian Island Resort is the atmosphere of the resort. Compared to the Berjaya Redang Beach Resort or the Laguna Redang Island Resort, the Perhentian Island Resort gives a slightly more traditional and down to earth atmosphere to the guests staying there. Aside from the atmosphere, some of the scuba diving enthusiasts prefer to stay at the Perhentian Island Resort because there are quite a few good diving spots located nearby to the resort.

Regardless of which hotels or resorts to choose from in Terengganu and as well as the islands nearby, it is always necessary to pre book the accommodations due to the reason where most of the hotels or resorts especially at the Redang Island and the Perhentian Island are being constantly sought after.
