Paya Beach Resort: Nice Place to Relax Paya Beach Resort Review

As most people stay at Salang Beach, Paya Beach is less known (which is a good thing). Paya Beach Resort is located Tanjong Gemok of Pulau Tioman. The entire place is very much nicer than those resorts at busy Salang Beach.

Standard Chalet : RM180 with breakfast.

Unique Qualities: - Restaurant which serves nice food
- Dive Centre
- Swimming Pool
- Spa (But I don't think is in operation)
- Nice beach front
- Big rooms (Standard chalets or Deluxe chalets)
- A duty free shop (Tioman is a duty free island. Cheap liquor anyone?)

Address: Tanjong Gemok, Pulau Tioman

Comparison: about average

Price: US$40-80

Panuba Inn: Nice Inn on Nice Beach Panuba Inn Resort Review

A nice place to chill out. The only place to stay on Panuba Beach. There is a dive centre attached to it. Dive Centre is Bali Hai. Panuaba is next to ABC Beach. Sometimes, if the speedboat doesn't go to the Panuba Jetty, alight at the ABC jetty and take a boat taxi there. Boat taxi costs RM5 per pax per trip.

There is a quiet beach and the beach is swimmable and quite nice for snorkelling.

Unique Qualities: Good views of the ocean from the rooms. Rooms all face the sea.

There is a restaurant which serves reasonably-priced food.

An AC Double Room is RM98. Email them to book. There are cheaper rooms and for those who are looking for family rooms, do check out there website.

Address: Panuba Inn, Panuba Beach, Pulau Tioman

Comparison: less expensive than average

Price: less than US$20
