Salang Sayang Resort: the chalet with a quite long stretch of beach Salang Sayang Resort Review

This is the only place with a good stretch of white sandy beach!!! The surrounding is always clean.

There're various types of room to choose: Seaview, garden view, Banana Hill, family room n etc. All rooms are equipped with toilets.

The best chalets are No 15, 16 n 17...they're right in front of the beach! They also have chalets on a hill (Banana Hill).

I've stayed here twice...once in the room on the hill...the room was nice but need to climb up a flight of stairs so it was a bit tiring...n once in the room in front of the beach...really cool...sightseeing was just on the doorstep.

It's nothing like Berjaya Resort or other 5 star resorts...expect basics but there're a few ac rooms with hot water. For someone who're only in the room during sleeping time...like myself...would be most suitable...Room rates are around RM60-RM180.

Service was fine...I always get what I want on time...fresh towels...bedsheets...n etc.

If you need reading materials, there's a mini library at the reception counter. You may consult the receptionist for this.

Interested to go island hopping, snorkeling, fishing n other water activities? Just drop by at the resort's Beach Equipment shop n consult the workers. They're very2 helpful n friendly.

If you need anything to buy...just hop in its mini mart. The thing I like most bout it...everything here is well arranged n very organized. Unfortunately, you may not find everything here...it's just a small size shop.

There're plenty of hammocks tied up to coconut trees along Salang Sayang...really nice. Need to be fast to book your favourite hammock...they're occupied most of the time. Some tourists even chose to sleep in it...cool...

It's wise to make early reservation...the place is always packed...

Through my experience n interviews with some locals...the place has always been favoured by many foreigners...infact..in one of my stay...my bestfriend n myself were the only Malays there...suddenly we felt as if we were somewhere else...not in Malaysia!!!! Hahahahah

Unique Qualities: The view is great here....especially if you check in into chalet 15, 16 n 17. Don't have to go far for the view...seating by the veranda is enough for sightseeing...

Salang Pusaka Resort: nice garden resort Salang Pusaka Resort Review

The place has a nice garden...with variety of plants n trees. Room rates are around RM45-RM200. I stayed here once...it was an ac room with hot water n a fridge that cost me RM120. The room was nice n comfortable but the only view I had was plants, trees n grass. It'll take you a few minutes to the beach.

Unique Qualities: For those seeking comfort on Salang Village..this is the place...

Address: Salang Village

Comparison: about average
