Our stay was perfect. To be completely honest, there were a few (very!) minor things to improve on: some of the staff was obviously new to the job, the wine list was composed of one red and one white wine, some of the facilities were not finished yet (e.g. dive shop). That being said, everyone was super-friendly, helpful, motivated - we had an absolutely great time, my daughter and me. No problem stayed unsolved. The rooms were more than comfortable, the architecture of the place is beautiful, the setting on the beach and near the pool is gorgeous. If somehow possible, we will return, hopefully with all of my three daughters. Warmest thanks to the management of the hotel and of the group (and to the operations team), who are doing a difficult job in a complicated legal, tax, technical, etc. environment, but who recruited a team of motivated and cheerful young people putting real effort in their work, who are thriving for perfection, and who earned my admiration for the open-minded attitude to improvement and learning. Bravo! On a side note: we hiked in the jungle, we went for diving, was real fun. All (perfectly!) organised by the resort.

Our family of 4 (children aged 8 and 4), just arrived back after a 6 days stay at the Boat House and what an experience it was. We were picked up at the jetty pier moments after our arrival by the very kind staff of the Boat House.Upon arrival we were absolutely amazed by the beautiful surrounding of the resort, with the long sandy beach, beautiful mountains in the back.. . Our cottage was styled with a wonderful romantic, modern yet local style. The main bedroom and additional children bedroom were very spacious, clean, equipped with 2 bathrooms and everything one needs for a relaxing holidays. The most amazing part of the cottage was a dreamy terrace, right on the wonderful sandy beach just steps away from the sea. It was wonderful to sit there, relax, listen to the waves, look at the stars, play board games with the children or just talk.. Meals offered a buffet option as well as several additional dishes that could be ordered . Chef Zul was amazing for making additional non spicy dishes for our children that were not used to spicy food. All the food was delicious. The resort offers also a game room with vintage video games and traditional Malay games that we enjoyed playing with the children. The resort offers several activities. We went for a snorkeling trip which was beautiful. We were taken to an amazing beach (Coral Island) and other points where we could see baby sharks and an amazing sea life. We can not thank enough all the staff, especially Thevan and Felix for making us feel so very welcome, for their help no matter what our needs were, for accommodating us for extra nights as we wished to stay longer, despite the fact that the resort was fully booked and for caring even once we were gone. We are grateful to them for helping us create memories that will last a lifetime. In the craziness of everyday life it is finally a place to stop, breathe and reconnect with yourself and your family. We will be back soon

The resort is isolated and has its own private beach. Though the beach right in front of the hotel isn’t very suitable for snorkelling, you could leisurely take a swim during the low tide (every morning till late evening more or less), before taking a dip in the pool. The pool is super clean and excellently located facing the sea, a very relaxing place to chill on a hot day. The staffs are super friendly and the accommodation is very clean.

We stayed at the Boathouse for 8 nights and are delighted with our choice! This hotel has been open since the beginning of July and has an excellent team of young people who are very attentive to our expectations and needs. We had a buffet breakfast included in the price of our room, which was quite full. The restaurant menu is not very varied, but the possibility of choosing the buffet in the evening allowed us to try lots of things. The hotel also offers activities and excursions. For a launch, the services are quite decent and the setting idyllic. Thanks to Ravin, Prim, One, Zai and the others for their welcome ! We will be back

It is new and clean. As it was close to monsoon season, very few guests. The staff did try to show how to play some local games.. secluded due to the nature of Tioman island. Only 1 restaurant but the chef did try to accede to individual meal request that is not on the menu.

Beautiful remote location and very charming, clean and beautiful bungalows in a paradisaical setting. We also really liked the bar, pool and restaurant area with perfect beach views and the exceptional friendly stuff. The diving was fun and very well organised. Food was ok although some things weren't available at that time. There are also couple of activities on offer like boat trips etc. but these were a quite expansive compared to what you pay elsewhere.

Beautiful resort, small and not busy. Away from all the boat traffic and harbour. Great activity centre with a great snorkelling trip.
