I just came back from my visit in early July. SARI is definitely the best in terms of environment. The quiet and clean garden is full of frangipani trees, and the faint fragrance of frangipani fills the air in the morning. The decoration of the room is indeed a bit old. The wardrobe, TV cabinet, bathroom and toilet are obviously more than 10 years old. But other than that, the 46-square-meter pool view villa and sea view villa are really comfortable. They are all independently distributed, so they don't disturb each other. The beds inside are also very comfortable and clean. The bad thing is that if you want to change the sheets, you must communicate with the front desk, otherwise they will not take the initiative to change them. The smell of the toilet is also very bad. Turn off the exhaust fan in the toilet, and the bad smell will dissipate a lot. We stayed for 4 nights, and all three meals were buffets every day. During this period, the guests who came to SARI for vacation were basically half Chinese, half locals and foreigners, and the local women were all Muslims wearing headscarves, so the meals served in the resort were all Malaysian-style, mainly beef, chicken and fish, and there were also shrimps, but there were no crabs. Beef is available every day, either fried beef or pan-fried beef ribs. For chicken, you can stir-fry, curry or deep-fry. Fish can also be fried or curried. The staple food is rice and pasta. There is a delicious soup every day, mushroom cream soup/beef soup/borscht. Hot tea and coffee are available all day. Freshly squeezed red/white guava juice and orange juice are real ingredients and very delicious. Fruits include watermelon, cherry tomatoes, honeydew melon and pineapple. There is a lack of green vegetables. Except for the lunch on the day of landing and the last dinner before leaving the island, there is no green vegetables to eat. But overall, it suits the taste of Cantonese people.

About room :
I see many other comments about Sari Pacific resort.Someone criticizes the room is not clean.In fact it is not really true.In fact in bathroom there is mildew on the wall and resort is not really new.But I'd like to say at least the bed is clean and there is no smell in room.The resort built nearby ocean is difficult to maintain ,if you really require clean and cozy you can chose summer bay resort, but it is much more expensive than Sari.
About food :
My package only include breakfast.To be honest it is just so so.We bought some instant food in Terengganu for lunch.And we went to summer bay for dinner(29 rm for one fried rice.it is the most fried rice I have ever had).I highly recommend you guys bring enough food and drink to island!
About island:
Perfect!10 out of 10!The most beautiful sea I've ever seen.The best thing is you can see a lot of fish and baby shark just near the shore.
About staff:
Also perfect!Every staff is friendly and warm.There are some comments criticize resort for facility or room but no comment criticizes staff.So you can imagine how nice the staff are!
In summary Sari is a nice but not perfect resort.If you want to save money and don't require perfect room ,just chose it.Trust me, the ocean and the great staff won't let you down~
