DORIS MATAKING RESORT ★★★★
"After looking at many hotels, I finally chose this relatively new resort. After checking in, I found it even better than I expected. The value for money was truly excellent. We weren't disappointed. Perhaps because it's new, the owner greeted us, and the service from the waiter was excellent. Everyone was smiling, the environment was lovely, and the rooms were five-star quality. The restaurant is right by the sea, with a relaxing sea breeze. I highly recommend this resort to friends. If you're posting on your Moments for friends, this resort is perfect for posting at any time of day."
Mataking Reef Resort ★★★★★
"The room is OK, the food is average, the scenery is OK, remember to buy some drinks and mineral water on the island"

Sea Star Resort Semporna ★★★★
"This resort is unbeatable—the amenities, surroundings, room size, and food were all top-notch. My friend and I are so grateful to the staff, who were amazingly warm and helpful throughout our entire stay. This place truly deserves all the recognition it can get."
POM POM Island Resort ★★★★
"The environment is absolutely fantastic, no doubt about that, it's just that the facilities are indeed old. The buffet taste is decent, acceptable. Another thing is that you can't access the sea directly from your room."
SKY Water Villas ★★★★
"Perfect stay, unforgettable 3 nights and very nice staff! Bathrooms to be improved and maybe an idea to have paid service for drinks. Really delicious and diversified food for all tastes."
Pearl Island Resort ★★★★★
"This is by far the worst five-star hotel I've ever stayed in. The service simply doesn't match the price. This fairy island has multiple embarkation piers, but the hotel failed to notify us in advance which pier to use for Pearl Island. We contacted Ctrip customer service, but they gave us the wrong pier name. Luckily, we arrived at the pier 40 minutes early. Luckily, we didn't just wait until 12:30 as the pier vendors told us. Luckily, when we contacted Ctrip, someone mentioned that we needed to register at the pier. We asked over 10 people, and everyone gave us conflicting directions. Finally, a local told us the correct pier name and offered to drive us there for 50 yuan. Luckily, we made it in the last few minutes (otherwise there's only one boat per day, imagine the urgency!). Upon reaching our room, we found it had two air conditioners, but the temperature just wouldn't go down. The bathroom floor and ceiling were hollow, so we had to keep the thick curtains completely drawn all day, blocking the view outside, making it feel like a sauna. The room also 'coexisted with nature' – there were mosquitoes 🦟, cockroaches 🪳, ants 🐜, and geckos 🦎… To go hiking, you need to book a day in advance and are required to pay at the front desk at 7:30 AM the next day. We went at 7:30 AM sharp, but the front desk wasn't open yet. After waiting a while, someone arrived, we paid, and returned to our room. Immediately, the phone rang – the trip was canceled because it was a holiday. We had to go back to the front desk for a refund, which could only be given in cash. The whole process was incredibly bizarre and showed no consideration for customer convenience or experience. The hotel has no swimming pool and no entertainment. The breakfast, lunch, and dinner buffets are predominantly fried food. All drinks are locked up. For such an expensive room rate, they are extremely stingy. An elderly woman who came to the island on the same boat didn't speak English. Seeing snacks on the buffet, she thought they were free (the hotel's own setup was unreasonable) and took some. A staff member loudly reprimanded her, shouting 'money money pay,' and even swore at her. The front desk service isn't 24-hour. The golf carts also have operating hours. The day before check-out, no one contacted us in advance. In the morning, we had to drag our luggage to the pier ourselves. The life jackets on the boat were dirty and had missing buttons… There are too many things to complain about. The day we left, I finally felt a sense of escape. This was my first and last time here."
The Buwan Dive Resort ★★★
"Charming and efficient staff, very well-organized diving club, very good restaurant"
Orange Wave ★★★★
"The atmosphere here is amazing, my wife took some fantastic photos, there are activities every night so you're never bored, and the cleanliness is superb—everything is brand new. It even has a pool and hammocks. I'll definitely come back next time; we didn't get enough fun! The owner is incredibly welcoming, and every staff member greets you with a smile. You don't even need to carry your own luggage. In short, I'll be back again. See you at Orange Beach in June!"
WB Shun Shun Water Bungalows ★★★
"Very good, excellent service."
