Quite an expensive yet old room
Arrived well before official checkin time. Room was ready. Although they tried to upsell their newer renovated rooms which were empty. They were nice but it wasn’t a free upgrade. Their initial remark was my booked room requires stairs climbing which I did not find an issue to begin with. The basic room was pretty much the same as the one I stayed in many years ago. Clean but ancient. There were kettle and fridge. Wifi never seemed to work but I never inquired further as I have my mobile data. The pool is quite nice with sundeck overlooking the sea. Did not try their restaurant as I imagine I’d be paying thru my nose on basic dishes. The workdesk chair in the room was lousy; it was slippery and could not stay in one place so I used my laptop on the bed. For transfer to Long Beach, one of their staff offered to bring me for RM20. It’s higher than official rate of RM15 but I just went for it. The resort grounds are appropriately landscaped although not mind-blowing. Overall it was an OK stay given the location and outdoor facilities. The older rooms could stand to be cheaper if they are interested to fill them in. The less said about the renovated room and their rates, the better.

Booked a standard room with air conditioning, which was ok. Tired but clean. Could have booked a more expensive room with beach view, but I didn't and I'm not sure what those rooms were like. Nice beach 5 minute walk away. Good snorkelling from the beach. Meals were good. Had an excellent massage while I was there.

Beautiful location and v friendly helpful staff. We were in one of the oldest hill top rooms which was great and full of charm but very old and in need of repairs. The newer rooms looked very good.

Incredibly poor service!!!
Our check in service was non existent. We were told to wait and handed a key- no information was given to us. When you stay at the hotel next door (PIR) they give you lots of information about the beautiful island and their facilities. Our room was basic, not very clean and was not cleaned for the first 2 days despite us asking at Reception. Worst of all, the service was terrible. Staff don’t really care whether you enjoy your stay or not. Save yourself the hassle and stay at PIR!!!

Nice hotel near the best beach on the island
Coral View hotel is located on a nice stretch of beach opposite the village. Front chalets are very close to water, which is crystal clear here. Others are inside a beautiful garden with a waterfall, beautiful trees and sculptures or uphill. I first stayed in the most remote chalet. I had to walk for few minutes to get there, but got more exposure to different animals, like monkeys, squirrels, and water monitors. The rooms need renovation, as there are stains everywhere, the shower wasn't working etc, but I didn't come there to stay in the room. Staff is friendly, prices in the restaurant are reasonable, and there is a nice terrace where you can have a candle light dinner right above the beach.

A Hotel with
Pros: Location: The hotels looks lovely from outside and exudes semblance of style and quality. It is also in a nice corner location with sea beach in multiple sides. You can walk to the Turtle point and snorkle. Rooms: Average, beds could have been more comfortable: Cons: Wifi: Internet never could connect. The staff revealed the hotel does not have any effective wi-fi. Food: Avoid signing up for full board. There are four restaurants in this stretch of long beach all are crowded in lunch/dinner times except this one. Venture out to Mama's or Bharat's next door.

Spend more money and get a family suite
We booked a standard room and found it to be in bad condition (not clean, really far up the hill and no light in the room, items old and torn up). We appreciated the early check in. But once we saw the room (also smelled moldy) we asked if it was possible to upgrade for additional price. Luckily we were able to and the new room (family suite with ocean view) was available and was WAY nicer. Staff were great and friendly. The new room still has some broken items but still a much better room. We found the value to be acceptable. The only complaint is that we were not able to get a glass of wine with dinner while staying there. Need to walk to eat elsewhere to be able to enjoy a cocktail or wine. Nice: hotel provided a USB with decent selection of movies to be able to use on the TV. We used it nightly after sundown. It was free with 100RM deposit. This amenity was much appreciated

Paradise
Our stay here was beautiful and comfortable. The facilities were great and there was a private beach (not the swimming beach, that is accessed over some stairs) but it has chairs and hammocks. The restaurant was super over priced, there are really good restaurants down the beach. The staff was helpful but didn't speak very good English. The onsite dive center was very convenient.

Séjour décevant.
Hotel bien situé sur l'île avec des extérieurs très jolis. Mais accueil catastrophique et malhonnête: alors que l'hotel est vide à 90% en ce début de saison, on nous propose le bungalow le plus mal situé et dans un mauvais état, dans le but de nous vendre un surclassement par la suite. Nous prendrons le 4eme présenté mais avec un ménage express, celui-ci étant très sale... Hotel à déconseiller surtout pour le prix assez cher, il y a surement mieux sur l'île.

Le personnel est très adorable et accueillant. La plage est merveilleuse. La nourriture est bonne. La chambre que j’ai eu est un peu vieille. Ils ont des chambres plus luxueuses mais plus dispendieuse. Pour nous, ceci nous convenait puisqu’on passait peu de temps dans la chambre.
