Give yourself a treat in Perhentian Kecil

It is really worth it to stay at BuBu’s Resort during your Perhentian Relax and amazing holidays. The room was really clean, spacious bathroom (we were 4 adults). The Long Beach is big and you can relax at BuBu’s facilities. The Restaurant Santai we can compare cause we had launch and dinner there everyday. You have Happy hour (free drinks) at 4pm till 6pm. Just experience a massage with them to relax yourself. Everything, the kindness of the personal every day. totally recommended

Expensive room that doesn’t provide more than 2 bottles of water a day despite hot weather and price paid for the room. Our room was on the bend of the building so we felt a little squished as the balcony is smaller than other rooms. Bed was comfortable and wifi very strong and fast. Decent buffet breakfast, but very hectic trying to get tea/coffee/juice as one person doing all those whilst guests waited in small area. Beach lounges good and relaxing - included nightly cocktail and canapé great feature. Close to jetty also good. There are lots of cheaper eating options along the beach a short stroll away. Also, hot tip is to get the speed boats for hire rather than Bubu’s own speed boat and they are much cheaper and a similar boat style. Only limitation is they only leave the island at 8am, 12pm, and 4pm. So, if you need to travel outside these times, might need to pay more for Bubu’s transfer as they have. Little more flexibility on when they leave, but do need minimum numbers. The resort is right on the main beach so there is a good buzz and vibe if that is what you are after. If you want something more relaxing or quiet, perhaps pick your accommodation away from Long Beach.

Too expensive and bad location

It's a very basic hotel and the price too high. Food served in their restaurant is very expensive like 6 spring roll for RM 36. The hotel is right on the beach lined with many other resorts and shacks so the beach is dirty, littered and full of motor boats polluting the water and air. Also it is right there near the jetty. The room was decent to sleep that's all. So overall nothing great. It can be a backpackers kind of accomodation but at a very high price. For any activity or even to use a decent clean beach one would have to pay for the boat and go somewhere else.

Stunning location, great hotel

The resort was superb. The meet and greet by the reception was fantastic, they sorted anything out for you. My only issue is the restaurant was slow and often forgot my order, not sure if this was staffing issue. The location is stunning and being right on the beach, and next to coral for snorkelling means you literally don’t have to leave. Plenty of options for doing trips though and places to eat and chill out along the beach. Will definitively be returning.

This is the most expensive hotel on long Beach hence the service is good. Their restaurant is also the best restaurant on long Beach though pricey. I like the balcony in the room with a bit if sea view. The interior of the room is new since it was just refurbished. Breakfast is really good as compared to other hotels on long Beach. Their pastries are good! Wifi is not really working but we have our own data plan which works well in the room. The layout of the room is really weird, you enter to the toilet. The fridge, wardrobe and kettle are all facing the toilet bowl and shower area. Since I'm travelling with friend, it's really weird cause no one can exit the room if someone is in the toilet. The shower area is not fully fenced up hence there will be splashes to the toilet area. There's no stand to put the shampoo,etc.

sandy and dandy

Nice place, patient and attentive staff, good food at the restaurant. The internet was often a bit difficult to obtain, and some of the day trips ended up being full or cancelled even though we'd booked them well in advance. But otherwise, the place was dandy. I hoe the area isn't developed much more. It's right at capacity now.

Didn't meet my expectations

The staff member we first met at the office before departing on the speed boat was friendly and welcoming. The speed boat transfer to the resort went fine - takes 30 mins. Upon arrival the greeting from the reception staff was nice, they took us through the hotel info, excursions we can book etc etc. The quality of the room wasn't as high as i hoped, the bed wasn't very comfortable so i didn't sleep great while there, the bathroom didn't smell very pleasant and i was disappointed you couldn't close down the bathroom fan window at night to stop the lizards and anything else coming in (had a big lizard in my room one night with about 3 small ones, they are harmless though would have appreciated them not being there). In addition to this there was a small gap under my door - so again, anything could crawl in. The wash towels clearly didn't get washed with any comfort conditioner to soften them as they felt like an exfoliating pads. My patio door didn't lock nor could I shut properly so to feel safe at night my male friend kindly swapped rooms as he's patio door could lock, and in addition the safe didn't work so again i wanted to be able to keep my passport/cash etc safely locked away. At breakfast time, there was noone to greet you or take you to a table and just take you through how the breakfast buffet worked - ie no one served you tea or coffee so i had to go up to the counter and ask for a cup of tea and fruit juice myself which i thought was poor customer service.

Snorkelling at BuBu

The snorkelling was excellent both on the well organised boat trips and also to the left of the hotel beyond the jetty. BuBu itself was comfortable, though the bathroom could have done with a more rigourous clean. The food was very good and ther free cocktail very welcome!

Bad Service

The receptionist is good but honestly I'm very dissappointed with the service. I stayed in family room which costs RM 1000++. We paid extra RM250 for additional one person and they promised to provide pillow and blanket. I did remind them a few times but no extra pillow and blanket provided. Upon checking out, when I complained, the receptionist just said "sorry, we were so busy yesterday" . This is not acceptable, and I would rate value for money 2 out of 10. And plus, no refund given.
