Tioman Dive Resort

Pulau Tioman


All the rooms at this comfortable diver-oriented resort have flat-screen TVs, air-con, safes, coffee-makers and other touches worthy of a three-star hotel. The lack of waterfront views is a bit of a downer, but the beach is only steps away. The wi-fi can be patchy. Prices rise a bit on Fridays and Saturdays.

It's also home to B&J Diving, so if you're keen to do a diving course, packages are recommended.
