Ombak Dive Resort Perhentian Island

Ubicación perfecta, justo en la playa para ver la puesta de sol. Todo lo que necesitas está cerca y Long Beach a 10 minutos a pie de Ombak. Cama cómoda y aire acondicionado todo el día. Personal amable y servicial siempre disponible. Excursión de snorkel de día completo de primera clase reservada en recepción. Nuestro capitán Mat, un isleño local, hizo el día, servicial con el equipo y en el agua se aseguró de que viéramos todo, corales, tortugas, nemos y tiburones. No puedo recomendar a Mat lo suficiente, gracias ☺️.

July 2022 : Rooms and bathrooms are clean, a bit dated BUT clean. Local food was great, breakfast was below average, food generally gets very expensive, and sadly a handful of restaurant/kitchen staff could be the reason why the rating is low. At times, the food can really take a long time to be served even when the restaurant is barely occupied. The rest of the staff (non-restaurant) are extremely friendly and helpful. Housekeeping, front desk, water activity team were nothing but great. They truly are meant for hospitality. July 2023 : Returned as a guest again. Again, I’m happy with the front desk service and state of the room. Breakfast continued to be below average. Local lunch and dinner was bad. Really bad, which is so disappointing. Last year’s local food was so good! Not sure if they hired a new chef? Enjoyed snorkeling both visits. Well arranged, it was just a really fun experience. May return in 2024, just for the room and snorkeling. Will opt to eat at the nearby local eateries. Overall, the staff are great just don’t be surprised to bump into 1 - 2 not so friendly ones.

Room average, not much facilities, good and friendly reception but the ombak cafe is terrible. The staff attitude is terrible and rude. Don’t take the package basically it is not buffet (multiple choice), it just simple rice, chicken, Vege and eggs n most important, make sure u go early, else u will need to eat those left over. If u ask any refill, they will just walk away like non of their business, n when u try to to order ala carte menu, they will tell u they r very busy and everything also don’t have. Burger out of stock, pizza out of stock.. When u continue follow up then what am I suppose to eat, they will just fried a noodles and tell u.. go n eat the refill with the sarcastic face and keep nagging behind (hey, I understand ur language between). Seriously? That’s the attitude? Maybe u r the only proper cafe on the beach but we pay for the foods not ask for free. Hope u improve ur service. Just go if u love to starve urself and enjoy the bad attitude cafe staff in Ombak. Worst island trip ever in my life. 👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼

Cons- 1.Hotel’s cafe - Cafe food is a bit expensive compared to the restaurants at long beach. We took their meals package and they Provided ala carte menu due to less than 15 customers. Their ala carte menu are repeatable for lunch and dinner for both days. Not much choices as well. 2. The complimentary drinks are same with the ala carte menu. 3.Electricity - still using generators. Cut off time are 10am, 4pm and 8pm. 4.Room - We booked two rooms and both rooms are superb nearby to the generators. Noisy and there are ants in the room. 5. No towel and mineral provided during snorkelling. 6.Wifi connection is pretty poor. The line was bad especially in the room. The wifi was faster at the cafe Pros- 1. Nearby jetty 2. Receptionists were friendly and well versed in English but keep MIA 3. Recommended Snorkelling trip with Zul and Shafiq. Humour and nice. It was fun with the 5 points expenditure. Able to see sharks, turtles and nemo. 4. Less than 10mins walk to long beach
