Overall the resort meets expectations, but can be improved when it comes to additional offers given the steep price of the rooms.

All rooms are wooden houses built on the same mountain, with a total of 16 rooms, very private, no children making noise. Help to clean the room 3 times a day, the room layout is very delicate, all using natural elements, the service is also very good. The Malay restaurant and the Italian restaurant are very delicious, highly recommended, much more cost-effective than Semporna. The sea water is super transparent, with all kinds of beautiful fish, and the hotel can snorkel.

Japamala is a resort that I love so much that I am afraid to write a review for fear that more people will know about it and I won't be able to book it. Distinctive style design, private beach, wooden villas (large and comfortable enough), essential oil spa, barbecue, snorkeling; great breakfast; I have to mention that the staff from top to bottom are very friendly and polite. I came here with my friends for three days and two nights, and I will bring my family back. I recommend staying for 4-6 days to really enjoy the slow life.

The hotel is on a separate beach. Only the hotel's guests can enter the entire beach. The staff are also very enthusiastic. Every time they see you, they will greet you enthusiastically. The hotel's free breakfast is very rich and delicious. It's a pity that the weather was bad and we didn't go snorkeling. But when we left, we saw a lot of fish at the hotel's pier. It was very suitable for snorkeling. The captain was also very enthusiastic. There are trees behind the hotel, and there are a lot of small ants.

The hotel is very beautiful. The room is incredible. The food at the hotel is delicious. The sea is magnificent (especially for snorkeling). Since we were staying at another hotel, a boat picked us up from the Tekaka pier. Thank you very much to the hotel. I liked everything very much.

Because it was the off-season, there were only two couples in the entire resort, so we were given an annual fee to upgrade our room to a sea view room with a great view! ! ! Due to the weather, we did not go snorkeling and only went out to sea to fish. Although we caught fish, the hotel made a mistake. The fish served for dinner was not the fish we caught ourselves! I have to say, the chef’s cooking skills are really good~

Great location, excellent staff, brilliant food. We had a Seaview sarang, it was spacious and cleaned daily to a high standard. The prices for food and beverages was very reasonable for a resort of this quality. Beach was long, sandy and clean of rubbish. Free use of snorkeling equipment, shuttle transfer from the main ferry terminal to the hotel only took 10 minutes

We are glad to hear you enjoyed you stay and the attention the team takes to ensure a high standard of service is provided. After the long ferry journey from the mainland to Tioman, we do our very best to ensure the last leg of the journey from Genting to Japamala is as quick and smooth as possible. Thank you for choosing to stay with us for your holiday and we look forward to welcoming you back to Japamala.

Japamala Resort is a wonderful place to stay and we cannot recommend it highly enough. What makes it particularly special are the team here who do everything they can to make you feel at home and totally relaxed. Our special thanks go to Shuvo for always being so friendly and taking such excellent care of us at breakfast time and at afternoon tea. We really enjoyed talking with you every day and it started our day on a lovely, warm note. A big thank you too to Ricky for your great service and smiles at dinner and sundowners. Thank you also to Ryan and John for looking after us so well and for the wonderful welcome by the whole team when we arrived. Everyone at Japamala is really excellent and we cannot praise them enough. Thank you too to the housekeeping team for making our beautiful room so clean and for all the special touches such as the lemongrass scent, candles and welcome notes left by the housekeeping service. It is these very personal gestures that make a stay at Japamala so memorable. We had one of the treetop rooms and it was such a great position looking out into the trees and seeing all of the wildlife. We must also commend the food which was beautifully prepared, delicious and plentiful. We also very much appreciated our speedboat transfer from Genting! All in all, a fabulous place to stay which we are very sad to leave.
