We stayed here for three nights and upgraded our pool view room to a sea view room, which was totally worth the extra money! The sea view rooms are literally right on the beach! It was an amazing experience to sit outside on the balcony and watch the waves lap at the shore. Unfortunately sunset is on the other side... More

The Perhentian Islands are beautiful, but Arwana is just average. It's main selling point is the swimming pool, which seems to be bigger than all of the other resorts. The downside to this is that the pool can be used by anyone, not just hotel guests, for Rm10. This makes it fairly overcrowded, but still great for a dip on... More

I went there with my family. The boat from kuala besut brought us direct to this resort. For me the resort is just an average...but quite decent place to stay since we cannot expect more around that area. Even so, i love the location...can feel the peacefulness and amazed with the beauty of the island. The rooms are just nice,... More
