Loved our villa and the employees of the resort. During day time it was full of tourists but they will be gone by noon so it's more calm and less smokers!!
We had our breakfast and dinner at Arang restaurant, and attentive staff and food was acceptable.
Can easily spot fish and even baby shark nearby the jetty, the sea water is clear and sky blue..but its disappointing that some irresponsible tourists left rubbish by the beach.

Staffs at the island were courteous and helpful. Room was also fine, though there was some problem with the instant water pump but solved by technician.

Lovely place. Alcohol is expensive (38rm) for half a beer. I enjoyed my 2 night stay. It's a busy island with tourists from the mainland till 4pm but they all go home at 4 pm and then you basically have the island to yourself. Just you, a few other guests, and the army of staff.

I liked everything!
Very cozy chalets, feeling like I came to grannie’s house 🏠, amazing customer service from the meeting at the lobby with welcome drink to saying goodbye 👋 , very delicious food in restaurant, breakfast is big, so friendly staff ( girls at reception and girls/guys in restaurant you are super!) and so beautiful nature!
Regretted that haven’t booked 2 nights though. Didn’t have chance to see lizards🦎

One of our best experience. Best part about Manukan Sutera lodge
1) very helpful and friendly staff.
2) i booked 2 rooms. They gave me adjoining room. Super helpful for family with kids.
3) very spacious rooms.
4) sunset viewpoint is a big plus. U get the see the beautiful sunset. But have to walk 1.5km to and another 1.5km back.
5) private beach is helpful for guests so that we don't have to share the public beach with the rest of the visitors. U get to see more fish and corals because fewer tourists to scare away the fish
6) free rental snorkeling equipment.
7) delicious and sumptuous breakfast.
8) easy boat transport. Free overnightt parking at sutera marina club.
Disadvantages
1) no data signal or wifi in the room.have to go to reception for wifi or data signal.
2) dinner is slightly more expensive because there is only 1 restaurant, so no other choices. But food is delicious, even for the fried rice (see pic)

I was a bit reluctant at first to go on an island resort (in case it's bad, you're trapped!)
But this resort made me change my mind on KK!
Their restaurant has amazing food! Probably the best I had during my stay in Malaysia.
Beach was cleaned every morning, and different areas of the island gave the feeling of different beaches.
Great pool as well, only for in house guest, so we were alone all the time.
Some hiking trail (but easy one) to cross the island and see the sunset..
I'll be back for sure !

We enjoyed the great hospitality from the hotel. Some privileges provided to hotel guests really enhanced the exclusiveness of the stay. Although it’s a public island, it didn’t sacrifice our comfort as hotel guests.
Food was good. Portion was big so we ordered few dishes for sharing. I especially enjoyed the breakfast. We get to choose our set meals from the menu and they served the food to the table, unlike buffet breakfast that I have to bring my 2 kids around to choose their food.
It was an enjoyable 3 d 2 n trip. We snorkelled at private beach area and we saw giant corals and a lot of fish. We walked across the island, not much things to do but we enjoyed the scenery and relaxing vibe.

The location was great and the staff super friendly. A part of the beach was reserved for hotel guests and was not overcrowded. The team was trying its best to pick up all plastic in the morning from the beach but unfortunately during the day more was coming. People should take more care themselves.
You can go snorkeling at the beach but to arrive the corals you need to wait for the tide and have to be a good swimmer. Then it’s beautiful out there.
The breakfast was great and a good combination between buffet and menu.
Overall we can recommend it for 2 nights. Don’t forget your mosquito repellent and bites relief.
We saw several Gerrys;) - beautiful creatures.
