Among the many popular hotels on Heatwave Island, the Taras Beach Spa Resort is an absolute must-visit. For those who love taking photos, there are plenty of great spots on Taras Beach to capture stunning shots, including beach chairs, beachside pools, mottled coconut groves, bird nests, and swings. Especially with the clear and multi-colored seawater on sunny days, the photos taken here are incredibly beautiful.
This suite we stayed in has a bedroom and a living room, and the area is very large.
The houses are built along the mountain, and the higher up the mountain, the higher the altitude and the better the view.
For a family trip of four, I highly recommend a house that is connected together with a door in the middle that can be opened. It is perfect for a parent-child trip with young children.
The hotel has many free family activities!
Including indoor children's playground, as well as ping pong, billiards, chess, and other tabletop games.
Adults can choose to take a boat out to sea for snorkeling, or experience ATV off-road vehicles on the beach. No matter what age group of friends, everyone can have a great time here and parents can also relax while bringing their children.
Dining at the Taras Beach Spa Resort is definitely a pleasure, whether it's Southeast Asian cuisine or exquisite Western dishes, it's a journey of taste buds that leaves you moved time and time again, adding to the enjoyment of your vacation and leisure time.
Transportation:
Hot Wave Island can be reached by boat or plane. Previously, it was a flight from Kuala Lumpur to Tenggol, followed by a two-and-a-half-hour boat ride to Hot Wave Island.
We chose SKS Airways for our round trip this time. It only takes one hour of flight time from Kuala Lumpur to Redang Island.
And it's encountering the monsoon that causes ships to stop sailing, but airplanes can still operate, which is the advantage.
Airport to hotel, there is a free shuttle service. The journey takes about five minutes.

Redang Island is all about turquoise waters and chill resort vibes 🏝️. If you’re keen on hassle-free beach days with everything sorted for you, Laguna Redang Island Resort is a must-try — spacious rooms, epic balcony views, and friendly staff make it perfect for families or groups looking to unwind. Sunrise from the balcony here is #WORTHIT! 🌅
Top Spot You Can’t Miss:
Laguna Redang Island Resort (Pasir Panjang, Redang Island)
Big, comfy rooms with gorgeous views — ideal for kicking back after a snorkel sesh. Evenings feature live music, and the island’s best snorkeling adventures are organized right at the hotel (just ask the staff, who are super helpful!). Food’s sorted too: the resort’s buffet package gives you a wide spread for every meal — totally convenient if you hate trip planning while on vacation. The only thing lacking is in-room WiFi, so be ready for a digital detox or hang in the lobby for internet.
Practical Redang Hacks:
Getting Around: The resort arranges airport/ferry transfers, so book these when you reserve to skip the stress. Once there, everything you need is walkable.
Eats: Honestly, stick to the resort buffets for convenience. If you want a change, there are simple beach cafes nearby.
Pro Tips: Bring your own beach towel and some snacks — convenience shops are limited. Sunrise is best viewed from the resort balconies, and mornings are quieter for your stroll.
Money: Most payments can be made by card at the resort, but keep some cash for small local stores.
Weather: Best to visit March–September for clear skies and calm seas!
