SERGIO LUIGI

Wonderful. We have spent three outstanding days in this resort. Right in the heart of a jungle, deep in the nature, quiet, elegant. The staff is amazing… there is an extreme attention payed to the details. Restaurants are just perfectly blended in this relaxing scenario. The highest volume sound you’ll hear are the waves… Strongly suggested if you want to find peace and be back in harmony with nature. Wellness along the sea.

Liked: Staff & service
We starved because of the bad cuisine
The staff is scarce and it is very difficult to get hold of them. The majority seems poorly trained. The cuisine was simply horrible. The same group used to have a restaurant in Singapore where the same dishes were superb, however in Malaysia they were unforgivingly poorly made

A very beautiful place, a very wonderful place-- so thank you very much. Living as we do on the other side of the world, we looked carefully for somewhere where we could be quiet after a busy week of work in Singapore, longing to walk into the water and see its wonders. Bali was possible, but at a friend's suggestion, we chose Tioman Island. The Japamala Resort satisfied every hope, known and unknown. The sea and sand was all we imagined and needed, our room was creatively curated in a Polynesian style, the food was different and unique (and tasty!), and the staff were exemplary. Mike stands out in his role overseeing the hospitality, characteristically eager and kind, able and willing to do anything needed to make our time a pleasurable one. Everything from the restaurants to the masseuse to the watermen who helped with the snorkeling, we were grateful for each one. Do we recommend? Yes, and yes again! Washington DC

The stay was very special and felt like we were on a movie set. The resort is extremely difficult to get to though and annoyed us that you have to pay for the hotels ten minute speedboat even though there is no other way of getting there. I’d give the stay 8/10

Japamala Resort is a wonderfully place to enjoy sport, relaxation while renewing and regain vigor with the remarkable beauty of the living place. The resort is on an island but the comfort it offers is superb. The amazing staff is always attentive and willing to accommodating a reasonable request. I was particularly pleased by their positive disposition and beautiful smile. I certainly recommend this special place to the ones who appreciate the Planet we are a part of.

Japamala resort heeft een ontzettend mooie ligging, direct aan het strand en de jungle. De accommodatie was ruim, luxe en heel erg schoon. Het personeel is ontzettend vriendelijk en behulpzaam en het eten ter plekke erg lekker. Er is een Italiaans en Aziatisch restaurant op het resort, met erg goede chefs. Gelukkig maar, want het is door de ligging niet gemakkelijk buiten het resort te gaan eten. We hebben al op heel veel plekken in de wereld gereisd, maar nergens zo’n geweldige service en vriendelijke mensen getroffen. Je kon gratis snorkelspullen lenen en vanuit het strand en het paviljoen zo de zee in met redelijk mooi koraal. Op 10 minuten varen ligt Renggis Island waar het koraal erg mooi is. Daar hebben ze schildpadden, haaien en clownfish (Nemo) gezien. Ook op het resort zat veel wildlife: varanen, apen, (vliegende) eekhoorns.

La definizione di "rustico-ecologico-lussuoso" del gestore è assolutamente appropriata. La semplicità è perfettamente coniugata con il comfort. Personale gentile e professionale.
