Our stay at Pangkor Island Resort, unfortunately...
Our stay at Pangkor Island Resort, unfortunately for us, coincided with Malaysian school holidays so the resort was very full and there were many children running around. We had an Ocean View room which had very nice views over the pool to the beach. We were only at the Hotel for 1 hour before monkees ransacked the room- there should be a very strong warning to always keep your balcony door locked at all times. Unfortunately our air conditioner didn't work and we were not able to change rooms for 3 days and we couldn't leave the doors open because of the monkees so the room was unbearably hot. The staff were for the most part courteous and friendly but the drinks were expensive and food not very good except for the breakfasts which were excellent. We hired motorcycles from the resort which were reasonably priced and are the only way to see the island due to its hilly nature. On our travels around the island we discovered Daddy's Cafe, a small restaurant on the beach located in the next bay from Pangkor Island Resort. The food was excellent, the beer was cheap, the service fantastic and the views breathtaking.
