this was a stop-over for me while on my way to the perhentian islands. My plane landed in kuala terrenganau and luckily we had booked this place in advance (minimum 1 month)so even though it was for only one night, it was great. My girlfriend and I easily found a taxi and it was only about 15 min. away from the airport (around 25rm=8 usd.) so pretty cheap Id say. then the hotel gave us two options to go to the jetty in kuala bessut, take the bus cheaper of course ,or taxi. we opted on the taxi because time was an issue, so if your gonna take a taxi to the bessut jetty from kuala terrenganau expect to pay round 120rm, which still is a great price for an air con 1.5 hour long taxi ride right to the pier. anyway, the hotel breakfast was great, and they have a nice little eating place next door, and around the back right near the beach. we were very pleased with our stay, if we go to perhentian island again we'll fly into kota baru, but for any reason we find ourselves in kuala terrenganau, we will be staying at the contenintal for sure! good rooms too, clean, and a great view of the south china sea, were able to watch a beautiful sun-rise, and the pool is quite nice too, located on the third floor.enjoy your stay!
