    We stayed at this beautiful and quiet resort for two nights and absolutely loved it. The surroundings are peaceful, with gorgeous views that made our stay so relaxing. The food was delicious — every meal felt fresh and full of flavor. The staff were warm and friendly, always ready with a smile and happy to help. One of the highlights was waking up early to watch the sunrise — truly breathtaking and worth setting the alarm for! If you’re looking for a calm escape with great service, amazing food, and unforgettable views, this resort is a perfect choice.

    The Kalong Trikora is a charming resort. Clean, neatly decorated and with a bathroom in the open air. It boasts a lush, green and well kept garden and a lovely swimming pool with a view of the sea. There’s a small beach and a long jetty that extends out into the water. The staff are exceptionally friendly and helpful, and the cuisine is absolutely fantastic. We enjoyed everything from satay, rendang, curry to grilled octopus fresh off the barbecue. Even breakfast was a delight with fresh fruits, scrambled eggs, pandan pancakes and nasi goreng. We had a wonderful time here and can wholeheartedly recommend it to everyone! Especially those who want to escape mass tourism.

    The stay at the Kelong Trikora Resort was absolutely amazing, it couldn't have been any better. The service by the hotel staff exceeded our expectations by far! From timely pick-up to drop-off at the ferry terminal by hotel drivers to individual day trips with various island activities they helped a lot to enjoy our stay as much as possible. Private massage at the beach side, a very cozy restaurant with individual recommendations for breakfast, lunch and dinner, a perfectly clean pool were perfect for a relaxing couple of days. The availability and responsiveness of the hotel staff was extraordinary!

    Nothing really.

    We had an excellent stay! Very nice and helpful staff (including the owners) who did everything they could to make our stay as pleasant as possible. The breakfast was very extensive and they prepared what we wanted. We also had lunch and dinner there which were both very tasty. It is a small and friendly resort with a lovely swimming pool. The fire fly tour is highly recommended.

    Such warm hospitality cannot be overstated. The staff were consistently welcoming and helpful, in particular to dietry needs, and all food was prepared with care and attention to detail. The compact compound, elegantly designed, felt secure and homely. An impossibly green turf carpeted the area and generous planting ensured interest and privacy. The villas are simple but adequate and comfortable - well maintained.

    The tides are quite strong and we didn't swim in the sea. Therefore, the sea is not really made for swimming, but the pool is great.

    Erix and Linda were great hosts, very welcoming and caring. We have been the only guests for most of our stay and enjoyed the calmness. The breakfast was very good, we were able to choose from a big variety of options. You can also book tours/message etc. (which we didn't do. The resort is a bit isolated, but very well maintained and beautiful. The driver was very friendly and driving carefully, we can only recommend the pick-up and drop-off. If you don't want to stay in one of the big resort areas, this is the perfect choice. (if possible try to get the beachfront house)

    We spent 6 days at the Kelong Trekora Resort and it was the most beautiful on the whole island. The green garden, the pool and the houses were simply fantastic 😊. Linda and Erix were always there for us and fulfilled all our wishes. Erix served ginger tea and wonderful food and Linda organized a scooter for us without any complications. We felt completely at home and would like to say a big thank you to Linda and Erix 🙏.

    I had a wonderful stay at this hotel and was very impressed with the hospitality of the staff, especially Linda and Erix. They were very friendly and helpful, and made me feel like I was at home. The hotel is very child-friendly, and my kids loved playing in the pool and on the beach. The staff was always happy to help with anything we needed, and they made sure that we had a great time. The facilities are well-maintained and the rooms are very comfortable. I enjoyed chilling in the room opening the window and feeling gentle sea breeze. I also had the opportunity to go on the firefly tour and the ATV tour, which were both amazing. I would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a relaxing vacation. I am already planning my next trip back, and I can't wait to try the snorkeling that Linda recommended.

    The beach is small, and the water quality could be better, likely due to the monsoon season and its proximity to a river.

    The room is very clean. Outdoor shower is exceptionally relaxing. I enjoy sunrise just outside my room. View is very calming. Eric and Linda were really exceptional in their service. I am vegetarian and Eric discussed with me on how they can prepare my meals. They custom cooked vegan sambal for me. Their spring rolls are really good too! On the last day, the boss's brother even bought vegetarian food for me, from another town. This is 5 star service without the 5 star price. For those of you who are solo travelers, this is a safe and rejuvenating place to be. This is also a great place for a family gathering or birthday celebration!

    One small criticism is the prices in the restaurant. Compared to other restaurants nearby, it is honestly quite expensive. But the food is still worth it because it is fantastic.

    The resort is stunning! It really does feel like a piece of paradise. I received such a warm welcome, the staff are so lovely, they are very friendly and so helpful. And I have to highlight the breakfast, which was heavenly and served by one of the most attentive and friendly staff I have ever experienced in a hotel. I highly recommend staying here, you will love the relaxation.

    I had the pleasure of staying at this charming hotel, booking my room around 7 PM for arrival on the same day. Despite the late hour and the fact that I was the only guest in the entire hotel, I was warmly welcomed by Raju, who went out of his way to ensure I felt at home.The room itself exceeded my expectations. It was impeccably clean, and I was particularly impressed by the unique and thoughtful design of the bathroom, which added a touch of elegance to the space. The attention to detail in the room’s decor made it a cozy and inviting retreat after a long day of travel.The hotel staff deserves special mention for their exceptional friendliness and hospitality. From the moment I arrived until the moment I left, I felt genuinely cared for, which made my stay even more enjoyable.Overall, my experience at this hotel was delightful. It’s clear that the team takes great pride in creating a welcoming and comfortable environment for their guests. I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a memorable stay.

    The only improvement I could suggest would be to have a few more sitting areas in the garden as sun beds are limited - it would have been nice to have chairs on our little patio area by the bungalow for example.

    We were very lucky to have the resort to ourselves for the two nights we were there so we had the full attention of the staff whenever we needed it - they were exceptionally friendly and helpful, particularly Eric and Linda. The rooms are very clean and comfortable, the pool is beautifully kept and the choice of food in the restaurant was very good. Linda also organised a local mangrove tour for us which was very interesting.

    Eric and Linda were exceptionally friendly! There are 10 rooms in the resort and I was the only guest who stayed during my 3d2n stay! Eric even offered to drive me out at night to the nearby area to get some food that are unavailable in their resort. The activities and massages that they offered were affordable too. I even managed to have a jog at that long 'jetty/bridge' too (a very rare opportunity). A perfect place to have my me-time. I strongly recommend this place for all!
