Generally, the three meals in the hotel are arranged as breakfast 7:00-9:00, lunch 12:00-3:00, and dinner 19:00-20:00. The buffets provided by the hotels on the island are very rich, but they are basically Muslim food-style, with nearly 20 kinds of fried rice, potato stewed chicken, beef, grilled sardines, etc., as well as chicken porridge, tomato soup and fruits. Curry is one of the main condiments in Southeast Asia. Therefore, sweet and spicy curry flavor may appear in dishes, rice, and soups. It is best to take less often or taste first before taking.

The Perhentian Island Resort is the highest-end and most expensive hotel on Perhentian Island. The garden-view cabin costs MYR 250 per day (excluding meals). There are many small hotels along various beaches. They have no air conditioning, no hot water and even no electricity during the day. The conditions are simple but the scenery is equally good and the price is cheap. They are very popular among foreign backpackers.

Precautions:

Redang Island has high temperatures all year round, so just wear light and breathable clothing, and sunscreen with a high SPF is a must.
