Complete Paradise! An amazing hotel with amazing service and food

The Taaras is possibly the most beautiful resort you could stay at. This is reflected not just by the property and the location but also by the people and the food. It's a 5* with an experience. The hotel really is beautiful, the sand is like silk and the water is warm and clear. Rooms: 5/5 - We had a garden suite sea view and it was beautiful. I beach cabin with all the amenities. It's nothing flashy inside, but it's a beach cabin, what more can you expect?! The bed was comfortable, the rooms were spacious, it was clean and had AC. It was very comfortable. Service 5/5 - The service reflected the status of the hotel. Mei looked after every need and requirement we had, including sourcing baby wipes on the island when we ran out. She kept us up to date on activities on the island and ensured our daughter was catered for. Including a surprise birthday arrival cake. Everyone from Eddie, who helped us with the luggage, to the gents at the beach bar who made amazing cocktails, Saffiyah who always served us and always came to say hello. Big shout out to Chef Affendi who catered amazingly for our daughter who is 1yr old and cannot have salt and sugar. He went out of his way to make her meals and ensure she was fed on time! We can't thank you enough for this. Food/Drinks: 5/5. Possibly some of the best chicken curry ive had with our roti canai ANYWHERE! The food at breakfast was amazing and so was lunch and dinner. Everything was flavoursome and fresh.The cocktails at the beach hut were also awesome. Amenities: 5/5 The one thing they lacked which all other hotels provided was a bottle steriliser; however, Chef Affendi did sterilise our bottles every day using their microwave so there was no issue. The hotel caters for everything and everyone. We played tennis, pool, table tennis, carom, we swam with turtles, our daughter got to release baby turtles, we visited the SPA, we bought ice creams and the list goes on…

Property really needs lot of update before you call yourself a 5 star property!!!!

The location and nature beauty surrounds this property which I will say is god’s gift. The sea was beautiful and most clear.

Trip to the turtles

This is the only hotel in the bay. We came at the end of March which is considered a low season, but the weather was really nice! Clear water, plankton doesn't bite. It is easy to swim on a kayak and snorkel with the turtles. Very calm. Very friendly staff. Hamdan from reception is very attentive ❤️

Beautiful clear beach, perfect for couples or families!

The beach was crystal clear. At one point we found ourselves completely alone, it felt wonderfully private! The Cliff Bay room was great, featuring a spacious bathroom, a large living area, and a comfortably sized bedroom. The view from the room was amazing. There’s a shortcut to the beach but its quite a long flight of steps so we opted to take the buggy to the main lobby/ beach instead each time. We joined the complimentary 1hour snorkeling trip, just a short boat ride from the resort. It was my 4.5-year-old boy’s 1st snorkeling experience so the location and duration were perfect. We even got to see a few big turtles swimming right around us! The food served at The Cove was quite delicious. We love relaxing there in the early evening, enjoying a leisurely dinner and the gentle sea breeze while watching our toddler run around, play in the sand by the beach. The hotel staffs were extremely helpful and friendly too. We couldn't wait to be back!

Beautiful location but very poor hotel for the money

The location was gorgeous although sadly the coral on Redang is very stressed/bleached currently. Staff very friendly…

Beautiful beach and wonderful staff. Booked the cliff sea view room which had magnificent views. Overall had an amazing time at the Taaras resort. Snorkelling with the turtles was incredible and complimentary Yoga session with Bruce was a great way to relax.
