Panorama Chalet

Pulau Perhentian


A favourite with divers and snorkellers, Panorama is set back a short way from the sand in party central, Long Beach. Rooms range from fan-cooled doubles to air-conditioned chalets. The family room has two queen-sized beds, near-wraparound windows and a balcony. Electricity is available from noon to 4pm and from 6.30pm to 7.30am.

Panorama’s restaurant was closed for renovation at the time of research but had a good reputation. There are also packages with Panorama Divers, with their clients getting hefty discounts on all rooms (dorm for free).
