Tuna Bay Island Resort

Pulau Perhentian


These bungalows occupy a lovely stretch of palm-shaded white sand, with more bungalows set in the pretty gardens or facing the jungle behind. Swim on a vibrant coral reef just offshore, or relax in the cocktail bar with a Long Island iced tea or cappuccino.

For dinner, Tuna Bay serves seafood BBQs featuring prawn, squid, barracuda and snapper, plus a large range of western and Asian dishes as well as cocktails, beer and wine.
