Hey,

You should be good to just show up. We went to kecil in Feb and it was really quiet, every place had rooms although it was off season so not sure if it will be busier now.

If you go to coral beach as opposed to long beach as we did (it's quieter, prettier and less rowdy) then you will get off the jetty at the far left of the beach. The first place you come to is called something like suriaja and is really nice if you can get a good deal. If not there are plently of cheaper beach bungalows dotted around. Some of our friends stayed in them and they were fine.

Check out our blog if you want some tips....

Hello Pamela;

Me and my friends faced a problem when we went to Perhantian Kecil .. we were unable to find a cheap accomendation ,, it was all fully booked. At the end we took a room in the only hotel there and it cost around 45 - 50 USD. Anyway I think that time was an exceptional maybe, if u face any problems with rooms, just take the waster taxi to Perhantian Besar, only near by.

Enjoy your trip 😊 Reply to this

we stayed on the smaller island ., first on the right around the bluff, quiet and good and also diving
but cant remember the name but watch out for the small no seeims stinging jellyfish , no one tells you about them so only snorkel with a t shirt on
but the diving with the sharks is great and safe m they are small and timid Reply to this
