"we totally loved our stay at Pelangi Beach Resort. Our room was great with a sea view, we stayed near the beach. Breakfast options were good, staff was all friendly and helpful. Not only was the location amazing...on the beach, near Cenang town and not far from the airport. Could be a favorite new place for us to book when we're back in the area."
