It was a good experience. The hotel was comfortable and the owners and receiptionist is friendly. The resort was strategic as it is near to the beach and to have lunch and dinner

We had a great time staying at Vikri Beach Resort. Muths, Vjay and his wife were outstanding. It felt like being with family. East Indian food was amazing and the beach is right across the street. We loved to watch the monkeys and feeding the hornbills. Walking down town to the restaurants and food stalls was safe and short.

Budget hotel with great location!
Budget location very close to Pasir Bogak and right across from the beach. Very friendly owner, he helped arrange a motorbike and offered suggestions of places to eat etc. 10 min drive from Teluk Nipah beach which is busier and more touristy.

Memuaskan
Family room besar, toilet besar, hall besar, ada extra tilam, 4 towel, 4 berus gigi, 4 gelas tp 2 set je coffee and tea walaubagaimanapun boleh mintak extra. Tv limited channel, jam 1pg- 8am hanya ada radio saja. Lokasi 50m dr pantai pasir bagok, melintas jalan saja tp air pantai agak kotor, 10min berjalan kaki ke tempat makan, berjauhan dengan bandar dan coral beach, jika sewa motor lebih baik Overall baik, kee it up kerana masih mengekalkan sifat semula jadi...hati2 ya monyet ada di persekitaran dan malam2 ada babi hutan 😋

It was good, but with some caveats: 1. No TV channels and no TV remote. 2. No coffee or tea in the room - but kettle was there! People were very nice and went out of their way to cook for us even though we were only two of us. If they fix the TV and the coffee, it is definitely a great bargain.

Friendly hotel villas excellent location.
Villas, on beach side of Island, of varying size situated in a shady enclave adjoining the forests.Towels are supplied. Air conditioning good, beds a little soft, service of rooms on request. Sandy beach across the road. A quiet location except Saturday night when motor cyclists occasionally break the silence racing their bikes. The Villas are 3km from the jetty and town. Beach restaurants 10 min walk. Breakfast at 15 RMB is a mix of continental, Indian and Malaysian, Motor bikes 125cc can be hired,may be picked up at jetty , contact hotel.Roads in good condition for bikes. The beach side of the Island is predominately Malay and many excellent food outlets at local prices. The Fishing industry takes most of the other side of the Island and is mainly Chinese. Plenty of fresh fish available at local restaurants. Ferry from Lumut(mainland) to Pangkor is very regular 14RMB return and takes 30mins. The beach area is the second stop on the ferry not the fishing boat area.No taxis are available at the first stop. Volley ball court, beach soccer, pool table, hand soccer available. The hotel only accepts cash for in house transactions.Enjoy your stay.

Nice scenery comfortable and enviormental friendly
After leaving the jetty we decided to go to the hotel by walking. It wasnt suggest cause the distance from jetty to hotel can be very far, best off is to rent a motorcycle to the hotel. We met someone on the way we got to the hotel who let us rent two motorcyle for our family. At first I am worried that the hotel might not be notified by expedia cause the only information on the email from expedia is the hotel was booked. Don`t worry as the staff of Vikri hotel should be notified and you should be able to check in by 3pm. We only stay for one day but the experience is pleasent. I really like the exterior of the hotel, huge glass window double up as a door really makes you feel relax. The hotel have free wifi(although not as fast as my data), all single terrace (don't need lift or stairs) and have heater, but the only problem is that the toilet flushing cap was gone (still able to flush) and that's all. The enviorment of the hotel is also nice, huge and tall trees and near to the seaside. Few steps to the shore, you can see people swimming and fishing. The sea is opposite to the mainland which is nice as u can enjoy the vast ocean view, but the shore is abit short and the sand is not as fine, so we decided to travel upwards and was able to enjoy the beautiful sunset there. It was a great experience as you can get near to the nature at this hotel I highly suggest people who wants to relax stay here, as most of the hotel was centralized to the city and not as natural as this.

We had been travelling around Asia for around 3 weeks and this was the worst hotel we had stayed in. Upon arrival the owners were trying to get everyone to upgrade their rooms due to their standards rooms being a box. The upgraded room was larger however had the following issues:- Bedsheets had marks on them Bathroom had little ventilation which had caused damp on both the walls and shower curtain, the door also had a hole it it from a previous lock fitting The TV in the room did not work due to having the wrong plug fitting There were ants in the room at all times, 30-40 at any given time The breakfast is additional cost but a decent home cooked breakfast, water is overpriced. The sun loungers on tube beach are available for a price which seemed to change daily depending on the guys mood. The wifi on the resort was also temperamental. The location is good for the beach, other beaches, markets, the port and sightseeing points are easily reachable by taxi (never use the meters but decent price can be negotiated) or by hiring a scooter/moped which the hotel will help you with. Overall we were disappointed with the hotel which needs some upgrade work.

Best place to stay in Pangkor
The stay was for 2 days & 1 night but probably the most relaxing vacation in a long time as the location was such. Facing the beach and the set up was cottage style. The staff were extremely warm,friendly,humble and helpful. Home cooked style food was awesome and the price was amazingly affordable.Will be part of my annual plan moving forward.

Not as Expected
I was shocked when I arrived at the hotel and saw the word "Carlsberg" under the signage. To me as a muslim, its actually not quite confortable staying at the resort. I need to go out looking for food concerninf the halal status, and my family having hard time to have a sleep when the resort playing out loud the music as if in a bar. Then, there was a boars looking for foods within the resort area. Anyway, I think it was my mistake at the first place for not checking the resort. My recommendation for hotel.com and the resort, please put a sign such "None halal drink". It at least can give a hint for those like me.

Nice beach
The resort is facing the Pasir Bogak beach which is just across the street. Do take note that the beach is a public area and its not part of the resort (which I tought it was based on google map) Unfortunately only several rooms are facing the beach and the rest are way at the back of the resort. So choose carefully so that you will not be disappointed.

Unhappy.
The room (standard room) was uncomfortable. The bed was like to broke. The towel huh like 500 times had been washed, water-resistant and coarse. The resort was not muslim friendly because there were pigs in the resort and they served beer. Wi-Fi wasn't covered the whole resort. Facilities bad, no mineral water provided. Beach activities package offered by the resort was very expensive, we had paid RM250 (island hopping, snorkeling and 7 goggles rental for a boat) rather than only RM140 (free goggle rental for a boat) at SF Watersports (turn right when you went out from Vikri).

Don't stay there...
After spending already two nights in Pangkor at different places I checked in at the Vikri Beach Resort (the only night I had pre-booked before coming to the island) and from the first moment on I was more than disappointed. The two nights before I spent at Nipah Beach in two different Resorts for half of the price and much nicer service and much better comfort. My room there was dirty (unhealthy) and thanx God that I brought my own ultralight sleeping bag - I was disgusted by the bed (be careful, you may get scabies). There was dust and mold everywhere, specially the bathroom was really bad. I am quite sure that the air-con needs also a good clean and I did not feel safe at all during the night - was there even any night guardian or any other kind of surveillance? The WiFi did not really work (due to troubles with the router) in the common areas and there was no connection at all in the room. The next place to get food was far away (the restaurant at the Resort was not open). Being honest, for being the only guest at the Resort the service was really terrible and the room was the worst I have ever stayed in during my trips through Malaysia.

Cottages right at the beach and sea view
Resort consists of several double cottages with terrace all arranged in a half circle. In the middle of the place is a common bar/restaurant Pros: beach just across street, scooter rental, good breakfast, offside village (even apes, hornbills often come near the resort) Cons: with street sometimes noisy, offside village but some shops in 15 min walking distance but scooter rental is anyway useful on pangkor ; -)
