Verdict
Despite its name (barat is Malay for west), The Barat is on Juara, the one village on Tioman’s east coast. Agoda lists 56 rooms. There is a 2,100 sq ft pool with a children’s pool, a rooftop Skybar and the resort’s own dive centre.
Rates are room only. The resort sells meal vouchers: breakfast RM30, lunch RM40, dinner RM50 and a barbecue dinner RM70. It is open all year, with high-season rates from March to September. Check-in is from 2 pm and check-out by 11 am.
The catch is cost and connections. Every ferry lands on the west coast, so add the RM60 return transfer and about 30 minutes each way by road from Tekek. Wi-Fi is free but works only in the lobby and Barat Restaurant.
Good for
Families and divers who want a pool on the east coast, and anyone who wants a resort open all year.
Not for
Anyone who needs Wi-Fi in the room or wants meals in the room rate.
