From here, you could arrange a half-day exploration of Gem Island Resort. Set amidst natural surroundings of a vast rainforest, about 15 minutes' drive from Kuala Terengganu Sultan Mahmud Airport and 25 minutes from Kuala Terengganu city centre, the beach resort is situated near a fishing village. Thus, guests have the opportunity to watch fishermen land their catch every morning and evening. The beach resort has 78 rooms including superior, deluxe, junior suites and executive suites. Family rooms are also available.
Prices quoted are nett.
Bicycles are available at the resort. Jungle trekking can be arranged to the nearby mountain. The mountain offers a good view of the surrounding areas and the sea. Taking the East-West highway to Kota Baru before reaching Kuala Terengganu is a pleasant journey. However, it is quite tiring and it is a good idea to pass the night in Kota Baru.
