Pulau Bidadari (translates to Angel Island) is named after the Bidara trees which grow on the island. Fifteen hectares in size, with three beaches and surrounded by a coral reef, it is a varied and interesting island.
Local government licenses have been acquired to turn waters surrounding the island into a protected area, allowing the reef and marine life to thrive.

A few metres off the beach is protected coral reef, providing spectacular soft and hard corals to snorkellers. Indeed, even sitting on the beach can be an experience in itself, with those who are watching the water often treated to a passing baby shark, one of the many stingrays that come out in the late afternoon or maybe even a passing pod of dolphins or a jumping sailfish for the very lucky. Those who explore the waters around the island either by snorkelling or diving on the house reef will find varied marine life under the surface. Seahorses can be found in shallow water, along with pufferfish, stingrays, snake eels, moray eels, cuttlefish, nudibranch, pipefish and much, much more!

The ten cottages at Angel Island are often described as a hidden gem, and one of the many highlights of a stay. Offering true value, the hand-crafted cottages nestle amongst verdant gardens, giving an amazing sense of private nature. Constructed from the finest materials, the cottages provide all modern facilities, including air conditioning, hot water, free WiFi, private open-air bathrooms, Pod style French Espresso coffee machine, flat-screen tv with a selection of films, mini bar, and safety box.
