The location allows not to walk to town, but taxi is with 10 RM not too high (ask for Sani as taxi driver). Nearby is a turtle station (20 min. walk at the lovely beach) but beware of the next resort (Club Med) as the let you not enter the resort. We aked to have some water for the children but the guards forced us back in a very unpleasent way. We recommend to watch rather the turtles than the frogs.

Cherating beach area was definitely a better choice then the Kuantan stretch. It was more quiet and cleaner and less commercial. If you are looking the bustle of life stay away from Cherating. Don't let the travel books fool you, watching buffaloes carry fish from fishing boats at work in BESERAH just out of Kuantan is a seasonal thing. We drove all the way to find that out. The Charas Caves is a must but be prepared for a hard and treacherous climb if you have young kids, but they loved the 500m walk into the dark cave and listening to all the bats screeching.
Don't forget to check out the waterfalls around the Kuantan area. Kids had a great time swimming there as they were rather small falls and fairly safe.
All in all, you really need to have all your amenities when travelling to the the Malaysian East coast as conveniences are not easy to come by.

The East Coast of Malaysia is BEAUTIFUL.
Impiana is easy to get to - from Kuantan, a taxi costs MR40 and takes 45 minutes, a local bus costs MR3.00 and takes 1.5 hours. The local bus is also convenient for day trips up and down the coast to Kuantan or Kemaman the nearest big towns - excellent if you want to immerse yourself in local culture, shop for food and handicrafts, other beaches, (Cherating Village is quite a fun place to visit just about 10 minutes bus ride from Impiana. It has great local food, beach bars that party into the night in high tourist season, lots of firendly people and an internet cafe)
Impaina organises trips to night markets as well.
