De gastvrijheid van de familie die de homestay runt. Zeer goed ontbijt.

De bereikbaarheid is niet geweldig als je geen auto hebt.

"Soggiorno autentico"

10.0

La struttura è nel mezzo della giungla, quando arrivi trovi un angolo di tranquillità e pace. È un posto davvero molto rilassante per non parlare della famiglia che ti ospita come se fossi figlio loro, in un modo estremamente accogliente e positivo. È stata una vera immersione nella cultura locale e un’esperienza bellissima e autentica. Consigliatissimo🥰

"Amazing place, feels like home away from home"

10.0

The family is extremely nice, they really make you feel at home. We did fishing together in their garden ponds and we went together to the hot springs. They even brought us to the grocery store to get some supplies. A really great place to stay, they're trying to make the best of their life and they are very kind in doing it. The food was great, and they go out of their way to make it nice to stay. Cannot recommend this place enough!

A small improvement point would be the mattress/bed, but it was sufficient, you also have to realize you're staying in the middle of the jungle.

The hospitality of the whole family was exceptional! It's a rustic stay, which is what you're signing up for, but they went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable and VERY well fed. The location is peaceful with beautiful mountain views.

"A hidden gem and wonderful family"

10.0

Lin and family were so welcoming - they were the best hosts! The house and gardens are beautiful and is set in a remote area with views of the mountains. Our room was cosy and clean. We slept so well. There is a nice friendly, safe atmosphere. Lin made us a vegan dinner with short notice and the food was tasty and very good value for money. All facilities available including shower, toilet, and little kitchen area for coffee. We will definitely be recommending this stay to our friends and family in future. Such a little gem.

We liked everything however the house is a little out of the way if you don't have a car. Apparently you can get a Grab to here from Ranau though so all good.

"Superb"

9.0

One of our best stay in Sabah. The overall experience was good. The host family is really friendly, they make you feel as though you’re just staying with friends in the country. Beautiful homestead with fish ponds and mini gardens. Come in August if you want to try all the fruits they can offer from their garden. The room and bed is simple but clean and comfortable.

Water pressure in bathroom could be better

"Incredible place by Malaysian family in beautiful garden !!!"

9.0

Incredible place !!! If you want to spent time with typical family form Borneo, it is a place for you. Very friendly and open Owners, and very beautiful house in the huge garden. All fruit trees around, you have a nice terrace and typical quite simple Malaysian cuisine - we were served late dinner when we arrived and breakfast before leaving. I was also provided with big amount of passion fruits just from the tree, when I said that it was my favourite fruit :) We had nice talks with Owners and the family till very late evening. I recommend choosing this place for everybody, who wants to see beautiful Malaysian village and meet very friendly people. But if you look for luxury, it is not a place for you.
