Yes, you will live in a tree house in a nature park and have a beautiful view of the beach. The only thing is that you should be prepared for the fact that everything is older than it looks in the photo. Also, local monkeys will come to visit you, and a squirrel was even able to sneak into the house and steal a croissant. We also saw a monitor lizard near the cafe. You are unlikely to get something like this anywhere else. Despite the simplicity and slight wear and tear (the houses could use some renovation), the rooms have a shower, refrigerator and air conditioning, which makes your stay quite comfortable. You must understand that this is not a luxury resort and the main thing here is nature. The forest trails and beach here are truly wonderful. There is always a rental station for sups and kayaks on the beach. The rooms are cleaned daily and the staff is always ready to help you to make your stay here generally comfortable and I'm reading this interesting experiment. Breakfast is included in the stay - it is very simple, but acceptable. You can have lunch and dinner at the neighboring resort or go to the neighboring village of Kampung Buntal, where there are several excellent local restaurants. Calling a taxi is very easy. It’s even better to leave for Kuching in the evening and arrive at night to go to your house through the night forest. This was definitely the most unusual accommodation experience during my travels, and there was a lot that could have been better here, but that’s not really something to criticize. I recommend this hotel to those who want something new.

I loved the fact that we were surrounded by trees. We were visited by a family of silver leaf monkeys in the morning. The design of the treehouse is really cool and it overlooks the ocean. We were surrounded by the sound of waves and it was really peaceful. They also provided an espresso machine and espresso capsules., a real treat. The spread of the buffet breakfast was decent but do go early because they don't necessarily replace all the food like for like. We saw pineapples in the morning but decided to go for a walk on the beach first and they replaced it with honeydew. There was also very little broccoli and carrot left by the time we went and it took about half an hour before a new batch was brought out.

The water supply was erratic. We sometimes found ourselves without water but the flow would return in about 30 minutes. I'm not sure why this was the case. This place has seen better days though. Being by the ocean has worn it down pretty badly.

It's a treehouse with beach view! Very calming waves and insect calls at night. I like that the pillow wasn't too high for me too, and a mini fridge was provided.

The floor was a bit sandy, and the chairs in the room and outside the balcony could be replaced.

The resort is lovely, you are literally in the rainforest which is very relaxing & we loved spotting the wild monkeys! There are plenty of things to do around the area. We went on a few boat trips provided by the resort and they were great, we saw dolphins, firefly’s, crocodiles and monkeys🐒 The staff were so helpful and friendly & everything was clean. I’d defo stay here again.

We stayed in a villa and the villa itself was pretty tired and needs a lick of paint. It was just a bed for the night really, the main attraction here is being in the rainforest. If you want a bit of luxury it’s not the place.

The treehouses are great! The location is perfect, just on the edge of the rainforrest and the beach. The view is amazing. The accomodation is not luxury but beds are good, AC and fan in the room, Decent bathroom and a Nice balcony with view. The resort itself is very Nice. It’s in the jungle so a good chance to see some animals right in the resort. We saw monkeys in the way from the room to the restaurant. The restaurant is very good, local food and western food. Good view for sunsets aswell. The beach is Nice and you can rent kayaks, paddleboards etc. Keep in mind that locals visit the beach and resort for a day trip. The staff is amazing and will help you with everything. Plenty to do around and in the resort especially the different hikes and even a night walk.

The AC in our first and Second room didn’t work but the staff got on it right away to fix is.

The perfect location to relax in (and with) nature, as it’s basically right outside your window! I saw proboscis monkeys from my balcony and many other animals which was so great. There’s also many great hiking routes free of charge from the resort where you’ll be able to see the most beautiful nature and beach ever. The whole resort is just awesome, I really loved the place and all it has to offer. Great staff which is very helpful as well. The treehouses are wonderful to stay in and so luxurious even in the middle of a jungle. Not even a single mosquito in my room at night and I had the best sleep in ages.

Nothing, everything is extremely well functioning here which is honestly rare to find. Would definitely want to come back to this place one day.

The location is unsurpassed if you want to stay in the jungle and on the coast. The treehouses are high above the ground - about 30 steps - but are surrounded by forest with views through the trees of the sea. the restaurant has a simple but delicious menu. walks are well marked. I saw proboscis monkeys three times in the space of two days. It is a short walk to the Sarawak Cultural centre, a food court and 7-11. if you like unique places in nature I would highly recommend.

nothing. however - if you want wifi it is available in the restaurant and reception but not accommodation.

I loved my stay in the treehouse, I was genuinely sad to leave! All the monkeys swinging in front of my balcony, the beach views, jungle walks nearby. Even though I had terrible weather I still enjoyed every second of my 4 days here, so that's saying something! It's so calming to hear the sea all night, and the little Nespresso machine gave me the feeling of being in my own home :) the Feeding Tree restaurant serves nice food and all the staff are so friendly. Would highly recommend!!

Yes, everything could have done with a lick of paint and was a tiny bit worse for wear. But honestly the ambience was so great that could easily be overlooked

This is the best place to stay at this area to enjoy true staying inside the jungles. We saw proboscis monkeys just next to the reception, but there are many other animals around,from huge butterflies to small squirrels. There are two perfect beaches and jungle pool, we were almost alone during swimming and sunbathing. The cabin was perfect, with amazing seaview and all basic amenities. The restaurant starts working from early morning which is good for further planning of the day, and the food is delicious 😋! Try shakshuka and roti for your breakfast, 200% worth it. However the mostly we appreciate friendly atmosphere and helpful staff, we felt like at home. Thanks a lot, we will come back!

We stayed only two nights, it's not enough to explore this place properly.

We loved the treehouses in the rainforest. The staff in the Cafe were wonderful, very friendly, and very accommodating. It is a beautiful setting and the jungle pool is great. loved seeing the different monkeys.

Not having wifi in the rooms and only in the cafe and reception was very inconvenient. We do not live in Malaysia and did not have roaming. trying to make plans for anything via the internet was not easy. Strange that no alcohol was available anywhere in the resort to purchase.
