What recent reviews say

The place delivers exactly what guests expect from a village homestay: spotless rooms, an unhurried kampung vibe, and an owner who responds fast on WhatsApp. Rooms feel spacious and comfortable, with working AC and good parking; the hilltop setting keeps things quiet and cool. Worth noting: the road is narrow and winding, and you'll need a ride-hailing app to reach restaurants or town, but guests frame this as part of the charm.

Families with children return here, drawn by the peaceful atmosphere and the hiking trails nearby. Some stay four nights and recommend it for groups wanting to unwind rather than party. The price sits lower than typical for the area, possibly due to the access issue. One guest found kelulut honey for sale directly from the owner.

Guests find the studio clean, quiet, and affordable for families visiting the Penang area. Spacious rooms suit those with children; lacking TV and WiFi are minor trade-offs for the village setting and beach proximity.

Well-kept homestay in Bayan Lepas popular with families. Most guests praise cleanliness, friendly owner responsiveness, and proximity to beaches and restaurants. Space is tight and stairs pose a hazard for toddlers.
