Wonderful home stay experience. Great time to bond with friends and family.

It was my 3rd visit to Rest. Pause. Rainforest Retreat. It was still as fantastic an experience as the first time I visited. The host, Dorena managed all communication really well. The home still had a homey, quaint feeling to it. Though old, the home was pleasantly clean. You can tell that there are efforts to continue refurbishing the place in little ways, and that the place is cleaned where possible. The BBQ fire was set up for us. There was Astro with an almost complete selection of channels (so I could cry over Manchester United losing to Crystal Palace). The beds were comfy and the blankets were thick (I've stayed in places with thin blankets that barely provided any cover). It rained the afternoon we stayed, so if you opened the window at night, it would have been quite cooling, no air cond necessary. Breakfast was pleasant, we had nasi lemak. The rice was fragrant and loved by my colleagues. Personally, was more a fan of the sambal which others found a tad bit spicy.

The crickets were loud (but what do you expect from the forest). The access to the stream can be quite a challenge for those with mobility issues as the stairs are a little steep (no issues for healthy adults). Some reviews have mentioned insects around the forest area, but we encountered none in the home itself (only when we ventured up the stream). So far none of us have had bites (surprising considering our vicinity to the forest). Overall, nothing to complain about. It's a homestay - so one can't expect a concierge at beck and call.

Very poor

Overpriced stay. Actual place do not look like photos shown on website

1. The view 2. The stream and pond nearby 3. Excellent service by owner and housekeepers

1. Cleanliness really need to be reviewed. Kitchen drawers, cutleries, toilets and many spots in the house were filthy 2. Condition of the toilets is terrible, need maintenance 3. Very overpriced for a run down Airbnb like this: Actual place do NOT look like photos shown on Booking.com. 4. Breakfast needs improvement. Nasi lemak was still not too bad. The English breakfast served was horrible.

A lovely retreat away from the city

The house was clean and well maintained, with a well equipped kitchen. We had hotpot on the first night and bbq on the second night, just bring your own food, equipments are fully provided. The housekeepers were very friendly and helpful. The breakfast prepared was hearty and delicious. They helped our family enjoy some fishing in the pond behind the house and even cooked the fishes we managed to catch! A very fun experience overall. Will definitely return if we visit janda baik again.

Peaceful retreat with lots of greenery

The place is so peaceful. Just amazing to be surrounded by greenery. Host was responsive and attentive throughout our stay. Bawi was also easily accessible in case we needed anything. The pictures don't do the place justice.

Nothing.
