My family had a very comfortable stay. They loved the place. The house is as per the picture. Thankfully the owner provided us with a video direction to the guesthouse as the Google maps is not accurate.

I have been travelling for 3 years and this place was exceptional and probably the nicest place I’ve stayed. The rooms and whole place is beautifully decorated and the hotel sits amongst a spa. They also have a restaurant attached. The place is family run and you could really tell how much thought and effort everyone put into making the place what it is! Everything is perfect. Although it is located a bit further out the city don’t let it put you off because you feel like you are in paradise inside. I got a massage done, which included a sit down with the doctor to tailor the massage to my health and wellbeing :) Staff are amazing and really kind too. A big thank you to all the staff for making it an amazing stay and especially to Fara for all your help :)

The hospitality is super good. Uncle David and the staff are very friendly. It is fun to hang out at the balcony, chit chatting with them after meals, listening to stories from Uncle David. The longhouse Homestay is basic but charming, it has everything you need. Transport from and to airport, looking for activities to do, buying rice and pineapple and salt, they would help you with your request. Amazing and personalized services. People from small town who has the biggest heart!

Great location and super comfy, I felt safe and at home. Semporna isn’t the most charming of towns, but Amazing Rooms played a big part in making my visit to Semporna amazing! I hope to be back.

Charming and well equipped. Well operated and good communication with the owners. Good view of the road leading to Mesilou and well enough away from Kundasang town to be quiet. Good experience having hot coffee at the balcony watching the sun rise over the mountain range.

A very charming place. The host is delightful. Swift and efficient check-in, despite its remote location. There's a small parking area, but be sure to make a reservation in advance

It was a great pleasure to stay at Merdeka Guest House! Firstly, the host - he is super helpful, friendly, we spent great time together, he recommended fantastic local spots, made a little foody surprise in the mornings, even helped us find good cheap durian to try! Secondly, the room - it's small but clean and you have everything you need. It was one of our best stays in Malaysia.

Jane and Sam are warm, engaging and considerate hosts who'll do their very best to ensure that you enjoy your stay with them and in Kuching! The breakfast is great (for a guesthouse) with oats, fruits, fried noodles/rice, eggs and spreads, the guesthouse charming and cosy (albeit a bit rundown), and only 15min walk from the waterfront. It's also a great place to meet other travellers, if you're so inclined:)
