From the moment we arrived, we absolutely loved our stay here. If you're looking for a beautiful, eco-friendly retreat created and run by people who genuinely care about the environment, this is the place for you.
Fred, the owner, built this Ecolodge himself with a clear mission: to be 100% sustainable. Every aspect of the property reflects that goal—everything is green, circular, and thoughtfully designed. The lodge is impressively clean, well-maintained, and full of character.
The rooms are spacious, freshly renovated, and each comes with its own private bathroom. We stayed in the Double Room, which was very comfortable and equipped with a fan—perfect for keeping cool at night.
All the essentials are available on-site, including kayak and snorkeling gear rentals, which made exploring the area super convenient.
One of the absolute highlights of our stay was the food. Sook Peng, Fred’s wife, is not only an incredible cook but also a truly warm and welcoming person. Sharing meals with her was a joy, and her cooking made every meal memorable.
There are also cozy hammocks for relaxing, and the peaceful atmosphere made it easy to unwind.
We couldn't recommend this place more highly—it's a rare gem built with heart and purpose.
Oh, I was almost forgetting, both land and transport are organized by the Fred and Sook Peng and everything went super smooth!
Terima kasih Fred and Sook Peng!

Facilities for the children. The extra large bed. The sunset on the beach.
A refreshing experience staying in a stilted beach house. Looking out is a picturesque scene of vast expand of sky, ocean, sea waves and fishing boats. An interlude that brings peace and reflections.
Beautiful location right on the beach. Is a long way out of town but owner will arrange pick up if required. Room basic but clean. Lots of trips, snorkeling etc in surrounding area. Perfect getaway for a few days
The location is wonderful. The private beach with shaded chairs provides an excellent escape from the crowds. Snorkeling is generally pretty good. Lots of activities available of your interested. The rooms are huge and the hilltop ones have a wonderful view of the ocean from the 2nd floor bedroom balcony. The staff are all very kind and helpful when available. The food is decent.
The breakfast buffet is great. The poolside service is fantastic. Our children loved the mini splash zone/ water slides and access to the private beach.
I love that the balcony of my room looking straight to the ocean! It's a very tranquil place with no commercial tourism activities. A very pleasant place to relax. I could see the livelihood of locals and kids playing on the beach. The owner contacted me before my check in date to guide the way. It is recommended to take the longer route to avoid the off-road way that is not suitable for small cars.
We had a ground floor unit which is easily accessible to the pool and seaside. Spacious and Comfortable unit. A sunset walk along the beach was rewarding.
Nice hotel and facilities even though a bit outdated, the kids loved the swimming pool and water slides. Very good breakfast buffet. Wonderful sunset view from the beach and sunset bar. It's very convenient to arrange boat trip to the islands of Tunku Abdul Rahman park with packed lunch from the hotel.
Lots of activities, 3 resorts in one place, great breakfast buffet, helpful and friendly staffs, private beach, great location and ocean view.
