Annah Rais Longhouse Homestay

We had an excellent time with Joseph for 2 days and 1 night. Very attentive, he is keen to tell us the history of his village and share his culture with us. …

Jozef is at the top and welcomed us warmly into his longhouse while sharing his history and that of his village. We had a good time among them. Very enriching experience. …

Beware of booking over the phone number or the internet!First of all, the one-star review is not because of the village.The people in the village are extremely friendly. I felt very welcomed and enjoyed it a lot. We stayed there for one night and had amazing food and community. For a tour you can normally just ask around in the village and you will find somebody who will give it to you for an affordable price. I would advise going there over the weekend, since a lot of people leave the village for work during weekdays. It was a very nice experience and I enjoyed it a lot.But please don't book over the phone number or the website. The owner overcharges a lot. For us, he offered a "once in a lifetime" discount, and we got in for 280RM per person. But in the package was only included one night stay, breakfast and dinner. We drove there ourselves and also had to pay for the tours ourselves. I don't understand what he charged 280RM for? Breakfast and dinner are at most combined 50-60RM. It's probably way cheaper. And for the night, you should probably pay ~50RM at most.I felt very scammed by the owner of the website and I have the feeling he takes most of the money as an agency fee and does not give a lot of money to the hosts there. Please just go there and ask around. People will offer you lower prices. You can even go there by Grab and will find somebody who will drive you back to Kuching. When we confronted him about this, the website owner became extremely hostile and threatened to badmouth us to the villagers, so we won't have a nice stay. If you don't want to be scammed, please don't book over this guy.

beautiful experience in this village and the host is a wonderful person! Thanks 🙏

We had a magnificent experience in this village, where we were hosted by Joseph, a truly special, polite and above all professional person. He fulfilled our every request with great attention. We stayed in his village for 3 days and 4 nights, and every moment was memorable. The food, authentically local and delicious, was prepared by an exceptional chef. The proposed activities were interesting, although I expected to see wild animals; however, it was explained to us that it is not possible to spot any in that area, with the exception of the numerous cats that populate the village.Despite this, the experience was beautiful and authentic. Walking around the village and interacting with the locals was an amazing way to immerse yourself in the culture of the place. I highly recommend this experience to anyone looking for an authentic immersion into local life.

A relatively small tribe with a little bit of sight to experience the culture of other tribes

From the moment we arrived, we felt warmly welcome & cared for. The beautiful accomodations, delicious meals, & the unique cultural experiences they shared wt us truly made our visit unforgettable.

Pushing me to buy packages , it is overpriced . Even he can’t give me breakdown each activities, .you have to follow their program , not any customise program for own interested . For solo traveller , there is a surcharge too . Better stay at Steffan family stay cheaper and he will take care you well . Use maxim from kuching airport to his homestay , just only MYR 50. Anyway a lot activities can’t do right now, Borneo highlands, annah Rias hot springs water are also closed .
