What recent reviews say
Country Road sits right among the rice paddies in Perlis, offering a quiet rural escape with clean cabins, a pool, and plenty of free activities: bicycles, fishing, badminton, and evening sunsets over the fields. Guests consistently praise the humble staff, the attached cafe run by barista Irfan, and genuine kampung atmosphere; the place delivers well-maintained spaces and good value.
One nagging thread: a handful of recent guests reported room odors, lizard feces, roof leaks, and minor maintenance gaps (broken furniture, no TV). These are not universal complaints, but they do crop up often enough to flag. If you are comfortable with a basic, nature-immersed stay and do not mind occasional quirks, you will likely enjoy it; if spotless infrastructure and modern amenities matter most, ask detailed questions before booking.

Homestay Denai Harummanis S4
5.0(25)✓ Google-verified
Guests consistently praise this working farm homestay for its calm setting amid harumanis mango trees and rice paddies, with one reviewer calling it a floating observation platform offering 360-degree rural views. Host Abang Sabri and his wife are noted for genuine warmth, often gifting baked goods, snacks, or fried banana jamu; the houses feature full kitchens, air conditioning, and fishing ponds, though guests report the separate units are far apart and there's no commercial BBQ pit.
