What recent reviews say

Most guests praise the clean, large rooms and genuinely friendly staff at prices well below what the comfort level warrants. The grounds feel quiet and well-tended, with real cotton sheets and reliable wifi uncommon for the island. Distance from the beach and town is the trade-off; you need a scooter or taxi. Some report maintenance lapses (plumbing, heating) and cleaning skips during longer stays, though staff handle problems quickly when raised.

The place suits couples or families who value space and calm over convenience and fancy amenities. Better for those with transport, or who plan to relax on-site rather than hop between attractions daily.

What reviews say by service

Beachfront & Island Homestay
Close to Tanjung Rhu (10 min scooter ride), peaceful alternative to beachfront; 5 km from main beach requires transport.
Family & Large Group Homestay
Spacious rooms and flexible upgrading to family bedrooms suit groups; staff responsive but daily cleaning not guaranteed on long stays.
Homestay
Strong wifi, real cotton sheets, and genuine hospitality stand out for a homestay; maintenance and housekeeping consistency are weak points.

Most guests find Eagleye a serene, well-kept tropical retreat with attentive staff like Leena who go out of their way. Reviewers praise the spacious cottages, beachfront location, and on-site cafe serving both Western and local food. Downsides: remote setting requires bike or car rental, and one booking inquiry went unanswered.

Beachfront setting with a working bar and sea-view terrace draws guests seeking authentic local atmosphere. Host arranges boat trips and beach activities, though one visitor lost two nights to room problems and had to relocate mid-stay.

Barokah Homestay

Most guests value the quiet rainforest location near Kilim Geopark and mangrove attractions, with spacious rooms at low prices. One recent visit flagged a cramped entry, missing mirror, and air conditioning that needed more cooling power.
