Happy people, nice and friendly. Personally I think it's a cool site to relax during holiday. Staying there has been a pleasure since it's located so well directly to a river and freakingly close to the jungle. It's surrounding is just amazing and peaceful. Houses and beds are cozy and very comfortable. Fairly I have to say ... I slept... More

This is a great place for a chill-out trip. Spent one night here. The owners are really friendly. So are their pets. The entire private b&b is located within an orchard, with turkeys, chickens, and pheasants walking around the free range. It's next to the Kinta River, which is quite nice. Next door is a family farm and a stud... More

We (2 adults & 4 kids) stayed over at the Roots during the recent CNY holidays 9th-12th Feb booked directly with the resort itself. We didn't want to put our hopes too high on resorts like this as it will normally fall short of our expectation but it was worth the drive. Our mistake was to travel during the eve... More

Fantastic, charming and memorable place to escape from cities and relax. And yet very clean rooms and environment. very helpful and friendly staffs. And select the rooms with Jacuzzi. However I think the bed is not very well performed, and they can use more beautiful colored cover for the mattress, to match better with the environment and room

The Roots Eco resort is located approx 20 minutes from the town of Ipoh which consist of various villa built by the Kinta River. All the villas are built cabin style with wooden flooring, walls and roof that were made from dried palm leaves. That being said some modern luxury or necessity are still available such as flushing toilets, hot... More
