I'd been travelling in Borneo for 3 weeks with very mixed experiences as a female lone backpacker. I had just about had enough and decided to leave Borneo in despair when I happened across this little gem. The staff here are outstanding, they behaved better than any staff I've ever experienced, including that of 5 star hotels. They loaned me... more

We arrived here by accident in the middle of the night - given a wrong taxi voucher and a taxi driver who couldn't read a map. They found us a room, clean, comfortable, reassuring. Helpful, laid back, can't say what a relief it was. And we just joined the other guests - with a beer and good company life started... more

I had an awesome time at the house. The rooms were clean and the decorations gave a laid-back feel. It was great for crashing after a long day touring/beaching. The guys Dave, Mark, and Hanz were all very friendly and entertaining. Greeting us on arrival each time we returned to the house. Dave was especially helpful with arranging cabs and... more

i'm sorry to read that the previous person who left a review had such a poor experience. i stayed in a twin room. it was clean and comfortable, and so was the bathroom and kitchen. some of the plates and bowls in the sink were dirty but i think that's because of the people staying there who didn't wash up... more

My sister and I stayed at Borneo BeacHouse and had booked through hostel world. We were greeted by a friendly man at the front desk. We entered our room which was a double room with air con. It was DISGUSTING, there was food left on the beds and we had to sleep on our towels because the bed was so... more

Located 2mins from Tanjung Aru Beach wth amazing sunsets, my stay there was very enjoyable, relaxed and refreshing. Many thanks to Richie, Mark, David and Tri for making my stay a memorable one. As well as genuine hospitality shown to me and all other guests, there were many activities arranged that kept me occupied and having fun at the same... more

We stayed here for 1 night on 30/3/2009 They advertise that they are 5 min walk from terminal 2 and they are absolutely right! It's easy to walk and I think we would have been charged 10 - 15 RM for a taxi as this seems to be the minimum price. We were greeted at the office by a very... more

It depends on the purpose of visiting KK. Near from the airport and beach but far from the town. I recommend to someone who arrived by night flight, and don't want to spend the taxi fee (20RM) to town only for sleeping, you'd better walk to this place. 10min from terminal 2. fresh air. Morning promenade along the beach is... more

I stumbled upon the Borneo Beachouse by luck and I am 100000000% happy with my stay there. The location is ideal (near two of a traveler's main destinations: the airport and beach) and the centre of the city is just a 10 minute drive. I love the chill atmosphere of the beachouse. The guys who work there (and the manager)... more
