We stayed for one night at the Annah Rais longhouse in April 09. Edward and his son Cab are incredibly hospitable people catering as best they can to your every need. There are a number of beautiful natural attractions nearby (waterfalls, rapids, swimming holes, jungle treks). However, because we slept on standard matresses in a structure with cable television, flush toilets, washing machines, refrigerators, and cell phone service, I do not feel that I experienced the true tribal culture. We did get to participate in a blowpipe demonstration and tribal dance. I think this would have been much more enjoyable had more visitors been present. All in all, I think a bit overpriced but given its convenience to Kuching (one hour by car) and beautiful surroundings, it was worth it

If you are travelling to Kuching Sarawak, Annah Rais longhouse is the place to be. My stay there was a memorable and enjoyable one.. i really miss the people and the place now that i'm back home from my short vacation.

The homestay with the local Bidayuh tribe at the longhouse was packed with activities.. good food fresh from the jungle.. great friendly people to hang out with..

I paid RM368 for 3d2n full board. i was told you can actually stay there longer or shorter based on your preference. for RM99 per nite, you can extend your stay.

The longhouse coordinator Mr Edward and his family made me feel really at home. 3d2n wasn't enough for me but unfortunately couldn't extend my stay due to work commitment.. would recommend to all of you out there who wanna find out more about the life and history of tribal people in sarawak, experience their life style/ kampong life and also discover the beautiful rainforest in sarawak. best still having the local guys serenading you with their acoustic performances:) i feel really privileged and honoured.

it is definitely a must visit for all.. to find out more go visit [--]

You can always write to Mr Edward to ask for more information.
And if he ask you how you know about the longhouse just tell him Yati from Singapore recommends it!

Well have fun people when you get there!
