Amazing retreat villas located in Penang. It was an amazing experience that I will remember . The stuff was great , they speak less English but it was all good.Special thanks to the friendly stuff and very helpful. The Manager Sim was hosting well with all information that we need . After we meet up with a men name Tony , believing he was the one who run the show behind all the villas. He is very humble and helpful with all well knowledge and explore.

This hotel is quirky and probably the most outlandish hotel you’ll stay whilst in Penang. Each lodge is unique and original, and filled with lovely antiques … and, strangely, karaoke machines. It is situated in the middle of the forest, high up the hill. It has a small swimming pool, but no restaurant. Breakfast was delivered to us on a beautiful patio area sitting on a goldfish pond next to a waterfall. It’s close to the airport but you’ll need to plan your journey carefully, as the hotel is in the hills at the top of a very poor local road. The hotel does operate an airport shuttle though, and Stephen, our driver, was very friendly, informative and helpful. This hotel really caters for those wanting to get away from it all for a few days, so beware that it does not have a restaurant or much in the way of cooking facilities, bar the barbeque. During the evening, the hotel arranged for a local taxi driver to pick us up and take us to the food court at the Spice Center in Penang where we had the most wonderful local food. Suffice to say, we thoroughly enjoyed our one night stay here and will fondly remember our last evening in Penang, nestling amongst the forest in our very own luxury tree house.

I don’t really have anything negative to say about Fig Tree. It is unusual! To improve, I think the management could introduce a limited evening meal to guests, possibly a fixed menu highlighting some of the beautiful food that you can find in Penang.

We lodged in at Lily Villa(3bedrooms) for a two days one night stay. It is very spacious to cater a big family. We had a good time there with some activities with the kids like swimming, barbecue at night, karaoke sessions etc.
It is definitely worth a visit and we will come back again.

We accidentally booked this place without knowing the journey there would be a difficult one. The road up to the resort is meant for 4-wheeled cars as it is bumpy and narrow (only for one car at a time). The resort is clean but a little dusty (expect fully wood flooring & furniture only). D floors had some holes as it's natural wood so you have to be careful. Ideal place if you're looking for a retreat away from the city / civilisation.
Special thanks to Arrif (our 'butler') as he was extremely accommodating and helpful.
