Room 2, hotel in Mulu

Room 2 is situated in Mulu. Towels and bed linen are available in the homestay.

Dina and Robert are amazing hosts. They do their best to make you feel welcome and Dina is a great cook. Highly recommend eating here instead of any of the restaurants. Staying here really gives you the local amazing experience. It's not luxury but you see how the people live and how friendly they are.

Mulu Village, hotel in Mulu

Situated in Mulu, Mulu Village offers accommodation with a patio. The homestay offers a terrace. It is 2.4 km to Mulu National Park. The nearest airport is Mulu Airport, 2.6 km from Mulu Village.

Very nice homestay. Just a bit far from the National Park entrance. Run by Brenda (who is also an official guide to the caves) and James (who is the driver for airport transfers etc). We intended to join tours with Brenda but every time we were ready the tours were cancelled because it was not enough people (though no mention had been made previously that there was a minimum number of participants). James would then drive us to the NP entrance, where we would join a tour run by the park staff. Leaving that aside, no complaints. Has a nice common area, no restaurant but there is one across the street.

Helena Homestay, hotel in Mulu

Located in Mulu in the Sarawak region with Gunung Mulu National Park nearby, Helena Homestay provides accommodation with free private parking. The homestay features family rooms.

This review is based on the situations in a remote place like Mulu. The stay was good. It's about 1-1.5 km from Mulu national park and airport, so it's in walkable location. The host Helena and Shania was supportive. The room had 3 single beds. Initially I thought it would be a dormitory type of stay. But they have multiple rooms. It is a budget homestay. They prepare dinner and lunch is you ask for. Prices are at par with Mulu park restaurant.

    AA Homestay is close enough to the park entrance that you can run home & pick up forgotten stuff! So convenient! Albert & Mary are super friendly and kind, Albert even brought some forgotten items to us at the airport—where else does that happen?? The accommodation is simple (so, no A/c) but the fan works great and bathroom is en suite. I would definitely stay here again!

    We really enjoyed our stay at D’Cave Homestay. Dina, Robert and their friends were very welcoming and staying with them in the evening for dinner together was like feeling at home. Their advice on tours and how to prepare us were really precious. It was an experience that we will remember as one of the best of our trip to Borneo.

    The main difference compared to Hotels is the homestay itself. We had nice talks with homestay family and guests. So, we learned a lot about native people, Mulu, Borneo history, Malaysia. It is in the midst of rainforest, therefore nature is everywhere. Impressive!

    We loved our stay here for a night before heading into the park for the pinnacles tour. Amazing food and great to chat to our lovely hosts. Everything was so clean and the bed was super comfortable. Great location halfway between the airport and the park and we really appreciated the help with our bags when we walked into the park after checkout!

    We loved our stay at AA Homestay! Albert, Irene and Mary are very welcoming and we felt very much at home. The rooms are comfortable and perfect for those heading into Mulu national park, as it's only 5 mins walk. The airport is also very close. Irene and Mary are great chefs, and we stayed for dinner both nights we were there. Definitely recommend!

    We stayed at D'Cave Homestay for four nights and had a wonderful time! Dina is a great host! We had so much fun staying there. She prepared nice dinner and breakfast (we especially liked the pancakes!). Dina joined us for dinner in the evening, we had interesting conversations, she showed us a local dance and we did some karaoke. She made us feel like home and helped us organize some tours. Location is in walking distance to the airport and the park entrance which is a huge plus. We will certainly remember our stay here! Thank you Dina!

    Diana homestay is quite convenient as you can request for car shuttle service to/from airport and national park. Also you can dine in the homestay for lunch and dinner with a fee. Diana is also very welcoming and a good host to the guests.
