What recent reviews say

Reviewers consistently praise the quiet village setting and strategic location near Kota Bharu, along with the large clean pool and comfortable furnishings. The homestay suits families and groups seeking affordable waterside space with amenities like fast WiFi, working kitchen, and 24-hour pool access; one dated review noted service shortcomings, though recent feedback is uniformly strong.

Based on limited recent reviews, so treat this as low-confidence.
