Belum Eco Resort (BER) is the only private island resort in Lake Temenggor with pristine scenic environment offers guest a unique place to experience the 130-million year old rainforest of Belum-Temenggor forest reserved. It is the only resort far away from Banding island where noise and air pollution from the East West highway is most disturbing. Due to our strategic location our guests enjoyed the best opportunity to spot wildlife, birds and insects in its natural habitat plus the ever surprising magical sun rise and sun set scenery that occurs from time to time. BER offers guest excellent swimming, fishing and canoeing activities in the pristine environment.

We really loved our stay at Belum Eco Resort. Especially because of Bohan. What a great man! He is the boat man, tour guide, host and jungle man. He is a little bit shy and insecure about his English language, but that’s not needed. He is fantastic! The rooms are basic, so don’t expect a luxury stay, but the view over the lake was wonderful. The food was really, really good and we played with the little dogs and had fun with the talking birds at the entrance. We did kayaking and swimming in the lake in our free time. We did not see elephants, but that’s nature. We loved our time here and really recommended it! Kind regards, Tom and Loes

The best part of our trip is the tour guide -- Bohan, who took care of everything, from logistic to accommodation, jungle trekking to chatting/cultural exchange after dinner. The chalet is nice and cozy, and with ample space to put our stuff and hang our clothes. It was nice to shower in the bathroom which has a window view of the nature. The weather was good so we didn't find going to the detached bathroom annoying or inconvenient. Each chalet has a painting/art piece next to the door, which shows the artistic sense of the owner. The bamboo lunch box is very unique and sustainable. Each one of us carried our bamboo lunch box to jungle trekking and had our lunch at the waterfall after a refreshing time in the cool water. The resort is built and run sustainably. It is so good to see tourism operators who have sustainable mindset and don't consume/pollute our jungle for the sake of money. We saw a blooming rafflesia, several species of eagles, hornbills, heron, lantern bug, centipede, etc. There is so much more to explore and learn from the 130 million years rainforest.

We set off with high expectation of the resort as what more can you ask for when the hotel's tagline says "The only resort with its own island in Belum-Temenggor." First impression was good, we were greeted by the owners in their own boat. Small boat but adequate. From a distance, it "wow". But it soon goes downhill from there. 1/ the room is so small. Though clean, the room feels claustrophobia. Only good for sleeping. There is no electricity in the resort during day time. So if you wish to sleep in after 8am, too bad. Gets very hot and stuffy as there's little ventilation due to the room size. You can't leave the doors ajar unless you wish to be a "blood donor" when you sleep. 2/ a very small bathroom is outside the room. So bring a brolly in case it rains and you need to go to the toilet. Luckily it didn't rain when we were there. Floor is slimy and leaves much to be desired. 3/ internet connectivity is extremely bad. But that is a given considering it is somewhere in the jungle. Internet connection only available at the dining area and with limited users and when the owners are around. 4/ food is nice BUT not enough for the number of people there. Meals are buffet style but with very limited portion. Basically, I wish I didn't book the hotel in the first place.

Belum rainforest is far less famous than its counterpart Taman Negara, but is no doubt as interesting and immersive. This was a fantastic 3D2N getaway from the hustle and bustle of city life and back into nature. Don't expect a 5* Langkawi resort, but do expect well thought out, comfortable, clean accommodations with hot showers and some really yummy food. We picked pucuk paku from the forest, saw 4 blooming Rafflesias and had a swim in the cold waterfall.

The Indonesian lady who takes care of the meals in the resort has kept birds in captivity in very very small cages in their boat house which do not have space for the birds to move around, left alone fly. Might as well kill the birds than keeping them alive in such inhuman way. Spoke to the owner, Steve Khong about it but he didn’t care much. Such contrary to what they preach to be an environmental loving resort. Hope anyone who reads this review can educate and pressure the resort to release the birds. Apart from this, the staff are very friendly and accommodating. The resort is on an island which is surround by lake and rainforests. Very rustic and back to nature.

Our group of 13 with nowhere to go except to local destinations decided to take the 3 days 2 nights package @ Myr 500 per pax offer. On the 8 Sept 20, we were at the jetty waiting to be transported to Kong Island without any expectations. Realistically we did not expect much from the price we paid. 3 days later it was time to leave and what we experienced were worth more than Myr 500 p/pax. Clean chalets with scenic balcony, daily breakfast, lunch, tea and dinner, daily conducted boat excursions, free usage of OK room and kayaks for the more adventurous. The staff were superb, friendly and accommodating. To Steve Kong, Steven, Borhan and the orang asli boatmen, thank you for a totally unexpected experience. Hope to see you guys again.

The adventure begins when you step into the speedboat and fasten your life vest. Skimming over the sun-kissed waters of Lake Banding reflecting blue skies and jade green forests, you have an hour to enjoy clean air and watch out for hornbills. Accomodation Rooms are well planned and thought through. Loved the outdoor deck with shower and toilet .. far enough from the room for privacy and near enough to be convenient. Sitting on the deck, looking out onto the lake .. watching the fishing and kayakking enthusiasts while drinking coffee or sipping wine makes for a good holiday. Activities Our group of 30pax were able to fish, hike, swim and canoe during the day. At night we bonded over two great dinners - steamboat on the first night and bbq on the second. Thank you Steve and Susan for sharing your dream island with us! Your energy is truly inspiring. It is your warmth, generosity and hospitality which make this place so special. It feels like you are sharing your home with family and friends!

One of the best trips that I ever had for a long while! Belum Eco Resort is a rustic, tranquil, and eco-friendly resort, hosted by a friendly and accommodating couple, Steve and Susan. Upon arriving at the Pulau Banting Jetty, we were greeted by Mr. Borhan, the friendly and helpful boat captain that day. We were ushered to a lovely comfortable boat-house. The journey was smooth and scenic, and the lake is magnificent! Due credit to Borhan - he is an efficient and knowledgeable guide, a good photographer, boatman - he is generally a 'Jack of all trades.' The accommodation is a rustic chalet type, but clean with a separate bathroom and washbasin with a spacious balcony overlooking the lake. However, the resort does not provide basic toiletries and amenities. The food in the resort was simple yet, delicious, and generously served. To sum up my stay here - FANTASTIC! It's a highly recommended destination for those who need a 'back to nature' holiday with friends and family.

I decided to book Belum Eco Resort after chatting to friends that had also booked to stay here. Booking process was really simple and easy. All over whatsapp. All the information prior to getting to the jetty was excellent. Belum Eco Lodge is a short boat ride from Banding jetty. Met the owner, Steve, and made our way across to check in. On the way we stopped at a Raffelesia site. Short 5 minute walk. Raffelesia was dead, not really much to see. We had lunch and then checked in. Food was great throughout our whole stay. Enough to fill us up from all the activities. Tea/coffee available throughout the day. Afternoon tea and cake/biscuits also provided. In the afternoon we went elephant/bird spotting. Saw hornbills and monkeys. No elephants unfortunately. The next day we had breakfast but didn't get informed about the itinerary. Had to ask friends in the party. Later were informed. Visit to the waterfall and trekking was excellent. With two young children was a bit of a challenge but Bohan, our guide was amazing!!! So friendly and helpful. Nothing was too much trouble. The waterfall site we visited was amazing. In the afternoon we kayaked in the lake after helping ourselves. Swam in the lake too! That evening it rained heavy at dinner but no acknowledgment to us getting wet holding umbrellas!! 🤣 Following morning we asked what time our boat was due to leave. Time for another kayak before we left. In the end we went on the houseboat back to the jetty. I thoroughly enjoyed our trip and would well recommend it! Rooms were cosy. Loved it. Toilet outside. Bit rustic but in nature. The accommodation is a long walk from the main entry point. So beware of bringing large bags or lots of stuff. Like us. Noone to help you transport bags. Like I said, food was excellent throughout. The location of the resort is incredible. What views and scenery!!! Just be mindful that things are very casual. So if you need to know something or are not told. Ask. If you want a beer with dinner, not offered, ask! Maybe island life but a little slack. Having said that Bohan, our guide, was amazing! With improved communication and thought this place would be amazing!
