Honey bee and camp

Review of Min House Camp
4.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed 29 Dec 2018via mobile
A place where you have honey bee (kelulut species) guided tour at RM 10 per person but this money is actually to help the down syndrome association. The owner will personally explain and bring you around the bees farm. This place is not those commercial honey farm. As such you could only purchase their "kelulut" honey if you are lucky. Was told you can have camping and home stay here but we are here only for 2 hours.

Reviewed 16 November 2018

We stayed here for 2 nights on our way to the Perhentian Islands. We came straight from the airport, and the taxi driver had no problem finding it. The setting is lovely, surrounded by lush vegetation, a river flowing by, and an extensive garden. The people are a highlight, super friendly and hospitable hosts who are happy to give local advice and organise taxis, ferry tickets etc.

We enjoyed being shown around the extensive garden, learning about the bees and tasting their amazing 'sweet and sour' honey, and a short trip on the river in canoes (be prepared to get a bit wet!) to see the fireflies. We went for a walk through the nearby village, hoping to eat at the local cafe/restaurant, unfortunately, it was closed, so we stopped in at the noodle shack by the bridge for a great lunch, simple but tasty. On our way back from a walk, we had fresh coconut there and a chat with locals who were very welcoming.
We had breakfasts and dinner in the dining room at Min House Camp, and I enjoyed trying different local food.
The rooms are simply furnished, we had aircon and attached bathroom (some dorms don't), chair, tv, small fridge. Outside there are places to walk, sit, read, watch the river. This is a place to slow down, breath deeply and enjoy the setting and if that is what you are looking for you will love it. Min house camp also hosts large groups and conferences so while we had a very quiet day, by the evening there were two larger groups staying there. The only thing that marred our stay was a school camp who were there on our second night and were anything but peaceful through the night, so it could pay to check who else is sharing the complex with you! Other than that, we loved our stay.

Room tip: Aircon and attached bathroom are well worth it, as the other rooms are very basic.

I booked the room 2 months in advance , only to be told on arrival that they had no rooms available. Initially they offered to put us in a display room with no a/c, but after discussions we were given one of the staff's room. But the a/c didn't really work, so it was a fitful night. One staff member was very apologetic but the damage was done. They did knock 1/3 off the price. The camp is in a rustic locale.

Beautiful location beside river on outskirts of KB. Breakfasts great. Think they are hoping to upgrade rooms which is needed imo. Looked after very well by Simon who took us on fireflies trip which was amazing and sorted us out with kayaking trip and made us feel welcome. Grab taxi service was lifesaver as it enabled us to get out and about to sightsee and visit restaurants in the evening.

This place is great for those seeking the best experience in the nature. Owners are really nice family people. My son loves the place. Only thing is make sure you bring your own food like bread and biscuits.

I did not stay here so can't comment on that side of it, but this is a wonderful place to visit - and I did wish that I had planned to stay for the night to see the fireflies. The welcome was warm and the place is just lovely.
