What recent reviews say
HR Residence 2 works well for multi-family groups seeking a spacious, clean house with a big pool and flexible kitchen. The 3-bedroom layout, lawn, and reasonable RM 500 nightly rate appeal to families; most guests praise the owner's helpfulness and location near shops. Downsides include uneven maintenance (toilet and mattress issues reported), strict house rules with deposit penalties, and a pool depth or chlorine profile that favours older children and adults over toddlers. Parking is tight for large parties arriving with multiple cars.

Common questions

Families consistently report a large, clean house with a popular pool and excellent host communication. Rooms are comfortable and well-equipped; the kitchen and amenities suit group cooking. Main caveats: the living room can get hot without air conditioning, and one guest felt basic supplies were sparse for the nightly rate.
