What recent reviews say

Five-star reviewers found the place spacious and peaceful for family stays, with comfortable rooms and parking. However, one-star complaints consistently target the owner's difficult personality, hidden charges, deposit disputes, and maintenance issues like cloudy water and poor sanitation. The stark gap between high and low ratings suggests vastly different experiences depending on booking type and guest expectations.

Homestay Limas

4.8(95)✓ Google-verified

Guests consistently describe the house as clean, spacious, and well suited to family groups seeking a comfortable base. The private pool draws repeated praise from parents, and the owner earns credit for friendly, responsive communication and accommodating early check-ins. Most stay multiple nights and mention easy access around Malacca and ample bedroom space. A few note missing touches like wifi in living areas and upgraded kitchen stock, while one recent guest hit construction noise. Overall, families come back."

Pak Mat Homestay

3.8(25)✓ Google-verified

Pak Mat draws families and large groups with negotiable rates, a pool, and BBQ setup. The owner is personable and the property can feel welcoming for short stays. However, drainage problems emerge during rain, basic amenities require guests to bring their own, and casual maintenance means some guests encounter water damage or broken fixtures without quick fixes.
