TreeTops Tourist Lodge

(and Mini Eco-Retreat)

Miri, Borneo

Pleasant rural atmosphere away from the city noise and heat; relax in the old fashioned way with a good book and good food ...

 Accommodation from RM35 (Malaysian Ringgit) per person per night (basic rooms, Longhouse style) to RM55 per person for more luxurious separate rooms with en-suite bathrooms and air-conditioning (both include a light breakfast).

We are on the new coastal road, past Marriott Hotel and past Luak Bay, about 15 kms from the town and just 3 kms after BAKAM Village you will see a large green sign by the main road to "Treetops Lodge". You should try to arrive and check in by 6 p.m. Last buses from Miri are at 5.30 and 6.30 pm and taxis charge 50% extra after this time; besides you would miss the sunset and dinner if any later!

Transfer to/from airport or town Taxi is RM40-55 per journey or take the number 13 bus from outside the Visitors Centre to the last stop for TreeTops Lodge (bus costs RM4.00). (Call us first and we will meet you at the bus stop if we can).

TreeTops Lodge, Miri, Borneo

 

  Longhouse rooms on the Dam below Main House

    Not far from the Lambir Hills and sitting high up overlooking the jungle, just along the coast from Miri, Sarawak, is TreeTops Lodge; situated on the outskirts of the village named  Siwa Jaya, which has about 20 houses in it.  A good "transit" lodge to start your travels through Borneo!

 downstairs patio                    

The verandah is a cool, breezy place high up at tree-top level; an ideal spot to take breakfast in the mornings or for a few drinks in the evening as the sun sets on the far side. Set menu every evening for RM26 plus a la Carte to order.

    A 15 foot "plunge" pool, recently tiled and refurbished, is built into the lower terrace - very convenient for a cool dip day or night!

 Pool Terrace

Around and below the house are 2 acres of carefully tended fruit trees - orange, lemon, rambutan, mango plus pineapples and vegetables, and right at the bottom is a small dam with fish (Tilapia) for breeding (and eating!). Along the dam is a small traditional longhouse with six basic rooms for "backpackers" and other adventurers. The beach is just a ten minute walk away. Beyond the immediate garden are six acres of mixed jungle and farming land, planted at times with rice (padi fields) or maize of various kinds and these lead down to the river; still further takes you uphill and into the Lambir Forest Reserve. Many good walks and mountain bike rides nearby (<click here!) We have two mountain bikes for hire at RM35 per day.

"A special slice of paradise!"

- we are in the countryside with no shops, traffic or town facilities.

"The Water Village"  - above, now completed and open with 10 beds.
