8 of us bunk into a double storey cabin. The initial feel of the resort wasn't exactly impressive as it was a bit different from what we had expected. The people, the food as well as bringing ourselves back into nature changed our experience. We did a short 2 hrs jungle trail ourselves and manage to catch a waterfall that... More

First of all I have to say that we made a great choice going for Permai Rainforest instead of the Damai Beach Resort. I called both on the same day and Damai told me that we would have to pay 38RM per day for the wifi, and the wifi only works at the reception. Well I didn't like the sound... More

After leaving ones car in the car park at the very end of the Damai peninsular one is faced with quite a long walk along a board walk through rainforest to the accommodation area , baggage can be transported for you , It was fascinating to be so quickly enveloped in jungle , to hear the noises of animals ,...

Great setting in the rainforest, the treehouses look pretty cool but unfortunately these were all booked up so we stayed in a cabin. This was very basic and reminded us a bit of a Guide Hut. It was quite dirty and looked like it could do with a spruce up, although we did have a very friendly lizard in our... More

From trip advisor we had read mixed reviews so wasn't sure what to expect. We got a minibus from grand Margherita at 9am - 20 rm return. Takes 45 mins to get to the beach, the scenery en route is gorgeous. We did a day trip and it was definitely more than enough. We went to the last resort along... More

On our recent trip to Malaysia and Borneo, the Permai was the place I was looking forward to staying at most of all but, unfortunately, our stay didn’t get off to a great start. I had emailed the resort direct to reserve a treehouse for 3 nights some 6 months in advance, and I re-confirmed this 3 weeks prior to... More

This clearly caters for locals and tourists. The tree houses are fun to stay in but we moved to a chalet which I actually preferred as you feel more "in touch" with the forest at ground level. The chalets are basic. There was only one single socket in the hall area which meant choosing between the fridge and the kettle... More

We stayed in treehouse nr 7. Here we enjoyed the voices of the jungle and the sea. Staff very friendly. Nice jungle trails. Food in the café not that good. I'd suggest to go to the Damai food court at 10 min. walking distance from the hotel.

We took a taxi here from Kuching and were impressed by the natural beauty and upkeep of this jungle paradise. The reception staff was okay but it was the cafe and beach staff that really shined. The treehouse in which we stayed was rustic but spacious and sparkly clean with a large balcony that came with a view of the... More
