Rimba Hang Kasturi Villa

Paying a price of RM1700+ for a night, in the hopes of a good family staycay. I'm a family of five inc 1 baby. My honest reviews for all of you to consider. Rundown. Wooden plank floors forgiveable as we understand that it's an old permanent structure however, can improve on rectification work for flooring to be much safer for elderlies and kids. No additional powerpoint for charging at level 1 hall and dining area. Staircase handrail only on one side and the other exposed, very dangerous for kids and elderlies. VERY Unsafe. 1 room have no pillows at all. Toilet shower head faulty and leaking. Everytime we take the shower head to Bath, the other hit the glass panel. Housekeeping especially toilets, not clean. See for yourself. Fireworks noise outside the road every few minutes which impacted my elderlies and baby's sleep. Exposed tree connected to the roof "for natural eco living" however no landscape maintenance as mosquitoes are all over the "villa". Understand that a mozzie spray was supplied but all these wasn't highlighted for a top ranked villa in Jonker. TV remote controllers were brought back by the Management as most are faulty. TV channels very limited, had a hard time to switch on. Housekeeping and management should check after every guest leave. No reasons at all especially for what we are paying per night. Second floor no centralised pantry area or at least a kettle in the room. So inconvenient for us to grab a drink or especially for a baby like mine. Or someone who brought an elderly along. The space is so redundant at level 2 outside the rooms, only to see mosquitoes flying. Pool water super cold. No warm water flow. Management should improve on ALOT of rectification works and improvement works to be done for it to be rated 10/10 and one of the so called best villa in Jonker St. Super dissapointed for a night stay for such a hefty price. Super dissapointed.

Overall lovely place to stay with big groups. We went with a group of 8 and occupied all three private rooms and part of the main room. There is air-conditioning in all rooms except for the common/living area downstairs. Main downside is that mosquitoes can still enter your rooms as some of the walls have holes, mostly near the toilet area so you may find a mosquito or two in your rooms. Slightly manageable if you let down the curtains that separates the toilet area from the bed but you will still find 1 or 2 mosquitoes when you're using the toilet or showering. Would recommend to bring mosquito repellant. Good location as the villa is 2 mins walk away to Jonker Street. However, the beds near the window in the main room are exposed to loud noises from outside, as occasionally you have people going home from the bars or tuktuks driving past with their music blasting. May suggest noise cancelling ear plugs to help if you're staying in the main room.

A rimba hidden in Jonker area! It is a unit at one of the street near Jonker street.. converted to a rustic and nature feel kind of home.. very walkable to Jonker street.. can fit up to 14 pax.. very suitable for group reunion.. need to park at a parking spot 5 minutes walk from the place.. once parked, don't bother using car anymore as Jonker street is just around the corner!

The location was good as it was a short walk to the night market. The inside was a wonderful space that you couldn't imagine from the outside. Each room was spacious enough for 8 people to stay and each room was very stylish, but if you use the shower on the 2nd floor for a long time, the rain will leak onto the 1st floor, so be careful. Also, mosquitoes come in through the gap in the window, so cover it with a tissue before you sleep. A small pool inside the room? pond? It was great to cool down my tired feet from walking. The room was very clean and comfortable, and the bed was spacious and comfortable. I stayed for 2 nights, but there was no washing machine, so I asked for laundry service.
