Thebaliboardinghouse – Your Home Away from Home

Good value for money. Area was quiet and had a nice peaceful garden, with hanging chairs and a slack line. Great staff!

Thank you so much for a wonderful stay. I always feel immediately at home, and the garden is such a super peaceful space to relax in with different hanging chairs and hammocks etc. I always extend my stay when I'm here as I love it so much. The kitchen is fully equipped with everything you need and love that each room has its own drinking water. It's a super central location too. Thank you to Desi, the owner, you have helped me when I needed it the most and I will appreciate that forever. Also thanks to Irma and team for their friendliness, cheery smiles, cleaning after me, and doing my laundry super quick.

what a flop this was... I stayed here 5 days. Still regretting it. The location is good you are 15 mins to any beach. So you are in the center. However, pretty small rooms. no closet, beds are uncomfortable. But i thought that it should not be a big issue cause there is a big garden. But there is constant construction noise. Everyday, including weekend… i heard they will also build some extra bungalows. So more construction is guaranteed. Plus, the staff, the owner, the manager, they use the common spaces as their office. not much room for you. The manager (Desi) is very nice and doing her best to compensate for the trouble the construction is bringing. You will also be able to spot the owner who is living in one of the rooms and not so friendly (would never say hi to you for instance So if you have some space left for yourself from the management and also the construction feel free to enjoy yourself. Its in the village btw. So its away from the chaos and the main street. But it means a lot of roosters screaming as of 05:00 am 🙂 For this price you can find much better and comfortable rooms. the bed was a disaster and if you are too people, no way you can sleep in the room.

I have booked over new years and now I am being contacted from boarding house via whatsapp that there are no room available

Love this place! The Garden is just beautiful, the rooms are clean and there is a water dispenser in every room. You can make your own coffee anytime and it is included in the price. Big thanks to Desi and Irma! They are very mindful and helping you with everything! Best place to stay on the Bukit! Terima kasih and Sampai jumpa lagi ❤️🙏

Can confirm the rave reviews. Desi and her team are genuinely lovely, and treat you like long lost family. The open space is so calming and green. I can understand why some people stay for months. I will be back for sure, hopefully for longer next time 🧡
