Time slows down and nature truly embraces you here in Saloma Villagestay, Sarawak. I immersed myself in the cultural richness, traditional delicacies, and warmth of Sarawakian hospitality.

Have you ever tried “jungle shopping” before? And what about bamboo cooking? That is just a little taste of what we had experienced in our short but meaningful stay in Saloma Village.

A hidden gem where you can go back to basics and discover the essence of the authentic village life.

You, Me and Malaysia coming soon to TLC Southeast Asia.

Out of the bustling city and into the calm rainforests of Sarawak! From farm to table, we cooked fresh food using the bamboo method and immerse in the “kampung” life of the Bidayuh tribe. The Sarawak rainforest is really like no other, I can’t explain how soothing it is to be surrounded by clean running rivers and the crisp breeze 🍃
Stay tuned to witness what Saloma Villagestay has to offer! 😉

Dear future guests, for bookings or enquiries about packages offered at our HOMESTAY, kindly proceed to our website salomavillagestay.net

Apologies as I am unable to attend to every message received in our inbox due to poor reception in the village. I would also appreciate your effort to do a bit of homework before sending us enquiries - most answers to queries are written nicely on our website below.

However, for immediate feedback from us, kindly WhatsApp us at 016 - 868 2525. I, myself, would be happy to assist with your enquiry.

As our HOMESTAY is a normal house like others, we DO NOT accept walk-in guests as we prioritise our HOMESTAY guests privacy and of course our family living here as well.

I appreciate your kind understanding.

Thanks & looking forward to welcoming you at our jungle.

To promote tourism in Sarawak, we dont really need "Muslim Friendly Concept" as for now. We in Sarawak are beyond that.

What we need is upgrading our own tourism infrastructure, brings more flight, explore new area, upgrade the facilities to all Sarawak hidden gems places, work together with private sector etc..

First step: Listen to the people

Happy Malaysia Day!
