The Dusun

Berembun Resort Sdn Bhd (1123792-M) A little piece of Paradise tucked in the hills of Negeri Sembilan.

The Dusun is seven self-catering, socially-conscious, eco-bungalows on a durian orchard. In 1984, our family began planting trees on this 12-acre lot. We now have huge trees, 2 forest walks, 6 bungalows, 2 pools, deer, chickens, fish and vegetables when the elements cooperate. The Dusun is designed after our family lifestyle of privacy, long talks, cooking up storms, beautiful views from open-conc

ept houses and watching and listening to nature. It is the perfect place to spend quiet quality time with loved ones or by yourself. There is wifi in a common area sometimes and no TV in any of our bungalows. It is suitable for those looking for an off-grid nature experience. With bungalows on the top of a hill and wind off the forest reserve, we enjoy cooler temperatures at night. Each house has a fully equipped kitchen and outdoor barbecue. We are committed to low-impact resort operations, hiring locally, supporting the community, composting, phosphate-free products, organic farming and air-cond free houses. We continue to nurture and sculpt our little piece of paradise with more forest walks, plants and animals.

Many years ago, charming and historical craftsmanship like this was easy to find in junkyards close to Seremban. As wooden houses were being replaced by brick structures, these remnants of kampung houses were thrown out. We managed to salvage some for our buildings. In these pictures are Emas House.

Helen and David studied kampung house architecture for how they let light in, and how wind is guided through the house for coolness. The only difference is most houses showed carving to the outside, but Helen faces carvings inside so they can be admired by the occupants of the house.

The community here at The Dusun is literally our local community. Most of our team members are from surrounding villages, and many of them are related to each other within large extended families.

The two closest villages to us are home to Temuan people, an Indigeous of Malaysia. There are two Temuan villages close to us and most of our staff are from this community. The Orang Asli’s knowledge of the jungle is unparalleled. For generations, the rainforest was a source of food and medicine in this culture and many families still own small farms inside and by the jungle. But many also enjoy the stability of wages as Seremban, and its surroundings get busier.

The Temuan speak their own language and are traditionally animists. Their sacred graveyards are hidden deep in the rainforest. The Temuan treat the jungle with great respect; believing that each river, tree, shrub and rock has a guardian spirit. Much of Temuan life was guided by taboos, herbal remedies, rituals and a bit of magic. Although, these days, many Orang Asli have converted to Islam or other religions.

Mindfulness is a bit of a mystery, but it's a refreshing practice when you have some time and are in nature.

You can try this anywhere. Start by counting your breath. One for inhale, two for exhale. It's normal to have thoughts come, that's what the brain does - let the thought pass without judging yourself.

Take note of what you can hear around you. The jungle can be surprisingly loud, especially at night. Then notice what you feel on your skin, and where your body meets the chair or floor.

Do this for as long or short as you like, just practice. Like the magpie robin flitting from branch to branch, as your mind wanders, you can just land on counting breaths or noticing your surroundings.

The Patio is where we offer breakfast for our guests, group meals, drinks for sale, and free Wi-Fi. Guests can also order breakfast, lunch, or dinner from The Patio and the food will be delivered straight to the house you are staying in.

Besides this, we also provide barbecue services where we bring the barbecue equipment to the guests' rooms, allowing them to grill their own food.

Walks in The Dusun:

- Petai Forest Walk
Sitting on the edge of the estate is a Petai forest. Surrounded by towering petai trees is a pathway we hand crafted to allow guests to explore this beautiful forest. You can spot petai, also known as 'stinky bean' -a common delight enjoyed amongst many South East Asians; and other fruit trees.

- Mahogany Forest Walk
Just below Berembun House is an acre of magnificent Mahogany trees. A path now winds its way through it, one path, taking you to one of the nearby rivers in the area.

Have you heard of Forest Bathing?
Forest bathing, also known as Shinrin-yoku in Japanese, is a practice that involves immersing oneself in nature, particularly forests, for the purpose of enhancing mental, emotional, and physical well-being. Originating in Japan in the 1980s, forest bathing has gained popularity worldwide as a form of nature therapy.

Forest bathing emphasizes on slowing down and fully engaging with the natural environment. Participants are encouraged to use all their senses to connect with the sights, sounds, smells, textures, and even tastes of the forest. The practice often involves mindfulness techniques such as deep breathing, meditation, and gentle movement exercises. These activities aim to induce a state of relaxation, reduce stress levels, and promote a sense of calm and well-being.

Numerous studies have highlighted the health benefits associated with forest bathing. These benefits may include reduced blood pressure, lower levels of cortisol (a stress hormone), improved mood, enhanced immune function, increased energy levels, and improved sleep quality.

Overall, forest bathing offers a holistic approach to well-being by encouraging individuals to slow down, reconnect with nature, and reap the physical, mental, and emotional benefits of spending time in natural environments.

Come forest bathe at The Dusun. Book directly on our website for the best rates.

Negeri Sembilan or Nine States (or districts) because it contains nine districts; is affectionately known as Negeri or Nogori in the local dialect, it certainly is a unique state in Malaysia.

Most of its original Malay population came from the Padang region of Sumatra in the 18th and 19th centuries and are known as Minangkabau or Minang people. It is a matrilineal culture known for exemplary hospitality and distinctive cuisine within Malaysian culture.

Also distinct is their dramatic yet practical roof architecture, which rises up at the corners, letting heat rise and leaving the house cool. You can view this roof in state buildings in Seremban and one magnificent centenary house in Pantai. It is on the right as you leave Pantai, heading towards Seremban.

The Dusun
Designed for families, couples and close friends

Nobody likes those double beds with a ravine running down the middle when two single beds are pushed together. So we only have double beds and single in the larger houses.

The Dusun is designed for connecting with loved ones - quiet moments, awe-inspiring views, reading together, gentle walks, cooking up storms, lingering meals and long, deep talks.

The original Dusun house is named after the majestic Tembusu tree, which provides shade throughout the day and infuses the space with its fragrant scent during the flowering season. Tembusu house has an open layout, allowing the bedroom to feel as though it's nestled among the trees.

Do you notice that ideas come to you in the shower, while driving or when you're about to fall asleep?

So many creative people have enjoyed making music, writing, painting, drawing, and brainstorming during their stay here. We have even had some offline company retreats. A bit of space plus a bit of time steeped in nature, and you'll surprise yourself.

In 2016, we created a beautiful music residency called Soundlab. 16 musicians from all over Southeast Asia and Germany spent 10 days at The Dusun making music together. It was sponsored by -Institut Malaysia, and a limited edition CD was produced.

Although each house has a kitchen, we do cater meals for those who prefer not to cook.

Catered food is cooked on the Patio, where only our staff are allowed to cook so we can control a halal environment. When it comes to traditional Malaysian cuisine, this is as authentic as you can get. And we also have Western classics, if that's what you feel like.

All organic waste is sent to our compost bins which is then used to fertilise our gardens.
