Dennis and his team are so organised! They supplied an excellent set of downloadable information, including great eateries with vegetarian options (unlike many other areas, Cameron Highlands has been really easy to find veg food!). The house itself is small, quiet and calm. Loved the thoughtful touches in the decor. There is a kitchen to do light cooking which was very welcome, and it was very easy to get fresh veg and meat etc from local markets. It’s within very easy walking distance from useful shops, eateries and local areas of interest.

Not that I disliked it, but something to factor in is that taxis to and from this village to the town were at least 40MR each way. I had unfortunate luck and couldn’t get the bus to stop at the village for either leg of my journey, nor could the 1/2 day tour collect from the village. I’d still stay here rather than the town though, and the hosts were exceptionally helpful with all my travel questions. Staying here was relaxing, I loved walking around and all the locals were really generous and welcoming.

Love the ambience, feels like a pause in time with the decorations. The room is very comfy and enough space. Bathroom is always cold but it’s okay. Kitchen is clean and cute. It’s giving instagramable vibes. The riverside decks is very spacious for a yoga or meditations sessions.

Only ONE thing. They advertise there is a designated smoking area but there is NOT. We had to go to the parking lot across the street like it’s illegal haha. Not a problem for us because we respect the rules 🤭 Should just put no smoking throughout.

Near centre of village. Dennis gave a clear idea of local amenities and walks etc. Locals friendly and accommodating. The hostel had a charm of its own with the eternal sound of the river!

Unlucky holiday period, so excursions not available unless used.taxi services. The neighbour's dog was barking for a long time from 6 a.m...earplugs not provided. The river doesn't count in terms of rival decibels.

Property was super lovely, with some good views and great facilities. Comfy bed, and were given a very helpful guide of what to do from the guest house. Had a very filled and fun couple of days of completing some of the trails and then had a half day tour that was very easy to book. The guesthouse can even let your bus to your next destination, know that you’re staying here, so that you can save on the travel to Tanah Rata. We also rate Mama’s cafe, a restaurant in the village, for food!!

It’s a 25 min journey from Tanah Rata which personally we enjoyed as it was so nice not to be in a touristy area, however if you want to do the trails in the highlands, you should take this into consideration.

A nice, small hostel where it is clear that the owner cares a lot. The rooms were beautifully arranged and pleasant to be in. Very comfortable bed. The small village is vibrant, people are friendly and there are some great food places.

The walls are very thin. We had a dog barking outside from about 3am til sunrise for both the nights we stayed there.

Great, traditional place, perfectly furbished in retro style. We had a double room with an en-suite bathroom and the room was perfect, with everything we needed. The hotel has amazing atmosphere, you feel like at your friend’s. Bryan, who welcomed us, was very kind, gave us all the info and was available all the time in case we would need anything. Kuala Terla itself is a small village half an hour by car from Tanah Rata but it is not a problem at all. Heahtitude has amazing guide book prepared for its guest so you will learn instantly that you can arrange anything you need right next door at the Mini Market (bus to next destination, tours etc.). We have also tried some restaurants, arrange a lift by taxi from Tanah Rata and visited Wednesday market, everything by the recommendation of Heahtitude guide book. And everything worked great. Thanks for amazing stay!

The only thing is that the house is part of quite a living neighborhood so sometimes it can be noisy at night (dogs barking etc.). But that was not a huge issue for us, it was part of the atmosphere.

We spent three nights at Heatithude and very much enjoyed it. It is in a small, authentic town half an hour drive from Tanah Rata. Host Dennis is very helpful (he took us in his own car to the scooter rental company on our first day), room is clean and has a nicely decorated attached bathroom and the terrace on the small river at the back of the house is very nice to sit and drink a cup of coffee from the shared kitchen. We recommend this place!

Really nice and clean hostel nearby the river. We appreciated Staying here with the farmers as neighbours instead of sleeping in those huge and ugly hotels for tourists. Everything was clean and the bed was comfy. No loud noises, just the sound of the river. We recommend coming here with your own rented car to Explore the highlands, here you get your private parking.

The shower was new but not so warm, could have been warmer.

We really enjoyed our stay at Heahtitude! Beautiful surrounds and away from all the crowds, it was a great little hideaway. Loved how the place has been decorated, very retro and also very clean. We had the private shed out the back which was great, enough space and privacy. Really enjoyed the deck out back where we saw gorgeous sunrises. Staff really helped us organise our time well in the area, and even though it’s not near the central town, there was enough in the area to do and places to eat. Easy to organise transport into town or to the surrounding areas too. The general store next door also helped organise for the bus to Penang to pick us up on the way instead of making us trek into town. Overall great stay!
