Walking along the river promenade was terrific. CyberCity & City Laundry near the hotel were great! We enjoyed the services of Borneo Adventures on our overnight longhouse visit; overall, they delivered!

If you visit Kuching, you must visit Bako National Park. The boat ride there must be one of the most beautiful in the world. The thoughtful boat man slowed down every time he saw me reach for my camera so that I could take a better photograph.

Sarawak a very interesting place to visit, but enjoyed Sabah much more. The resort is a little out the way but local tours are available. The trip was worth it just for the Orangutans and the long house. Be advised to stay away from here in the monsoon season it really is horrid, but im sure pleasant in the dry season.

Kuching is a very peaceful and relaxing place. I enjoyed very much riverside walking at all time night and day.
Sea side is a bit far (one hour by car) and beaches accessible only from hotels.
Sarawak Cultural Village (Pantai Damai area) to be seen but a bit expensive (45 RM).

Sarawak Cultural Village very close, climbed up Mt. Santubong (very tiring but rewarding once you get to the top!). The Dutong seafood restaurant near the hotel is very nice. Visited Bako National Park which was amazing and spent the whole day visiting Kuching, very laid back and peaceful city.

The travel agent located in the hotel building can arrange all sort of tours including visiting the Orang Utan, a day trip to the reserved forrest, offer to the nearby cultural villages, dolphin watch etc etc. The price is reasonable and the staff attitude is very friendly. Recommended seafood restaurant - SeaView Seafood Restaurant.

Quite nice and relaxing location, with a lot of selections to keep you going for at least a week. Astonishing nature and calm environment in contrast to the fuzziness of KL. Highlights: Orang-Utan Rehabilitation Center (at feeding time), Baku (proboskis monkeys) National Park (worth staying overnight as well), Longhouse visit (worth spending a night, under difficult conditions though), Crocodile Farm (at feeding time only!), Sarawak Cultural village(+Damai beach), Sarawak Museum, Gunung Gading Park (preferably if you are lucky to visit the park at the rafflesia blooming period).

The quick walk to the nearby Sarawak Cultural Village was a real highlight, as were the clean beach and affordable leisure facilities for families. For those wanting a real jungle walk experience, there are both a 2 and 4-7 hour trail within 10 minutes of the hotel.
