Visitors will be kept with their host families in the village of Seri Tanjung, which will allow them to capture the real essence of village life in a new and distinct way.  You will surely be mesmerized by the simple lives of the village people, living in traditional houses surrounding all sorts of green flora.  The accommodations are provided and managed by their respective owners, which means each house defines the owner’s personality and offers a different perspective into their village life.
