    Very cozy and quite place. Provide free transfer to town and airport. The staff there will go extra mile to make your comfort their priority. The owner contact me personally to make sure everything fine. A lot of sea and diving activities to offer. Highly recommended for artist, writer and family holiday

    My colleagues and i stayed here two times already and their staff’s hospitality, also known as Mus, NEVER disappointed us πŸ‘πŸ» πŸ‘πŸ». Not to mention the cleanliness of the homestay, all is properly taken care by their staff. Easy to say that the homestay is super clean! The vibes of this homestay also makes you feel like you are living in your own house. For those who are trying to catch ferry to labuan in the next morning, this homestay are very very recommended because it is only 3 minutes away from serasa ferry terminal. A suitable place for one big family to take some rest away from the city. And the price of this homestay is very affordable too!

    Very nice place, with welcoming hosts at a more than affordable price. I enjoyed the ride on the bike to the two beaches nearby. So calm and relaxing places. I definitely recommend a visit.

    Quiet area with good eating places and a provision shop just a 2 mins walk away. Area is close to the beach and water sports activities, and day tours are available here. The room is cosy and clean, with good AC. Housekeeper Yani is really friendly, you can ask her for bookings, taxi, attractions in city and by the coast. Overall, experience was relaxing and comfortable.

    Stayed here last night and this hostel was amazing. Felt so cozy and comfortable and they had the best staff especially Donna who was so kind and she showed us around and the receptionist always went out of her way to make sure we have everything that we need. We regret that we could not stay longer because in that kind of place you can stay for weeks. Thank you so much for our great experience.

    I only stayed one night, but it was really good, and a great price. Staff were welcoming and the facilities and room were great! Was looking for a staff member for about 15 minutes after I arrived but not a big deal.

    People are very hospitable here. The breakfast is also free and the rooms are ery comfortable. You can also bike around or read books, or cook at their kitchen. Poni Homestay gives you a sense of peace and calmness. You can also kayak for free when they take you at Poni Divers or a nearby beach where you could see the sea and watch the sunset. I loved the place and the people there. Bonus, it's also very affordable!

    The Value for the money is great here. Also in the area you don't have a lot of options and Yani will do anything to make your stay the best. There is free breakfast and a shuttle fee super convenient of 10$ per person to go anywhere in the country and a nice restaurant and supermarket around the corner. Great choice and Thank you, Yani!!!

    I am extremely happy to find this little gem in Brunei. Huge credit to Ms Yani for accomodating us with such warmth, generosity and kindness. It doens't get any better than this. Highly reccomended to divers, people who travel to Brunei via ferry and land.

    Poni Homestay is really lovely two storey house with spacious private rooms, good breakfast included and a fully equipped shared kitchen. The homestay caretaker, Yani, is the sweetest and will do whatever she can to make your stay comfortable and enjoyable:)

    I brought my room key! 😭 I kept the key to the police in the ferry terminal. I didn't save your contact, so I inform you like this! Thanks a lot!

    Poni Homestay definitely left a very deep and good impression with their staff's impeccable hospitality. Room was clean and comfortable to stay for 5 nights. Even though it was a shared bathroom and toilet, it was kept clean at all times. We also truly appreciated the availability of a washing machine for us to do our own laundry. I was sick almost throughout the trip and Sasha was kind enough to cook us porridge and honey lemon (even though it was not on the breakfast menu). We truly appreciated her kind thoughts and efforts. Wreck Speciality diving with Poni Diving was awesome as well, with experienced and knowledgeable instructors to guide us throughout. It was a fuss free trip to the dive school each time as transport to and from the homestay were provided. Thank you for showing us the beauty of Brunei, we will definitely be back!

    Been here. Lovely place to chill out since the sitting area upstairs is facing a lush forest. Kitchen was clean and living area with fan and AC. Room only had AC but no fan really needed.

    Dear all, Currently I'm still staying at this place since day one last October till now, and were I was observed is that,I got to know and made friends with Poni stalf which, Muz,Joko & Rizal were I can say is that they are capable to handle this Poni home stay with there professional ability, and I used to bought some sea foods and we did barbeque along with Muz, Joko & Rizal, while we are eating together, and I can feel they are like same to be my own family.aside the current state of this Poni home stay, well cleanliness is time to time monitored by the person in charge, Mus. this place is not only for tourist visitor,but it's also recommended to local people here it self, or an oil & gas worker which working at Hengyi refinery at pulau muarah besar. Therefore I would suggest to our management in KB, to extend my stay here in Poni home stay. Lastly me I say,thanks to Muz, Joko & Rizal for being kind to me during my stay since October,2019 till today. Hope my management will allow my request to some extend to this place Regards. Medwin Cirel

    The best time spent at a homestay ever. The care taker Muz is the best person ever. Super nice crowd. Best experience. Will definitely come next time and stay here. Close to the dive shop as well for added comfort. Thanks for the awesome stay guys.

    We stayed for few nights here. The room was very neatly maintained, away from any noisy roads, a peaceful nature view from our balcony and really a cozy space to settle. If you want to grab a quick bite you can just easily take a 5 mins walk to the nearby restaurants. I'd recommend the cucur selection at sbb. Overall a very pleasant stay and good hospitality from the staffs there. Will visit next time. Cheers
