You get there and your first thought is wow this is so cool. Then after a while you think, wait this is kinda like camping. But then you come to the conclusion that camping is awesome and this place has so much to offer in its little package. The food is a little limited, especially with fruits and veggies. The room itself has enough space but needs more creative solutions for storage. Bedroom turnover is impractical but we would have appreciated more bathroom supplies. We really enjoyed the beach, less so the pool. Overall it was well worth it despite my nitpicking. ![Always cats nearby in Sarawak](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/6301AE6AD623E69128EF79B5D8C0DEB78CB11A4E1670668850814.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Upper pool](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/0C247491AABE33B8785AA2AA9D91C8FFCBA40DE91670668864445.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Aerial view of beach](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/39B006B9660D2DDC13793B742890F8A02D2B55991670668831182.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Lower pool](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/E87E07B704A4E47BD11601656037DD56FDD45B651670668866693.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### James Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2022 ### 8/10 Good #### Laura Aug 15, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Super relaxing stay at the culvert. There were a few minor quibbles like I wish the food options were more varied and with more vegetables! And there was such a small amount of storage for our items - I wasn’t expecting lots but a few books would have helped. That aside, it was honestly such a relaxing comfortable environment with great facilities and super friendly staff. Easy access to the Damai area with Kampung Budaya Sarawak and the food court, and not too far to Kuching. Would definitely stay again and would recommend to others. ##### Laura Stayed 4 nights in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Li Keow Anna Jun 4, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities I like the concept of staying in the round room and it’s so special and interesting!

Vraiment rien a redire tout était parfait. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/EBD7CA338108B7D274671E93526A13F3CC551B2D1709174919885.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/6208DE5D3F57BF834730C743D5F8E03DDBFEE31C1709174919340.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/28CCC363EEB3E1F9C6DBBC832DB79915D54868F91709174919772.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/B427991197FFAE372980AE7B5E903A6970ED15391709174920479.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Axelle Stayed 3 nights in Feb 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Simon Nov 26, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The Culvert is a lovely, peaceful resort on the coast with great views out over the bay. It is clean and well looked after and the staff are very friendly and kind. It is very hot and there are mosquitoes so long sleeves and lightweight trousers advisable. Only marginally cooler at night so no need for warm clothes. All the cabins have aircon. The sun is VERY hot, this is not a sun bathing resort. The UV index was saying Extreme so pack strong suncream, especially if you go on any excursions. Bottled water is freely available. The restaurant food is very good, not too expensive. There aren't many veggie options, but the staff were willing to adapt some dishes to accomodate. The pools are clean and well cared for, and very welcome in the heat. Apparently there are salt water crocodiles in the area (though we didn't see any) so the pool is probably the safer option! It's around 100/150 ringetts for a cab from the airport (2023) though there may be additional fees per person. The city of Kuching is about an hour away if you need more excitement and shopping. The food there is super cheap and very good. A great place to chill if you want a quiet holiday :-) ##### Simon Stayed 11 nights in Oct 2023 ### 2/10 Terrible #### ting Sep 14, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service no lamp in the room, difficult to go to bathroom because no floor in the room for walk. ##### ting Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Najwa Nov 2, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Thank you for treating my parents nicely during their anniversary. ##### Najwa Stayed 1 night in Oct 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Jan 3, 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities This hotel was just something very different and we loved it! We've told all our friends about it since we got back! There's not much space in the room admittedly, which completely suited us, but for some people this may be a struggle, particularly if you have lots of luggage or children. If you're travelling light and solo/couple, this place is lovely. There is a nice infinity pool. Breakfast was ok. It was nice being in the tranquil jungle. It is quite a long drive from the airport, but was relatively cheap to get there. Overall, a few good experience for a few days! ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Nov 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Mitchell Dec 31, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Cosy Room Small but cosy rooms.

Bring along insect repellent. ##### Miss Stayed 4 nights in Nov 2019 ### 4/10 Poor #### SML Oct 17, 2019 Disliked: Property conditions & facilities It more suitable for couple or youngsters, as it was not kids friendly, as the safety for kids is low. My youngest son fall from pool while sitting on the side and high on floor full of sharp stones, luckily no needle need for the wound. As for the breakfast, it was expensive for my kid as I pay my 5 years old boy breakfast and not much choices to take. It's a place not suitable for family with kids, but might be good for couples. ##### SML Stayed 1 night in Oct 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jared Oct 6, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Unique little spot Unique little spot.

Arrived to concrete capsule “hotel” after rain. Concrete “drainpipe-rooms” were damp and smelling mouldy. We had booked three nights, discussed dampness issue with hotel management after first night. Manager contacted Expedia/hotels.com to cancel and refunded two nights. Credit to manager. We learnt concrete capsules are not sealed against environment. Unless correct protection is applied to concrete this is worrying for structure ..... and health. If you want a gimmicky experience, with a 6 square meter “capsule”, no convenience (e.g. no table, no chair, no clothes rack, etc) no privacy and very few options for food or transportation but pay a premium price for Borneo accommodation The Culvert is for you. We experienced and at first opportunity checked out. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Jul 21, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities We like the unique architecture and landscape, but we didn’t like the fact there is quite a bit of mosquitos around... ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Jul 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller May 22, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Pretty good stay. Loved the infinity pool, steps to the beach and the massage I got from the spa. Only dislike is the food served at the restaurant. Menu is limited. Needs local cuisine incorporated in the menu too. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 5 nights in May 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Roxana Apr 27, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Nice concept, but execution can be improved The concept of hotel is very cool, feels nice and trendy. The staff was helpful to arrange alternative pick up for us to take us to the Cultural Village when the local driver of the hotel was busy. Few things that were not to my liking: Breakfast was poor - even basic yogurt and granola was missing. Food overall was bad quality, they are doing a western type food, but they dont know how to cook it. I asked for a medium steak, I got a burned one. I d suggest to switch the focus to nalaysian food, or do a fusion, the western food just doesn’t work. Seating in the restaurants is terrible, they have wooden benches, not comfortable at all- you eat and you leave, not a place to relax. The pool by the beach was kind of closed, we couldn’t figured that one out. Also the airport transfers are slightly expensive, we got a local driver for half the price that the hotel was asking ##### Roxana Stayed 1 night in Apr 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### JuliaKon, Kuching Feb 18, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Relaxing,clean and beautiful place to stay ##### JuliaKon Stayed 1 night in Feb 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Feb 16, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities tout est super !!!! il faut absolument découvrir ce lieux ! ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Feb 2019 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Hotels in Toulouse](https://www.expedia.ca/Blagnac-Airport-Hotels.0-aTLS-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Best Western Premier Empire State Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/New-York-Hotels-Best-Western-Premier-Empire-State-Hotel.h69621866.Hotel-Information) > > [Nomi Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Dysart-Et-Al-Hotels-Nomi-Resort.h15284314.Hotel-Information) > > [3 Star Hotels in Vancouver](https://www.expedia.ca/3Star-Vancouver-Hotels.s30-0-d178315.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Dominion Hill Country Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/Digdeguash-Hotels-Dominion-Hill-Country-Inn.h20193453.Hotel-Information) > > [Comfort Inn & Suites Lake George](https://www.expedia.ca/Lake-George-Hotels-Comfort-Inn-Suites.h1640103.Hotel-Information) > > [All Inclusive Resorts and Hotels near Cayman Islands](https://www.expedia.ca/Destinations-In-Cayman-Islands-All-Inclusive-Hotel.0-0-d33-tAllInclusiveHotel.Hotel-Filter-Destinations) > > [Sandos Caracol Nature Resort & Water Park All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Playa-Del-Carmen-Hotels-Sandos-Caracol-Eco-Resort-All-Inclusive.h919643.Hotel-Information) > > [Blue Angel Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Cozumel-Hotels-Blue-Angel-Resort.h5386907.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Alexandria](https://www.expedia.ca/Alexandria-Hotels.d6292425.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Fort Lauderdale Marriott Harbor Beach Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Fort-Lauderdale-Hotels-Fort-Lauderdale-Marriott-Harbor-Beach-Resort-Spa.h21880.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from Frankfurt (FRA) to New York (JFK)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/fra/jfk/frankfurt-to-new-york) > > [Flights from Montreal (YUL) to Queenstown (ZQN)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yul/zqn/montreal-to-queenstown) > > [Flights from Goffs (YHZ) to Cancun (CUN)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yhz/cun/halifax-to-cancun) > > [Flights from Vancouver Intl. to YMQ-All Airports](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yvr/ymq/vancouver-to-montreal) > > [Air Canada Toronto (YYZ) to Regina (YQR) flights](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flight-routes/air-canada-from-pearson-intl-to-regina-intl/ac/yyz/yqr) > > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Osbourn (ANU)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/anu/toronto-to-st-johns) > > [Flights from Galveston (GLS) to Toronto (YYZ)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/gls/yyz/galveston-to-toronto) > > [Flights from Alberta (YQL) to Cranbrook (YXC)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yql/yxc/lethbridge-to-cranbrook) ### Cars > [Car rentals in London](https://www.expedia.ca/Car-Rentals-In-London-Intl.d5593177.Car-Rental-Guide) > > [Budget Car Rentals In Duncan](https://www.expedia.ca/Budget-Car-Rentals-In-Duncan.d6058388-c39.Car-Rental-Guide-Suppliers) ### Activities > [Things to do in Peterborough](https://www.expedia.ca/Things-To-Do-In-Peterborough.d6134326.Travel-Guide-Activities) > > [Things to do in Barrie](https://www.expedia.ca/Things-To-Do-In-Barrie.d6692.Travel-Guide-Activities) > > [Things to do in Brampton](https://www.expedia.ca/Things-To-Do-In-Brampton.d6807.Travel-Guide-Activities) > > [Things to do in Chattanooga](https://www.expedia.ca/Things-To-Do-In-Chattanooga.d827.Travel-Guide-Activities) ### Packages > [Miami Vacations](https://www.expedia.ca/Miami.d178286.Destination-Travel-Guides) > > [Hi-Knoll Driving Range & Mini-Golf](https://www.expedia.ca/Hi-Knoll-Driving-Range-Mini-Golf-Vancouver.d553248621532863610.Vacation-Attraction) ### General > [Visit Acheson](https://www.expedia.ca/Acheson.dx714970594804809728) > > [Visit Birkenhead](https://www.expedia.ca/Birkenhead.dx4571)
