The Cave - Adults Only

Friendly hosts, and accommodation is clean and well equipped. The set up is creative, The Cave itself serves as reception/self check in and the location of the dorms. The private rooms are located in one of two separate apartment buildings a few hundred meters from The Cave and are domestic apartments that have been divided into separate rooms. You have access to a shared living space, kitchenette, balcony and bathroom. Breakfast is available at a small additional fee, which consisted of toast with jam and peanut butter, hard boiled eggs, fruit and coffee or tea. The location of the property is slightly out of the centre in a complex of around 8 apartment blocks. These buildings do have restaurants and shops but you can easily walk into the main town taking perhaps 10 minutes (downhill) and 15 on the return (uphill). The bus station is also only 10 minutes walking distance.

No reason at all to not stay at the property but be aware: There are a lot of instructions to convey the above set up, these are clear with short videos and diagrams but a lot of information nonetheless and a number of steps to take before accessing your room. We are not sure if security is a big issue in Tanah Rata but all the doors in the apartment building have steel security doors before the front door which is secured with a padlock.It also appeared to be common practice at both The Cave and the apartment we stayed in to padlock the security closed when you were inside, this worried us slightly from the perspective of fire safety.

I don't understand why not everybody is staying here. Cha Ren is the best!! She will make you feel like home

The owner is amazing! So helpful and sweet. Also really nice place where a lot of locals live with a lot of restaurants. Max 10 minute walk to the main tourist street, so good location.

Cha Ren was so sweet!! She gave me recommendations for things to do in the area and after a tour I did, she made my friend and I tea. I had been traveling over a month and wanted somewhere home like and that was exactly what I got here!!! Beds were confy and shower was hot! I am so sad I didn't get to try the breakfast due to leaving too early.

Nothing!
