General Information:

Check out is at 11am.

Early Check in (before 2pm): We do our best to accommodate early check in requests. If we are unable to accommodate a check in prior to 2pm, you are more than welcome to arrive early and drop off your luggage and head out to explore the beautiful area of the Bukit Peninsula. Please note, due to the very small nature of Melali and for the comfort of our other guests, new checking in guests are not able to enter the property and use the facilities until your room is ready.

Late Check in (after 9pm): If you are arriving after 9pm to Melali, we require guests to book a transfer through us. This is due to Melali being difficult to find at night – often taxi drivers get lost and travel time can be doubled. We use local Bingin drivers which will ensure a smooth and quick arrival to Melali.

Children: Due to the small nature of the property, we only accommodate children under the age of 12 when the whole villa is booked exclusively (all three rooms) or during low season times in the pool villa. In this case, please be aware of other guests.

Child Safety: It is guests responsibility to ensure their children are watched and safe at all times. When renting the whole villa or pool villa we URGE guests with children to hire pool fencing to ensure the safely of your little ones. We can arrange this or can recommend a wonderful rental company. When making a reservation guests agree that any injury/accident that may occur at the property during their stay is their own responsibility.

Non – Smoking/Non-Vaping: Smoking & Vaping is strictly not permitted in rooms and all living areas. Smoking is only permitted outside in the garden areas. Should you be found smoking in the room or living areas, we will levy a deep cleaning charge equivalent to at least one night’s accommodation in addition to any accommodation charges.

Transport / Getting around: To get the most out of the area, we highly recommend wheels of some sort. Scooter is the easiest and cheapest mode of transport and our staff have them available for rent. We can also help arrange car hire. If you don’t wish to self drive, local taxis/private drivers are always readily available. If you are not comfortable driving, taxis and private drivers are readily available. Please note, the local taxi company have set prices.
