Amelia’s Guesthouse

Cherating, Malaysia

 

The Real Cherating, Pahang, Malaysia

Cherating is a sweet little beach village full of friendly people. We are located in Kampung Cherating Lama, which is the original travelers village from the 1980’s. All along the coast between Kuantan and Kemaman, everyone tries to say that their hotel, guesthouse, restaurant is located in Cherating, but they’re not. 

There is Cherating Lama (Old Cherating) and Cherating Baru (New Cherating.) Our village, Cherating Lama has a horseshoe road just north of the Cherating River. Amelia’s Guesthouse is in the middle of this horseshoe road.

Our traditional kampung house is located on an acre of land full of coconut and mango trees like an old P Ramli film.

There are touristy shops and restaurants along the main drag for buying batik clothing, woven products made in Cherating, and other Malaysian souvenirs. We have wonderful schools for learning to surf and paint batik clothing. We have a weaving collective that is next to our house where many of the local woman weave the pandanas leaves. They have been doing this for over 50 years! Food is great is Cherating and you can have everything from casual warung food to trendy restaurants.

Testimonials

Lovely kampung house , exactly as described. A 10 minute walk to the beach through the village. The aircon works wonderfully cooling down the house really fast, the house was clean and welcoming. We were greeted warmly. We will definitely be back if we go to Cherating again
