Hi! I’m Viannie – a proud Lotud native from Sabah, homestay builder, and community uplifter. I love creating cozy, meaningful stays that reflect the warmth, creativity, and culture of our people. I manage StayWell Homestays, a growing network of unique, locally rooted accommodations across Sabah – from sunset-view villas in Kota Kinabalu to kampung-style bungalows in Tuaran. Each space is thoughtfully designed with heart and practicality (yes, I helped build those bamboo walls and pallet lounges myself!). 🌱 Passionate about sustainability & supporting small homestay owners 🧡 Rooted in local culture, committed to meaningful travel experiences 🤝 You’ll arrive as a guest, and leave as a friend. I’m always nearby or just a message away if you need help during your stay – or want local tips on where to find the best Mee Tuaran, sunset views, or hidden village gems.

About the Neighbourhood – Kampung Life in Tuaran Our homestay is located in a quiet and friendly village neighborhood in Tuaran, where life moves at a peaceful, easy pace. You’ll be greeted with genuine smiles from neighbors, the sound of roosters in the morning, and the occasional scent of woodfire cooking drifting through the air. 🌿 What Makes It Special: • ✅ Safe, quiet residential area with a strong sense of community • 🚶‍♂ Surrounded by local homes, fruit trees, and village gardens • 🛵 Just a short drive to Tuaran town, local eateries, and supermarkets • 🍜 Close to famous food spots like Mee Tuaran stalls, Tamparuli Bridge & native markets • 📸 Great for walks, cycling, or experiencing real Sabah village life You’re not in a touristy area here — you’re in a real kampung, where kids still play outside, and neighbors still wave hello. It’s the perfect escape for those who want to slow down, reconnect, and enjoy authentic local living with a touch of creative comfort.
