Location is perfect for seeing Sepilok. But the hosts are the best part of the stay. We were welcomed at every corner and they always took pains to help us. We really loved their Pandan drink, and everything about our stay was lovely.

Just 'down the road' from Poring Hot Springs, so a good location for those wanting to spend time at the Hot Springs (warning park closes at 16:00hrs, despite Sabah Parks website stating 17:00 hrs, so we missed the only attraction in town). A quiet location with very friendly host family. Each room had an ensuite but the kitchen and TV room were in common areas.

Best homestay around Mount Kinabalu. The view on Mount Kinabalu is spectacular. We booked for two nights, ended up staying three and we would had stayed longer if it wasn't fully booked. Room was very big and spacious. There was a whole communal kitchen that we could use. Free cold and hot water, you can buy some food from the property such as noodles, eggs, etc. The garden is really well maintened. Owner very friendly.

This place is in a beautiful coastal village is out of the way, which is great! 15 minute drive to kudat, 20 minutes from the tip of borneo. The accommodation is simple, but for the price it's great. The host, Jair, is incredibly helpful and can arrange for meals cooked in the homestay for 15rm each.
