The hotel is kept very clean and tidy it’s the tourists that don’t clean up after themselves that creat the mess but the staff are in it very quickly. The room we had was in the fourth floor with a rear facing view but to be honest your in your room to shower and sleep. The beds was comfy shower really good. Water tea and coffee replenished every day and it’s decent size mugs in your room. We ate one evening meal as we like to explore and it was very nice. Decent portions and not over priced. The breakfast was nice it catered for all different cultures and was plentiful. We were a bit disappointed at how people piled their plates and didn’t eat it then went back for more. The pool area is lovely very relaxing and we always found a sun lounger it got quieter mid morning. All the staff are super friendly and always willing to help. It’s about a fifteen to twenty min walk into town where you will see local culture. And it’s a pathway all the way. You’ll be greeted with lots of hello from the locals. This is my honest opinion and obviously make your own conclusions. Would I stay here again YES it’s definitely worth what you pay.

Stunning surrounding forest. You wake up to the beautiful sounds of the birds and can see them from your own porch. Perfect accommodation nestled amongst nature. The staff were so friendly and helpful. The restaurant is amazing for its relaxing natural atmosphere along with an expansive deck to unwind from a busy day and meet other travellers. It is an easy 10 minute walk to the Sepilok elephant and sun bear sanctuaries or if you’re in a rush, a 2 minute Grab ride. I stayed in a private little chalet and it was perfect. I had the cutest black squirrel that would hang out in the tree outside my back porch.

It is one of the most beautiful places I have been. Definitely you feel in the middle of the jungle and sometimes you can see special birds. The pool is fantastic and the walk until there is amazing as well.

Beautiful rooms nestled into a lush jungle setting. Comfortable beds and big rooms. All facilities are clean and well maintained. I really enjoyed laying on the porch hammock listening to the sounds of the jungle and looking for animals. We were lucking enough to spot 4 orangutans at the resort. This was the best hotel we stayed during our 2 weeks in Borneo.

This resort is at the door of one of Borneo's forest. Close to many of its natural attractions and ecosystems, such as the Ourangoutang, Sun Bear, and Probocsis Monkey. Absolutely amazing!
