It was more than the property - it was the overall experience that was amazing! The conservation focussed owner and has family went above and beyond expectations to ensure everyone was happy! They even organised private transportation for us to get there from Sandakan (cheaper then grab) and then personally drove us to Lahad Duta and got us mini bus transport to Tawau. The tours were great and only included their guests. We got to see so much - including Elephants up close. We chose all meals included and the price was a third of the prices I’d seen advertised as package deals. Whatever you need - just ask them!

Fantastic place to explore the wildlife around Kinabatangan River. Jaidi, our guide, had an amazing eye for spotting animals. Kids and adults thoroughly enjoyed ourselves.

I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The food was excellent, with a great variety and quality. Service throughout the property was good—staff were friendly and attentive. I was especially impressed by how eco-friendly the place is; it's clear they prioritize sustainability. A special mention goes to the guide, who was absolutely amazing—extremely knowledgeable and made our experience truly memorable. Highly recommended!

The team here are incredible. Bam helped organise and explain things ahead of arrival and his sons were incredible on the wildlife tours. Spent most of our time Zaide who had great knowledge and went out of his way to give us the best experience. The food was great and the rooms were all we needed. We had such a good time at this special place.

Amazing place. Everything really clean, installations were perfect, amazing breakfast and friendly staff. We had not enough cash to pay everything and todo our trip back to KK , so the owner offered different options to solve it. We did boat tours with them and the staff there was really good as well. As a tip: Bring enough cash to pay as there is no ATM in town.

It was an amazing experience!! We had Ryan as our guide, lucky us! He was always concerned that we could see as many animals as possible, and he could spot animals with great ease. We saw 4 out of 5 of the Big Five thanks to his determination! Terima Kasih Ryan 😊 In addition, the accommodation was very cozy, the staff was friendly, the food was good and there was great communication regarding the transfer! Totally recommend!!👌

This is such an amazing place. The location is amazing surrounded by the jungle and the river. The staff was extremely thoughtful. Their coffee was good. The food was probably the best I have had during my whole Borneo trip. The cruises are great. Saw many wildlife including a wild Orangutan.. So amazing to be there. It has a cosy and homely vibe to it. I would definitely come back if I get the chance.

i love that i can book for the river cruise on the spot.

i love that i can book for the river cruise on the spot. just tell the staff upon arrival they will manage everything for you. my stay didn't include dinner but they still can provide with additional cost of rm20 per person. quite a lot of books regarding wildlife as well in the lounge area. i feel safe and comfy for the nights that i stayed.

A good area for spotting wildlife, but I would recommend...

A good area for spotting wildlife, but I would recommend staying in a smaller family-run accommodation as you get a better personal service and excellent local knowledge. Early morning and late afternoon and night boat trips offer great opportunities to see the wildlife. We enjoyed walking round the local village, but there are not many places to eat out. We had all our meals at the homestay.

Amazing time on the river! This is a great place to stay.

Amazing time on the river! This is a great place to stay. Make sure you visit the Saturday/ Sunday market for a glimpse of local life. We would advise joining as many cruises as possible during your stay, to spot as much wildlife as possible. It seems the tours are all the same just the accommodation varies, so don’t worry about being on a budget. We did a 3D2N tour at sakau backpackers (we believe cheapest on the river) and it was absolutely amazing, comfortable rooms, but the important part was the great river cruises and passionate guides who would do all they could to hunt to find as much wildlife as possible. Out of 4 months in Asia, our time in Sakau and Sepilok has been our favourite.
