Stayed 2 days and loved it - great river safaris and heaps of animals to see. Did the night walk in the jungle (remember a good flashlight) the resort has gum boots and long cotton inners/socks to keep those leeches off you! The 3 hr walk to the ox bow lake is an adventure and luckily our guide was excellent... More

We enjoyed two and two days here. The programme means that you get the best out of being in the jungle. The night walk is optional but make sure that you take part, you will be amazed by the creatures of the night that are just beyond the back door on the lodge. It also provides income for local guides... More

Had a wonderful time with our fabulous guide Robert. All staff at the lodge were great, with a great welcome from Nelson. Everything was clean and food was good, and great donuts. We did this as part of the Ultimate Borneo Experience, which I would recommend to anyone.

I visited the Lodge as part of a trip through Sabah. This was the only part of our journey that we booked through a tour company. We did the Sepilok Tropical Wildlife Adventure 2D/2N package. The place really reminded me of being at a cottage or summer camp. The rooms had that cottage charm and were better than some of... More

We stayed here with our 3 children. A lovely warm welcome from Nelson was a great way to start our stay. We had a great time. Loved the friendly staff and the best jungle doughnuts ever! The rooms were really clean and nice. We enjoyed the kids game section so we could sit and look at the river and have... More

Guide and staff were excellent. Saw Pygmy elephants despite doing our evening cruise in torrential rain. The bed was the only downer. I think it was carved out of granite in the 1960's. the other patrons didn't look as tired as us so I can only assume we got unlucky with the room selection. Otherwise, facilities were good. Food was... More

We stayed here as part of a tour organised through STW Adventure, who customised it to suit our needs. Two families of four adults and four children. Noridan, the guide picked us up in Sepilok and stayed with us for the whole time, dropping us at Sandakan Airport two days later. On the way to Bilit we stopped at Goramatong... More

I honestly was bamboozled by the options available when I looked for a company to go with to visit the Kinabatangan River. There are so many options available but the prices were so high and we have been travelling nigh on a year now so the budget was thin. We were in Sandakan and after hours of trawling through the...

We stayed here for 2 nights recently. We were greeted with ice cold towels ( a welcome relief) and lots of smiles. Located by the Kinabatangan River, the view from the restaurant area was beautiful, and we were able to watch the sunrise before our early morning cruise up river. We were also able to arrange an extended river cruise... More

This was a great place to have a jungle feeling. This is a small but very clean and friendly lodge. The food was great and enough. We had 2 great rivercruises and we could watch a lot of monkeys, birds and other animals. Unluckly that we spend only one night there. They also invited us to join them for the... More
