We have only stayed at this Resort for 1 night. 1st of Nov – 2nd of Nov 2009 but it is very worth staying longer if you are interested in wildlife, jungle walks, night walks and the Sepilok orang Utan Rehabilitation Center, the Resort is 1 minute walk away from the Center. There is no pool at the Resort. The... more

The location is the main reason we stayed here. It is only 15 minutes easy walk to get into the Sepilok Orang Utan Rehab centre and its viewing platforms. The chalet rooms are comfortable and the air con worked well. There is no swimming pool or other amenities and the lounge upstairs from the dining area is used as a... more

We stayed for one night when visiting the Orang Utang orphanage. From a location point of view it couldn't be better. Right next door and 5 mins walk. Our room though was rather odd. We had a large chalet consisting of lounge/diner, kitchen, bedroom and bathroom - all open plan. However, it was located amongst the staff quarters with no... more

Stayed here for three nights, not in one of the best rooms, hence only 4 stars (we took the cheap option). The gardens are full of orchids and are absolutely fantastic. animals wander in from the orangutan sanctuary next door (we saw pig tailed and long tailed macaques from the restaurant). the food was great, we actually ate there for... more

First....... do not (as I did!) confuse this place with Sepilok Jungle Resort which is just across the road. Once my mistake was sorted.... we found this place had very pleasant gardens and surroundings & helpful/friendly staff, but it falls well short of being a 'luxury resort'. Some of the things needing attention: 1 - only one (greying-white) bath towel... more

My friends and me had a mix feeling about staying here but I'm sure glad we stay here. 2 days of relaxing and just watch the world goes by surely had cured me of any doubt I had before. The food is really good especially in the evening where we had a barbecue and the chicken "satay" is really delicious.... more

Stayed here for one night. Room is clean, but basic. Bathroom is minimal with a hand held shower and no shower curtain. Grounds are nice with orchids planted between bungalows. Food was decent, but overpriced. You are captive at the resort if you don't have a car so you need to make the best of it. They have a buffet... more

I was confusing that time, when i was thinking choosing which resort to stay in sabah, sandakan there. many were told by trip advisor this resort was poor, but some of my friends told me it was excellent. so base on their experience, i just give a try on this resort, with my few colleagues. If things really bad, then... more

Natural, tranquil setting. So close to orang utang rehab centre. We stayed in chalet 11 and it was such a treat to listen to the birds every morning, the sounds of the rainforest where soothing. The food was bbq & night and an assortment of sides an daltenative main dishes- we looked forward to gathering in the dining area to... more

Stayed here for two nights during our journey through Borneo and my husband and I loved it. Our main purpose for booking this resort was the location to Sepilok and we were not disappointed. You are just a 5 minute walk to see the orang-tauns. The resort has beautiful grounds...very very peaceful. As others have mentioned- if you are lucky... more
