10/10 Excellent

Great rural hotel. Wonderful hosts and within easy walk of the sun bear and orangutan centres. Would highly recommend if you love quiet and nature
Delia, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Great place to stay!

Great accommodation with nice pool. Superior room definitely worth it vs standard
2-night trip

6/10 Okay

Setting was lovely and very convenient for OrangUtanRehabilitation and So nbear conservation. Accommodation was mediocre as was food. Bathroom very basic and toilet and sink both leaked constantly.
Gail, 1-night trip

4/10 Poor

Very basic service from hotel staff - ie they give you the room key and that’s it. The room is also basic. While it had clealry been cleaned there were still ants all over the bed. And very noisy - you can hear your neighbours and all movement. Overall ok for a 24 hour stopover to see the few local sights - which are all easy walking distance.
Baljit, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

Great spot for Sepilok just a bit run down

We enjoyed our stay here. Its a perfect location for exploring the sanctuaries and the food is average. There isnt loads around so its definitely fine for the few days you may be here. The grounds are beautiful and rooms were clean and spacious. The place just looks a bit run down but is fine for the price you pay.
Charlotte, 2-night trip

8/10 Good

Rooms a good size and staff helpful
Michelle, 2-night trip

8/10 Good

Rooms are basic but the location to orangutan rehab center, etc and wilderness surrounds is all worth it. Unique jungle experience. Staff and owners were so very helpful and considerate. Excellent cook here! We had a medical episode and the owners and staff couldn’t do enough to assist us! Thank you to Jessica and her staff.
Christina, 3-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Beautiful surroundings

Beautiful surroundings. With fish, turtles and small alligators. Many dogs who want to join you at meal times :) Fish food available if you want to lure them closer. Room was clean and bed comfortable. We had a balcony. Restaurant was good with a fairly large menu. Closed for last orders around 8pm.
Neil, 2-night trip

6/10 Okay

A great stay for visiting the other areas of Sepilok. You get what you pay for. Good food in the restaurant there and the breakfast was better than expected. Excellent grounds for birding first thing in the morning. The closest accommodation to the Orangutan Rehabilitation Center (5 minute walk) but quite far from the Rainforest Discovery Center. We tried to walk to the RDC but got picked up by a black cab on the road side and paid 5 Ringits for the ride.

I recommend!

A beautiful resort set in the jungle. Good breakfast, possibility of purchasing other meals, close to tourist attractions.
Hanna, 2-night trip

4/10 Poor

We did the river trips and stayed for 2 nights The whole experience was amazing. We booked with River Junkie The hotel is laid back and relaxed. The layout is attractive, colonial rooms, well spaced out with balconies overlooking the river, comfortable beds with good linen. Great bathroom, large bedroom tastefully decorated Good food, met many lovely guests. Our guide, Azrol was informative and knowledgeable, saw most of the big five, just not Orangutans😢 I would really recommend this place
Elizabeth, 2-night trip

Orangutan sanctuary and sun bear sanctuary were in walking distance from our resort, which was great. It allowed us to spend the whole day there. A must place to stay to see the orangutans.

10/10 Excellent

Lovely setting, crossing bridges over ponds to get to rooms but an alternative route can be taken if you have suitcases. All staff were friendly and helpful. So close to the orangutan and sunbear sanctuary. Lovely meals at good prices.

Lovely welcome, friendly staff. Convenient walking distance to Sepilok. Breakfast had choice of few options, but toaster needs replaced! A good stay thank you.
