It was located well next to the Orangutan sanctuary. Had a nice pool, with a scenic walk to get there.
The breakfast was really nice, and changed slightly each day. Rooms were cleaned daily. Our room didn't have AC, and the WiFi didn't. No free water is provided, and it's overpriced to buy. There is a very small shop that sells it cheaper close to the resort.

A casual, rustic lodge with a view over their pond and tropical garden. Swimming pool for guests. Staff very friendly. Rooms ok for a short stay - has all you need. A drive from the town but easy walk to the RDC and nextdoor to the Orangutan and the Sun bear centres. Good value.

Very dated basic room with hard mattress resulting in difficult night sleep. Bathroom needs a renovation as just functional. Only good thing was that we got a room with air-conditioning.
The facility is 30years old and desperately needs the rooms to be renovated, 3 booked 3 night and left after 2 nights as we were feeling unwell with respiratory issues for what i believe was spending time in our room.

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.

One night stay before heading to the Kinabatangan River. Easy walk to the Orangutan + Sunbear rehab centres (both amazing). Was a long walk to my room with many uneven steps along the boardwalk without any offer of help with my bags. I felt reception was quite poor - check in at 3pm and i arrived around 10.40 - was told I could put my bags down the end until check in but no further advice, but if I had rushed could have made the morning session with orangutans (I arrived just after 11 and was too late for the office). There was a night walk on offer but was not told anything about it. At dinner I was told to move from the table I'd chosen overlooking the lake, to any others all looking over the carpark, with no further explanation (apparently for a tour group). Room was quite good - good size, small balcony. Pool ok. Gym equipment was very old / looked unsafe.

Excellent location
