  • Within walking distance of the famous Sepilok Orangutan Rehabilitation Centre

  • The accommodation is basic, but the rooms do have air-conditioning and overhead fans

  • The main building and restaurant have lovely views towards the rainforest


Sepilok Nature Resort has 23 timber chalets, set around a natural lake and surrounded by verdant gardens and lush rainforest. The resort's gardens are huge, with an impressive collection of exotic plants, including 150 different species of orchid and lots of fruit varieties.

Like much of the accommodation in Borneo, the rooms at Sepilok Nature Resort are fairly basic. However they do have air-conditioning and overhead fans, as well as en-suite bathrooms and verandas which either look over the lake or into the rainforest. There are two duplex bungalows, which have a downstairs bedroom and upstairs living room, and the design is also a bit more polished versus the standard chalets.     

There is a restaurant in the resort's main building, serving local and international dishes. There is both indoor and outdoor seating, and whilst the resort does not have a swimming pool, there is a deck with some sunbeds.

Top tip:

An encounter with the beautiful Orang Utans or ‘wild men of Borneo’ is an unforgettable experience, they are so bizarrely human and quite adorable!
