    We enjoyed everything about our stay. Check in process was easy, even though we arrive late. Communication with lodge staff before and during our stay was very good. Everyone at the lodge was very kind and helpful, they will recommend what activities best suit your interests when visiting the kinabatangan river. The excellent tour guides will make your experience in this incredible place even better. Room was comfortable and clean. Great breakfast. Highly recommended and we hope to comeback one day.

    The breakfast was basic. the night walking tour was cancelled in the middle of it due to rain, which is fair enough as that presents some dangers but I would have thought that the lodge would not charge the full amount- at least a partial charge considering the only input is the tour guides cost and he lives at the lodge.

    The Orangutans in the trees outside my room each morning were amazing. The staff were friendly and the food was good. Over the weekend I saw a good variety of wildlife and I liked the smaller, more family feel of the lodge - it is basic accommodation but you're there for the wildlife, and the price is reflective of what you get.

    The lodge is very isolated in the jungle, a short walk from the kinabatangan river. The lodge offers lunch and dinner for RM35 as there is no other food places around. The lodge is very homely place and they also offers activities like hikes, boat rides and night walks. We spent the whole time doing activities with them. The area is ideal for wildlife watching. Asslan was an amazing guide! He spotted everything for us and provided cool infos. The little chalets are very comfy - good bedding, hot water, very cosy!
