Sepilok Nature Resort

Hidden amongst a veritable treasure trove of tropical plants, grasses, huge trees  and spectacular orchids in bloom, the quaint bungalows of the Sepilok Nature Resort are within walking distance of the world-famous Kabili-Sepilok Forest Reserve, precious home of the last wild Orang-Utans of Northern Borneo. Combining rich traditional style with contemporary luxury, Sepilok Nature Resort is  the ideal starting point for most other wildlife land destinations in Sabah such as the fauna rich Kinabatangan River and the surrounding Sukau area. Sepilok Nature Resort also offers the perfect setting for relaxing after a long plane trip, before  continuing on a diving holiday to Lankayan.

Accomodation

Fitted with wooden furnishings, each room is equipped with air conditioning, a TV and a balcony with views of the natural surroundings. The en suite bathroom offers shower facilities.

Dining

Dining in Sepilok brings you double pleasure. You get to feast your stomach with sumptuous meals and at the same time feast your eyes with view of the lake and  the beautiful rainforest as the backdrop.  At night during dinner, instead of being serenaded with violins or acoustic guitar, you’ll be serenaded with sounds of nocturnal creatures and insects of all kinds.

Recreation

To fully appreciate the ancient rhythms of the forest, the best thing one could do is to stay at least  a few days in Sepilok Nature Resort, a most beautiful compound bordering on the protected area  (it is actually not uncommon to have Orang Utans or pythons wandering around among the  chalets) and perfectly integrated with the surrounding forest.
