Staff was exceptionally kind and helpful! Location is great for all activities in the area, especially the RDC. Breakfast had several options and the lunch/dinner menus were the most affordable in the area.

The room was clean and comfortable. Staff were friendly and helpful throughout our stay.-arranged a taxi to Proboscis Monkey Sanctuary. The common area was sociable and well set up for meeting other guests. The on-site restaurant served good food. We especially appreciated the view and the peaceful sounds of the jungle at night.

Most people go there to visit the orangutans sanctuary.

Most people go there to visit the orangutans sanctuary. It is excellent . Obviously they cannot guarantee animals will come to feeding platform, but when they do, you could spend a long time simply watching them.

Sepilok was excellent and safe.

Sepilok was excellent and safe. Small view of local life and excellent option to walk to each destination there from the resort we picked. Great way to recover from jet lag and we the jungle before we went out on the Kinabatangan river. Ate at the resorts and the orangutan center was fun outside of just the feeding as the apes stuck around on the railings!! Then the jungle night was was very fun with excellent guides who were very passionate finding us several of the nocturnal monkeys.

Only a 20 minute ride from Sandakan Airport so it’s worthwhile checking out for the day. There is only about 1 whole days worth of activities in the area I.e. the Orangutan Center, the Sun Bear center and then the rainforest discovery Center. I probably wouldn’t recommend more than 1 day in this area unless you want to do some of the extensive forest and mangrove walls that are at the rainforest discovery Center - but they’re more for the dry season rather than the rainy season. I strongly do NOT recommend the probiscus sanctuary back in Sandakan as it’s more of a single species zoo only - it’s much better to get out to the nearby Kandabangan River Area

The only reason to stay a night is to ensure you get to the Orang Utan reserve just after 9am (let the initial queue go down) to watch the 10am feeding. Otherwise, stay elsewhere and drive to the reserve/get a Grab/bus it, and watch the 3pm feed, and then go back to your hotel.

I enjoyed Sepilok very much!

I enjoyed Sepilok very much! I was amazed by the facilities at the RDC, the orangutan, and the sun bear reserve. It is friendly for both children and the elderly. The staff are very friendly. My friend and I really enjoyed ourselves, especially during the night safari. Our rangers did their best to help us spot the animals. I will definitely recommend that my friends visit Sepilok—what a gem in Malaysia!

Sepilok is a must if in Borneo.

Sepilok is a must if in Borneo. The Rainforest Discovery centre is incredible, especially the night walk, as is the Orangutan rehabilitation centre and the Kinabatangan River half-day cruise. There’s also a Sun bear sanctuary, which we are hoping to visit.

Great location 5 min walk to the RDC and 20 min walk to the orangutan and sunbear sanctuaries. We saw squirrels and oriental hornbills from our room. There were also geckos about. Breakfast provided was simple but good. Lunch/dinner available for purchase was okay but not outstanding. Be aware that there are no shops nearby so if you want snacks or other supplies (e.g. to cook in your room) you're best to pick them up in Sandakan before coming to Sepilok.

Great hotel in the heart of the jungle. Also very close to both the sun bear and orangutan sanctuary (within walking distance) which is a big plus. Staff were friendly and attentive always making us feel welcome. Food was good quality given where we were staying. Great priced rooms for the location and nearby sights.

Everything. The surroundings are stunning. The staff is exceptional. A special thanks to Izzy who organised a one-day trip down the Kinabatagan river (275 myr) - very cheap compared to other operators. 5mins to Orangutan rehabilitation centre and sun bear conservation centre.
