We had a wonderful stay with Mr Bam’s family. It was Hari Raya and the family welcomed us to join in their festivities for the national holidays, which was so lovely and unexpected. We enjoyed the river cruises with Bam’s son each day and lucked out seeing the Pygmy elephants, proboscis monkeys, an orangutan and crocodile. The rooms are simple and comfortable for the time you need near Kinabatangan River. The food prepared each day was delicious as well. It was nice to know the breakdown of accommodation, food, transportation and activities too. Mr Bam had great communication with us before and during our stay.

It was more than the property - it was the overall experience that was amazing! The conservation focussed owner and has family went above and beyond expectations to ensure everyone was happy! They even organised private transportation for us to get there from Sandakan (cheaper then grab) and then personally drove us to Lahad Duta and got us mini bus transport to Tawau. The tours were great and only included their guests. We got to see so much - including Elephants up close. We chose all meals included and the price was a third of the prices I’d seen advertised as package deals. Whatever you need - just ask them!

Fantastic place to explore the wildlife around Kinabatangan River. Jaidi, our guide, had an amazing eye for spotting animals. Kids and adults thoroughly enjoyed ourselves.

Really amazing experience. Did their 2 night/3 day package and it exceeded our expectations. The food was delicious and they gave really good portions. Would definitely recommend it as a good budget option to do the river cruises and experience the river in general. Very friendly staff who went out of their way to ensure we enjoyed the stay.

The accommodation was clean, the bed comfortable, the food delicious and the whole team that looked after us were nice, helpful and attentive. The internet is only in the dining room, but that didn't bother us. The hot water is running, and you can even see wild animals right from the accommodation. And thanks to Mika our guide and Ten Ten, the boat captain, we saw all of Borneo's big five 👍

What an incredible place, you can do multiple river cruises from here all organised on-site. The guides are very knowledgeable and friendly. The restaurant area overlooks the river which was lovely. The rooms were basic but had air-con and hot water, so was perfect. The rooms were clean and spacious. The food on-site was very tasty and plentiful, would recommend eating here as there are limited options around the area.

I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The food was excellent, with a great variety and quality. Service throughout the property was good—staff were friendly and attentive. I was especially impressed by how eco-friendly the place is; it's clear they prioritize sustainability. A special mention goes to the guide, who was absolutely amazing—extremely knowledgeable and made our experience truly memorable. Highly recommended!

Great location on the river and basic but comfortable rooms. The meals were good thanks to Yanti’s cooking. Yanti also helped to organise transport back to the airport.

Every people are so friendly and nice! Hospitality is great. Due to this hospitality, you feel safe and you can enjoy jangle without fear. Sound of insects, birds and nature things are so great in and around guest house. You use all your seances and you find your own new ability. I went with 74 years old grandfather and 70 years old grandmother. They did not expect such a jangle adventure, but they are so happy about this stay and they enjoyed a lot, but you need to take about 500 steps to the guest house though. Now they have more confidence to try everything. We saw many other European tourist on the river cruse boat. Many of them had grey hair. How old you are, you can enjoy this place and experience if you are open to new things. I went with 4, 8, 11 years old kids too. They enjoyed too. They loved pancake so much. Thank you for meeting allergy request too. Communication before trip was also very nice and quick. Thank you again for the great experience!

A good area for spotting wildlife, but I would recommend...

A good area for spotting wildlife, but I would recommend staying in a smaller family-run accommodation as you get a better personal service and excellent local knowledge. Early morning and late afternoon and night boat trips offer great opportunities to see the wildlife. We enjoyed walking round the local village, but there are not many places to eat out. We had all our meals at the homestay.

Amazing time on the river! This is a great place to stay.

Amazing time on the river! This is a great place to stay. Make sure you visit the Saturday/ Sunday market for a glimpse of local life. We would advise joining as many cruises as possible during your stay, to spot as much wildlife as possible. It seems the tours are all the same just the accommodation varies, so don’t worry about being on a budget. We did a 3D2N tour at sakau backpackers (we believe cheapest on the river) and it was absolutely amazing, comfortable rooms, but the important part was the great river cruises and passionate guides who would do all they could to hunt to find as much wildlife as possible. Out of 4 months in Asia, our time in Sakau and Sepilok has been our favourite.
