Wonderful! Credits to Hannah and Winnah who were so caring from checkin to our departure! We lost our luggage and they were so caring. Working with the airport staff and asking for updates and when we finally got the luggage back, they were so helpful and checked in with us to make sure we were okay! They also gave us great recommendations on where to buy the essentials when we got there without our luggage and we also wanted to mention the restaurant staff was very attentive as well. Thank you so much for the care and we can't wait to visit again!

Perfectly adequate clean room, with air conditioning and fan, as well as tea and coffee making facilities. Good simple buffet breakfast. Within easy walking distance of the Orangutan and Sun Bear sanctuaries, the Rainforest Discovery Centre and other hotels and restaurants. Had no problem picking up a cab on Grab whenever we needed to go further afield or just wanted to avoid the heat!

The team at the Losge were so helpful. We were a day late due to a missed connection and we wanted to head into the jungle and they arranged everything for us and even took a day off of our booking to facilitate a stay with their sister lodge at the Kinabantagan River. As you can see the breakfast was fabulous.

I found all the staff very helpful. The location is good for Orangutan, Sun Bears and the Rain Forest. The only elemwnt that was poor was I needed to amend my booking via Expedia and I still ended up being charged for one additional night, the cost was minimal, but that's not the point.

Very conveiniently located for bird livers as only 600m to Rainforest Discovery Centre. Room is well designed with outsidet but secured toilets which is great for us as we could leave our cameras there during the night to avoid to ac condensation. Staff is hepful, food is ok. Only minus is the steps to reception and room.

This hotel is in a great location for exploring the surrounding attractions. Just a few minutes walk from the orangutan and sun bear sanctuaries, and even closer to the rainforest centre. The staff are very friendly and helpful, and the rooms are comfortable. The breakfast food was great, the dinner food was average. The nearby restaurants are overpriced and food is sub-par (except the one in the Rainforest Centre which I found to be really good). But you can order Grab delivery to the hotel so many options are available.

Great experience. The staff were very kind and attentive. The property is simple but clean and well maintained. You can tell they take pride in ensuring their guests are happy and their property is presentable. Meals at the restaurant were very good and affordable.

Siamo andati a dormire li con un bimbo di 5 anni, è stata un’ Esperienza meravigliosa! Stanza davanti alla giungla, grande e pulitissima, pace e tranquillità, cibo ottimo, personale cordiale e preparato. Posizione ottima! A 10 minuti a piedi si arriva al centro di conservazione degli oranghi e agli altri resort per provare anche gli altri ristoranti. Consigliatissimo!

We arrived here after spending some time in kinabatangan river. We decided to book for two nights: Day 1: We checked out the sunbear rehabilitation center. Day 2: We dedicated the whole day checking out the orangtuan sancturary. Both locations are 10 minute walk from the hotel. The road doesn't have side walks but its a nicely paved road and the drivers are safe and go slow for pedestrias. The hotel is also next door to the discovery rainforest park, we didnlt check it out but we been told is awesome and includes suspension bridges. That being said the hotel is located in a convinient location. They have a resturant on premise, another resturant/cafe across the street and a very photogenic resturant by the orangutan sancturary called lake bistro or on the lake, recomment going there for a drink or lunch. All in all you can easily spend two or 3 nights here and not feel rushed. The rooms are very clean and beds are very comfortable. The customer service is superb and I highly recommend this hotel. It is also 20 min from Sandakan airport and you can easily hire a car with the grab app with. Is cheaper then arranging transportation via taxi or through the hotel.

The resort was amazing, tranquil and relaxing. Our cabin was fab with a sunken bath, we even had a resident fruit bat above our door ( cabin14) right round the resort away from the restaurant area. The sounds from the rainforest made it so peaceful. We spent 4 nights but probably 3 would have been enough to see everything.
