We struck it lucky stumbling across 6 wild Orangutans close to the entrance of the Gomantong Caves. It was a real treat to watch the young ones mess around in the same way human kids might – they also have a naughty streak! #Orangutans #apes #wildlife #Sabah #Borneo #Malaysia

8.8/10 Excellent! (16 reviews)
Helpful staff - Linda manages it all beautifully. Plenty of food - not gourmet but thats not why we were there. Pleasant rooms and bathrooms. It is out in the wild - and it feels like it. Twice a day small groups were taken out in motor boats down the river Kitabangan for the chance to view a variety ...

7.2/10 Good! (9 reviews)
The accommodation and food was nice, we were let down by the tours and communication. The night walk was disappointing as we walked very close to our accommodation, so was not really the jungle walk we were expecting. However the river cruises were good, apart from being let down by our boat breaking ...

We stayed at an alternate property because the advertised one wasn’t ready. However, the owner notified us well in advance. The condo was quiet and the air conditioning worked. We only had 2 towels for 4 people. For the price paid it was a good value and not too far from the airport. Good as a jumping ...
