Sepilok Nature Resort Sandakan Malaysia. Best Hotel Deals & Reviews

Description:

The resort is a beautiful compound bordering the protected area and blends in perfectly integrated with the surrounding forest. Set in a spectacularly landscaped private area of manicured lawns and rolling hills, the resort is home to 24 timber chalets. The front office, tour information desk and restaurant are all integrated into the resort's main building, built with charming traditional wooden interiors reflecting a truly tranquil setting and overlooking the green shimmering curtain of lowland tropical rainforest canopies. A view of the beautiful natural lake at the heart of the resort is a sight not to be missed.

I stayed there last week & I must say this has been one of my worst experiences at a resort ever. I normally don't write reviews but felt I ought to warn people so they don't make the mistake of staying there. From the moment we checked-in, they tried ripping us off by trying to sign us up for these over-priced tours. For example, a "guided" walk to the Orangutan sanctuary nextdoor for $45 (which you can basically do on your own). The tour lady at the resort was persistent to sell this, till she managed to annoy us. The room was basic. They call it a luxury resort & we had to request for even things like towels, soap etc. We were served a breakfast the first day which was a plate of dried sausages & an egg. Only realised later on they charged us $30 for each! Upon checking-out, they also added in some beers on the bill which we didn't consume. But what topped it all was that we found out the owner of this resort regularly throws late-night parties at the resort. So we had a big crowd of people making a noise, loud music & blaring speakers all night. This at a "nature" resort where you expect peace & quiet. When we spoke to the manager about this, he just shrugged & walked off without an answer. All in all, a very negative experience which totally ruined my trip. Later on heard that a few of the other resorts nearby are much better & even nicer.
