The host is kind and understanding. The host is willing to wait until midnight to hand over the house keys. The transaction is also very easy, after booking, the host immediately chats. Regarding the house, the house is very neat and clean. The condition of the house exceeds expectations. The house is very comfortable, fast wifi. The location is close to the city and several attractions. Overall, I am very satisfied and will come back again another day.

The property was very clean and welcoming. The room was equipped with a good air conditioner, a comfortable bed, and a hot shower with easy temperature control. Like many Southeast Asian accommodations, the shower is located near the toilet, but the floor dries fairly quickly. The Wi-Fi worked well, allowing me to work and attend business calls without any issues. Self check-in with no staff on-site, but access was easy and the team is responsive via WhatsApp if needed. I recommend this accommodation because it's actually located in the more modern part of town, with all the necessary amenities nearby—supermarkets, restaurants, and cafes. The city center didn’t have much to offer in comparison

    Absolutely everything!! The accommodation took our breath away walking in - so beautiful! Had everything we needed and more in the most stunning location. The lodge was decorated beautifully and the building itself was in keeping with the natural surroundings. The food and drinks were delicious and the staff were wonderful. Wished we could have stayed longer.

    I recently stayed at Aecotel and was pleasantly surprised by the soft and high-quality linen in the room. The accommodations were well-equipped with everything we needed, making our stay comfortable. The standout, however, was the excellent customer attention from the owner. He went above and beyond to assist us in finding great restaurants and recommending places to visit. Additionally, the flexibility they showed by allowing us to leave our bags there added a thoughtful touch to our overall positive experience.

    Excellent place. Wonderful design. Big and modern room. Food was just perfect and the staff super friendly. Would highly recommend to visit this place if you're staying in Sepilok. We've been there for two nights but would recommend at least three so that you have still some time to enjoy this relaxing accommodation itself. Thanks for having us.

    My husband and I stayed at Sepilok Nature resort for the first couple of nights of our trip around Malaysia and it was one of our favourite stays. The hotel itself is really beautiful, the rooms around the lake are all lovely, food and drinks are good considering where it is (quite remote) and it's 2 minutes from the orang-utan sanctuary. The staff are super helpful and friendly and they also organised a great river trip for us which was another highlight of our holiday - we would highly recommend staying here
