Mantanani Island
Located in Mantanani Island, GreenHouse Lodge provides accommodation with access to a garden. The property boasts reusable plastic materials, using energy-saving lighting and conserving rainwater.

From the moment we arrived, we absolutely loved our stay here. If you're looking for a beautiful, eco-friendly retreat created and run by people who genuinely care about the environment, this is the place for you.
Fred, the owner, built this Ecolodge himself with a clear mission: to be 100% sustainable. Every aspect of the property reflects that goal—everything is green, circular, and thoughtfully designed. The lodge is impressively clean, well-maintained, and full of character.
The rooms are spacious, freshly renovated, and each comes with its own private bathroom. We stayed in the Double Room, which was very comfortable and equipped with a fan—perfect for keeping cool at night.
All the essentials are available on-site, including kayak and snorkeling gear rentals, which made exploring the area super convenient.
One of the absolute highlights of our stay was the food. Sook Peng, Fred’s wife, is not only an incredible cook but also a truly warm and welcoming person. Sharing meals with her was a joy, and her cooking made every meal memorable.
There are also cozy hammocks for relaxing, and the peaceful atmosphere made it easy to unwind.
We couldn't recommend this place more highly—it's a rare gem built with heart and purpose.
Oh, I was almost forgetting, both land and transport are organized by the Fred and Sook Peng and everything went super smooth!
Terima kasih Fred and Sook Peng!

This has become one of my favourite destinations during my trip to Sabah, Borneo. The moment we arrived we were warmly welcomed by the staff and were offered refreshments like tea, fruit and other nice sweets.
The room was spacious and beautifully designed and it made me feel at home. I also appreciated that the staff already turned on the AC which made the arrival process even better.
The sunrise and sunset were beautiful and wish we could have spent another night if it was up to my travel itinerary. Moreover, we were able to do our laundry here and the staff folded and ironed it without any surcharge, such kindness!
The food was very good including both dinner and breakfast, it was like my grandma would have made it.
Overall, I would come back here again if I am ever given the opportunity.
Bilit
Accessible only via a 600-step staircase, the property is located adjacent to the Kinabatangan Forest Reserve. Guests will have access to some of Sabah's most unique wildlife. Boat cruises and jungle-trekking activities are included in every stay. I cannot rate this place highly enough. Firstly the staff were the nicest bunch of people, who genuinely care that the guests have a great trip, and are passionate about the environment and the wildlife. Secondly, this is the only place in the area actually inside the jungle, rather than on the river. And that matters because you're much more likely to see an Orang utan in the wild staying here. We were lucky enough to see one, and the guys running the place were overjoyed for us. It was a truly breathtaking moment. And we saw monitor lizards and Hornbills causally wandering/ flying around. The guys running the place could not do enough for us. Also the food was great, and included. Travel is quite a hobby for me, I have been travelling the world regularly for over 30 years now and I have stayed in a lot of places, from luxury hotels to eco-resorts etc. This rates as high as any experience I have had anywhere. I wish there were more places run this well and with this much passion in the world.

We stayed at this lodge for one night. It's very nice and comfortable lodge especially the room with balcony. It's beyond my expectations. Very clean and tidy room. The toilet is also very clean, shower and heater works properly and great.
The view from this lodge is very amazing although mount Kinabalu is not at our side but the view is still very nice and amazing.
Overall, Bayu Senja Lodge ( especially the room with balcony ) is very nice, good and comfortable to stay. The management should build more room like this in the future. Once the lodge canteen starts operating, the lodge has become much better place to choose for staying.

Beautiful place in a great location. We liked the chalet as well as the garden and really enjoyed the walk up to have breakfast in the nearby hotel.
The absolutely beautiful, clean and comfortable chalets, the tranquil natural setting with wild birds and other animals to watch, the fig trees growing around the wooden walkways, the food, the ideal proximity to the Orangutan and Sunbear rehabilitation centres!
The location, view on the jungle. Quiet, nice wooden bungalows Free shuttle to Orang utans sanctuary and Rainforest Discovery Centre. Terrace overlooking the jungle
Customer services are good. I appreciate that they provide a shutter van to the mall. Upon request, they arrange a shutter for me to the airport. As a solo traveller, it is helpful to provide such services for me.
It has free shuttle to and from the jetty which is a bonus. Rooms are big and has a balcony. Breakfast is good with adequate varieties. The breakfast room is on the top floor and offers a good view of the city. The staff try their best to please us.
I had a really nice stay at Paganakan Dii. The staff were incredible friendly and always ready to help. You can book tours with them. Three times a day there is a free shuttle bus to Sepilok. The food there is really good and they also offer vegetarian options.
I had the whole dorm for me alone. Nice big wooden longhouse with mosquito nets. Basic but good. The food they serve is also nice and the have free shuttle busses to sepilok conservation centre. Staff is very friendly and helpfull.
Immerged in the nature, beautiful wooden platform with a stunning view of the rainforest from where I could spot a couple of hornbills. Good food and acceptable prices, water dispenser. Helpful staff. Useful free shuttle 2/3 times a day to go and back from/to Sepilok rehab centres (orangutans and sunbears).
