A review of the Sepilok Forest Edge Resort, Borneo
The stylish eco-chalets are made with woods that have been recycled from Chinese houses. Furnishings are tasteful and rustic and have been inspired by Malay culture. There is a range of styles and sizes, with some overlooking the lake and some the jungle.
We stayed in the superior chalet, which was quite honestly amazing. It had a double room, a lounge, kitchenette, 2 bathrooms and second bedroom with 3 four-poster beds. It was far more luxurious than we had ever expected and had more space than needed.

We opted for the top-end accommodation and appreciate that this wouldn’t be an option for everyone. However, for travellers on a budget, the resort has a longhouse with bunk beds. This is obviously far more basic and you have to share, but still a very good choice because of the jungle setting and proximity to Sepilok…
