Sukau Rainforest Lodge

Nestled in the heart of the Kinabatangan River’s tropical rainforest, Sukau Rainforest Lodge is an award-winning, sustainable lodge offering idyllic surroundings with Borneo’s fascinating wildlife as your closest neighbour. 

If you’ve ever been enchanted by the mesmerising nature programmes of Sir David Attenborough, you might have come across his journey through the rainforests of Sabah. During these iconic BBC recordings, he stayed at Sukau Rainforest Lodge. By opting for this upgrade, you can follow in Sir David Attenborough’s footsteps and experience the rainforest and Borneo’s wild animals up close. 

During your stay, you can look forward to residing in one of the lodge’s 40 beautifully appointed rooms. These rooms blend traditional Borneo aesthetics with modern conveniences and they all offer breathtaking views of the river or the lush jungle surroundings. Each room is equipped with amenities such as air conditioning, coffee and tea-making facilities, and en-suite bathrooms with showers, hairdryers, and complimentary toiletries. 

The lodge’s facilities allow you to combine relaxation with adventure. You can indulge in a soothing foot treatment or take a refreshing dip in one of the two pools while absorbing the surrounding atmosphere. Adventurous jungle trails invite exploration on your own. For those wishing to delve deeper into the natural world, the lodge offers lectures from their own wildlife expert, sharing captivating stories and facts about Borneo’s unique wildlife. 

Local cuisine can be savoured on the lodge’s semi-open wooden veranda, where the restaurant serves an exquisite menu with uninterrupted views over the Kinabatangan River. Just adjacent to the restaurant, there is a wooden deck where you can enjoy a drink and watch the sun set over the jungle as the sounds of the night slowly take over.
