We came to see Orang Utangs in the wild, wishing not to disturb them in their homes and approach passively. We got so much more. This camp is privately run by someone who keeps it natural rainforest and doesn't sell to someone making a palm oil farm from it. The people in this camp TRULY care about the rainforest, the animals, and their visitors. Main woman Linda makes sure you have absolutely everything you need at all times. Of course, you are in the middle of the jungle, so wifi only in the common area (but there is wifi in the middle of the jungle!) and there is no jaccuzi. But once you're over that it is 100% perfection! A true rural jungle experience! We stayed 3 nights and already saw the big 5 the second day! Food was plenty, very very delicious with seafood and meat/ chicken/ and really exciting vegetarian options too! Timings: Arrival day - 1pm lunch, 4pm 2h boat tour on river, 7pm dinner Typical day - 6:30am 2h boat tour, then breakfast, 1pm lunch, 4pm boat tour, 7pm dinner Check out day - 6:30am boat tour, breakfast, 10am check out and boat + bus to airport (takes ca. 2h) Top tip: if you love sweeties like me, bring some buscuits / chocolate / oreos

It's very cost-effective. The owner of the house is very enthusiastic. I highly recommend jungle river. If I come again, I will bring more fishing rods to fish! It happened to be Mr. Afiq's birthday, and they warmly invited us to attend! Thank you very much! We are very happy and happy for the healthy development of this family.

I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The food was excellent, with a great variety and quality. Service throughout the property was good—staff were friendly and attentive. I was especially impressed by how eco-friendly the place is; it's clear they prioritize sustainability. A special mention goes to the guide, who was absolutely amazing—extremely knowledgeable and made our experience truly memorable. Highly recommended!

Do not expect anything fancy but the ratio value/price was excelent. The rooms are simple but beds are comfortable. It is not a lodge by the river (you have to walk for app. 5-10 minutes to get to the river) or in the middle of the rainforest but you get an excellent guides who are proffesionals at spotting the wild animals. We have seen elephants, crocodiles, proboscis monkeys and longtail macaques on our cruise. We havent seen orangutan on our morning jungle walk but the other group saw them by the cave and the staff organised a special trip just for us (for no extra fee) to the cave in the afternoon so we could track them. And yes - they were there! so if you prefer the experience over the quality of the accommodation (dont get me wrong, the rooms are just fine but simple), this is your place.

The 2 nights, 3 days I stayed here were some of the best days of my life! Absolutely incredible - we went for the nature and were not disappointed - we saw the Borneo Big 5 plus TONS more. Our guide Ryan was the best - his eagle eye and determination meant we were able to see all this. The staff were super friendly and catered for my vegan diet, accommodation is very basic but this is perfect for a few days off the grid, rooms were clean and comfy we even had a large Gecko for company :)

This is such an amazing place. The location is amazing surrounded by the jungle and the river. The staff was extremely thoughtful. Their coffee was good. The food was probably the best I have had during my whole Borneo trip. The cruises are great. Saw many wildlife including a wild Orangutan.. So amazing to be there. It has a cosy and homely vibe to it. I would definitely come back if I get the chance.

The kinabatangan river is a lovely setting to see an array of wildlife. There are various companies doing river cruising so it’s up to your budget and what you want to get out of it. Our lodge was simple, clean and spacious but with everything you needed to get an awesome experience. Our guides and boat operators were highly skilled and felt 100% safe on the water. They went out of their way to ensure we got the best experience. The food was exceptional and plentiful. All the staff including Linda, Nein, Tenten, and Sa were very professional.
