Just back from 3d/2n trip with friends to the Kinbatangan River. SI tours arranged all and were excellent all round - super organised and efficient with a superb guide, Yahya. SI tours own and operate the Abai River Lodge (night 1) and Kinbatangan Rover Lodge (night 2). At Abai this is the only lodge but at Sukau there are quite... More

The highlight of our stay at Kinabatangan was the amazing wildlife we saw during our stay. Elephants swimming accross the river, bird life, fabulous day and night walks and simply a great wildlife destination. This really made our trip. Compared to other more expensive places: ie: danum valley - the tours here were of a much higher quality for relatively... More

Booked with S.I tours via Kuoni as part of a 3 day tour. Motor boat to the lodge along the river with sighting of wild Orangutans, check in to the lovely lodge, down the river before a great buffet dinner; sighting of loads of animals with fantastically enthusiastic guides (Georg in particular). Just the most fantastic part of our honeymoon,... More

Quite OK place, but the sister place Abai Jungle Lodge is the real pearl (not on TripAdvisor it seems). This place is only reachable by boat through Kinabatangan. We saw a lot of monkeys, orangutans and birds, and at last the pygmy elephants we had been looking for.

Spent 2 nights here as part of the S.I. Tour of the Kinabatangan River. The tour company itself was amazing - our guide Hiro was very informative (they all were) and we saw tons of wildlife - the highlight being a herd of 30 elephants on the river bank - the closest being 2 metros from the boat! The lodge... More

Me and my partner spent two nights here as part of a tour. As soon as you arrive from the boat you are greeted by friendly staff with a welcome drink. The resort itself feels almost like it grows out of the river and the jungle, so atmospheric. The staff were all very friendly and attentive. The rooms themselves are... More

Wonderful place to base exploration of the Sakau region. Rooms are pretty basic but very comfortable, clean. Food was great and the service was fantastic.

The first impression was the colour of the water in the toilet as it was almost as muddy as the river. This place is only accessible by boat and used by a tour company. The cabins are very basic, and there are nice areas to sit around the dining area. The food was quite good and alcohol was available. There... More

We stayed here for a few nights during our two week trip to Borneo. The location of this lodge is excellent; right on the riverfront with nice observation decks and plenty of wildlife to see in the immediate vicinity. The rooms themselves were fine. They were a good size and they were kept very clean. There was no aircon but... More
