ChildCare 

Children are welcome to stay at the Sepilok Nature Resort, but there are no specific facilities available. However, the open space, the lovely garden, flora, fauna and the nearby Orang-utan Rehabilitation Centre, will be of interest to children of all ages. 

Dine 

Meals at the Sepilok Nature Resort are served in the main building, connected by plank walks through a variety of trees. These are mostly buffet style with both European and Asian dishes. If you like fish then try the herbed grilled fish. There is also a small bar overlooking the lake.

Relax 

For relaxation, Sepilok Nature Resort has a huge garden with over 150 different species of Asian Orchid, that can take about half a day to explore in its entirety. This sensory experience of being in a garden allows people to connect to their primal state and helps fight stress like any other relaxing leisure activities. Take a walk in the Sepilok gardens and see if it can reverse your attention fatigue that your phones and emails demand.

Experience 

Most travellers stay at the Sepilok Nature Resort to visit the Orang-Utan Rehabilitation Centre, where young Orang Utans are helped by a highly trained staff to re-adjust to a life in the wild. The resort can organise, day treks into the forest for birding, wildlife or nature experience. North of Sandakan is Turtle Island where most travellers spend overnight to watch Turtle come ashore. In the Sukau Rainforest are Borneo's iconic Proboscis Monkey, Orangutans in their natural habitats.
