Nipah Lodge

'The best kept secret in Borneo....'

Nipah Resort is surrounded by nature with mangrove paths. A perfect retreat place to get away from busy hostels and lodges. It is the only accommodation within minutes to Labuk Bay Proboscis Monkey Sanctuary.

The view from each private chalet balcony and dorm rooms are overlooking to a pure serenity of a low land forest. It is like being part of a scene from National Geographic rainforest.

Within minutes of walking distance to the primates and wild orchids around the lodge, wild birds to watch like Oriental pipe hornbills, fire-flies at night like a Christmas tree lighting. It is just simply an amazing experience not to be missed in Borneo!

Hospitable staff, passionate owner and great food!
