Truly amazing!

Amazing place with such unique vibe and care for details. The view from The room, the kindness of the staff and vegan options for the means are creating spectacular and wonderful climate in the rain forest. Free shuttle to the most popular attractions in the area. Can’t really find anything to complain for. Definitely worth to visit!

Wonderful natural surroundings, rustic retreat but very comfortable, great alternative to a "modern" resort. Staff were very friendly and attended to all our needs. Room was well equipped, air-conditioning ,fan and insect netting around the beds very effective. Bathroom/toilet/shower area..very good. Common dining area conducive to enjoyable interaction with other guests.Freeflow of drinking water, coffee and tea most welcome.Shuttle service to Sepilok made for brilliant excursion experience. A top stay allround, excellent value, highly recommended 👌

True jungle experience

We loved the experience of Paganakan Dii! It was very true to the jungle experience and the property matched the vibe. Our deluxe room was comfortable and the east facing view to the jungle was heavenly The AC was much appreciated. The staff was really kind and they made sure we had the best experience and that daily activities/shuttles and meals were well managed. They also arranged a night walk for us at RDC (one day in advance). Breakfast was free, but lunch and dinner also had some good and cbeap options, everything was tasty. You could see monkeys, squirrels and birds directly from your table.

Secluded and peaceful

Really really lovely staff. Very welcoming, polite, and helpful. Beautiful location amongst the rainforest. Shuttles to the airport/sepilok/orangutan sanctuary. Laundry services, nice food and drinks menu. When I got ill during my stay, they called a taxi immediately to take me to the hospital. The dorm beds themselves were comfy.

Not worth the price – very worn down and uncomfortable stay

The setting itself is nice, with a pretty view from the balcony, and the shuttle service to nearby orangutan and sun bear centres is convenient. The staff were polite, and the food was decent with generous portions.

Perfect rainforest stay

It's in a rainforest, so yes, there will be bugs, animals and it's not perfectly clean. If you can accept this, it's a perfect stay.

The environment, in the jungle, semi open rooms to the outdoors. Warm showers, food and transport readily available, closeness to the sanctuaries. A lovely, friendly, helpful team. And brilliant common spaces, hammocks for relaxing. I'm probably returning just to hang out!
