To fully appreciate the ancient rhythms of the forest, the best thing one could do is to stay a few days at the Sepilok Nature Resort. The Sepilok Orang-Utan Rehabilitation Center is just a few minutes walk away (it is not uncommon to have Orang Utans or pythons wandering around among the chalets).
Set in a spectacularly landscaped private area of manicured lawns and rolling hills, the fully air-conditioned (and very comfortable) twin bed chalets feature beautiful lake or jungle view verandahs and private bathrooms with hot water; the surrounding garden - which would take half a day to explore - offers and amazing array of tropical plants and grasses and a collection of more than one hundred and fifty different Asian orchid species. Front office, tour information desk and restaurant are all integrated in the resort main building built with charming traditional wooden interior reflecting a truly tranquil setting, overlooking the green shimmering curtain of lowland tropical rainforest canopies with some formations reaching almost 80 to 120 feet.
