Chalet vacation rentals in Borneo

You’ll get a mesmerizing view just from the outside of your window with this house. Nice staycation

A near perfect place if you're looking for a relaxing, phenomenal location at Kudat, Sabah. The location is right exactly at the tip of Borneo, which is an excellent location to capture the ambience, be it sunrise, sunset, milky way, you name it, as it's just a single step out of the room. The room is nice enough for 3 pax and it's well organized just as displayed in the picture. The only complaint I have is the operating hour of the restaurant is a bit too short given that it's closing at 8:30pm, and there's an unexplainable electric blackout that happens rarely. In conclusion, it was a pleasant stay and I highly recommend it if you're looking for a temporary escape from the city to the beach. (P/S: the road around the area is extremely jolting so I highly recommend you to look for an SUV for a safer drive in Kudat. Cheers!)

Peaceful and good getaway from the bustling city life, enjoyed the closeup view of Mt Kinabalu every morning, unforgettable place, worth the trip up

Howard and his family warmly welcomed us, and I had an absolutely perfect stay at their place. I still remember our first night—we had just finished climbing the mountain and drove four hours to get here. It was nearly midnight when we arrived, but Mr. Howard was patiently waiting for us and kindly reminded us to drive safely. This small gesture truly touched me. Over the next few days, Howard and His wife prepared delicious breakfasts for us every morning and patiently introduced us to the surrounding area, local restaurants, and travel tips. The cabin is perfectly located close to the sea and surrounded by a beautiful forest. Every morning, I woke up to the refreshing scent of nature. Time seemed to slow down here, and I felt completely at ease. I highly recommend supporting Howard and his family—they have contributed so much to the local community and are a truly warm and loving family. I will definitely come back again! — Stella (Yifan)

We - my 20 year old son & I - were two on Borneorundreise & made a stop in Mabul for some diving. Our choice for the property fell on the Mabul Paradies Lodge. Very authentic. Great host David (The Boss) with extremely friendly & helpful staff. All dives were perfectly organized & the diving instructor Eddie & his Dive Master Nelson were great. The typical Asian food was top & could be greatly upgraded by buying freshly caught seafood & fishing. The seafood & fish were prepared extremely deliciously by the in-house kitchen at the desired time. Sometimes David himself is in the kitchen. During our stay he prepared crabs and giant shrimp as well as a Chinese soup & invited us to eat with it. All by family recipe; delicious!!! We will be happy to come back. Our expectations were more than met. We felt very comfortable with David & his team.

Very friendly host, will keep communicating with you to ensure you arrived the place. Nice room and of course is a good place to stay if you would like to out away from city and take a fresh air

It's very convenient diving, especially if you go to Sibatan Xiao, it's fun and talkative, you will feel that the hotel is family-style, many returning guests, and atmosphere is very good. A lot of water around the hotel is transparent, green, beautiful, and casually.There is also a big highlight that locals will hold the boat to sell fresh seafood. The value for money is very good and delicious!You can also take beautiful photos

Really a wonderful place. We stayed in the VIP2 Lodge, which was just as expensive as the others. Of course, it's a little expensive, but we had a total "Maldives" feeling and it's exactly as shown in the pictures. There are opportunities for snorkeling all around. Baby sharks, water snakes and giant turtles swim around the property. The tours offered are phenomenal and all the staff are very friendly and accommodating. If you need something from the city (e.g. sunscreen), this is also organized. It should also be said that this place is completely safe. No pirates, kidnapping or anything. That's no longer relevant at all.

Beautiful surroundings with sea , love the staff there, very friendly and welcoming. I love the coral reef and definitely enjoy and able to swim freely. The area are clean and would come back again🙆🏻‍♀️

Amazing location.

Probably the best beach retreat in Sabah 😉 Nathasia’s place is the perfect beach retreat - simple yet beautifully designed wooden huts with fully equipped outdoor bathrooms blend into the trees and pristine beach setting. Delicious home cooked meals - the brothers running the place day to day are doing so beautifully paying every attention to details. I couldn’t recommend enough!
