Nestled along the bank of the Kinabatangan River and tropical lush greenery, the Borneo Natural Sukau Bilit Resort is an eco-resort located in the village of Bilit, Malaysia. The resort and its rooms rest above 4ft wooden stilts that rise amongst the forest, linked together by a series of boardwalk. All rooms in the property feature wooden décor that were hand-crafted by the local tradesmen using the Borneo Iron Wood, a rare timber tree that is native to Borneo. Each room also comes equipped with its own balcony. The rooms also come equipped with air conditioning, a ceiling fan and a mosquito net. The en suite bathrooms come with cold and hot showers. Guests are able to have opportunities to encounter all kinds of flora and fauna that range from the proboscis monkeys, the oriental darters and even the pygmy elephants during their stay. The resort is located approximately a 2.5 hour drive away from Sandakan.

Couples particularly like the location — they rated it 9.1 for a two-person trip.
