The lodging at the Myne Resort can only be described as “adequate.” The real reason you are travelling to Sandakan and to this river retreat is to get up close and personal with animals and nature. However, for the prices they charged at this place I do not think you get the full value for the money you are paying.... More

We booked this because accommodation is important to us. We had no real problem with the accommodation and stayed close to the reception as advised by other because of the layout of the chalets. Bathroom facilities average. The one irritant we had was the incessant noise during the day from renovations ( its not as if you can escape it)... More

We booked through dive down below for a 3d2n package. Our guide was also Patrick and I would like to reiterate the review of the previous poster, I'll try not to repeat what has already been said. Patrick was excellent and really made our trip, such a genuine person with huge passion and knowledge of his country and it's wildlife.... More

We stayed for 2 nights in early April, it was to be one of the highlights of our holiday. We booked the Borneo part of our trip with Dive Down Below, and Sarah Jane cannot be faulted for the tour she arranged for us. The river trips from Myne Resort were awe-inspiring, we saw lots of primates, including one Orang,... More

We had 2 chalets for 4 nights 17-21 Feb, 2012. It was an exceptionally memorable experience that is a must for any nature lover. We saw everything that could be seen; orangutans with young, all sorts of primates, birds, snakes and lizards including crocks on the "night cruise' (don't miss it!) and elephants on the last 2 days even though...

We booked a package 3D2N with Downbelow Marine and Wildlife Adventures (www.divedownbelow.com) and stayed at this resort (http://www.myne.com.my). The resort exceeded our expectations given its relatively remote location in the jungle (unfortunately and quite distressing, the journey to this beautiful location passed miles and miles of Palm Oil Plantations!). The resort is located on a river bend on the banks... More

Our family of five stayed at Myne Resort, for what turned out to be one night only, during our trip around the South-East and Borneo. One night only, because we love orang-utans. What was to be an experience of a lifetime turned out to be, instead, the greatest disappointment during our wonderful trip. With Myne, we had high expectations in... More
