Borneo Rainforest Lodge, Danum Valley

Borneo Rainforest Lodge's dedication to environmentally friendly practices is exemplified by its comprehensive management of waste, water, chemicals, energy, and noise. With all the delicious buffet spreads that go on throughout the day, excess cooking oil and charcoal ashes are turned into cleaning soaps and fermented kitchen waste is turned into compost for organic planting. They also treat wastewater with Effective Microorganisms (EM) and utilise EM mud balls to enhance water quality. In terms of chemical management, Borneo Rainforest Lodge prioritises eco-friendliness by using environmentally safe detergents and selling natural insect repellent. Their commitment extends to providing eco-friendly amenities with natural ingredients, and we ensure the purity of our water through an extensive filtration process followed by UV water purification instead of chlorination. Additionally, the design of Borneo Rainforest Lodge's chalets adheres to passive design principles. The installation of solar-powered water heaters in each en-suite and energy-efficient light bulbs and LED lighting throughout all of our facilities are part of their ongoing efforts to promote sustainable practices. By staying at Borneo Rainforest Lodge, you may doze off with the sounds that emanate from deep within the virgin rainforest, knowing that simply being there contributes to protecting one of the most incredible natural environments on the planet.
