Stunning Sandy Beach and Thriving Coral Reef for Secluded Tropical Luxury

As sensual and exotic as the hibiscus flower that bears its name, Bungaraya Island Resort is a luxurious jewel set on a coral reef island just off the coast of Borneo. A secluded island hideaway of 48 timbered villas, the resort is tucked away on a hidden bay framed by white sand beach on one side and the centuries old virgin jungle on the other. Each private villa is rough hewn and terraced into the hillside reflecting simplicity of the Borneo architectural style, blending seamlessly with the comforts for the most sophisticated and discerning luxury traveler. Private balconies offer jaw dropping vistas of the beach and the South China Sea beyond. Villas range from timbered dwellings, steps from the beach, to 3 bedroom, multi-level units with wrap around decks and private plunge pools. A dedicated hilltop spa called Echo Wellness Spa, with exotic private pavilions, blends the finest of Traditional Asian and Western treatments capturing restorative powers of indigenous plants and oils.

Facilities include the Echo Wellness Spa, Sauna, and Ice Room. Certified PADI Dive Center, Snorkeling, Kayaks, Hobie Catamaran Sailing, Zip Line, Canopy Walk, Jungle Trekking and Fitness Center. A Fleet of boats from 28ft for island hoping to luxurious Nautilus for superb sunset cruises. 30m infinity-edge pool, Wireless Internet. Excursions to Monkey Sanctuary, River Rafting and Mt Kinabalu climb.

Oceanfront Dining at the laid back Pantai Restaurant & Bar or the casual elegance of the Longhouse & Wine Cellar (Two Glass Award by Wine Spectator) - modern European Bistro with a contemporary flair with the largest wine selection in the region. Let the day slip away at the wine bar with a flight of Wine, Cheese and Chocolate or for the ultimate over water experience reserve a Private Pavilion for dinning over the South China Sea.
