The entry for Borneo reads: "You may remember this eco hotspot from the first ever Survivor series, when it hosted winner Richard Hatch, host Jeff Probst, and crew. More recently, this Malaysian island made headlines after a mysterious never-before-seen catlike animal was discovered here in late 2005. Whichever accolade piques your interest, Borneo has plenty to captivate you when you're not searching for the world's newest carnivore or playing at your own tribal council. The slopes of Mount Kinabalu (South East Asia's tallest mountain) and the dense forest trails of the Bario Loop offer prime hiking terrain; mangroves and wetlands provide lush aquatic vistas; and the Sepilok Orang Utan Rehabilitation Centre will make anyone go ape. For an all-out eco-friendly getaway, it's hard to beat a stay at the award-winning Sukau Rainforest Lodge, a completely self-sufficient hotel subsisting on rainwater and solar energy; fishing platforms, bird- and wildlife-viewing decks, electric-motor boats, and a 1500-foot-long Hornbill Boardwalk - that affords stellar viewings of the resident elephants that routinely stroll around the back of the lodge - are just some of the natural bounty you can expect."

Sukau Rainforest Lodge feels truly honoured by this recognition by such a prestigious organization.
