Nanga Sumpa Lodge

Situated deep in the forest, around a two hour boat journey from the Batang Ai Lake, is the Nanga Sumpa Lodge. The lodge is next to the Ulu Ai Longhouse community and guests are invited to visit the longhouse and interact with the Iban community that lives there. There are three Forest Rooms which can accommodate up to four people, with ensuite bathrooms and mesh windows to keep insects out. These rooms share an Iban-style ruai, or covered verandah for communal meals and relaxing. Meals are prepared in the lodge and feature fresh jungle vegetables and other local delicacies. The simple nature of the accommodation at Nanga Sumpa means that this experience is stuited for the more adventurous traveller and not for those seeking luxury. The beauty of the local area and the Iban people are the real attraction of staying at this remote lodge.
