A Simple Luxury

The location at the Tip of Borneo was hand-picked by its owner Sam who had just returned from a 10-month solo travel adventure and wanted to recreate that simple rustic lifestyle she had experienced while on the road. Ukkay is a transformed village farm house built in the 1900s in a coconut plantation and now boasts all the modern amenities for a relaxing stay in the countryside with easy access to some of the best beaches in Kudat. It’s still a work in progress to refurbish the house and garden to its original rustic splendour but it’s already doing what it had set out to do – giving you a place to totally unwind and find your better self. •• FB: @ukkaykudat
