Since 2006 we have been working on the renovation of Borneo Rainforest Lodge. 24 of the 31 rooms are complete and we have finally started the Big One – renovation of the Main Lodge building itself.
This is a big deal because it means shutting down the hotel for over two months and doing a major shopfitting type job under difficult conditions.
Shop fitting type; because work will progress around the clock to minimise the closure time.
Difficult conditions; in normal weather it takes a 4WD lorry 4 hours to reach the lodge. Right now it is the rainy season meaning the road is a quagmire and two bridges are down making the journey impassable to all but small pick-up trucks.
So far the contractor has succeeded in pulling the lodge apart and now has two months in which to put it back together!
