Borneo Eagle Resort for a Total Island Getaway off the Sabah Coast, East Malaysia

Wazzup Pilipinas!

Nestled serenely on the island of Pulau Tiga 2.5 hours away by land and sea from Sabah’s capital of Kota Kinabalu lies the plush Borneo Eagle Resort – a cluster of 13 luxury contemporary villas opened in April 2018. The 21-acre verdant enclave is situated in the Kimanis Bay within walking distance of the first Survivor filming series site in 2000.

The Resort faces the Crocker Range in the horizon with views of the majestic Mt Kinabalu across the South China Sea.

Borneo Eagle Resort is the only luxury resort on the island set against a backdrop of lush virgin jungle.

Its main building design is inspired by the wingspan of the sea eagles inhabiting the island. The Resort is a stunning, ecological landscape of flourishing flora and fauna including 148 coconut trees. Bee hives are introduced to encourage cross pollination. Proboscis monkeys, monitor lizards, snakes and hornbills are some of the wildlife spotted while marine life abounds with a diverse array such as the clownfish, puffer fish, sea turtle and the occasional whale shark.

Accommodation

Principal architect Karim Hussein from Arkitek A Karim Hussein was tasked with ensuring that the Resort integrated well with the natural environment, uncompromised in its design and construction.

All 13 spacious sea facing villas with their own courtyards are categorized according to three types:

Pool (171 sq m), Coral (261 sq m) and Spa (288 sq m). Each villa provides super king-sized beds matched with comfortable pillow-top mattresses, premium bedding and linen. A well-stocked mini bar, water pitchers, complimentary aluminium water canisters, teas, a Nespresso Machine, in-room safe, alarm clock with Bluetooth and USB connectivity, portable MyFi, wireless internet, 55” flat screen TVs and Bose home theatre systems ensure guests are not lacking in comfort. The bathrooms are equipped with oversized mirrors, rain shower and toiletries sourced locally from natural ingredients. Digital wall panels control the lighting according to three moods: dinner, romance and evening. Guests wake up to sunrise unveiled by a remote control device. Artworks reflect the surrounding coral reefs and palm trees while lounge areas are fitted with elegant furniture and contemporary artworks including wood from the resort grounds transformed into artful pieces.

Guests can choose to dine or do yoga at the cheery patios with their own deck beds, outdoor shower and individual plunge pools or indulge in spa treatments in the privacy of their own villas. A Personal Service Ambassador is assigned to each villa. To ensure that guests get the most of their stay, questionnaires are emailed to them, prior to their arrival, to indicate their dietary preferences and choice of leisure activities, and if they are celebrating a special occasion.

Dining

The open-air Eagles Nest restaurant serves breakfast, lunch and dinner with a fine balance of Bornean and western dishes. The menus are based on the farm-to-table concept with seasonal ingredients and produce sourced from farms in the owning group. Complimentary evening cocktails are served at the Landing Bar. Room service or a gazebo styled picnic can also be arranged at scenic spots on the island.

A short canopy walk away is the multi-purpose room, ideal for a board meeting for eight or a private dinner, and a rooftop area for small events. The Sand Bar by the pool offers refreshments and lunch.

Recreational Activities 

The nearby jungle managed by Sabah Parks provides ample guided trekking opportunities including trails to volcanic mud mounts and pools known for its therapeutic properties. The waters around the Island are ideal for diving, snorkelling, fishing, hobbie wave and kayaking. The Resort’s fitness centre is housed next to a massive infinity pool with an area of 900 sq. m. 

Rates 

Villa rates range from USD1,200 to 2,000 inclusive of full board/activities and transfers from the city to the Resort.

Corporate Social and Environmental Responsibility 

Echo Resorts, the owning company of Borneo Eagle Resort and its sister properties, Bunga Raya Island Resort and Gayana Marine Resort, takes a serious view towards the community and the environment. The group has embraced several initiatives such as the establishment of Green-Os (organic vegetable farm) and Borneo Eco Fish Farm by Bayu Aquaculture Sdn (aquaculture) based on the core principles of natural cultivation and sustainability using good farming practices without pesticides. The Marine Ecology Research Centre, adjacent to Gayana Marine Resort, was built to focus on reef regeneration efforts and giant clam propagation.

Gillian Tan, Owner Representative, explained, “We are not another luxury resort. We are a family company sharing our home and providing unforgettable experiences. We lead by example creating 

better relationships, involving our community and preserving the environment we live in. Borneo Eagle Resort is a clear testament of our mission.”

Bionic Max Qualifies for Production Incentives During 2nd Cycle of FilmPhilippines’ FLIP

Wazzup Pilipinas!

The animated TV series Bionic Max has qualified for financial incentives under the Film Development Council of the Philippines (FDCP) and its FilmPhilippines Office’s (FPO) Film Location Incentive Program (FLIP).



France–based Gaumont has secured the services of Filipino production company Top Draw Animation for Bionic Max, an animated children’s series about the misadventures of a bionic guinea pig named Max and his goldfish friend JC. Through FLIP, Top Draw Animation is now eligible for a 20% cash rebate of up to PHP 10 Million (approx. US$ 196,000).



Top Draw Animation, founded in 1999, has previously worked for other well-known international productions, including My Little Pony: the Movie (2018), The Hollow (2018), and Penn Zero: Part Time Hero Season 2 (2017).



FLIP is FDCP’s financial incentives program that provides cash rebates to Filipino line production companies working on international projects. The program seeks to support such projects by providing financial flexibility for Filipino production companies hired by international productions. It launched its first cycle in January this year.



Projects across a range of audiovisual media are eligible for FLIP. A wide variety of audiovisual productions, from animated series’ such as Bionic Max to live-action films and shows, documentary projects, and more may receive cash rebates through the program. To be eligible, international productions must hire Filipino line production companies and have a minimum qualified production spending of PHP 8 million. Like Bionic Max, eligible productions may receive up to PHP 10 Million in cash rebates.



Bionic Max qualified for FLIP during the program’s second cycle of applications which was held from May 1st to July 31st. It is now the third project to receive financial incentives under FLIP. During its first cycle, FDCP awarded incentives to the Filipino line producers of the shows Almost Paradise and Survivor Russia.



In addition to FLIP, FDCP also implements the International Co-Production Fund (ICOF) this year. ICOF is a selective fund for feature-length films of any genre that are internationally co-produced with Filipino production companies. It provides up to PHP 10 Million in cash incentives and requires a minimum projected spending of PHP 5 Million.



During its first cycle, ICOF awarded the projects Nocebo (directed by Lorcan Finnegan and co-produced by Philippines-based Epicmedia and UK-based Wild Swim Films) and Kapag Wala Nang Mga Alon (When the Waves are Gone) (directed by Lav Diaz and co-produced by Epicmedia alongside Danish production company Snowglobe and French production company Films Boutique) with funding.



Both FLIP and ICOF were launched by FDCP’s FilmPhilippines Office to encourage more international productions to hire or co-produce their projects with Philippine production companies.



Productions wishing to avail of either FLIP or ICOF incentives may apply now. The third cycle for applications for both financial incentive programs opened on September 1st and will continue through November 27.
