Unveiling the Story Behind Lepa Lepa Resort

Our journey begins with the indigenous Bajau Laut people, also known as the “Sea Nomads” of Semporna, Malaysia. Their lives revolved around the rhythm of the ocean, and their language, Sama-Bajau, held the key to unlocking the resort’s identity.

Lepa, a word that resonates in the Sama-Bajau tongue, translates beautifully to “sail.” For the Bajau Laut, their lepa wasn’t just a vessel; it was a symbol of freedom, a gateway to exploration, and a testament to their deep connection with the sea.

Lepa Lepa, with its focus on sustainable tourism, echoes the Bajau Laut’s reverence for the environment. Marine conservation programs and eco-friendly practices are woven into the very fabric of the resort experience.

By choosing the name Lepa Lepa, the founders didn’t just create a brand; they established a legacy. A legacy that honors the past, celebrates the present, and paves the way for a sustainable future in paradise.
