This is a beautiful property with an incredible reserve on site. There are so many beautiful positives about this resort. The staff are warm and friendly. We stayed in the garden executive suite which was great for us as as a family with 2 small children. The room was large with beautiful decor. The kids pool area was great for both kids (5 8). The kids club is included in stay and had several activities but neither of my children wanted to take part. There are several chargeable water ports and free use of kayaks and bodyboards each day. There is a dedicated games area with several board games and food ball tables etc. The highlight is the amazing reserve - several walks and tours take place with the knowledgable staff. We took the sunrise breakfast which was incredible. Breakfast is great with a huge variety and dedicated kids area. The only downside to the resort is the price of food for both lunch and dinner. This is incredibly pricey and you can easily spend £150 on dinner for a family of 4 (without alcohol). If we were to book again I would definitely get an all inclusive rate. Service for lunch and dinner is also quite slow which can be frustrating at times. However we would return in a heartbeat and would heartily recommend.

The resort is nestled in a quiet part of Sabah far away from city noise. It’s an idyllic place to be whether you’re there with family like us or if you want to go there for a couple’s getaway. The beach is really nice where you can have fun water sport activities. The staff are great and will always find a way to keep your holidays stress free and memorable. A few notes for the management. The building is showing a bit of age. I’d recommend the hotel to update the doors, wooden furniture and carpets in particular as they are showing signs of wear. The hotel particularly needs to clean the beach all the way across and not just in the front of the hotel. We had to turn back from our walk after a few minutes as it appeared that nobody was cleaning the beach to the right of the property.

We were a group of women celebrating our 40th birthday’s. From the moment we arrived, the staff for so kind and welcoming. The resort is beautifully located. The pool was amazing and the food and drinks were superb. We tried a bit of everything- from hiking the reserve, SUP pool yoga, beach volleyball, karaoke, waterslides, the day spa…we decided to upgrade our rooms for the last couple days and made use of the Ocean View Rooms which have a bath on the balcony. We met Fiona the General Manager and she ensured the staff went above and beyond for us and organised a special dinner and breakfast. I honestly couldn’t fault anything and I keep telling everyone how much we loved every second. I cannot wait to go back. Thank you again for everything!!

Our stay was perfect: the staff were all so friendly and helpful, the grounds of the hotel are beautifully maintained and extremely spacious and the large selection of food and different types of restaurants was very impressive. The private beach is west facing so you get to experience amazing sunsets and the hotel kindly upgraded up to a lovely room with a great view of the beach. This hotel will always be very special to us as we got engaged on this trip and couldn’t have asked for a better setting or a more memorable trip!

It should not be considered 5 star hotel… did not even have coffee machine in the room, telephone in the room smelled SO bad, the room is very old and AC was dripping water. TV was in Chinese language setting which took staff to fix for an hour and doesn’t even have Netflix either. It rained two days during our stay and the only restaurant open was buffet style which we got charged even thought we could not get seated so we left. Very unfortunate

Good place to stay

Beautiful beach and swimming pools. Location is a little remote, excellent for getting away from the city, but a bit too far for going into Kota Kinabalu regularly. Service was good. Prices were decent. The resort needs a bit of updating - the showerhead was leaking, and cleaning the bird poo from the beach bar tables and chairs.

The property does not offer much international food and is not the best option if you travel solo. It’s more a family resort

It is an amazing resort with great service and wonderful activities for children. Lorena checked us in and was a superb host for us at the start. Alif was very friendly, and even the ranger gave our daughter a lovely evening tour of the glow in the dark mushrooms. Nothing was too much for them.

This was a very nice property with a great pool and comfortable rooms. My daughter loved the waterslide and had fun at the kids club. The discovery centre was a unique addition. The restaurant offerings were delicious but lacked a bit in terms of completing a meal (eg Indian food but no raita or chutneys, Malaysian coffee but no condensed milk). The pool area could have used more things like light sandwiches , nachos etc. attention to detail could be improved on (eg you ask on your online ordering how many guests are eating, but then never deliver the required cutlery). Overall we had a great time and I would recommend this stay to friends, however small improvements would take this from a 4 to 5 star stay.
