Very cozy—nestled in the hill edge with sea view.

Nothing

The room was really good, big, cozy, amazing view and ammenties. Staff were super kind and helpful all the time. really enjoyed the breakfast options. good place if you want to enjoy in the beach during the day and relax in your room at night.

The downside of this place, I’d say, is the rubbish in the sea. I know it’s not entirely the hotel’s fault, but cleaning the water should be a priority for them. As guests, we ended up doing it ourselves because it’s unpleasant to swim among plastic and all kinds of garbage. Additionally, drink prices in the restaurant were quite inflated. I understand it’s an island, but at a nearby store not part of the hotel, prices were about half as much.

Excellent! We stayed in a Beach suite king. It was spacious, beautifully decorated with balcony. It was clean and the staff couldn’t do enough to ensure we had a good stay. Shout out to Grace who was lovely and so helpful. The pool, weights gym and beach were just for residents and day trippers were just on the public beach. It was very well organised, the beach was cleaned of any plastic washed up. The sunset walk was on a path to the other side of the island snd was guided. Beautiful sunset!

Nothing, we loved it all. Very surprised at negative reviews as we had nothing to complain about.

Absolutely amazing accommodation on an island! The hillside villa we stayed in was stunning and with access to a private beach. It was honestly a dream. There is a filtered water sink on the property as well as a restaurant with DELICIOUS food - I really recommend the fried rice cause wow - and the staff are so so friendly. Grace was an absolute star!

We noticed quite late in the night that our balcony door is broken and doesn’t close however we told the staff in the morning and they came to fix it almost immediately. The staff goes home for the night so we should have checked earlier.

lovely comfortable room with extra seating area. good air con. Room very near to the reception area and not too near to the main walk way where the day trippers filed in. Breakfast catered for every nationality choices. The private beach had sunbeds and shades and we never had a problem getting one! The beach was clean and the sea warm and a safe snorkelling area was protected by coloured buoys. Many boats came to the island each day so safe area was appreciated and this also kept the coral from boat damage in the "safe" area. Many beautiful fish and healthy coral.

Warning ..if you are not fit do not go to the hillside Villas as the steps are VERY steep. Only one restaurant with fixed menu so limited in choice for evening meal as we stayed 4 nights.

amazing staff. beautiful island. affordable as not private but it was fun seeing the day trippers. they were gone by 4 and there is private beach city and a private pool so no one gets in the way. amazing guitarists playing for us in the restaurant at supper. really really lovely. really good food for dinner there is a fast food outlet that does local cheap fare for lunch and a shop to buy crisps and beer for your own cocktail hour in your apt or villa. monitor lizard 'gerry' was cool. massive bugger. such a lovely environment. 🙏

the beer at the restaurant could have been cheaper

The beach is stunning, though a bit rocky in some areas. The food was fresh and delicious. We chose a room close to the beach, which was convenient, but it can get noisy in the mornings as visitors start arriving around 8 or 9 AM. The resort itself is beautiful, and having a private beach made the stay more enjoyable. A short stay is more than enough to experience the best the resort has to offer.

The noise from the room next door was very noticeable, and we could hear every step from the room above us. While the food was tasty, it was expensive, and some dishes came in very small portions. Additionally, the water heater and shower in our room weren’t working properly, which was disappointing.

Very friendly helpful staff. Lovely hotel right on the beach. Eco friendly but everything has been thought of, still plenty of hot water, refillable drinking water. Nothing was too much trouble. Snorkeling was great, but go when the tide is high to preserve the reef.

The beach was messy when the wind was in the wrong direction. I chatted to a staff member who told me the rubbish comes in from the floating village on Gaya Island. HOWEVER the rubbish is quickly collected but staff each morning.

A nice beach, calm water. Lots of day visitors, just makes it interesting. There's a monitor lizard that strolls through the beach in the morning. There's no real snorkeling there. Loved the restaurant, spend a lot of time just sitting there watching the day and evening go by. Quick trip from Kota Kinabalu.

The snorkeling trip they could organize was unbelievably expensive: 300 ringgit for snorkel and fins and a 10 minute boat ride to the next island, they could do something about that.

The surrounding was very relax and pleasant! The villa was nice and very comfortable and well decorated

There’re local as well as tourist came for day trip so the half of beach can be crowded so enforcement needs to be in place to ask them not to use guests residents sun lounge in the beach. Fortunately they leave by 4 pm so it was quiet and peaceful afterward.
