Best Luxury Hotels in Kota Kinabalu

"Beautiful, huge property. 4 restaurants, food ok and expensive .2 great pools and right on the beach. As a note...... it's very, very hot so the ocean is really warm. We ended up sitting by the pool. "

"Fabulous stay in a wonderful resort"

"The facilities, food and service are fantastic. Lovely view looking out over the bay and wonderful sunset viewing from the pool and rooftop function areas."

"Had a lovely stay, would like to have seen more food options and later bar food service. Activities team were great, reception and waiting staff were not very friendly, expected a higher level of service. "

"Walkable."

"Absolutely amazing!! We stayed in river lodge and everything is perfectly fine as photo shown on the apps. The large spacious glass dining area are so remarkable! The eco-friendly and tropical forest surrounding is really good for travellers who look for wellness and quietness. Inside the park provides you easy trail to waterfall and hanging wooden bridge so you don’t need to plan so much. I will definitely stay in river lodge again among all the other chalets choices "

"My stay at this hotel was rejuvenating. The soothing sound of the sea, the breathtaking natural surroundings, and the courteous staff all contributed to a delightful experience."

"The buffet was okay. There is access to the pool at the Magellan Sutera as well. The staff is polite, but less attentive than what you'd expect from a five-star hotel. I wish the entertainment i.e. bowling, billiards etc. is on site. Instead, all entertainment including the jacuzzi are on the Marina Club, which is quite a walk you'd feel lazy to go to on a hot day. The water at the beach has trash. "

"Some furniture a little aged. Bathtub stopper doesn’t work. WiFi is the absolute worst of any 5star hotel I’ve ever been in. Keeps kicking u out every time you closed the phone. Have to relog in EVERY time you turn on the phone. Cell signals sucks so u are reliant on the wifi. But overall great value for such a large oceanfront suite. Location cannot be beat. Amenity is awesome and views are great. "

"Fantastic location and such helpful friendly staff"
