Top Gaya Island Hotel Reviews

Shangri-La Rasa Ria, Kota Kinabalu

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely hotel - second time we’ve visited"

Bunga Raya Island Resort & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"An amazing place: villas are well equipped, comfortable, and set into a hillside above the beach, so everyone has a view. You can call an electric buggy to take you up (or down) the hill. The 2 restaurants by the beach serve delicious food. Staff are super friendly and attentive. The infinity pool is large and great. Massages are good. It’s not cheap, and free boats to and from KK are limited, but a treat well worth trying"

Gaya Island Resort

10/10 Excellent

"We had an amazing time at Gaya Island Resort. It is a luxury resort with great food and drinks, comfortable rooms, and incredible views/proximity to the ocean. Worth noting is that this is in a nature reserve, surrounded by jungle and ocean, and the resort embraces and supports this, which means coexisting with wildlife. You can walk out from the resort beach to their own protected reef and swim with dozens of species of beautiful fish (equipment is available for free). We didn’t see any snakes, though we watched for them constantly over 5 days and participated intently in multiple jungle walks. The activities were an absolute highlight - a deeper snorkeling excursion, walks, mangrove kayaking, and more available. I had booked it confident that the family members who prefer to lounge by the pool would be well-served, but they ended up coming on the excursions and having a great time. Definitely worth 4-5 days if you can swing it."
