Featured Kota Kinabalu Family friendly Hotels
Perfect weekend getaway to relax and unwind. Rooms are in excellent condition. LOVED the oversized jacuzzi on the balcony. Staff are always in good spirits. I recommend the early morning breakfast in the reserve, definitely worth the 5am wake up call.
This is the 2nd time staying here and again a pleasant stay. Facilities and amenities are excellent except for the toilet door difficult to close.
Good ambiance
Carpet should be change, toilets prefer to have bidet.
Nice stay. Staff very friendly. But breakfast very packed with guest from korea n china. They all Makan berebut rebut.
nice hotel
Beautiful sea view. Clean room and friendly staff. Definitely love to come back again.
Overall we had a pleasant stay, although we do not know how the other hotels at KK are like. Staffs were really friendly and helpful. Kids enjoyed the pool with the water slides and sea view was fantastic. The hotel’s beach is very small but there’s a boat departing to the Islands so you can enjoy ...
The only issue during our stay was the A/C; it was not so good during the night. I did not report it because we were busy all day and never remembered to do it. Beside of that, great hotel.
