It was the best accommodation. The first floor was Sea View Tanjungari Wing It was a resort where you could go out to see the sunset right away, and you were satisfied with both the swimming pool and breakfast. The only regret is that the convenience store is not 24 hours, so it's a little disappointing. It's hard to go out of the resort Other than that, they were all the best.

The staff was very friendly and helpful. I like the diversity in the staff employed (age, gender and ability). Some areas can do with a spruce up (floor of the pool).

Exceptional staff and hotel

What a delightful stay ! From the moment we walked up the steps to the sound of the gong ,cool towels and refreshing drinks- friendly and accommodating staff - we knew we were in for a treat . Hotel surrounds and pool are beautiful , the yoga class in the morning right next to the water was a lovely way to start the day. Food plentiful and delicious with a huge variety of dishes. Always something going on and yet blissful places to be still and relaxed. The staff are always smiling and will go out of their way to help .Best 4 days we have spent in a long time - we will be back for sure - terima kasih Shangri La Tanjung Aru for a wonderful stay .

not good

Overall, it is worse than Shangri-La Cebu Mactan. The sunset isn't particularly spectacular, but it's acceptable. Breakfast is not tasty. The staff are not friendly.

Stayed in Tanjung ocean view which got nice sunset view. All staff- room service, breakfast room , pool area, are all excellent. Check in was good, got upgrade . Pool was very old but maintained very well and clean. Beach area was not that good. Breakfast got everything, fresh juice, fruits pomelo etc. noodle sections. As mentioned before by others late check out is not allowed even when hotel is less than a third full. We were given “ star lounge access for staying on but as mentioned by others nothing in there except toilets.

I have traveled the world many times. Over 1,000,000 miles in the air last I checked. I have stayed in slums and I have stayed in resorts. This is the best place I have stayed by far and for a great price. The food was great, staff was very friendly and attentive, all spoke English pretty well. The room service was divine and the buffets were insanely assorted and delicious. It is a short boat ride to different islands for snorkeling and water activities. Additionally if you upgrade you get access to free food and alcohol for afternoon tea and adults time in the restaurant. They also have so many activities for children and you can drop your child around 11am and have that romantic vacation you have been wanting while your kids play.

We loved the property with one exception: despite complaining nothing was done about the fact that we had only cold water in the shower for four days.

歩いていける距離に飲食店が少ないのが残念！そこを承知の上で利用したので問題なかったです！
