"Stayed here a few years ago. This time around apart from the cafe, the villas are barely maintained especially the exterior roofs, walls and ceilings. "
"Excellent, a great value in a perfect location near tons of restaurants. Strong wifi and shower, comfortable bed and bedding, very clean, super nice and helpful staff, and kettle + water cooler provided "
"We were a group of nature lovers who were using this as a three night stay to get used to the temperature and time change upon arrival in Borneo. Loved the grounds and snorkeling right from the beach. Fantastic nature center staffed by several biologists. The food options were a bit pricey but we were expecting that. The grounds were very birdy and we found two Borean Pit Vipers. The mangrove tour was fantastic. Room is very good quality for the price."
"The hotel is in a strategic area, easy for food hunting, shopping mall is nearby and all the staff are friendly.
Just the room facilieties were prepared with old stuff. But overall everything is good."
"The room was comfortable and clean. It will be great if cloth hanger is installed inside the room and kiblat direction was labelled for muslim tourists."
"Great location at Gaya Street with night market & morning market selling many interesting foodstuffs and wares. Convenient as many dining shops nearby with Chinese, Malay & Western food easily available. Hotel is clean & eco-friendly with hospitable staff. Will definitely stay here again."
"Hotel could arrange complementary airport transfer both ways even late evening (after midnight) and early morning (at 03:00 am). It was very convenient for me to move."
"Awesome location to enjoy the Saturday & Sunday Gaya Market. Comfortable with basic facilities. Highly recommend if you're planning to explore the nearby area."

"The only recommendation would be for the Japanese restaurant to use less garlic when making the fried rice.
The breakfast buffet and dinner buffet offered a large variety of choices-fresh and delicious.
We recommend a stay in an ocean view suite for couples who plan to visit. It offered an outdoor soak tub to allow one to watch the sun set into the sea.
Little things made the differences at the Shangri-La Rasa Ria:
• cold face towel when sitting by the pool
• family friendly pools and activities for those travelling with little munchkins
• accessibility friendly
• located right on the sandy beach
• multiple pillow options - AMAZING!
• laundry service at an amazing price
• a thank-you note from the room attendants sealed the deal on the day of check-out
Service was excellent from the moment we arrived to the sad moment when we had to leave.
Looking forward to another stay soon!!!"
"Spacious clean rooms. Friendly staff. Incredible food. Excellent location- walking distance to the food markets, Sunday markets, the ferry port and malls. Special mention again to all staff there- extremely friendly and helpful. We had a great stay, thank you!"
"The Shangti-La is just a step up from other hotels. Yes, it's big and busy but the staff go out of their way to really spoil you. I'm vegan and they bent over backwards to ensure I had a great breakfast, sent soy milk to my room tweaked dishes so I ate well. And the location - oh my. We stayed in a garden room and could walk straight out looking at the sea. Room had a shower and a bath, was well stocked. Water in the fridge every day. Their Spa was great too. I can't think of anything bad about the place. We just didn't want to leave. "
