    The staff are exceptional. The variety of food is amazing.

    The staff are exceptional. The variety of food is amazing. Facilities were in good condition and easily accessible. I expected we may be able to hike a few trails on the island but this was not possible. It surprised me for such a relaxed place that you needed more formal attire (trousers, closed shoes and collared shirt for) for one of the restaurants. We weren’t prepared for that. Sunset cruise was brief but great

    We had an incredible stay here.

    We had an incredible stay here. The island team go to great lengths to make sure their guests are well looked after. At dinner the chef came out to say hello and wish us a happy anniversary! Wow! Our room - should I say house? - was amazing. Beautifully and thoughtfully decorated, turn down service at night, great food, gorgeous settings and the nicest staff team ever. Highly recommended!

    A beautiful island the hotel was a high standard but food...

    A beautiful island the hotel was a high standard but food and drinks are very pricey. we were transferred by a shuttle boat which took 10 minutes it was included in the cost of our booking but we heard other people say they were not aware of the extra costs. our villa was at the top of a steep hill with amazing views. and was a beautiful villa there was nothing on their website saying about steep hills and steps so be aware when you book . this would not put me off from going again we would definately return! snorkeling was amazing with lots of fish. we also went to the private beach which was stunning. we ate in the restaurant for a buffet evening meal there were lots of choice and lovely fresh hot food the staff were very friendly and could not do enough for you and so helpful a wonderful place to stay.

    Location was great- loved the view from our top floor Kinabalu Villa. Our villa was huge and very comfortable. The staff were incredibly polite and well trained. Minor issues were addressed very quickly (for example the WiFi was reconnected before we had walked back to our villa). The breakfast, which was included in our room rate, was fantastic. The free visit to the hotel’s turtle rescue centre was excellent. A variety of other paid activities available.

    This resort is really a unique place! Hidden in the rain forest of Gaya Island with a beautiful beach and a beautiful pool we really enjoyed our stay. Kayaking, SUP, sknorkeling (we snorkeled with a green sea turtle!) is possible straight away from the beach! Breakfast is excellent! Also the restaurant is very good! The manager and the staff are extraordinary friendly!

    Rooms was beautiful. The hotel provided a free mosquito spray and mosquito bite cream which was very welcome. The staff were amazing with the wild animals, they seemed to really care about their wellbeing. Nice pool area and provide snorkels for free. Also some free daily activities.

    The location is amazing, the staff is very friendly and the spa treatments are really good. But that’s about it, the rest is a disaster, incredibly expensive and NOT a 5-star hotel. I went there to relax for a few days, it was impossible to relax anywhere.
