    The beach is beautiful and clean, the whole resort and gardens are immaculate. The staff are very friendly and helpful and it's a very family friendly resort. The only activities we did was kayaking in the lagoon and a cooking class which were both fun. The perfect place for some downtime and proper relaxation, especially a drink on the beach at sunset.

    Good strategic location and amazing view. The pool was nice and safe for kids. Easy to move about the city with grab. Got laundry shop, small convenience stores selling essentials stuff for travelling, food shop and cafes within the building. Amazing stay. Recommended for family with children or friends. We stayed in a apartment with 6-8 pax capacity. Extremely worth it. Wil repeat again next trip.

    We been here a few times. They have fantastic and friendly staff. Great place for children as they have facilities such as indoor playground, indoor activity room etc. They could provide a high chair and baby bottle steriliser to the room. We loved their breakfast buffet. Lots of variety of cuisine. We also loved their longe where they have live singers/music. Great area to relax and have a drink. Overall, Great place to relax and unwind from the world of work. Will definitely return again when we travel to Sabah next time.

    Its a cozy villa with a small pool. It great for family getaways to have 2 to 3 rooms with a living room, kitchen and dining area. We could prepare a simple breakfast before heading out. Beach is clean and rather empty.. no ones were there except us. My kids had fun at the pool and the beach.
