Hotels with Parking in Semporna

Choosing Beanstalk Homestay for my Semporna trip was absolutely the right decision! The owner and staff are incredibly warm and welcoming, treating you like friends. Before I even arrived, they patiently answered all my questions and gave me tons of practical tips for island hopping and dining. While the room isn't luxurious, it's spotlessly clean, the AC works great, there's plenty of hot water, and the bedding is really comfortable. Getting a good night's sleep after a day of activities is so important. The service was the biggest plus! The seafood preparation prices were excellent, and the breakfast, though simple, was thoughtfully prepared – coffee, toast, and eggs, perfect for fueling up before heading out to sea. Next time I'm in Semporna, I'll definitely stay at Beanstalk Homestay again.

I booked this guesthouse based on a recommendation from a Xiaohongshu blogger. It's very clean and doesn't have any strange odors. I'd say it's one of the cleaner accommodations in town. The showers are communal, and you need to bring your own toothbrush and toothpaste, but towels are provided. Just be aware that during busy times, you might have to wait for hot water, and the water pressure isn't very strong. The location is excellent and quite safe; you need a key card to enter the main gate. It's very convenient to walk to the pier, and right next door is the tour agency for 'Conch Diving' guides. The owner is very nice, and I really like Malaysian people. Thank you! It was a very pleasant experience.

The owner provided excellent service, and the place was very clean. It's a bit far from the pier, otherwise, I would definitely stay here again. They even brought us an umbrella when it rained, which was really thoughtful. The owner was also very communicative and friendly.

This hotel is clean and tidy, and they provide laundry facilities for guests. The amenities are on par with a decent 4-star boutique hotel. If you have a lot of luggage, you might find it hard to open your suitcase fully. I had a large bed and my suitcase took up half the space, while I slept on the other half. The location is safe and quiet, about a 15-minute walk from the seafood market. It’s perfect for a stroll after dinner, especially since you’re bound to eat a lot because it’s so affordable! When in Semporna, you absolutely must do two things: dive and go to the seafood market to buy and eat fresh seafood! Otherwise, you’ll have come for nothing. (For reference, if you go to the night market around 7 PM, giant mantis shrimp are 90-100 MYR/piece for 2kg, extra-large lobsters are 250-300 MYR/piece for 5kg, and 4kg groupers are 50 MYR/piece).

The hotel room looks new, clean, spacious and comfortable. Simple packed breakfast was provided. They are kind enough to allow us to check out late as we went for a morning island tour before leaving semporna.

I have mixed feelings about this hotel. The location is beautiful, set in a jungle with lush greenery and flowers all around and it feels peaceful the moment you arrive. The staff were generally nice, especially the Chinese-speaking lady. The rooms are quite spacious, with two large double beds that were very comfortable, and relatively clean given the remote location. They also offer shuttle buses to and from town, though these are limited and require advance booking. On the downside, the remoteness creates some challenges. The shuttle requires early wake-ups and long waits as the day tours start later, and there isn’t much to do in town once you arrive. Prices at the resort are very high compared to town, and they charge extra when paying with Alipay or WeChat in Chinese yuan as instead of local currency they charge in Chinese yuan with elevated rates, which felt unfair. Also the room’s roof material made the rain extremely loud. During our stays,it rained all nights during, and even earplugs didn’t fully help with the sound. Breakfast was also limited and not great in quality. Overall, the hotel has a lovely setting and comfortable rooms, but advertising it as 5-star felt misleading. It’s more like a 3–3.5 star experience. Worth visiting if you want the location and nature, but be aware of the extra costs and limitations.

The room was spacious and comfortable. The owner was a lovely and friendly young lady who spoke fluent Chinese. There were several small supermarkets nearby, making things very convenient. The ice cream was also delicious and inexpensive. If you're interested, you should definitely check it out!

The location is good, close to the fish market and there's a big supermarket nearby. The room is clean. It was a bit noisy at night with dogs fighting outside. The air conditioning was slow to cool down, but it was fine to go grab a meal while waiting for it to kick in. For the price, it really met our expectations. The elevator was big enough, which was nice. The staff even took us to the fish market to find a currency exchange place. The service was genuinely great.

Finally checked into the Jellyfish Water Bungalow, and the real-life views are even more stunning than the photos! The crystal-clear 'jellyfish' ocean is visible to the naked eye, and you can snorkel right off your balcony and encounter many small marine creatures. The room was clean and comfortable, and the net bed added a fantastic vibe. Our butler communicated smoothly in Chinese and provided excellent service. Falling asleep to the sound of the waves and watching the sunrise and sunset made for an unforgettable overwater experience in Semporna. Highly recommended!

Stayed here for less than 24 hours since our night flight arrived Tawau 8.30pm, and then airport transfer to Semporna took about 1.5 hours. Called the hotel earlier informing that we will be arriving late, and there are still receptionist waiting for us to check in. They even helped us bring our bags to the room. Only few things lacking - the aircond is not too cold, and then the water shower is too hot 🫠 we are too tired to complaint so we just accept it. Location wise very very strategic. Very near to jetty and got watsons, guardian, 7e, mart, halal restaurant.
