Mr Bean Holiday Semporna

This place is actually pretty good. Just to be safe, I stayed at Han Do for two nights and then at the Seafest Hotel for two nights. Relatively speaking, the Seafest Hotel is about a one-minute walk from the jetty, whereas Han Do takes about 15-20 minutes by car (though Han Do usually provides transportation). Compared to other hotels in Semporna, Han Do is top-tier. However, when you stack it against the Seafest Hotel, a true five-star hotel, the latter definitely comes out on top. How to put it? If your budget is under 800, definitely go with Han Do. If it's over 800, Seafest Hotel is the way to go. These two, in my personal opinion, are the best and second-best hotels in Semporna.

The hotel environment is great, and the rooms are exceptionally clean. They offer a free shuttle service to and from the pier every day. The food prices are also very reasonable and cater well to local tastes. The owner is incredibly responsive and provides excellent service. I'll definitely be back and have already recommended it to my friends! 👌(｡•̀ᴗ-)✧ PS: It's also super photogenic!

Great service, and the owner is really funny and engaging. The breakfast spread offers a good variety. We bought seafood and had the hotel prepare it for dinner, and it was absolutely delicious – so good that we ate it two nights in a row! What really surprised me was being able to check in and relax before 10 AM because a room was available.

The environment is quite good; for Semporna, this guesthouse is considered decent. The shuttle service is also very thoughtful. The staff are great, but the owner isn't as welcoming – a bit cool. If you ask more than one or two questions, he seems a little impatient. I'm not sure if he doesn't understand or what.

Extremely comfortable, coming back to a good night's sleep after a day of diving is an absolute must. The beds were incredibly comfortable and super clean, with two 1.5-meter beds, making it perfect for families with two kids. It's only about a ten-minute drive from town, and the hotel car offers convenient pick-up and drop-off, usually within ten minutes. Huge thanks to the owner for their thoughtful care; they're a wonderful Chinese host, and communication was seamless. Five-star review!

This place is absolutely top-notch, simply beautiful! You *must* try the breakfast and dinner if you stay here. I highly recommend the spicy beef and the creamy prawns. The owner is incredibly kind, and the overall service quality of the guesthouse is exceptionally high. Staying here boosted the happiness index of our entire trip by 50%; the other 50% was from the ocean! You can tell that the guesthouse was thoughtfully designed and genuinely run with passion.

The best part about this homestay is its genuine hospitality. The owner helped us book a transfer from the airport to the guesthouse, and then provided seamless transportation to the jetty and town, which was a huge relief given the transportation challenges in Semporna. Plus, the seafood prepared by the owner had a delicious Chinese flavor!

It was really hard to book a room here; I refreshed the page for days before finally snagging a single night. The environment was super comfortable, and the room was very clean, with all the toiletries provided. The staff were all very enthusiastic, most of them spoke Chinese, and they offered shuttle service to town anytime. The pool was also heated! Dinner was delicious, and the squid was absolutely amazing. I'll definitely come back if I ever visit Semporna again!

The room was spacious and comfortable. We stayed for three nights, and the room was cleaned and tidied every day, which made us feel very secure. The owner was very friendly and humorous, speaking both Mandarin and Cantonese, making communication very smooth. The best part was the unlimited shuttle service to and from town; they arranged it immediately whenever we asked, without any complaints. Even the driver was very nice and always smiling. It was incredibly convenient, much better than staying in the messy and chaotic town. There's also a pool! I highly recommend this place!
