The Aru Hotel, located in Tanjung Aru, is conveniently situated near Tanjung Aru Beach and Kota Kinabalu International Airport.
However, the soundproofing is not great, and you might occasionally hear the sound of flight engines from your room.
The amenities are comprehensive, featuring a spacious room, kitchen area, bar table, TV with Netflix, hairdryer, and safe. The washroom is well-maintained, and the shower gel smells good. Complimentary parking is also available.
However, there is no restaurant on-site. The breakfast provided is very simple and delivered to your room.

Purposely pick at the sea view room for the stay. It did not disappoint me. The room is okay, as we mostly spend our time outside more than in the room. Just during sleeping, there is a loud noise coming from above which affected our sleep. Which we couldn’t rest well but overall is okay. The host is kind and try to help. Thank you

The room was clean & spacious, got 2x small mineral water so if stay more than one night your need to buy more mineral water, there have a 24h shop just behind lobby. The only weird is the main door connected into two studio door and its small space at main door you have to hold everything to open another door and your can hear someone enter the other room and make feel uncomfortable.

The room is very clean and tidy. They provide basic amenities. They collect RM50 for deposit and return after checkout (only receive cash). Nearby many restaurants so easy to find food. Smooth checkin and the staff very accommodating.
Minor: the drain in the bathroom draining VERY slow, so we shower with ‘flooded’ floor. The hotel should check if there is clogging.

Front desk service is best, friendly with most smiling face, always greeting and friendly chat to customer, bedding matters a bit soft and some spring is not well in condition, but ovell room amenities is good. However, I really wondered why a 5 stars Hotel the restaurant all size plate, bowl, even cups are so so oily, sticky, food mark, stains on almost all pieces of them, I keep on looking for more clean one but sad to said is no one is clean, really very sticky and oily, hope the restaurant can look serious on this matter, I can said I never seen such dirty plate, even I go to 2 or 3 star hotel, the plate is more clean then Le Meridien, but food and beverage is good, I love the service can custome order our favourite fresh fruit juice and coffee

The hotel hardware is super good. Clean, new, classy. Service is good too except there are some communication breakdowns between concierge and housekeeping. Breakfast is excellent, with vast variety of food choice. Location is good too close to shopping malls but not the perfectly central location in the city and not close to beach. Overall its a wonderful stay.

SSteven D.Lovely hotel, a little old (it opened in 1977) but you can feel it has got a lot of character. Kudos to EVIS from Bell Service, he’s a humble gentlemen who loves to engage with his guests. He assisted me with my luggage and escorted me to my room. He knows the hotel inside out and loves to share his insights. Also a shout out to MARY from front desk, she is amazing. She is multi functional with assisting me to check-in PLUS helping me with concierge matters regarding my flight ticket. Exceptional staff. Thank you for having me!

DDG1Stayed two nights in a seaview room. Room was clean, mattress and pillows fresh and comfortable, and the view was outstanding. Food and service at the hotel restaurant Cafe Boleh and the poolside restaurant was good. We had thin-crust pizza by the pool both days. Only disappointment, Cafe Boleh ran out of fish for ”fish and chips” on the 2nd day when we tried to order it for dinner.

MMr TravellerNice hotel to stay but on basic need as they claimed they area trying their best in accommodating patron's need with affordable room rate. So all amenities will charged according to our need.
BBernard SchumacherLocation is great but the place itself looks old, there's a slight leakage in the room that we booked due to the heavy rain, the bathroom looks old. Service is fine, they do provide nice breakfast. Suggestion for improvement would be to renovate the place and make it look newer. One thing I really hate was the traffic noise in the middle of the night, I had a hard time sleeping because I kept on listening to those motorbike that always keep on passing by the hotel with their loud exhaust which really made it hard for me to sleep.

BBenjamin Sch.The Borneo Beach Villa is an unbeatable spot for a nice calm vacation. The beach is just beautiful although you fill find plastic stuff here and there. For younger (and older) children it’s perfect since the waterline is flat and you can walk easily 30-50 meters into the water. The waves are nice. there is no lifeguard on duty but you don't need one.
Don’t expect a new hotel for this price. We had nice beach front villa at the southern end of the site. At low tide you could walk the stays directly into the water, at high tide you need to go to the beach 100-200m. The sunset is beautiful. Hotel location would be 10 of 5 stars!
Make sure your Grab app works so you can order food since the restaurant is quite pricy for the offerings. Also getting away with a taxi will need some time and Grab. Go shopping and bring your own snacks and drinks upfront to enjoy the evenings. The breakfast is okay for the 3 days we stayed there but lacks some variety. They have a nice egg station for omelette and other things.
You are in nature so you need to be prepared for mosquitoes, sandflies and a cockroach here and there. But this is nothing which is really dramatic and can happen at the best places. We had all required sprays and used them when necessary. Some outdoor mosquito smoke lamps can also be useful.
Overall the family was very happy about our time there. The house is older but all items were functional. In case of support the technician was there in 15-30 minutes.
For the low price it’s a good place with a wonderful beach but if you don’t want to compromise quality furnishings or need nightlife this is not a suitable spot.
