As a long-distance couple that can only meet with one another once every one to two months, choosing where to celebrate my girlfriend's birthday was even more important for me, and I can say with full confidence that I did not choose wrong in staying at Shangri-la Rasa Ria. I contacted them prior to my visit about possibly helping me out with planning a surprise and celebrating the birthday, and the staff were all extremely supportive and cooperative in planning out the details. On the day of the surprise, we originally had planned to have them organized at one of the outdoor bars overlooking the sunset, but because of heavy rain, the staff all helped me reorganize them at the lobby bar, with the band singing the Happy Birthday Song together with the staffs and the other hotel guests joining in. The overall experience was also absolutely wonderful, and we enjoyed the 4 nights we stayed there. Perhaps if there is one thing to keep in mind, it would be its location, as it is situated about an hour's drive from the airport and the city center (if not more depending on the traffic).

We spent 3 nights at Gaya Island Resort and had a great time, I thought I would write a review because there are a few things worth considering before you go. Firstly, the place itself is amazing, the staff are super friendly and caring - probably the most professional I have ever experienced in my many years of travelling. So all in all it was a wonderful stay. The things worth noting are as follows: 1. The sunbeds, I think may have mentioned it and it's worth mentioning again - there are nowhere near enough. When you pay and arm and a leg to stay at a beautiful resort it is annoying that they haven't found a way to add more sunbeds. People get there early, throw on their towels and stay or disappear and the seat is gone for the day. This is a solvable issue and the resort should so something about it. 2. Check in is after 3 - could be later - and it's not flexible, so if you are arriving earlier be prepared to sit around waiting for your room. It would be nice if they could flex a little as waiting hours for a room without your bags is not a joy, but it is what it is. 3. Eating - you are on the resort, so you are eating in one of their restaurants - no other options available. There are a few restaurants so not really a problem (we did the hot pot restaurant and it was great), but good to be aware. By far the most expensive places we ate in Malaysia, but I guess given the quality of the resort it wasn't a surprise and the main restaurant is reasonable enough. 4. Activities - my wife and daughter did the cooking class and loved it, we did the night walk - which was fun and me and my son did the coral garden. The Coral garden was fun and I was lucky to see a big old shark. However there is a large amount of plastic floating on the surface of the water that is quite concerning and makes the whole place not feel so clean. The corals and fish look healthy so may be fine, but be prepared to swim through bottles and crisp bags to see the fish. The local resorts and local authorities should really work together to resolve and you pay the tourist tax, so not sure where that's going, but not to plastic clearance by the look of it. Hope that's helpful. all in all, it's a beautiful place to stay, could just do with a tweak here and there to make it even better

My Husband and I had previously stayed at the Nexus resort in 2016 and fell in love with this resort so decided to revisit for our mini honeymoon in April this year. We booked a garden view room with a free upgrade to an Ocean panorama room. The view from the room was beautiful. House keeping came every day couldn’t fault them, beds made and provided fresh bottles of drinking water each day. room has several USB ports in the desk which came in handy when our travel adapter didn’t work. However we did encounter a few hick-ups with the room. We spent 2 days without water in our room, and one with no hot water in the shower- once we were informed about due to maintenance, the second time there was no explanation for what had happened. Hot and sweaty from humid Malaysian weather our only option was a shower in the garden wing which apparently still had water- reception offered us a buggy from reception to the garden wing for a shower, however to apologise for the lack of water we were eventually offered after calling 3 times to find out why there was no water, we were offered a free dinner & invite to their cocktail hour at the Nexus club, which was quite nice. Happy Hour- every bar & restaurant had a happy hour- which according to the sign on the noticeboard it was 5-7 every day, however when we went to each of these bars they had a sign saying happy hour was a different time, so it got quite confusing they should really update these signs. Beds were comfy enough two types of pillows one hard and one soft, options to order more pillows through the “-Roomie App” which is also meant to contain movies and TV shows in the app which you then stream to the TV, however we weren’t Able to get this connected, so didn’t have any TV as normal TV channels were just static. Rooms are very dated and could use some maintenance. Pool temperature was amazing, and we had the pool to ourselves most days. Spa was closed for maintenance and looked like it had been for awhile which was sad. The pool itself needs needs some upkeep as the bottom of the pool was coming up, splashes pool bar didn’t appear to be open, last time we loved enjoying cocktails in the pool. Room rates included a buffet breakfast, that had a great selection malay dishes, fruit, cereal and pastries. Only downside is most of the time the hot dishes were very cold despite being in a warmer. Location: resort is located about 40 minutes away from the city- so if you plan to see things in Kota Kinabalu city be prepared to spend money on grab, taxi or use of the resort transportation to the city for 35RM pp each way. My advice is use the Taxi Limousine service MR Din is a lovely taxi driver at the nexus and his rates are very reasonable. Resort Activities: the resort offers on site activities to keep both adults and kids entertained such as nature walks, coconut leaf weaving & cooking classes. There is also paid options such as jet ski rides, kayak rides & ATV rides. Room service: we tr

My partner and I really like this place very spacious room,bed is good but the ac is not that cold and some of the inside room structure really needed attention to be repaired,such as the bathroom some of the lights didn't work inside the room but the room got good window and the view in the morning is nice located at very quiet part of the town parking for car is a lot and convinient hotel also close to many convinient store around receptionist is very professional attending customer and friendly check in instructions are very clear and easy will look forward for future stay.

Nothing much that i can say. my family and I have amazing stay at Borneo Beach Villa karambunai for 3 days 2 night. The villas is clean, the pool is clean and the beach is so beautiful. My family really enjoy with the stay. However the reason i give. 4 star because our villa has some of broken chair at table outside and the door is very hard to open because of rusty. I think maybe the villa itself is too old. Mybe it just our villa not sure with another. It will be nice if they can check regularly maintenance for each villa Some of things need to remind while you in here: 1. Villas doesnt have WIFI. Only have at receptionist, thus if you want to do work while chilling make sure you bring your own wifi. 2. Make sure to buy any groceries that you want before reach to villa because the distant with mart is far away they didnt have their own mart, only restaurant 3. This villa didnt provide any lobby service. But aboVe all that we are really enjoy staying here.

Very disappointed..I don't know why you staff say the remote tv gone.!!!!then I loose my deposit RM50,,,for those bastard staff,,if U want took d RM50,just let me know and don't claim or charged me like a thief to stole U remote tv... Just let those person who check my room that time,,I won't let U go so easily...”berani buat berani tanggung,tolong jangan menyesal...”

Decided to try this capsule since I was travelling alone + had great experience staying capsule hotels throughout Japan. Good location, rather central, Starbucks & convenience store just downstairs. Paid an average of just S$11 per night, great value considering breakfast is included, though a simple one with bread/ jam spreads/ instant coffee. Washing machine free to use, but your clothes are never really dry since its cramped together with someone else’s wet laundry next morning. The capsules themselves are made from cheap plastic, squeaks loudly every time you move, absolutely nothing like those I stayed througouht Japan, plus the blue themed lights made it even harder to sleep. Wi-fi signal is pretty bad from within the capsule. Spent 3 nights here before moving to the newly built 5-star Marriott across the street.

This is the first and the last time we check in this Inn. Obviously can hear loud noise from outside from the room. Staffs voice are horrendously loud, howling laughing like no body business when it's already late at night. Played loud music until late night. Room are not sound proof, you can practically hear people conversation from outside and people walking around upstairs. Unless you can bear with all these by all means you can check in here.
