    beautiful beach views
    friendly staff
    unclean shared toilet

    I had a mighty time enjoying the beach views and the lovely friendly staff throughout my stay. The breakfast spread was grand, too, especially the coffee! On the downside, the shared toilet wasn't too clean in the mornin'.

    The location was amazing, really close to the "tube ", including laptop and Netflix access as well as a virgin island and in front of a mosque and a tower. Also, it was barely a 15-minute walk from Jungle Walks, which was ideal for us.

    Well, Wi-Fi was a bit slow.

    It was in a secluded location, up on hill. Plus, it was close enough to greenery, the "tube ", including laptop and Netflix access, and Kuching;))

    cozy vibe
    friendly staff

    The views from my room were fine, overlooking the sea. I loved the cozy vibe of the converted drainpipe rooms. Swimming in both pools was super relaxing, and the breakfast options were tasty and varied. The staff were friendly and helpful.

    A lot of good food for meals. Well-maintained and new-fashioned room with comfy bed, climate control and a personal safe. Location really close to the beach and surrounding, waterfalls in Santubong national park that begins close to the resort, and nature with a touch of luxury.

    drainage issue
    cleanliness concern

    amazing sunset deck, lovely infinity pool, fine surroundings

    Rooms too small for comfort!!! Poor drainage leading to water accumulation and missing facilities in the room should definitely be addressed!!! Cleanliness of bedding needs serious attention for the high price!!!

    Could be better, read on

    Nestled on a hillside, this spot offered fine views and kind staff that elevated our stay. The pool was refreshing, and sunsets on the nearby beach were amazing. Breakfast was varied and fulfilling. That said, the room was cozy, bordering on cramped. If space is a priority, consider upgrading to a suite.

    tiny room
    poor breakfast

    The room is, quite frankly, embarrassingly small, definitly not for tall people. The breakfast was an absolute joke. I was expecting gourmet, but got instant eggs instead. I was almost ready to leave a glowing review, until I realized no one offered me a complimentary gesture for my discomfort. Really. Such poor service!

    beach bag
    limited breakfast

    enjoyable stay with room for improvement

    The staff were friendly and accommodating. I appreciated the thoughtful inclusion of a beach bag and sandals in the room for outdoor activities. The water pressure in the shower was fantastic and refreshing. The sea view from the beach was a highlight.

    The breakfast selection was quite limited.

    fine sea views
    friendly staff
    limited room space
    repetitive breakfast options
    challenging navigation

    Fine sea views from the room, complemented by refreshing swims in the two lovely pools. The beach area is perfect for capturing beautiful photos at sunset, and the staff's friendliness enhanced the overall experience. A downside was the limited space in the room, made moving around a challenge, especially for taller individuals. The breakfast options, while decent, felt repetitive after a few days.
