We couldn’t have asked for a better resort to enjoy the beauty of Borneo. The property grounds are lovely and well maintained. The food provided is delicious and plentiful. The staff always greet guests with a smile and are eager to assist them with their activities for the day. The ocean surrounding the resort is absolutely beautiful. They also have a well-maintained jungle pathway that is a must to hike and explore. This is definitely a resort we will return to again.

Mel and Natasha are great hosts. I would certainly recommend the secluded Beachaaven chalet if you are up for an adventure. They cooked us things that we went and bought in the market. The beautiful seafront is a step out of the chalet. Ask Mel to drop you off on the island infront where you could do snorkelling and kayak. It's 5 min boat ride from the chalet. They are very accommodative to your needs. Below items need attention : 1. The chalet is secluded 5 minutes boat ride from the shore. The boat is a dingy and if you are worried about sea then you need to ask for life jackets. 2. You need to pay attention to the time of arrival in Kota Belud jetty as it is 2 / 3 hours drive from kota Kinabalu. The tide is key because it might be that the time you arrive it's low tide and you need to carry the luggages to the boat walking on the shore. It is also not suitcase friendly unless you ready to carry it. 3. Avoid night flights or after 6pm arrival at the jetty. It was pitch dark and there are no lights. Luckily it was full moon and we had clear visibility. 4. As it is secluded place there is no electricity in the chalet. There is only a fan for the night. Bring a power bank or ask Natasha to charge the phone. 5. Internet connection is not available. You might get some network if you are near the seafront. 6. There are sand flies, recommend bringing sand fly spray. 7. Food and drinks are basic. However, Mel and Natasha cooked us food that we requested. We did the above with 3 kids 2-4 years + 2 children and 4 adults.

It's a cosy home where you can sit by the garden, relax and read with Mt Kinabalu in the background on a good day. Both landlord and helper are super friendly and helpful. Location was close to town. Hot/cold water available and fridge for you to keep your food and beverage. Landlord even offered to send and pick us up from Bongol Hill!🫶

Nice place, away from everything. Reaching the lodge by boat was an adventure by itself. Basic but nice bungalow with beautiful views. We liked the shared area (the views!!) and we liked sharing meal time and chatting with other guests. Wifi only at the shared area. Not in the bungalows. Due to the location, electricity is only available at certain time of the day but fans work all day and night.

The location is stunning and there was loads to do. Me and my mom don't dive but we snorkelled and kayaked, hiked and just chilled out on the beach. It's so quiet and makes you feel like you had your own private beach. In saying that, the common area was great and so nice to speak to loads of people. The staff were so kind and 100% on it. The food was amazing!!
