Staying here was a truly memorable experience. The resort is set in a serene location with a picturesque lake where you can fish and even take a boat ride around. The unique touch of being able to bring your catch to the kitchen and have the chef cook it up for dinner was a real highlight. You can also buy fresh seafood from the local market and ask the chef to prepare it however you like for a very reasonable fee. The food, prepared by the owner and chef who hail from Guangdong, was the best I’ve tasted in Semporna. Each dish was bursting with flavor, showcasing authentic Chinese cuisine at its finest.
The resort is about 15 minutes from Semporna town, but they offer a free shuttle service to and from the town, which makes it incredibly convenient for guests.
At night, there’s outdoor karaoke under the stars, creating a fun and relaxing atmosphere. Overall, the resort had a homely vibe, with the owner and staff going above and beyond to make us feel welcome.
The resort itself is new, and the rooms are spacious, clean, and incredibly comfortable. I felt right at home the entire time. The peaceful surroundings, combined with excellent service and food, made this a perfect getaway.
To note that the staff mainly communicates in Mandarin, so knowing a bit of the language would be helpful.
I stayed here for a night after a 5 day dive trip and this was the perfect place to unwind and relax. I loved my stay so much that I can’t wait to return. Highly recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing retreat in Semporna!

Facilities: Except for the TV, the room is fully equipped and has wireless network.
Hygiene: The sanitation is good, and someone cleans up the garbage every day.
Environment: There are woods all around, but there are not many mosquitoes and the environment is beautiful.
Service: The boss is from Guangdong and is very hospitable. He will take you to the seafood market in the town to bargain and buy seafood for processing every afternoon. The taste is unique and delicious, much better than the Internet celebrity restaurants in the town. The resort will have free vehicles to pick up and drop off at different times every day. It is very convenient. It takes about 15 minutes to drive from the resort to the town.

The boss is really nice. He recommended a good itinerary. The scuba diving is fun. The best thing is their chef. The seafood they bought for you is super fresh and the cooking is also very delicious. If you don't come here with a guide, the boss will recommend fun and delicious food. It's basically a one-stop service. It's about 15 minutes away from the town. There is a special car to pick you up. I personally feel that the hotel environment is one of the best in Semporna. It's comfortable and quiet. The boss is Cantonese and speaks very good Mandarin. He is not a shill!
The key suggestion is that if you want to stay in a water house, don't go to the Coral Sea. It's too dirty and too unpalatable!

Service: I was lucky to book this hotel. The owner is really nice and patiently helps you solve various problems. Because our flight was delayed for more than ten hours, all the itinerary arrangements and hotel reservations had to be adjusted. Fortunately, the hotel owner took the trouble to help arrange and coordinate, which made the entire trip smooth.
Sanitary environment: The hotel's sanitary environment is also quite good, full of negative oxygen ions, quiet and comfortable, and I slept well at night

The boss is super nice. We booked a barrack and a cabin and upgraded them to cabins for free. The hotel is Chinese friendly. Get away from the dirty and messy town of Semporna. You don't have to worry about bedding and other hygiene issues. It is very clean and the mattress is very comfortable. I slept very well for two nights. The environment and ecology are also very good. The indoor facilities are very clean and new. The toilet and bath are all smart. You can return to China with one click. The charging port is also a Chinese charging port and does not need to be converted to the British standard. The boss will also help you bargain when you go to the seafood market. In addition, the seafood processed by the hotel is very delicious. We arrived late on the first day and the boss helped us cook delicious noodles. The boss also helped to book flights and taxis, and gave a lot of help along the way. It was a great trip!

The room is a bit damp, the toilet smells bad, and the overall hygiene is average, but it is still worth staying if you go to Semporna, after all, the hygiene in the town is worrying. The people in the store are very nice, the boss is also very enthusiastic, and can respond to needs in a timely manner. The hotel's external environment is good, suitable for a pastoral vacation, and you can sing karaoke at night, the atmosphere is good. It is worth mentioning that the chef's level is very delicious, and I am very satisfied with this trip.

The environment inside the resort is very beautiful. You can see monkeys and rabbits. In addition, the boss can provide full Chinese services, helping us to book a car from the airport, taking us to the seafood market to bargain, and seafood processing in the resort (the taste is better than outside, dry butter tiger prawns are recommended!). The boss can also recommend food and places to buy durian. If you don’t have enough tips, just ask the boss directly. It’s great.
