2025 Labuan Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in March)

Went on a three-day escape to Labuan. Checked into Labuan Point Hotel upon arrival, we had our dinner on the hotel's rooftop restaurant. The rooftop boasted with breathtaking views of Labuan Town, and the view of the sunset was simply magical. While Labuan is renowned for the duty free shopping, we were more focused on relaxing and indulging in local cuisine. So second day we moved on to Palm Beach Resort (a bit far from Town) for check in and relax ourselves for the rest of the trip. Actually there are lot of things to do in Labuan but because we've been here several times, we decided to just relax and didnt explore as much. We're still satisfied with the escape here, enjoying the peace of mind it brings. #mymymemories

A bit far from the city area but beautiful place for relaxation and perfect place to have a quality time together with your loved ones. The hotel location serounded by the local residents and easy access to Pantai Manikar recreational area. spend nice evening walk along the beach area and testing food from the local cafe along the Pantai manikar . #trip #labuan #shortvacay

Located at quiet part of town but as long as the food quality is good the distance is not a problem. Easily accessible parking space and quick responsive waiters.

Try out the Korean restaurant for the first time in Labuan. Surprisingly it's the food is nice and taste good. serving portion is big for most of the dishes. kimchi stew is really spicy 😋. would like to try the Chicken UFO next time.

Miss Mary brown for last 3 years. finally can have it and really love the foods. especially the cheesy fries 🍟 😋. my daughter love the chicken burger so much flavors. my neice and nephew had chicken burger and MB Nasi Lemak and the chicken is so juicy and tender. would visit soon. Am impressed also have drive thru set up infront of Mary Brown as well. well done MB. 👏

recommended one of best Western food with huge serving portion. grilled half Boneless chicken with black pepper sauce almost can't finish it 😅. fish and chips are juicy and portion enough for 1 pax. the tiara sandwiches taste juicy with the chicken and turkey ham with vegetables. would come again

Everytime back to Labuan surely will visit this seafood. especially with best sunset view. fresh seafood and portion are huge too. we can finished the crabs and have to pack home 🏡.

A great place to have a chill weekend getaway. The place is located about 10 mins from the Labuan Airport, and roughly 20-30 mins from the town. The place is wonderful for those who like beaches and the sun! THE SUNSET WAS BEAUTIFUL!! However, the areas are quite dirty and tons of leaves in the hallway, but I don’t mind since it is a resort when there are a lot of greens! Hehehe. The room was big enough to accommodate 3 people and 3 beds! However, my time there was limited, I didn’t get the chance to roam around the town and the resort itself! The only negative side of my time there was, that the customer service was bad and slow, the amenities were not enough, where one time I asked for a laundry bag, but they gave a rubbish black plastic instead. The pool was closed, and there were no water and electricity for an hour while I was staying there. Overall, I am sure the place is better and the customer service is great! would go back there if I have the chance. #naturalwonders #beaches #gooutside

Patau-patau water village located in Labuan not far from the Labuan Town arrive in the evening, we can see the kids searching for crab the house is unique, some have renovated their house, like a terrace house but on the water! the villagers also like to plant a tree in their house, have a cat as their pet, they use motorcycles as transport, I'm just wondering where they park their cars They also have taxi water for transport. totally a must visit place in Labuan. #labuan #pataupatauvillage #labuantourism
