- Imran (10/5): -
- Wong Hsiao Hsien (8/5): -
- Anisa (6/5): -
- Wendy (9/5): A visit to this - We wanted a place to stay near the Mari Mari Cultural village and booked this accommodation at the last moment. We were so pleased we stayed here. The view alone is fantastic. We were very pleased with all aspects of our stay.
- Michael (8/5): -
- Yun (8/5): satisfactory - The breakfast too short of a variety, Example for hot drinks, beside just tea cater also coffee and maybe milk. Upon early arrival, while waiting for check-in , is better you could provide complementary drink
- Felix (10/5): Amazing view of sunset. - I like the view, and also the food, a lot of choices, and also because I have been upgrade from standard room to superior room, and its quite spacious. Nothing,everything is great. š
- Daniel (7/5): Good -
- Vitus (6/5): With some investment especially on repair works/renovation, im sure kasih sayang resort can be great again. proper m - Setup is good, which privacy is the utmost consideration. Family room quite big and comfortable, nevertheless the facility seems lack of maintenance. We were staying at room 118 which suppose overlooking Kota Kinabalu night scenary. Unfortunately, due to overgrown trees infornt, we could not see that clearly.
- Auda (9/5): Superb -
- Rajin (5/5): Short getaway. - Views, hot water in bathroom, friendly staff Too many steps(unsuitable for elderly/handicapped). Some steps and handrails(if have) also too steep.
Bedsheet not clean, water ponding in bathroom, rain water entering room under front door, generally rundown property, tv reception intermittent/no reception, next room smoking/vape at balcony(blew over), slippery paths due rain
- Faizal (6/5): Pleasant - Weather at location, view No facility, no entertainment. TV not function. Room dirty many die insect. Far from town and to buy food ect.
- Darren (5/5): Decent but Wasted Potential - We personally like the staff for their friendliness and service during our overnight stay! The view from the restaurant is amazing especially at night where you can see the entire kota kinbalu city lighting up. The entire place was run down without any proper maintenance from the management of the resort. Some of the wooden planks feel soft and not very safe to step on as it can break at any time. One of our room's door knob was broken and unable to lock it. The place had so much potential to be another great spot than Kokol Haven.
Basic amenities like towels were not provided for 1 of our rooms. (We had requested from the staff but it seems like they're too busy and forgotten due to short staff.)
- Zarina (8/5): Very good -
- Rosnani (6/5): Overall Good - The view so nice add a sign board for the resort
- Alma (8/5): Very good -
- Judith (7/5): Nice view of the city - Good breakfast Cleanliness of the bathroom and the stairs to the room
- Gerry (9/5): A fantastic break from KK city. - Excellent staff who looked after us very well indeed and are so friendly. The food was very good as well. The view of KK city was excellent. The dogs outside were fine and I stroked them. Don't provoke them though. (Who would do that anyway?) We ordered American breakfast which was average, but I should have ordered mee goring which looked really tasty. We left with great memories.
- Mahzirah (9/5): Superb -
- Mizley (9/5): Superb -
- Peter (10/5): - Great place with nice rooms and beautiful view (both to Mt Kinabalu and Kota Kinabalu). Standard Malaysian breakfast and decent lunch and dinner menu. Staff was very friendly and helpful. The room (104) was very good although there are a few ants around (so make sure not to leave food around). Bed, shower and toilet were nice and clean. Internet worked quite well (not guaranteed in this area). Our best place in Sabah so far (out of 6 good hotels).
- Jafni (7/5): it was good but needs improvement - the resort itself was good, food was really good, the view is amazing. some of the steps arenāt maintained properly, the water temperature for shower doesnāt last long for heat before it goes back cold.
- Jerry (9/5): Superb -
- Brandon (9/5): Superb -
- Nurzulaikha (8/5): Very good - Beautiful scenery
- Mei (8/5): Good view resort - Nature environment No refrigerator
- Imezz (7/5): Nice breakfast, great facility & value for money - Good breakfast & quiet palces. Nice for relaxing Capaian internet kurang memuaskan
- Daryl (5/5): Passable - Breakfast was okay. Love the fried noodles. Staffs were very helpful. Love the view and cool atmosphere. Quite relaxing. Tv, water heater and shower functioning well. The room was somehow dusty. Mattress got dust and traces of hair. Ceiling fan was squeaky and seems loose on the ceiling macam bila2 masa boleh jatuh. Please fix the fan and PLEASE wipe all the dust on the mattress, bed, floor, wall. My little son and I were having a hard time sleeping due to the accumulated dust in the room. Non stop runny nose, cough and sneeze.
And one more thing, wifi not functioning.
- Belfaqeeh (7/5): Good -
- S (8/5): Very good -
- Lim (4/5): Disappointing -
- Yeye (6/5): Pleasant - the light at the balcony is not working, the balcony door also cannot lock š„² we ask the staff to repair both the light and the lock but the staff say lock can be repair but the light cannot. The staff said the light is not working from yesterday. so why didnt you repair before customer check in ? and the receptionist also didnt tell us about that. if she tell, i would request another room . so here i want to ask the staff why would you didnt check first the room before customer check in ?
- Siacarol (7/5): Good - The view and the breezes Cleanliness need to improve,
- Kurin (9/5): Superb -
- Hastery (8/5): Very good -
- S10ley (10/5): Exceptional - Room was nice and the view is amazing..
- Rozanna (1/5): This is our first time using the family room. It was horrible due to extremely bad maintenance of the toilet. It was dis - View of KK city Toilet was dirty. Drainage clogged. Water didnt drain properly. Toilet gets flooded after shower. Toilet bowl was not properly and efficiently working. Room in bad condition w droppings. The jacuzzi should be removed. Poor air circulation.
- Kwan (10/5): - Need wheel chair access
- Muhammad (9/5): almost perfect - size portion of food, cleanliness of the room, size of room, staff.
- Su (9/5): Rejuvenating and relaxing - Booked another room for my parents to stay with me. I got a free upgrade of room!
Staff is helpful and friendly.
- Su (9/5): Rejuvenating and relaxing - Very peaceful⦠beautiful scenery⦠good for solitude and reflections⦠best for sunrise at the top! Hmm transport going down to town maybe difficult to get, but itās still worth it!
- Gabriele (5/5): Passable - The resort is immersed in nature up in the mountains, with a great view of Kota Kinabalu from the balconies of the rooms. The rooms are not luxurious, but they are acceptable for the price paid. It's nice to sit on the balcony and look at the view. I arrived after 9 pm the first night, and the restaurant was already closed, but the staff were still kind enough to make me a sandwich. While the views are great, the place is really isolated. It's impossible to get a car using Grab, and a car arranged by the staff will take a long time to arrive and cost a lot more.
The food in the restaurant is not particularly good, although the prices are reasonable. What's more, it's pretty much impossible to eat anywhere else. The nearest restaurant is a ten minute walk away, but at night it's completely dark and there are dogs barking at you, so walking there is not very pleasant.
The wifi only worked on the balcony of my room, but not really inside the room (they had warned me in advance that it was unstable). The staff were polite and friendly, but there was often no one at the reception, and it was hard to get hold of someone.

- Micole (7/5): great trip but might not do it again - It is cold. The view is really nice. The rooms were quite spacious. The water heater works š The staffs were really friendly and very helpful!!! They did offer us to switch to 2 smaller rooms which we had to decline because it was late at night and we were lazy to pack and move. There isnāt a parking lot so you will have to park on the side of the road (but if your car has strong brakes then no big deal) The room we stayed in had problems with its electricity which causes it to jump, we fixed it so many times till the point we gave up and slept with no electricity and showered with no heater. The toilet in our room couldnāt be flushed properly so we had to use the bin as a bucket to do so. At night because our room didnāt have a fan so we slept with the window open which kept us up all night because of the noise of the zinc banging (it was a windy night). They also knew that the room had electrical problems so we would have appreciated it if they informed us prior during check-in.
