    snorkelling experience
    friendly staff
    customized dishes
    boat transfer frequency

    Our stay at the resort was unforgettable, especially snorkelling with my cousin around Gaya Island. The vibrant coral reefs full of colorful fish took our breath away. The staff was genuinely friendly, making our dining experience even more enjoyable with customized dishes.

    My kids wished there were more frequent boat transfers to explore Kota Kinabalu easily.

    excellent spa
    hefty walk

    We had a fantastic stay at Gaya Island, soaking in beautiful views every morning. The staff treated us like royalty, and the spa services exceeded our expectations. The uphill walk to our villa felt like a small price to pay for such breathtaking scenery.
