Our take

A sprawling Bornean sanctuary where heritage luxury meets the South China Sea, renowned for delivering some of the most spectacular sunset views in Southeast Asia. It masterfully balances high-touch family amenities with secluded, spa-centric tranquility.

Notable Features

  • Exclusive STAR Marina offering private boat transfers to the pristine Tunku Abdul Rahman Marine Park
  • The iconic Sunset Bar, perched on a private peninsula for unrivaled South China Sea vistas

💡 Insider Tip

"Reserve a VIP overwater seating area at the Sunset Bar well in advance, and request a Kinabalu Wing Seaview room for unobstructed ocean panoramas."
