Highlights

Golf: 27-hole Graham Marsh-designed course

Rooms: 500 spacious accommodations

Dining: Breeze Beach Club for sunset views

Business: 71,000 square feet of event space

Location: Near major attractions of Kota Kinabalu

“In Kota Kinabalu, this property's direct access to extensive marina facilities and an adjacent hotel's amenities definitely adds value for families. I noted the convention facilities are among the largest in South East Asia, while a dedicated kids' club addresses family needs; however, some may find the service levels inconsistent for a five-star experience. On balance, the location and amenities create a viable option, despite reported maintenance and service inconsistencies.”
