"Need to improve on the cleanliness of the kitchen. Inspect the kitchen utensils, the water filter is leaking, the dish soup is non-existent, the drying rack left in the kitchen cupboard to house insects, the living room sofa leather was teared apart. The amenities advertised includes water bottles, but when asked for it from the staff on site, it’s not provided as complimentary. The bedroom door cannot be locked for some room, there’s stain on every bed and bedsheets. Overall the 3 bedroom...

Frequently asked questions

What is the best area to stay in Api-Api Centre?
The best area to stay in Api-Api Centre is the city centre itself, particularly around Jalan Tun Razak and the waterfront.

This area is the heart of Api-Api Centre, offering a blend of modern amenities and easy access to local attractions. It's very walkable, with most hotels, shopping centres, and restaurants concentrated within a few blocks. The waterfront promenade, known as Anjung Senja, is a central feature, superb for evening strolls.

For solo travellers, staying in the city centre is ideal due to its convenience. You'll find a wide selection of eateries, from local hawker stalls to international restaurants, and many shops. The main jetties for island hopping are also easily accessible from this area, making day trips straightforward.

Couples looking for a comfortable and convenient stay will appreciate the city centre's offerings. Many hotels here provide excellent facilities, often including pools with city or sea views.
When is the best time to go to Api-Api Centre?
The best time to go to Api-Api Centre, Sabah, is generally during the dry season, which runs from March to October.

During these months, you'll experience less rainfall and plenty of sunshine, making it ideal for exploring the city and its surrounding attractions. The weather is consistently warm, superb for outdoor activities like island hopping to Tunku Abdul Rahman Marine Park or wandering through the Waterfront area. This period also offers excellent visibility for diving and snorkelling trips.

For those planning a trip focused on outdoor adventures and enjoying the beaches, May to July are particularly good. While still within the dry season, the humidity can be slightly lower, making daytime excursions more comfortable.
