The food was great, and the swimming pools were very nice. There were also plenty of activities to enjoy — a game room, a VR room, and even a small cinema. We also booked some water activities with Star Marine. We definitely plan to come back again. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/28bc8838-6ed0-42b9-b662-268ad92d2756-1755726191178.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Coco Grill](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/6ad5fb29-4da8-45f4-baf7-006f788307cc-1755726191429.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Sunset Bar](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/1aff0599-9b8a-4483-93a2-e78b7e1396d1-1755726191434.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/8872437c-046a-4829-8b32-390202d47c7d-1755726191262.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Miao Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Hong Nhung Lynda 28 May 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities The Shangri-La was a beautiful well kept resort which was so family friendly.

The site itself is beautiful and really well appointed. The views are stunning, and sunset just sensational. Well worth the cost to enjoy the sunset bar. Food options are great - we used most of these during our stay. The breakfast is wonderful, with a great range to cater to all tastes. The main thing that makes this place amazing though is the staff. All our interactions with staff were fantastic. Haniff over in food and beverages will do whatever he can to make your stay special - and has an incredible memory for the details of the guests. Brandon who took care of us on our hotel organised trip to Sapi Island was fantastic - knowledgeable, kind to our daughter, and made sure we got out to the reef to snorkel before it was understandably closed due to low tide. All staff, from those in the kids water area and in the games room, to those looking after your room and helping with bags, were great. We'd stayed right before coming to this hotel at another, big, "5 star" place not far away - also with nice features - but what makes the difference is how you are made to feel at Shangri-La Tanjang Aru. That is what made our holiday. (I can only hope that the hotel managers do not expand further and risk losing what makes this place special. There is a pretty warehouse for people wanting to take instagram photos up the road - keep this place the treasure it is!) ##### Faith Stayed 4 nights in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Lachezar 18 Mar 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Great hotel and accommodation.

From the moment we walked up the steps to the sound of the gong ,cool towels and refreshing drinks- friendly and accommodating staff - we knew we were in for a treat . Hotel surrounds and pool are beautiful , the yoga class in the morning right next to the water was a lovely way to start the day. Food plentiful and delicious with a huge variety of dishes. Always something going on and yet blissful places to be still and relaxed. The staff are always smiling and will go out of their way to help .Best 4 days we have spent in a long time - we will be back for sure - terima kasih Shangri La Tanjung Aru for a wonderful stay . ##### lesley Stayed 4 nights in Sep 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Michael 7 Nov 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Stayed in Tanjung ocean view which got nice sunset view. All staff- room service, breakfast room , pool area, are all excellent. Check in was good, got upgrade . Pool was very old but maintained very well and clean. Beach area was not that good. Breakfast got everything, fresh juice, fruits pomelo etc. noodle sections. As mentioned before by others late check out is not allowed even when hotel is less than a third full. We were given “ star lounge access for staying on but as mentioned by others nothing in there except toilets. ##### Michael Stayed 3 nights in Nov 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Nicholas James 25 Nov 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities I have traveled the world many times. Over 1,000,000 miles in the air last I checked. I have stayed in slums and I have stayed in resorts. This is the best place I have stayed by far and for a great price. The food was great, staff was very friendly and attentive, all spoke English pretty well. The room service was divine and the buffets were insanely assorted and delicious. It is a short boat ride to different islands for snorkeling and water activities. Additionally if you upgrade you get access to free food and alcohol for afternoon tea and adults time in the restaurant. They also have so many activities for children and you can drop your child around 11am and have that romantic vacation you have been wanting while your kids play. ##### Nicholas James Stayed 3 nights in Nov 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Barbara 2 Nov 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service We loved the property with one exception: despite complaining nothing was done about the fact that we had only cold water in the shower for four days. ##### Barbara Stayed 4 nights in Oct 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### LEE 15 Sept 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities 좋음 ##### LEE Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### AZUSA 29 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities ##### AZUSA Stayed 4 nights in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### R 21 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities プールもビーチもすごく良かったです！ ##### R Stayed 1 night in Aug 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### CHI KIN 19 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities My family was very happy for this trips and feel best enviroment in hotel. ##### CHI KIN Stayed 8 nights in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### koji 18 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities コタキナバル空港からgrabで約15分ほど。 古いけど、清掃が行き渡った快適な部屋でした。 スタッフの方々も、親切で感じが良かったです。 朝食は、外の焼きそばなどのメニューが変わる他はほぼ同じ内容でしたが、とても種類が豊富で飽きなかったです。 フルーツもどれもとても甘くて美味しかった。 豪華な朝食を外のテーブルで食べるのは、本当に気持ちよかったです。 客層は、中国人と韓国人が多かったです。 中国人の子供連れがうるさくてリラックス出来ませんでしたが、早目の時間帯に朝食を食べに行っていたお陰か、混雑はするものの、SNSなどで見かける様な汚い食べ方をする人達はいませんでした。 プールでは、部屋番号を言えば、大きくて暖かいタオルやライフジャケットが無料でレンタル出来ます。 オーシャンビューのレストランもとても良かったし、プールサイドには沢山のプルメリアの花が咲いていて、いつもほのかに花の香りがしてて良かったです。 サピ島までのボートは敷地内のマリーナから乗る事が出来て、街中のショッピングモールにも無料のシャトルバスが2時間おきに出ています。 このホテルを選んだお陰で、とても良いコタキナバルの旅行ができました。 またコタキナバルに来る際には、こちらのホテルに泊まりたいと思います。 ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/27c3b88f-afac-4122-88cc-10f229aa6603-1755484473700.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/e867004f-8dd8-485f-9ff3-e6ddb9e1d080-1755484473563.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/18a8e8d0-51dc-4af2-b1a8-89c2a3a702fb-1755484473695.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/f13ff653-57a7-4bfb-8bde-99d1cf0435e1-1755484473824.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### koji Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Nanako 17 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Thanks to the warm hospitality of the hotel staff, our trip became a truly wonderful experience. ##### Nanako Stayed 4 nights in Aug 2025 ### 2/10 Terrible #### ASAMI 14 Aug 2025 ##### ASAMI Stayed 1 night in Aug 2025 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Hotel Stratford San Francisco -
