Resorts in Kudat

"The staffs were all extremely accommodating! We bought a mango along our road trip from Kota Kinabalu to Kudat and wanted to ask if we could borrow some utensils to cut it. Turns out, not only did the kitchen staff helped us cut the mango, it was then served nicely on a plate (covered hygienically with a clean-wrap when we asked to have it in our room instead of the dining hall). All without a single extra charge! Kudos to all the staffs! You are the reason why this was one of the best stay I have ever had across the world :)"

"Beautiful small villa huts equipped with working airconditioners and electric-gas hot water shower (if u need one) located by the beach. The place is clean and there is a small fridge too. At the beach we were able to snorkel in knee to thigh depth crystal clear water. There are sea gardens and rock formations along the beach. This made it fun for families with children. We saw the stars in the sky especially by the beach (away from the garden lights). There is no mobile phone reception, so this would be a great place to detox from the mobile phone and gadgets, though saying that they have a satellite wifi at the lounge area. (cuts off every 30 minutes). The food from the lounge / restaurant could use improvement. I wont say any more that. Next time i will buy seafood and barbecue it on the beach. I do recommend visiting here, it is a wonderful retreat and good place to return to after exploring kudat area. Will visit there again."

"This is definitely a beautiful place set at a beautiful location. Bear in mind that this faces the sea on a hill rather than attached to the beach directly. Nevertheless, it is indeed beautiful, exotically set up with simple but meaningful decorations. Ground staff were excellent, friendly and professional. Not to forget the cold lime welcome drink on a hot sunny day. BUT, my biggest grouse is that the staff from headquarters called to inform me that my booking was cancelled while I was having lunch in Kudat before check-in. And the calling staff did not even apologize or state the actual reason as the check in time was till 6pm and I received the call at 2.15pm. I was actually given an option to stay in the town in a 2 star hotel which I felt was insulting for a vacation that was planned at the beachside. However things were resolved after some stern feedback was given. I really wish this will not happen in future. Other than that one dark incident, everything else is beautiful! "

"The Maranjak Longhouse Hotel is optimal for a short stay.The hotel stuff looked very well after us and entertained us with Rungus games in the evening. We also enjoyed the Rungus dinner very much. It would be nice, if they would offer also bikes for children!! I also think there jungle tour need lots of improvement!!!"
