Design unit with 4pax 2bedroom at JQ
stay 3 days 2 pm , overall everything is ok, the homestay is the best only thing that lacks parking , parking is for guests so if you want to park in the building you have to pay , if you pay you have to park a little outside, you even want to go up and get a cheap 😂 parking building that's also an hour Rm1 nah matai 😌

Rainforest Home Jit@Git
We traveled with friends, and the six of us (four adults and two kids) stayed at Welyne and Gilles' home during our visit to Sarawak. We all had a wonderful time. The house is situated in a peaceful and scenic location, perfect for relaxing and recharging. It’s also conveniently close to the Semenggoh Wildlife Centre, about a 30-minute drive from downtown. The house itself is well-maintained, comfortable with pool, and very well equipped with everything we needed to feel at home. Welyne and Gilles were excellent hosts—very friendly and accommodating. We especially appreciated the opportunity to learn more about the local culture, enjoy delicious meals, and take part in a durian tasting that Welyne kindly arranged. Thank you for a lovely stay. We hope to visit again in the future!

Picture Perfect Private House on Mabul
It was a super place and my family and I had a very memorable 2 days.Everything including the views, the food, the drinks, and the service were so perfect and everyone of us loved it.Nor is a really great diving instructor, he knows so many snorkeling spots, and although it's not the first time for snorkeling, we reap a new wonderful experience here.Everyone sees the turtles as they wish, as well as a variety of beautiful fish and corals.It's worth mentioning that the food is fantastic, and every meal is delicious and abundant, and my family especially love Nor's well-cooked sea fish and blended lemonade.Also, it's not a pleasure to buy seafood here and the Ba Yao people.I very much like tiger and jiji, tiger relatives are calm, jiji is lively and cute, in such a nice environment, spending time with two small cute, also good memories of our trip.Finally, thank you to all the staff here for everything, they were friendly and attentive.Special thanks to Nor for the tuna meal (he heard that Chinese eat fish when they celebrate the New Year).Would recommend for all to come and experience it was definitely more than I could have imagined and a great value for money.Hope to be back again.

D'Beranda Kasih Homestay Lundu
I would say that the home felt very cosy and a quiet place for family. On top of the all excellent amenities and facilities such as bedroom, bathroom and kitchen, the host really pull an effort to make the place feels like home by providing indoor boardgames such as scrabble, carrom and congkak, which lighten up the moods for my kids. Overall, excellent stay and highly recommended.

LeStarry Homestay

Private Pool House Villa With Sea View
Amazing Family Stay with a Private Pool – Unforgettable Experience! Our family had a fantastic time at Ocean Villa! The private pool was definitely a highlight—our kids spent hours swimming and playing while we relaxed poolside. It made the whole trip feel extra special and private. The villa was spotless, spacious, and perfectly set up for families. We felt right at home with everything we needed, from a well-equipped kitchen to comfortable beds and a safe, peaceful environment. Check-in was super easy, and the host was kind, responsive, and thoughtful throughout our stay. The location was quiet but close enough to restaurants and shops, which made it super convenient for a family trip. This place offered great value and created beautiful memories for us. We’re so glad we chose Ocean Villa and would absolutely love to come back again! Thank you Ocean Villa ❤️

Luna Homestay 3B2B (Sea/Sunset View) @ City Centre
pros: very good location, walking distance (abt 15min) to Gaya street (but the weather is too hot so we still took a grab). also not far from the beach and airport The host was very responsive. The house is large and easy to check in. rooms are clean. good for a group stay. Overall worth the price! cons: It's near the airport, so sometimes the noise of airplanes is annoying. The flow of the shower head is weak...

Ocean-sunset view 2 bedroom suite @ Jesselton Quay
The host was particularly friendly, I checked in at night and had a lot of questions to ask, she would always reply patiently, including needing to leave luggage would also recommend a nearby storehouse.Awesome! I'll choose you when I come back to Kota Kinabalu again😊😊

✨Hidden Gem Luxury 3BR Seaview at Imago The Loft
Late at night, after landing, the internet setting on my phone didn't work well, so I arrived at the airport using the airport WiFi. I only sent a message and left, but the host was already waiting for us in the lobby. It was a trip with three generations, and there was a room where each person could maintain their privacy. There is also a spacious living room, so you can stay together when you want to be together. All amenities were within walking distance, and the convenient and spacious pool was nice. The open sea view from the living room was impressive, and you can see the sunset from the room. I am willing to revisit 100%.
