"Really great stay at this budget accommodation near the Tun Sakaran Marine Park with nice bed and super clean, perfect for couples on a holiday looking for a nice getaway from it all. Loved the local feel; we even danced and played with the local Bajau Laut kids."

Andrea H. (Germany) ·

"Host family was incredibly hospitable and they even helped us while snorkeling and retrieved something we forgot at the pier. Truly kind people. We also went to visit Mabul island and took selfie pictures at the luxury Mabul Water Bungalows and snorkeling at Kapalai for a day trip."

Wen Q. (China) ·

"Spectacular setting and crystal water and peaceful sea vibes. The staff is always smiling and helpful even with limited English. We went for an island hopping trip (snorkeling) around Pulau Maiga, Timba-Timba island, Mantabuan and Sibuan which was a unique experience really worth having."
