"We were a group of nature lovers who were using this as a three night stay to get used to the temperature and time change upon arrival in Borneo. Loved the grounds and snorkeling right from the beach. Fantastic nature center staffed by several biologists. The food options were a bit pricey but we were expecting that. The grounds were very birdy and we found two Borean Pit Vipers. The mangrove tour was fantastic. Room is very good quality for the price."

"I truly enjoyed my stay at this charming hotel. The atmosphere was spacious and quaint, offering a peaceful retreat while still being incredibly convenient. Its location made it easy to access all parts of Kota Kinabalu, whether for sightseeing, dining, or shopping. The staff were warm and welcoming, and the overall experience was smooth and relaxing. Highly recommended for anyone looking for comfort and accessibility in one place!"

Top Karambunai Hotel Reviews

La.mer Butik

10/10 Excellent

"Terrific View Super clean and covetable . Short Grab ride to town ."

Mercure Kota Kinabalu City Centre

10/10 Excellent

"The location is great—very close to Jesselton Harbor. We booked the OWD course, so it was super convenient for us—only a 3‑minute walk. There’s also a big shopping mall nearby, plus it’s easy to find the durian street, fruit market, and seafood market. The hotel price is quite cheap, and it’s clean enough. It could be a bit better, but overall, it’s all good."

Shangri-La Tanjung Aru, Kota Kinabalu

10/10 Excellent

"The Shangti-La is just a step up from other hotels. Yes, it's big and busy but the staff go out of their way to really spoil you. I'm vegan and they bent over backwards to ensure I had a great breakfast, sent soy milk to my room tweaked dishes so I ate well. And the location - oh my. We stayed in a garden room and could walk straight out looking at the sea. Room had a shower and a bath, was well stocked. Water in the fridge every day. Their Spa was great too. I can't think of anything bad about the place. We just didn't want to leave. "
