Nice little local village resort. Staff were super friendly. Food was good and plentiful. The villa I stayed in looked recently renovated. Good air conditioning, plenty of hot water and strong Wifi. Highly recommend for a few relaxing days.

There is very nice place and the boss is very helpful! There are only six room and quiet ! As this is my birthday trip, so excited the restaurant moved to the middle of the sea like the chairs, tables and food! Whole guests join together! Amazing experience! Asked me what favourite colour because they prepared your favourite colour cake! Really memorable!

We stayed for two nights and were warmly welcomed by the very friendly staff. The water wasn’t very clear, so we only swam once, and we only saw small fish near the platform. The food options were somewhat limited. However, the resort provided convenient pick-up and drop-off services to/from UmUm Jetty.

這個度假村真的跟我想象中相差無幾,每個房間都是獨棟的小木屋,旁邊種了木瓜樹,在房間裏看到的風景就已經很漂亮了,下午會帶我們出去浮潛,水下衹有海星和一些零散的珊瑚。我們入住的時間裏仙本那到處停水停電,度假村好像有發電機所以房間裏仍然有一個插座可以打開電燈並且使用風扇,因為第二天是晚上的飛機負責人還很貼心地讓我們延遲退房了。晚餐時間有兩個小朋友在餐廳區域表演舞蹈,像是某種穆斯林集會,他們並不與我們交流,我們衹是在旁邊吃飯,欣賞可愛的孩子們跳舞。以後有機會我們還想再來這裏住。😊

Une belle découverte proche de Semporna. Le resort est situé à côté d'un village de pêcheurs. L'avantage est de ne pas être dans la ville et les trajets en bateau sont flexibles (il faut compter 15 à 20 minutes) du Jetty. Espaces extérieurs sympas avec une plate-forme sur la mer pour se relaxer. Pas de plage, nous ne nous sommes pas baignés. L'accueil est très chaleureux à la Malaisienne. Pour moi un endroit idéal pour 1 ou 2 nuits à Semporna.
