Ideal location, surrounded by eateries, convenience stores, banks...etc. free private parking is good but very limited spaces. Large spacious room, bathroom w huge counter top is always a plus. Quiet environment. Elevator is another bonus but too bad no water filter machine and they do not replenish free bottled waters. Super friendly n helpful staff at lobby. Overall a very pleasant experience. Definitely will come back again.

Stayed here for the first time for business trip, apart from the socket too far from bed, I have no complaint, it was okay, in the middle of the city, good view.
I stayed here for 6 nights. The room was okay – aircond and hot shower worked well. Housekeeping was very friendly and helpful, I give them 5 stars.
But the Front Office service was disappointing. No greetings, not helpful, and they didn’t even check the condition of the room before giving it to me. The first room I was moved to had dirty towels and pillows, and no mirror in the bathroom. The second room was the same. When I asked for WiFi, the staff said they didn’t know the password – which was hard to believe. FO staff seemed clueless about what’s in each room.
Overall, I’m happy with the room and housekeeping, but FO service really needs improvement.

I had an overall pleasant stay. The service was commendable, the room was clean, and everything functioned smoothly throughout my visit. The hotel is conveniently located and provides good value for the price.
Breakfast is reasonably priced at RM15 per person, offering a variety of options including tea, coffee, cordial drinks, fresh fruits, local kuih, rice, noodles, and porridge.
The only drawback is that the hotel is a bit dated, with some visible signs of wear and tear. However, if you're not too concerned about modern aesthetics, it remains a comfortable and practical option.
Recommended for short stays or business trips!

Overall experience for a 1 nigth stay, I give it a 6/10. Staff are friendly, location is strategic (In the middle of the city), breakfast is okay. Its just that the hotel is old, run down. Here’s a few reasons;
1. When we enter the room, we were greeted by the strong smell of Mold. They put some freshener on the aircond but still, the mold smell is strong. Even the chair is moldy 🥲
2. The aircond; Its moldy. It automatically turns off every few hours (tried to turn off the timer but some buttons on the aircond remote doesn’t work). Set the temp to 16c but it feels like 24c)
3. The front light near the door is not working.
4. The remote TV is also not working, cant even change the channel or adjust the volume.
5. The toilet hose is broken.
6. The toilet floor is very slippery, IDK if its because of the soap or oil.

The location is strategic, with plenty of eateries nearby. However, during our stay, we experienced a blackout that lasted for over an hour, with no electricity and even no water in the toilet. Overall, it was an okay experience.

Great
GGuest UserThe boss is super nice. We booked a barrack and a cabin and upgraded them to cabins for free. The hotel is Chinese friendly. Get away from the dirty and messy town of Semporna. You don't have to worry about bedding and other hygiene issues. It is very clean and the mattress is very comfortable. I slept very well for two nights. The environment and ecology are also very good. The indoor facilities are very clean and new. The toilet and bath are all smart. You can return to China with one click. The charging port is also a Chinese charging port and does not need to be converted to the British standard. The boss will also help you bargain when you go to the seafood market. In addition, the seafood processed by the hotel is very delicious. We arrived late on the first day and the boss helped us cook delicious noodles. The boss also helped to book flights and taxis, and gave a lot of help along the way. It was a great trip!
WWill_ChenI traveled alone and stayed here for 4 nights from 8/4 to 8/8.
**Environment:**
The resort is so amazing that I wish I could keep it a secret rather than share it with you. Located in the middle of the sea, with no other structures around, you can easily enjoy the sunrise, sunset, and the starry sky every day. During the daytime, you can participate in various water sports, and if you're lucky, you might spot a sea turtle at night.
**Food:**
Breakfast, lunch, and dinner are included when you book the hotel, so there’s no need to worry about meals. The resort offers seafood and local cuisine daily. Please note: Visitors should bring their own snacks and drinks before boarding the resort, as it only provides water, coffee, and tea.
**Facilities & Service:**
All the staff here will treat you kindly, even if there might be a language barrier (English is spoken here!). If you're afraid of swimming, the staff will accompany you while you're in the sea (life jackets are provided in each room). Each room also has a balcony with a lounge chair where you can relax, grab a beer, and do nothing but enjoy the soothing sea breeze.
You may not want to stay in the middle of nowhere like I did to escape from modern civilization, but I truly recommend staying at the resort for at least 2 nights. You'll definitely feel completely recharged!
Finally, I want to say that the view is so astonishing that I can hardly describe it with my limited English. You must visit this place yourself.
YYumkaVery nice water house, all-inclusive package including three meals + afternoon tea + snorkeling + visit to Bajau village
The owner is very nice, warm and considerate, but not too intrusive
The water house is about 50 minutes away from the town by boat, and the water is very clear! Snorkeling with black people is also 1v1, so don't worry too much if you can't swim. The water here is really super clear and the water quality is super clean. Even on cloudy days, the corals and fish underwater can be seen clearly
Food: I had the best meal in Semporna here, which is very suitable for my friends and me. Everyone had two bowls of rice for every meal! There are sea fish for every meal, and there are crabs for the first meal, which are very big
Facilities: It is a new water house with complete facilities, and the air conditioner and hair dryer are also very powerful
KKitty~QFirst of all, I am very happy to meet Menalisa's housekeeper Xiao Chen Laotie and a housekeeper sister. Secondly, I feel very happy to come to Semporna. Although I did not sign up for the sea tour on the first day, the housekeeper sister recommended other niche places to me. The mountain is also very beautiful! And thank Xiao Chen brother the most. He arranged a driver for me and I also took the sea tour from him. He is very good at taking pictures📷. I am especially grateful to him💓 for taking me to eat a lot of local food! We sat at the front desk and boasted together. It felt like he was very good. He could speak Chinese, English and Malay. I am very grateful to him again hahahaha! The hotel is also very good. You can tell the housekeeper if you have any needs, and they can solve them for you on the spot! But don't make unreasonable demands. I swear I'm not a shill. I spent four days in Semporna. Xiao Chen took me to eat for three days. The most regrettable thing is that I didn't eat seafood because I felt uncomfortable in my stomach and didn't really want to eat it haha. Thank you Xiao Chen for taking photos for me. If you need to join a group, you can also ask Xiao Chen to arrange it for you. You are also welcome to travel to China hahaha. Thank you to all the hotel staff💓💓💓💓💓💓💓
GGuest UserIt was my first time to experience a water house. The slide went directly into the sea. It was very interesting.
Service: The hotel's arrangements are in place and they can help you solve any problems you have. We booked a charter boat for snorkeling for two people. The instructor is also very professional and will dive to the bottom of the sea to help you catch the fish from the bottom of the sea.
Facilities: As soon as I entered the room, I couldn't wait to experience the slide. At first, I was worried that I would sink into the sea if I slid down. There are life jackets at the front desk, so there is no need to worry.
Free dinner: The dishes are very rich, the chicken is very tender, the crabs are also very fresh, there is crab roe in it, you can’t get enough of the shrimps
AAlaaxingIt was my first time to go to Semporna. It was widely rumored online that all the hotels in the town were not satisfactory, so I could only book a newer hotel on Ctrip. Who knew that I was pleasantly surprised after checking in. The room was very large and spacious, the linens were very clean, and the facilities were very new, especially the large floor-to-ceiling windows. I could see the sea view while lying on the tatami, which I liked very much. The boss was Chinese and very nice. He helped me choose the appropriate island hopping route and introduced the precautions in the town. If I walked too far, I could ask him to pick me up by car. The breakfast was also OK. At least there were coffee, drinks, hot water, porridge, poached eggs, fried rice, fried noodles, fried vegetables, bread, and fruit. I had no problem eating enough. It was recommended to add some pickles to the porridge and jam on the bread. In addition, a horizontal bar was added in the wardrobe to facilitate hanging clothes. Overall, the hotel stay experience was quite good.

MmredwardCan smell the water outside and hear noise outside. Great if that’s what you’re into!! The air con is not powerful enough to cool the room and very loud when in operation. Lobby staff sleeping on the desk in afternoon and nighttime. Pushy for check out, knocking at exactly 11:50am. Check out was slow, around 10mins. wait to return $100 cash deposit which wasn’t required at other hotels in the area.
GGuest UserThe water house is really great! The resort has only 6 rooms, which is quiet and private. It takes about 20 minutes by speedboat from Haifeng Pier! The most attractive thing is that every room can go directly into the sea, and free snorkeling equipment is also provided. It is clean and tidy! Many people say that the air conditioning in the water house is terrible, but we think it's okay, probably because it's not hot and humid now. The hotel staff can take you snorkeling in the designated area, and there is also a glass boat for taking photos! Snorkeling can see small fish and starfish, and if you are lucky you can also see turtles
