It was special and different place. Our room was been over the sea, room was clean and nice. Near restaurant ( our breakfast place) staff was most friendly what i remember in my holliday trips. I recommend that place all couples who needs harmony and silence.

The resort itself is very nice, the grounds kept very well. However, the water was very dirty around the resort, with rubbish (eg plastic bags, used hangbag, chips packets etc) everywhere around the lagoon and underneath the bungalows. We were told it's monsoon season hence the rubbish but it did not look very appearing, given the amount of staffs and price you pay for the room, you could think someone would try to clean it, for this reason we did not swim in the water even though we specially booked a room where we can get directly access to the sea.

The staffs were friendly, however they do not seem very experienced. I cut my foot but no one offered to help, even though they saw I was bleeding. Recommend checking out the MERC, we also went for the jungle trekking which was good, the guide was very friendly and helpful.

The food at the resort was average. The seafood restaurant was nice but food at the resort was very over priced. The prices for mini bar drinks in the room costed more than the Hyatt Regency in KK.

I dont think we will return to this resort, given the price we paid for this place, we have definitely stayed at nicer resort with more personal touch and professional service.

Its a bit of a hassle to get there..from airport to Jesselton Point. Make sure you re confirm your airport pick up. After that, the price you pay kicks in..lovely service from Jesselton to Gayana. Picture perfect, no fake marbles, not bus load of tourists, no screaming kids..just friendly people greeting you. No forms to fill in, you get your room keys in no time (we paid in advance back home). Immediately, the blue emerald clear water invites you to dive in! Which we did...from our own balcony. Pity we can't kayak far to the other islands. Just enjoy being here. Staffs are wonderfully helpful and friendly. Rooms are great, view are magical. A must go is the MERC..marine eco research centre..where you get to see giant clams. Envy the marine biologist there, these are the people who should get world recognition..they are saving the earth..they got our votes many times over.. We'll be back.

Had another great stay at this little slice of heaven. Quickly how time flies since last visit but was pleasantly surprised by the improvements of the facilities. The waters and surroundings were just as spectacular as I last left them. Quality of food , as usual, was excellent though not cheap. A pleasant patch of clear weather made the trip all the more memorable.
