Find hotels near Gaya Island in Kota Kinabalu, Malaysia

We have a right decision to stay in Gayana for Christmas. There were free flow of drinks including alcohol, snacks which was superb and entertainment by a group of carols and a band. The staff were friendly and try by all means to make your stay a memorable one. The rooms are large and clean and have good views. The food is the restaurant is really good and not very expensive. The only downside is the poor frequency of transport from the mainland (KK city) to the resort on Gaya Island. There are only 3 ferry per day which may not work with your flight time. I have also booked a diving lesson which was on the other side of the island and had to pay RM250 for a drop & pick up which was only 15 mins each way.

Had a 3 nights stay, at the begining I thought it was a bit expensive. However, was worth the price for the quality of service and the amazing place it is in Gaya Island. Nice and spacious rooms, surrounded by incredible nature. The staff was very friendly, even organized a cake for a birthday celebration even i did not arrange it in advance. The restaurants are also excellent, you have a seafood one with fresh selections, a teppanyaki bar with a beautiful view. Swimming pool, beach and outdoor activities such as kayaking, snorkeling diving, paddle board, all well arrange. Recommend this place for a romantic or relaxed few days gettaway from busy city life style.
