Find hotels in Tanjung Aru

Our family of 4 youngsters enjoyed our stay at the Tanjung Aru esp with the use of the pools, slides and beach. There was quite a number of people during the day but it was quiet and restful at night. There is a shuttle going to the Rasa Ria Orangutan sanctuary - unfortunately it was full 2 days in advance. How many are allowed each day? 10pax per shuttle is too little for the number of guests at the hotel. I was told there was a 30 myr fee for the shuttle which i think is too expensive, as this is the cost of 1 taxi for our whole family. Furthermore, it is a shuttle to the Shangrila Rasa Ria hotel - and guests from the Tanjung Aru should be able to use it for free at least once - considering the amount we spent for the hotel. There are also no shuttles to the city center for shopping. Other than that our stay was good.

Stayed with my mum and dad (with two young children). The hotel is within easy reach to the local amenities at Tanjung Aru and is within walking distance. At the hotel, the lovely lady reception sorted our registration and she let us checked in slightly earlier than scheduled. We got a three bedroom family room and it was spacious and most importantly, clean! Attempted to get the housekeeping staff to guide us to use the hob but none turned up - may be they forgotten us. I have to emphasise that the security staff were kind and polite. Helpful with information and he also kindly reminded me to be extra careful before I'm out to collect money from the ATM machine at late night. We stayed only for a night therefore we didn't manage to try the roof top pool as we were run out of time. I would recommend stays for families or groups but they do have other types of rooms as well. The access to hotel is secured and the card is accessible to the back door car park, lift and most importantly, your own room. If you have visitor(s), you do not need to worry about car park. Just inform the reception and they will guide you.

The hotel is located very close to terminal 2 airport where airasia plane land. Just 5-10 minutes walk will do. Peaceful hotel with a quiet enviroment. Can visit first beach tanjung aru 5 minutes walk from hotel. Comfortable and clean room. Hot water supply should be improved because water wasn't hot enough during my stay. Wifi only available at lobby. Wifi access in rooms should be provided.

When we first arrived, we were so excited to see such a modern beautiful condominium. It is so spacious. Beautifully furnished 3 bedrooms,2 toilets, separate wet & dry kitchen, and separate laundry. The kitchen is well equipped with kitchen utensils, microwave, toaster and large fridge.The beds were comfortable. Shower was good. There is swimming in the compound. Ample parking spaces. There 2 lifts, the small one only fits 2 persons & 3 bags!! The main entrance doors are locked at night. It is located near the Tanjung Aru beach & KKIA. There is a supermarket nearby. You need a car to travel around, but the condominium is worth a stay. It can fit 6-7 adults. Definitely will come back!

Don't hesitate to book your nights here. If you are a picky budget traveller like me, Megah D'Aru is your best choice to stay at Tanjung Aru. Prompt & friendly customer service. Charming & clean environment. Fast & free airport transfer. You can even find almost anything nearby; church, best beach, food, groceries, toiletries, laundry, lotteries....lol. They even got me an excellecent car rental. Impressive!!

Excellent coffee, very modern, staff friendly. Wish l could off got the large TV near cafe to work. But couldn't, probably my fault. I like this place a lot l am a cyclist and their was a great cycle route into town. This was an excellent place to relax. The young receptionist was very friendly and would tell me where to go. Near the dock inn where long house and large concrete piers too observe the house from which was interesting. Also the tanjung Aru beach where a lot of Chinese gathered at sunset and it was near The Sutera harbour resort again l found interesting.

Great little budget hotel near the airport. Staff are friendly, accommodating and helpful. Breakfast is really good. Great large portions which are great for the money conscious traveller. Beds are comfortable. And the hygiene/ cleanliness of the whole place was absolutely outstanding. The bathroom and shower, though small were so modern and clean I was shocked. (Have been travelling for 2 months and seen the full gamete in terms of hygiene! The Hotel is perfect for airport stopovers as is 2 - 5 mins from the airport and only 10- 15 mins walk from the beautiful Tanjung Aru beach. Shuttles and rides can be arranged at extremely affordable prices and the Hotel offers a wide variety of tours, from city, to wilderness to cultural. On my trip I was desperate for some beach after having been on weeks of city/ jungle travel and so left to find something closer to 1st Beach, Tanjung Aru. I wish I hadn't. For the ten minute walk down to the shore, you suffer greatly in accommodation quality and I wish I had have stayed at the crown. Staff are gorgeous and lovely.

Cleanliness is very important. The place still new so perhaps no problem with the clealiness. Thank you to agoda for offering a very cheap rates for me. I've to cancel from other Online agent due to Price issue. I paid less what i expected. I will definately use Agoda for future booking. Friendly staff and very efficient. I called many times but the person ( IAN ) are very patient towards answering my questions. Keep it up.....

Pros: Security guards everywhere, restaurants nearby, fast wifi, TV channel is clear compare to some that offered the same price, ample parking spaces and are still free, close to the city Cons: Aeropods still not fully construted. Gateway to the parking place is sometimes close, have to move around and pass the gravel before we can get into the building. The only rundown is, if you want to get to the city, or Tg Aru, the u-turn is very far off. We have to wait for the fly over to be finished where the u-turn is much closer. Additional info, I don't like the woman at the counter in Hameed Maju restaurant, don't show ur angry face to your customer, very irritating(not related to Haruka's obviously) But it is still a great place to stay.

Being a spa they did some spa things like have mattresses on the floor and have chiming music with dimmed lights but I kind of liked that it was different and it was open late as I had a late flight in. The toilet was ok but a bit disappointing and there wasn't a bus stop close enough for me and the road access was only from one direction so it was in a cul de sac. The TV room was good and there was water and tea or something to drink. I did have trouble finding an electric socket which worked which was a pain as I'd just been travelling all day.
