Lovely few days r&r in April after a fantastic Sabah roadtrip
A flight takes off from the Kota Kinabalu airport as seen from Tanjung Aru beach
We didn’t get the orange sunset we were hoping for due to the cloud but we did see some beautiful pinks and blues in the sky once the sun had set at the Shangri-la Sunset bar #BSVBlue

Fantastic sea facing, penthouse unit very close to the airport. I'm fact the infinity pool faces the runway. Superb noise insulation hence no noise of the flights taking off or landing. Convenient location for tours and couple of nice eateries nearby. Very courteous staff too👍

This is a very fine modern hotel located in the heart of Kota Kinabulu. We particularly appreciated the fact that it was a short walk to the restaurant row on the waterfront which offered outdoor seating and a variety of cuisines.
