Beautiful resort on Tanjung Aru. Really nice resort style. Rooms may be a bit dated but comfortable. We stayed in the sea facing suite and it was impeccable. Front desk is responsive and resolves issues quickly and efficiently. Really thumbs up - one of the best service I have ever gotten. Ground facilities are plentiful and well updated and maintained. The charm of the place is in its people - staff are all well motivated and helpful. Really pleasant stay overall. Not to miss is the sunset view - no wonder people flock here just for it.

One of the best stay ever. What i can say the hotel provide world class hospitality during my stay. For sure gonna come back again in the future. The hotel is family friendly. The pool area is good. Then the kids room and recreational area is the best for my kids.

Had an amazing holiday at the Shangri-la Tanjung Aru at Kota Kinabalu. The staff were friendly, attentive, polite and each one was out to please the guest. My son has certain food allergies. The staff took special care to ensure that food prepared for him did not contain the allergens. We used the swimming pool, tennis courts, played golf, exercised at the gymnasium, went on a jet ski and did para sailing. The view from the room was heavenly. A perfect place to spend a holiday with the family.

We had an amazing time at Shangri-La. From the moment we were at the lobby, we were greeted with warmth by the friendly and helpful staff. They had prepared (delicious) chocolates and a rose for our 2nd wedding anniversary - it was a nice touch! We also loved that room service can be done via our mobile phone. Very convenient and service was quick.
The view from our room’s balcony and the sunset near the beach were superb.
There are daily activities we can do like yoga etc. The swimming pool was fun (with slides and other activities) and we had the time to go to the gym before having our breakfast buffet.
Christmas decorations were magical! It was worth the stay. Would definitely return!
