Lovely homestay in the middle of the mangroves. You can spot waterbirds, monitor lizards and monkeys from the window of your room! Boats and kayaks are available to borrow for free. Sometimes, it smelled the way mangroves smell, but only on the walkways, never in the room. We had a room with king size bed, which was great, except neither mobile internet nor wifi reached there (but they do reach the main area and probably most of the other rooms). Attached to a seafood restaurant, and there is a supermarket and a laundry service nearby. The reception desk seems to be staffed 24 hours a day, but not all of the night staff speak English.

What a truly amazing place. It was food for the soul. Total bliss from the staff to the view to the room. Imagine a wooden cabin on the edge of the ocean, surrounded with trees, sitting in a rocking chair on the veranda of your room watching the fish jumping playfully in and out of the water, They even provide a fishing rod if you wish. As the tide ebbs out, the herons come gracefully walking along standing patiently for their catch . A kettle with fresh water and coffee is replenished. The bed is so comfortable and the sheets and duvet fresh white linen. Although it is remote, there are shops, supermarket , laundry and eating places within minutes walk . If you want to treat yourself to a relaxing stay, you can't do better than here. I booked for 2 nights and stayed 10 ✨
I didn't like leaving 💕.

We booked for one night and ended up staying five nights! The staff is very friendly everyday giving us coffee, water and soap. We had the room with the balcony and we could fish right from there! We also took the boat out on the harbour. We spotted monkeys and some big lizard. They also have a little gym that we could use. Very close to shabandar beach and karambunai beach.

Beautiful views of the lake from my apartment.
Plastic! Plastic! Plastic! Completely ruining the entrance to the homestay!!! Unfortunately this seems to be a problem everywhere in Sabah. (And Sarawak)

Beautiful view from the room out onto the water, beds were comfortable, staff were friendly
Toilet didn't flush properly, Also the directions followed to get from booking.com/google maps sent you to a nearby seafood restaurant. Though this may be googles fault.

The location was fabulous, particularly for birdwatching! Beautiful scenery from the Seaview room, felt very private. The food at the on site restaurant was delicious and massive portions! Free on site activites such as fishing and canoeing was a nice bonus!
The rooms are a little rustic, and we did have a few wild visitors in the night. Not for the squeamish but worth it for the views and wildlife.

The staffs are so friendly. The green of mangroves and the sea view really felt like a big warm hug from the nature. Even the front yard of the facilities filled with beautiful deco lights during night time.
