Beds were unique…3 levels, but the most comfortable of all the hotels we visited. Meals were just ok at best but final outdoor barbecue was excellent. Snorkeling trip was great. I guess the best way to describe the facility would be primitive or rustic.

This was basically a very fine hotel in a very busy city. There were very nice restaurants nearby and shopping but the traffic was unbelievable. The breakfasts were very good. The hotel was great but the city was huge.

Tour was very informative . My only complaint was that we were promised a bit of shopping time in Chinatown and there was none. The bit of food tasting was blah and could have been eliminated in my opinion. But the tour itself was really good.

This was interesting and we saw new and different parts of the countryside. But the transport was terrible! The shocks on the van were gone and the ride was very uncomfortable. All our backs were truly bounced around and shaken.

Hotel Reviews
Borneo Sepilok Rainforest Resort
Sandakan

Nice, rustic hotel. We enjoyed our stay!

Sukau Greenview Lodge
Kinabatangan River

Wonderful hotel and great guide (Kiki) in Kinabatangan River. Meals were so-so - but they were VERY accommodating my dietary restrictions (e.g. made special vegan meals for me). Highly recommend!

Borneo Divers Mabul Resort

Wonderful stay. Lovely meals. Wished they kept A/C on all the time. Dive operations were ok. Some guides were fantastic. Even though there was a small smoking area on the deck, a lot of the guides/ staff smoked wherever and it was annoying. I appreciated the guides were focused on eco-appropriate ways to treat the reef and underwater life. I was irritated that I was only diving 3 days and we went back to one of the same sites. I did share my feedback and the guide tried to show me new stuff. I wasn't the only one who was annoyed.

The Buwan Dive Resort
Semporna

Just stayed one night but it was a nice rustic resort. Equipment was in great shape and they had SUPs you could borrow for free! I liked that meals were outside!

The only bit of feedback is that it took a few days after we paid/confirmed for the final bookings to get made which made me a little nervous. Read more

We have now used KimKim for multiple trips and Malaysia was no different — absolutely seamless from start to finish. Every detail was taken care of before we even had to think about it. Accommodation, transfers, tours — all perfectly arranged, all exactly as promised.
What KimKim does better than anyone is remove the stress from travel entirely. There is no scrambling, no uncertainty, no moment where you wonder if something will go wrong. Everything just works. You arrive, you enjoy, you trust the process — because they have never once given us a reason not to.
Our Malaysia trip was everything we hoped for, and a big part of that is because the foundation was so well laid. When your logistics are this reliable, you are free to be fully present and actually experience the place you are in.
We will not use anyone else. KimKim has our complete loyalty — and our highest recommendation to anyone looking for a travel partner they can truly count on.

Hotel Review
Lankayan Island Dive Resort

Amazing amazing amazing! The most surprising (pleasant surprise) for me was how delicious the food was. I assumed since the island is so remote the food would be basic but not at all! Every meal was delicious and tasty and full of flavour. 10/10 to the chef. The diving and snorkelling was unreal. I would definitely go back to this place!

Shona did a great job setting us up with some fantastic private guides through all of our stops in Malaysia. We believe excellent private guides are the single most important factor in having a memorable trip.. Shona also
made sure that our hotel bookings were set up in time, that our tours covered the places that we most wanted to see, and that the trip went off almost completely seamlessly. Even when there was one small pick hiccup, she made sure that the issue was addressed and the local tour guide was notified of the issue. So, this is our second trip planned with Shona, and we would highly recommend her to anyone else who is planning a trip to Japan or any of the surrounding Asian countries, like Malaysia. Thank you, Shona!
