Home 2 bedroom near Kota Kinabalu City

RajanthiranRating, 5 stars65 months ago

As of December 2019, you can't cook in this house. And there is no fridge too. However, the house is just nice, location is good. The host is probably the best I've had on AirBnB so far. He really responds quickly. So you probably won't have too many worries during your stay here.

A serene sunset over the water is captured with the sun positioned low on the horizon. Silhouettes of palm trees frame the scene, while gentle ripples can be seen on the surface of the water, reflecting warm hues of orange and yellow.

The image captures a serene seascape during sunset, with a gradient of purple and orange hues in the sky. The vibrant colors reflect off the gentle waves, creating a tranquil atmosphere, while a distant island is faintly visible on the horizon.

Room 2 Tanjung Aru Town House 2F Room 2 Tanjung aru cozy shophouse

ShulingRating, 5 stars3 months ago

Very lively B&B, clean, tidy and odorless, convenient transportation, the ground floor is the owner's grocery store, very convenient for buying daily necessities and exchanging cash. There are also many Chinese restaurants nearby, which are delicious and inexpensive, with similar tastes to China, but they are closed during the Spring Festival. The boss and his family are very friendly and responsive. They personally picked me up and dropped me off at the airport, deposited my luggage, etc. They were very responsive to my requests. Surprisingly, the boss is a Hakka Chinese, native of Meizhou. There is no barrier to communicating in Hakka. It is a different experience to meet people from my hometown in a foreign country. Close to the airport, the plane takeoff noise is very loud, but there is basically no noise during the night sleep, and I also sleep soundly, so it doesn't affect much.

A functional entryway features two chairs—a blue upholstered chair and a wooden chair with a fabric seat. A small table holds several items, and the space is lit by recessed ceiling lights. An open door leads to a bathroom at the back.

Damai homestay

JohnRating, 5 stars5 months ago

I had a fantastic time I extended my stay I was so happy. if your working remotely this is great too decks in the room. peaceful and very good atmosphere. bed was comfortable and the deck and chair was great for working long hours on computer. I usually dred this because I have a bad back I saw the chair and got up early just to work. the shower was hot and there were fans for cooling plus the ac so you were never hot. which is important when your working all hours everything was close to walk to for food and grab add no issues with address. I looking forward to going back I felt very at home there. overall I was extremely happy and you will be too.

Twin Sharing - 2 Pax (Private Bathroom)

JaejunRating, 5 stars91 months ago

The location is great. It's a strategic location in Kota Kinabalu, so it's a good place to stay. There is a convenience store right next to the property and many restaurants. If you're not steps away, you'll find two banks that can be withdrawn. It's night, so you don't have to worry about what to do. Twenty steps away, Kota Kinabalu's two biggest clubs, bed and 999, await you. It's so nice to have the name of the place right away in Grab. The surrounding tourist attractions, including Tanjung Aru Beach, are also really close, so it's not worth the five stars! ^ ^

A shared twin room features two beds with crisp white linens positioned against light blue walls. A dark wooden wardrobe stands nearby, while a chair and a small table are placed along the wall. Natural light enters through a window with gray curtains.

Room 1 Tanjung Aru Town House 2nd Floor Room 1, Tanjung arzy shophouse

戈苇Rating, 5 stars1 week ago

This is the owner of the convenience store's own home. The room is very clean, tidy and cozy. The host is very friendly, warm, polite and replies promptly. The surroundings of the room are very convenient. There are places to eat. Taxis are very fast. It is also very convenient to go to the beach to watch the sunset. We chose this place because we wanted to watch the sunset (the sunset is really beautiful). The overall feeling is very good ~
