The latest addition to Kota Kinabalu’s luxurious offshore resort offerings; the Gaya Island Resort is set on the picturesque shores of Pulau Gaya, the largest island in marine conservation area of Tunku Abdul Rahman Marine National Park.
120 hillside and beachfront villas overlook the sands and out over the South China Sea, with distant views of the looming Mount Kinabalu. The resort has been built with one eye kept on retaining the island’s rugged natural beauty, meaning the villas are set amongst thick vegetation and rainforest. This is no more evident than at the unique spa, nestled into a surrounding mangrove setting, and offering treatments that combine the therapeutic properties of natural aromatic remedies.
Villas are furnished in a contemporary style; with low lying beds, rich woods, marble bathrooms, and ample natural light provided by the vast picture windows that in turn ensure you make the most of the stunning vista.
Nature lovers will appreciate the bird watching activities and nature trails, whilst romantics might favour the extensive spa treatments. For the gastronome there is a diverse range of dining experiences - including the wine cellar and a roof top seafood dining experience - and the thrill seeker will be more than satisfied by the water sports, cruises and excursions on offer.
