The guy, A Shun, is very nice. The service is warm and thoughtful. This is the best memory this island gave me. It is a private island, far from KK, a two-hour drive. The owner is Chinese. The room is average, which is a matter of opinion. It is not proportional to the room price. There are few marine activities, suitable for leisure travel. The beach is private, there are few people, the sea water is average, the snorkeling site is even more average, and the equipment is not complete. Please take a detour if you care

A very perfect experience, the island owner is very nice. Everything is arranged for everyone. Friends who haven't come can come and experience it. The show in the evening is very good. I don’t have to look at my phone anymore to kill time.

When you arrive in Sabah, you must go to a resort on an outlying island to stay. This is the real island trip! Dolphin Island includes three meals and afternoon tea, and it also includes city pick-up and drop-off, which is very convenient. There were no crowds and the scenery was really beautiful! I really couldn’t bear to leave, so much stamina! If time permits, it would be more comfortable to stay for two days.
good service!

It’s so clean. My stay is too short. I want to lie quietly for a day. Thank you to the owner of the island for your warm hospitality. When a fellow villager meets a fellow villager, my eyes are filled with tears.

The room is new, very clean, and the bathroom is huge, beyond my imagination.
The hotel also has internet, and the staff will help deliver boxes to the room. The room can basically see the sea. The mood is wonderful!
Dolphin Island is one of my favorite islands. You can snorkel, paddleboard, take exams, and dance together at night!
If you have a close friend, you can drink wine and talk about life! 10 minutes from the shore, the crew is very friendly and lovely
Dinner was very good, I can't forget the crab! Don’t miss taking photos and checking in

It was wonderful to spend my graduation trip here. I hope we can come back here with the same people in the future and see you at the same place.

I learned diving at Dolphin Island. I went to the beach right out of the room and went directly to the sea every day. The tuition fee includes accommodation and equipment fees, which is really a great deal. There are no cluttered crowds, just a group of friends like us go out to sea to study together every day.
