Introduction Sunset Sightseeing in Kota Kinabalu
IntroductionSome information may have been translated by Google Translate
The sunset in Kota Kinabalu attracts numerous tourists and photography enthusiasts. As the sun sets, the horizon gradually turns a brilliant golden red, and the coastline of Kota Kinabalu becomes a breathtaking painting. At this time, standing on the beach or on the nearby observation deck, you can witness this natural wonder with your own eyes. As the sun slowly sinks into the horizon, the color of the sky is constantly changing, from golden yellow to orange-red, to deep purple, and finally to a tranquil deep blue. Every moment is breathtakingly beautiful.

Stunning Harbour View!
A short getaway staycation at The Magellan Sutera was kinda amazing! The stunning harbour view is just incredible! The swimming pool area one of the best in Malaysia, its huge and can accommodate all the hotel guests. We just spend whole day here enjoying the view and the swimming pool! The rooms is abit old but the beds were very comfortable, if they can renovate abit will be perfect! Don’t miss the sunset harbour view, it’s just unforgettable! Overall very relaxing stay with 5 star harbour view! #staycation

Beautiful Mamutik@Sabah, Malaysia
Location - Tunku Abdul Rahman National Park, Kota Kinabalu, Sabah, Malaysia. Attractions - Mamutik Island is one of the smallest and quietest islands of Tunku Abdul Rahman Marine Park approximately 8km off the Kota Kinabalu coast of Sabah. This island stretched out about 200m of white sandy beach in length, which allows every visitor a fair share of space to swim freely without the worries of colliding with each other. A good place to relax by the beach without much disturbance for the entire day😉. Reminder: do watch out for jellyfish in the calm sea, nobody wants to get hurt😆. #createwithtrip #travelwithgeo #travelinspiration #travelphotography #beachlife #staycation #sabahtrip #malaysiatravel #island

What a Relaxing Stay…..
The Magellan Resort is a really place to spend your holiday. The resort have plenty facilities that can occupy your day, they have Golf, ballroom, gymnasium, swimming pools, bowls, golf, indoor tennis court and many more. The swimming pools are awesome, just beside the sea so the view is superb! You can also just order a coconut drink and sit down relaxing the whole afternoon near to harbour front. Don’t miss the beautiful sunset by the harbour as well…it’s just stunning! This place is suitable for functions, family outing or honeymoon.. highly recommended.. #passionpassport #mytripvlog #tripblazers #staycation #本地遊 #summervacation #sabahtrip #kinabalu4

WONDERFUL VIEW !
⛳️ Jesselton Quay, Kota Kinabalu Booked for Seaview and look at the sunset!!! Stunning don’t you think? Thumb-up for the view. For first timer, the check-in procedure quite complicated and confusing. After done with the payment, the person in charge will give you an instruction on how to get the key. Make sure to double check which tower you’ve booked. Tower A or B? So, extra alert! This two tower will bring you to different place, once you go to the wrong tower, you won’t get your room key. How to get the key? First thing first, make sure you’re at the correct Tower according to your booking. Then, the next step is, you’ve to go to the top of the building (can’t remember which level), and there was a gym, go straight and you will see a lot of box (like the mailbox), inside that box there’s you room key. How to open the box? Don’t worry, the person in charge will provide you with the password once done with the booking. READ AND FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS VERY CAREFULLY! Once you’ve success with the key, then you’re free to go. Go where? To your room laaa😅. What I can say is, the room quite nice and similar like STUDIO ROOM concept. Got 2 bedroom. First bedroom can fit 3 person (1 queen bed & 1 single bed). Second bedroom can fit 2 person (1 queen bed). And, there also sofa bed outside the living room. But, only have one toilet, so you’ve to wait for your turn okay😂. (Fyi, different room have different interior design, so pick the one that you like.) Facilities: 1. Water heater 2. Refrigerator 3. Microwave 4. Netflix 5. Kitchenette 6. Towel 7. Bath and shower gel 8. Iron & Board Been stay here twice with different experience, different tower and view. Overall, it was amazing. #Jesselton #JeselltonQuay #kotakinabalu #Jesseltonquay

Mari-mari (EN:come come) cultural village💃🏻
#malaysia Sabah, Malaysia is a land with over thirty different ethnic races and there are diverse groups live all across across the state. Some of the popular tribes here include Kadazandusun, Bajau, Rungus, Murat and various other indigenous groups. Visiting to the Mari-Mari Cultural Village, this is an attraction where you can learn more about the tribes such as blowpipe-making demonstration, fire-starting demonstration using bamboo, tattoo-making demonstration, and get an in-depth look at the mystical symbolisms behind them. Visitors will also get chance to sample Sabahan traditional delicacies from each ethnic group. Highly recommend everyone to go for the package includes with the transportation (round-trip) as the village is located at a remote forest where it is extremely hard to get a taxi or grab. We waited for 1 hour to get a grab to pick us up 🥲🥲. Price: RM 100 + - Opening hour: 10 am session / 2 pm session Rating: 🌟🌟🌟🌟

Guan’s Kopitiam
#kotakinabalutrip No pork served. Been here three times and F&B quality, service is consistent. Had Garlic Toast and Curry Chicken with Toast + White Coffee (Hot & Cold). Lunchtime would be very crowded to the point that you may have to queue outside entrance door (waiting for available table). Place has AC but can be a little warm during after 2pm-4pm especially when shop is full with crowd, because shop is facing sunset direction. Has ground level & first floor level dining area. Variety of food & beverages offer (see photos). They even offer Dinner Menu which only be available after 6pm. A nice city kopitiam spot for a quick bite but parking is very limited from 8am-4pm daily
ICE-CREAMMMMM!!! 🍦
⛳️ Suria Sabah Mall, Kota Kinabalu Craving for ice cream? Here you go! Ilaollao one of the best choice, especially for those you love yogurt! Limited outlet in Sabah, and only can found in Suria Sabah Mall. Bring your kids try it out. No worries, there’s a lot choices of topping, just choose anything that you like. Recommended to come on Wednesday as they always offered a good deal on Wednesday. You can refer my last photo how the “Wednesday’s deal”. Go and try it out!4
