The first overseas hotel evaluation, dedicated to Dolphin Island Resortš¬
I promised my children to take them abroad once before they go to elementary school, and I canāt break my promise. I chose Kota Kinabalu as the destination, and I can watch the sea, dig sand, snorkel and watch fish, which my children love. When choosing a hotel, I chose a phobia outbreak. I hesitated for a long time. I trusted my intuition and chose this hotel. The fact is that it is really delicious! highly recommended!
After the reservation, the staff contacted me and added WeChat, and the various precautions were very clear. After check-in, every staff member is very nice, it can be said that they are responsive to every request. Eat, live and play in a few days, everything is quite satisfactory. There is a local lady named Snowman among the staff who can speak Chinese! There is also a handsome guy who can't speak Chinese, that's the one in picture 2. He is very careful with the children, and he keeps teaching our babies to swim and snorkel, which is touching... There are performances at night, which are very lively. When leaving, the child said that he would like to come here next time.
Nice place. I had a very pleasant stay. Staff are very helpful. The room was big enough and good for stay. The breakfast provided so simple but delicious. The accommodation very near to the usukan beach as a few steps only. Beautiful beach especially during high tide and it will be a very nice family gathering at Usukan Cove Lodge. Overall we had a very nice and good stay at there. Will come again soon.
On our way to Cabana Retreat, we saw a couple of cows at the roadside. Since I wanted to take some photos, my friend made a U-turn so that I could capture a few. One cow was a shade of white & it looked quite tame & docile. The road leading to our retreat was very quiet. We hardly saw any cars & passed a jetty signboard. We arrived at 3:00 pm & managed to park our rented car near the Resortās entrance. I went straight to the Front desk to check-in & to get our keys to our quad-tent. Thankfully, our quad-tent was located near to the common bathroom. We had chosen a quad-tent because the 4 of us wanted to have a glamping experience together. Unfortunately, one friend had to leave. Thus, there was 1 empty mattress on a wooden pallet which we had used to put all our food. Although the quad-tent was compact, it came equipped with an air-cooler, a standing fan, a small wooden table & chair, a wicker basket that was used as a wastepaper basket, a long mirror & a small area to hang our clothes. There was also a steel shoe rack. Throw pillows were given on each bed. The sheets & blankets were of hotel quality while the mattress was comfortable enough though I could still feel the wooden pallets underneath it all. The material covering our tents was of high quality too & we had double tent zippers for safety & protection. Our 2-day package came with free activities on the beach. Unfortunately, the staff was not available to teach us to handle the paddleboat. Hence, we had to forgo the non-motorised activities. My 2 friends decided to rest in the tent but I decided to walk on the beach. Strangely enough, I saw many cows on the beach! They were going for the waves. As it was starting to drizzle, I left the beach & headed back to the tent. Our package also included a Firefly experience on our 1st night. However, we had to drive to the jetty ourselves. When we arrived, we mentioned the name of our Hotel & were given admittance into the boat. The host, a middle-aged man told us to be quiet while he summoned the fireflies to our direction. It was such an awesome magical experience when the fireflies started appearing before your very eyes. Even if itās not in the package, please make sure that you go for this activity. The next morning, we had breakfast at the Coffee House as it was included in the package. We were given a selection to choose from, either American or local meals. They were freshly made & tasty. The scenery was of the beach. There were also a few swings for guests to enjoy on underneath a roof. Outdoor tables, chairs & benches were provided on the beach where guests could enjoy their breakfast with the sand underneath their feet. There were many cats & dogs around the vicinity. Most probably they were strays. We saw a rooster trying to chase away a mangy dog. Throughout our stay, we would buy some food & feed the cats, dogs & rooster. In short, all meals ā breakfast, lunch & dinner were at the Coffee House. We didnāt feel a need to

MoTuWeThFrSaSu Reviews 1 review (1 review) Asia User Profile Asia November 2019 Amazing, highly recommended place! We spent the last 3 days of our trip around Malaysia in Nathasiaās place and it was the best possible choice! We managed to properly relax. Houses are located on the beautiful, clean beach. The beach is not easily accessible, thatās why we were transported there by the boat. It is a huge advantage as the beach is basically private. Accommodation is clean and tidy. The best parts are a terrace with external bed from which you can watch the sunset, as well as the external bathroom with beautiful flowers and the shower rain head for refreshing showers during the day. There is a lot of equipment available for guests including canoe, bamboo float and the snorkelling masks. Hosts are extremely nice, helpful and carrying. The made us feel almost like a royal family :) They helped us organize our time during the stay. They even took us for a great trip to the nearby town for an amazing dinner, which was a great experience. All the staff on the site are very nice and helpful. In the end, I have to mention foodā¦ It's DELICIOUS! The best food we had during our trip. The cook treated us every day with a variety of traditional cuisine ā we all agreed that he served us the best prawns we EVER had. Summarizing, I would truly, highly recommend visiting this place. Nathasia and Rez, thank you a lot for everything! Hopefully, we will be able to come bac
