We loved our stay here at Santiri Island Resort. We celebrated our 10th year wedding anniversary and it lived up to our expectation. The resort was beautiful, it was small and intimate and not many rooms, which we enjoy because it limits the crowd on the island. It really felt like we had the island to ourselves. The picture doesn't do its justice. You need to go there to see it for yourself. The resort is unique as it has a sandbank when it's low tide, good for pictures taking or taking a stroll. The food was delicious and you could also get them to cook your seafood that you buy from the sea gypsies. They will try their best to entertain your request. You can snorkel, kayak and paddleboard around the area. The corals are very nice here. The staff here was very helpful and friendly, I would like to thank Dato' (owner), Mandy and Sam and other staff for your hospitality. We Will definitely come back here!

The scenery is even more beautiful than the pictures! You can see many schools of fish and quillfish on the shore of the island! The sand is really white, especially the tail beach after low tide. You can also take great photos at night

Free round-trip airport transfer service: 5 points for this, the driver is good Environment: Snorkeling quality is generally not recommended, the scenery is very good, the scenery in Semporna is basically very good Hygiene: The room is the standard of a fast hotel, it is clean, but there is no Internet in the room Service: Very poor, I posted an experience article on the platform, and the store owner came to quarrel with me The cause of the incident: We bought 13 mantis shrimps, and the restaurant on the island charged 50 Malaysian ringgits/kg for processing. We chose to accept it, but when the dishes were served, the 10 shrimps from the next table were given to us, and our 13 shrimps were given to them, and the neighbors ate first When we ate, we found that there were fewer shrimps, and asked the boss. The boss's attitude was that we made a mistake, not 13. Later, we repeatedly emphasized that we would not make a mistake, and each one was fresh. She went to the kitchen and took a dead one, saying that the kitchen did not tell us because there was a dead one. This is not right because there should be 12 of them. The boss came back and said that the order was wrong, and we ate the 10 big ones next door (meaning we took advantage). First of all, I have to complain: In fact, we would not have any objection if she admitted that she made a mistake at the beginning, but the boss's attitude from beginning to end was to never admit it and said that we had a problem. In the end, she also meant that we got a bargain and ate the big ones. This is a typical attitude and character problem! In addition, she meant that we felt that 50 Malaysian ringgits per kilogram was expensive and we could not eat it. We chose to accept this fee because we lived on the island and could not go to other places, but at the same time we also said that we felt it was expensive. The boss was not happy and said that we felt that we could not eat it if we felt it was expensive, but we had to say it was expensive and felt bad after eating it. Shouldn't everyone write reviews when they go to a restaurant and feel that it is not appropriate to express it after eating? Summary: Combining these two things, I think the attitude of the owner of this restaurant is extremely bad, the quality is poor, and he doesn't let people tell the truth. I have been to so many countries, and this is the first time I have encountered such a Summary: If you are not afraid of this kind of service, just go and be the victim.

The driver who picked us up at Tawau Airport was a little scared to enter the small grass when we were approaching the pier, haha. After meeting Mandy after arriving on the island, the room was arranged for us, and then we started diving and arranged several employees. Then we started diving. They were very enthusiastic and attentive, and they didn't care about tips. They didn't care about themselves. Whether it was food, drink, accommodation, or transportation, Mandy arranged it carefully. We all had a great time and felt it was worth it. Especially the Filipino girl Yangyang. She was not tired of taking photos and accompanying her while diving. She was very patient and sincere from the heart. She even cried when we left. Overall, I will come again next time.

Private island! It's really quiet and cozy, no one disturbs you, and the environment is very good and clean. You can go island hopping on Mabul Island, but this island is very beautiful, with a tailing beach, snorkeling to see schools of fish, canoeing and banana boats, lunch and dinner with crabs and prawns, I stayed for two days and was able to pick up and drop off, the boss is very nice! Highly recommended! !

Thousands of words can be summed up in one sentence: Come again next time! The crew, diving instructors and all other staff were very enthusiastic. They took us to the beach to find crabs and take photos of the stars. It was very interesting. The island is small, quiet and clean. You will definitely not regret coming here.

All the good things (sea water, beach, fish, wind, staff, rooms, food, night view) are here. I originally only wanted to experience it for one night, but it was so beautiful that I stayed one more night.

The island environment is good, with scenery everywhere. I saw the Milky Way and a few blue tears. I also went sea fishing. There were many hermit crabs. When the tide was high, you could enjoy the sea breeze, drink tea and fish. When the tide was low, you could stroll on the beach. It was a pity that I forgot to swim with sharks this time. I will take the children there next time.

It's super beautiful. The room is better than expected. The food is also very in line with Chinese tastes. I was not used to eating in the water house a few days ago. The boss is also super nice. It's worth it. I'm already looking forward to coming here again next time.

The four-color jelly sea, when the tide is low, you will encounter a long trailing beach At night you can see the sky full of stars and blue tears - Arrival from the private pier. Island hopping to Mabul and Mataking is very convenient. The environment is very quiet, the water quality and sea view are unparalleled The snorkeling instructor will also take you to see Nemo and the giant sea turtles

It's very good. The boss and the front desk can speak Chinese. They have added WeChat in advance and there is no barrier to communication. Lunch is provided, so it is recommended to bring some food to the island. The scenery is really beautiful and everyone is very enthusiastic. After leaving the store, he helped me deliver things to the town. It was really nice. I recommend staying here.

Free round-trip boat transfer service: Free transfer at the pier, the scenery is beautiful, 360 degrees around the sea, you can watch the sunrise and sunset, the bright moon on the sea, experience the pontoon and deep diving, and see sea turtles on the pontoon. There are more deep dives, thanks to the island owner for contacting me. When we went for deep diving, the coach bought a basket of big crabs from the fishermen for the hotel and served them on the table in the evening. My wife and I had a lot of fun. We went to Longtail Beach every night. There were many starfish, and occasionally we could see glowing ones. Blue Tears, very satisfied, stayed there for 4 days!
