Everything is true, after all the reviews I had read I was worried we might be disappointed. But it was just the most wonderful place. A true little paradise island. it's not brash and over the top, everything is low key, informal and that's part of it's charm. You feel you really are in the middle of the Sulu Sea.... more

This little island is so beautiful! The bungalows, chalets, are spacious and very nice, right on the beach. We had two wooden sun loungers on the beach in front of the chalet veranda, as well as a hammock in the palm tree. Honeymoon material for sure (beds quite hard though, as we found in every hotel in Sabah). Although, we... more

First impressions upon arrival - paradise, however, at the time of our visit the villa allocated did make a difference. We were first allocated number 8 which is the through route for all arrivals, departures and anyone going to / from the dive boats. It was also next to a building under considerable reconstruction, meaning that the lap of the... more

After a week in the Mabul purgatory, we arrived in heaven! Lankayan island resort is fantastic. Peaceful, great staff, friendly helpful and fun. The dive operation is run smoothly, the dive masters are professional, organised, always helpful and good at spotting small stuff as well as larger animals (we saw a number of sharks including bamboo, leopard, white and black... more

I went here with my husband and teenage daughter. We enjoyed every moment of the stay and we were already talking about going back the moment we arrived back at the mainland. We enjoyed a delicious breakfast everyday - including pancakes, waffles, eggs , etc. We then signed up for 3 dives everyday. The first dive would always be relativly... more

This place was highly recommended and had also seen rave reviews on here. It was beautiful, but for the price I would have expected plusher furnishings, functioning toilt & shower, we had to move cabins as ours didn't work, and no drilling/construction in the day. We also had buffet meals which whilst nice, were not as special as we had... more

After 2 days of KK, we were ready to move on to a pre-booked trip to Lankayan Island for 5 days. I found this offer on the Internet and read some reviews which seems to suggestion Lankayan Island to be a nice, relaxing place that focuses on scuba diving so we booked it up hoping for the best. I was... more

We have just returned from a tour of Borneo followed by a week on Lankayan Island to recover. Everything about this island was perfect, far better than I could possibly have hoped - especially having never even heard of it before we went there! The bungalow was right on the beach with our own personal sun loungers and hammock. It... more

What a magic little island. We are a family of 3 (2 50yo+ plus 17yo daughter). I dive and they snorkel. After a nice speedboat ride of about 90mins we arrived at this little piece of paradise. We stayed in chalet No 20 which was the last one at the endof the new chalets that have been built. Very comfortable... more
