Exceptional staff and hotel
What a delightful stay ! From the moment we walked up the steps to the sound of the gong ,cool towels and refreshing drinks- friendly and accommodating staff - we knew we were in for a treat . Hotel surrounds and pool are beautiful , the yoga class in the morning right next to the water was a lovely way to start the day. Food plentiful and delicious with a huge variety of dishes. Always something going on and yet blissful places to be still and relaxed. The staff are always smiling and will go out of their way to help .Best 4 days we have spent in a long time - we will be back for sure - terima kasih Shangri La Tanjung Aru for a wonderful stay .

We really enjoyed our stay for 3 nights at the hotel. 3 nights went by so quickly that we wished that we could have stayed longer. The facilities offered by the hotel are excellent especially for families with children. Special mention to receptionist Dzarif for making our stay more memorable with the seaview room. Will really come back to stay in the hotel again in the future.

This a family resort which has a great location and beach area, however for the cost of the room the cleaning and overall maintenance in the room was terrible. We had a giant cockroach in the bathroom and mould in the silicon and grout of the bath. Not worth the 500 dollars a night price tag no matter how good the facilities
