Shangri-La Tanjung Aru Kota Kinabalu
Our Rating
8.6
Shangri-La Tanjung Aru, Kota Kinabalu, a serene five-star resort in Sabah, Malaysia, graces the beachfront 7 km from the city centre, welcoming families and leisure travellers with 498 elegantly appointed rooms and suites overlooking mountains or the sea, complemented by six restaurants, bars, and Chi, The Spa—one of only two five-star spas in the city—as a tranquil haven rooted in Asian healing traditions.
Infused with graceful decor, each spacious, air-conditioned room unfolds to a seating area and flat-screen satellite television, while private balconies with outdoor seating frame breathtaking ocean or mountain vistas, inviting quiet reflections. The en suite bathroom provides complimentary toiletries and a hairdryer, ensuring every detail whispers comfort amid the resort's gentle coastal rhythm.
Shang Palace enchants with refined Chinese specialties, from delicate dim sum to wok-tossed treasures, savoured in an atmosphere of poised elegance, while Borneo Lounge and Bar pairs light refreshments with live entertainment that draws evenings into soft melodies. The outdoor pool, alive with invigorating water jets, beckons for refreshing dips, and the kids' pool with playful waterslides sparks joyful splashes for little ones. A 9-hole golf course winds through the grounds for leisurely swings, and Chi, The Spa on private Pulau Bayu offers luxurious single and couples' villas alongside an open Yoga Pavilion for massages and restorative rituals, all while water sports like jet skiing, surfing, and diving stir the adventurous spirit.
Conveniently 7.3 km from Kota Kinabalu International Airport, a mere 10-minute drive from coral islands and the city, and just a 150-minute flight from Singapore, Hong Kong, or Kuala Lumpur, Shangri-La Tanjung Aru, Kota Kinabalu weaves effortless access to Sabah's coastal whispers and urban pulse.
