What guests think
Across recent reviews of Shangri-La Tanjung Aru, Kota Kinabalu, guests praise the friendly service, family‑oriented facilities and pools, beautiful sunsets, and convenient airport access, while noting dated rooms, occasional cleanliness lapses, and crowded, mixed‑quality breakfasts.
Families value the kids’ slides, activities, and on-site Star Marina for easy island trips, plus the useful Star Lounge access after checkout. Common drawbacks include the resort’s distance from town and sunset traffic, some maintenance wear and occasional service delays at check-in or for requests. Food options are plentiful, though prices can be high and opinions on taste vary. Expect a lively, well-equipped resort stay with standout views and warm staff.

Location
Scenic seaside setting near the airport with beautiful sunsets and an on-site jetty. However, it’s far from the city, so most guests use Grab/taxis, and traffic can be heavy around sunset.
