I recently stayed at Ritz Residence, IMAGO Mall (Loft B) and the experience was nothing short of outstanding. The moment I entered, I was greeted by an atmosphere of pure cleanliness and refined comfort. Every part of the residence was impeccably maintained — spotless floors, fresh linens, and a level of care that truly sets it apart. What impressed me most was how generous they were with amenities. From high-quality toiletries to thoughtful touches that made the stay smoother and more enjoyable, everything was well-planned and top-notch. Even without kitchen facilities, the residence offered more than enough luxury and convenience to ensure a seamless stay. The rooms were beautifully designed, spacious, and undeniably elegant. The bed was exceptionally comfortable, giving me some of the best sleep I’ve had in a long time. Every detail — from the décor to the lighting and premium furnishings — contributed to a truly elevated experience.

Love the waterfront set up.

Love the waterfront set up. Good place for morning leisurely walks the one-kilometer-long promenade lined offering panoramic river views. This waterfront is offered safe and romantic atmosphere, easy going where you can unwind with drink, watch sunset, river cruise and night bazaar. Kucing is widely celebrated as true food paradise, offering incredible variety of flavors. We had tried many local dishes that blend mixed with Malay, Chinese, Indian and of cause the Borneo food tradition. There are many new F&B outlets to choose, from small roadside stall up to fine dining restaurant, all offer selection of popular menu for you to taste. Can't wait for out next trip...

Nice city. It was more modern than I expected.

Nice city. It was more modern than I expected. Please note that you will not be able to see any orangutans in the area: the one in the KK wildlife park is a older, lethargic one. You will be able to see the big-nosed monkeys in a day tour or the wildlife park near the city. For oragutans, you really have to travel to another Borneo city hours away. So check your expectations if this is your reason to come to Borneo. In fact, all places to see around KK are far to reach. Day trips take a long time, getting out and back to the city. The marine park across the city is worth trying but despite the pier, the ticket system remains confusing and not easy for non-Malay visitors.

There’s not a lot to do or see in Sempora. It’s a jump off spot to local diving and islands. The best coffee I found is at McDonalds.

Bought my Australian friend to view the Kundasang War Memorial, was a good place to learn about history and enjoy the fresh air and amazing views of the surrounding area. We ate sayap (Sabah-style BBQ honey chicken wings) and had a walkaround at the local markets selling various veges and fruits. Walking alongside the locals really gave a huge sneak peek into the lives of the people there. Rent a car if you wanna visit Kundasang fully, I am a local who only brought my foreign friend and we all had an amazing time.

Sukau is very quiet with friendly local people.

Sukau is very quiet with friendly local people. You cannot find a bar or restaurant apart from where you are staying. There is no alcohol available due to their Muslim religion, however you can bring your own but also bring an esky. It is very unspoiled and a nice place to relax and enjoy the peace of the jungle. The boat tours are 3 times per day, where you can see many different birds, monkeys and if you are lucky like we were, the pygmy elephants. All of this is seen from a narrow boat on the river holding around 10 people. I highly recommend Sukau and particularly the Tommanggong River B&B. The accommodation for 2 was around AUS$50 /night and the tours approx AUS$25/person. The guide was excellent and very knowledgeable about the river, plants and animals. I highly recommend this tour for people of all ages and origins.

excellent trip if you want to enjoy an eco-resort in the midst of nature. Villas were clean and well equipped. The tree houses looked interesting but it had a steep steps to climb to. I had to book the villas as there was 3 of us. No regrets though. They have a private beach and all the staff speak English. The cafe serves reasonably priced food but they only have buffet breakfast if the guests are more than 35. Only downside is it is difficult to Grab around that area.
