“Idyllic Villa in s stunning location - one of the best trips we have ever had!”
This was the first time that we booked out accommodation through trip adviser - we were not disappointed. The hosts - never before have we met more kind and accommodating hosts than with Molly and Ducket (and their lovely daughter Mel). From the initial contact via email, to their support through our stay - they made us feel like so much more than renters, we felt like part of the family! They had a vast knowledge of the area. They looked after our every need - including allowing my (vast) family to enjoy various visits and BBQs at the property. My dad is from KK and we visit every few years to see our HUGE family. They even made me cakes for my birthday! Molly and Ducket really are one of the most genuine and lovely couples I have ever met. We feel very lucky to have met them. The villa - even the stunning photos on TripAdvisor do not do this villa justice. We were visiting my family in KK. There were four of us in total - myself, my partner and my parents. My mother is disabled and so kindly, Molly put us in a ground flour apartment. It opened up straight onto the terrace and pool. It was perfect for my mum's needs! There were two extremely comfortable bedrooms and two bathrooms. The apartment was finished to a high standard and there was a feeling of luxurious elegance throughout. Plenty of room to not be treading on each others toes. The living room came stocked with DVDs, CDs and books. The kitchen was well equipped and spacious. Molly was so lovely and helped us stock the kitchen, she sent us a shopping list - we selected and paid and the food was waiting for us when we got there. Believe me after the mammoth flight there it was great to not have to worry about food shopping! The location - the one requirement for staying at the villa is that you are able to drive. Karambunai is about a 30/40 minute drive from the centre of KK (this is largely due to traffic congestion.) But it is well worth the drive. The villa is located on the beach. The beach is basically private - it is not open to the public, just guests of the resort It was mostly empty when we visited in September/October. It was an unbelievably tranquil experience. There is the nexus hotel just along the beach. This has a shop, restaurant and bar and more pools, it was busier but great to have the amenities within walking distance. If you have the opportunity to visit Sabah, I heartily recommend staying in the villa. It has given us the most wonderful memories that we will always treasure. It is perfect for honeymooners, families, couples and groups of friends! Thank you Molly and Ducket for a truly wonderful holiday experience.

“Perfect place for families with young children”
We had a lovely time at the Beachfront suites. The suites were spotless and the Swiming pool and the beach very nice. Our hosts were extremely kind and helpful and the fact that you can either make your own food or take a free shutle to the Nexus restaurants only 5 min away.

“Comfortable stay in peaceful paradise”
The apartments are fresh and well equipped, and located in peaceful surroundings by what is probably Borneo's most beautiful beach. Although outside the Nexus resort, you can still enjoy everything the resort has to offer. Excellent service by the wonderful couple who does the renting out of these privately owned apartments. Rental car would perhaps have been preferable, as the nearest supermarket is a bit of a drive away. But the resort provides shuttle both to the Borneo1 mall and to downtown KK. The resort is a bit more run-down than the nearby Shangri-La RasaRia, but much more peaceful! We definitely recommend this place if a peaceful and relaxing beach/pool holiday in beautiful surroundings is what you are looking for. Stunning sunsets!

“Beautiful beachfront appartment”
We stayed for five nights, the appartment is tastefully furnished and well appointed. The pool and beach were right in front of the building, the facilities are clean and well maintained. The scenery is quite stunning and the whole resort is very quiet and peaceful. Of course it is very far from the nearest shops and restaurants, about a half-hour drive, so you need a car. There is hardly anyone there. I think we were alone in our building. Which I liked. The actual hotel is a half-hour walk along the beach. Use plenty of repellent in the morning and at dusk as the sand-flies can be vicious. Molly and Derek, the owners, live in the next block and were very welcoming and helpful.

“Relaxing”
We stayed for 12 days. Suite is beautifully decorated with a very relaxed ambience. Incredible sea view from the balcony. Beach is awesome. Staffs are friendly and always willing to assist. Overall, we had a wonderful, relaxed and memorable stay. We would most definitely be coming back.

“Couldn't ask for better!”
We had just finished a ten day tour through the rainforests of Borneo and this apartment on the beach was our reward for all the hard work! We stayed three nights and it was absolutely lush. It is on the first floor of the Pool Villa block directly facing the pool and sea. The apartment is really rather large, with a great kitchen, bedroom and massive bathroom space. The owners (Molly and Duncan) were really helpful with the booking, payment and tips to help our stay more comfortable. If you decide to stay here, visit the Ting Hong supermarket on your way out of Kota Kinabalu and stock up on snack foods, cheeses, cold cuts, whatever you like. It was nice to cook while we were on holiday, but if you are not into that, there is one restaurant and bar at this location, or you can head down to the Nexus Resort and access all of the restaurants and bars over there. We really liked how quiet and chilled out it was here compared to the Nexus. The beaches were better maintained here and the beach was often quiet due to there being less guests. We really enjoyed our stay and would definitely go back! Great for chilling out, family holiday or a romantic getaway! To check in, you just go to reception and show the booking form from Molly and you check in as you would in a hotel, very easy. The people at the complex are just so lovely and among some of the friendliest people we have ever met on holiday!
