Me and my bf have visited to Mabul, Sipadan & Kapalai in the August and we stayed 5days 4 nights at SMART Mabul Divers Resort. We have choose to stay at the standard chalet. The room no doubt is very basic, no TV. But very spacious. 1 Thing i like most is it has a balcony that facing to the... More

Was very excited about this resort but ended up disappointed. I booked a standard bungalow - big mistake - if you are going there then make the effort and book the water bungalow. My room was clean but very basic and very tired. Nowhere to sit out front - very dark adn dingy. The water bungalows looked amazing and I... More

Sipadan Mabul Resort is a brilliant place to escape to from the pressures of everyday life and to enjoy some great hospitality and world class diving at Sipadan.

And there were several dives to unspoiled reefs with plenty of sharks, turtles, other fishes, and marine life. Getting... More

Nice bungalows on a beautiful island. however, one has to pay a lot for everything extra (e.g. small drink = 15 USD). Also high prices for scuba gear rental. the resort has only 10 divespots a day for Sipadan island. one is lucky to be able to go diving there. Mabul/Kapalai dives are nice, but not very exciting. if you... More
