We greatly enjoyed our stay at Gayana Eco Resort. We had a comfortable and roomy sea view villa built on stilts over the lagoon. Tip: Ask about the recreation opportunities and equipment . The use of kayaks and much more was included in our rate. However, in April, 2009, there was no in-room guide to the activities and equipment available. more

Had a great time at the resort. Food is quality and overall setting is very peaceful. Excellent array of activities on offer and not too far away. The pool is a good size for chilling out after a long jungle trek or dive. Very affordable compared to other similiar places in the region but experience is not compromised. Really enjoyed... more

Having spent a week trekking in the jungle we were so looking forward to this but unfortunately it was not to be what we had signed for.... What is good: - the deluxe chalets with ocean views and direct access to the sea are tastefully decorated and have all that you would expect from a luxurious resort (a/c, fancy tv,... more

The resort is nice, but for the same amount of money, you get a much better resort in Thailand with much better food and especially service. First, DO NOT book directly with the hotel, they can't give you a good rate, and the on line reservation staff is not at all helpful, the only thing they can offer is the... more

I stayed at the Gayana Ecoresort for a night as a birthday treat for my partner. I'd been a little concerned that it wouldn't live up to its website or price, but in fact I was delighted and we had a lovely experience. At the Jesselton jetty we were treated very nicely, and the short boat ride was pleasant. On... more

We stayed at Gayana Eco Resort for four nights as a part of our 14 day Borneo Trip. After all the Jungle Trips and trekking this was the right place to come to. The Resort is just beautiful. The Staff is extremly friendly & helpful (especially Edward). We stayed at the Deluxe Seaview Villa which has direct access to the... more

This was 1 of 2 hotels we stayed at in KK (the other was Shangri-La Tanjung Aru). In comparison I enjoyed the exclusivity of Gayana much more than Shangri-la. Unfortunately only stayed there 1 night but made use of a full 24hrs worth of facilities before leaving, wished it was longer! Main reason for hotel - island water sports /... more

My husband and I were in KK for 8 days in Mar09 and we stayed in 4 hotels - Jesselton, Gayana, Mercure and Imperial International. Do read my review of each as all offered something different. We stayed 3 days 2 nights in Lagoon View room #5. Our story : - The room, bathroom and the resort in general were... more

Was looking for a quite getaway for a short break and found this resort as an ideal location for much needed R&R. Arrived at Kota Kinabalu Airport with a transfer waiting to take us the 10 minute journey to Jessleton Pier for the boat transfer to the resort (if you book please make sure you book the right flight as... more
