Tanjung Aru - Honeymoon

Recommended Posts

Hi all,

Has anyone been to Tanjung Aru Resort for either honeymoon or holiday? How is it? Is Tanjung Aru nicer or Sutera Harbour nicer?

I saw on their website, they are offering a 4D/3N honeymoon package inclusive of 60 min spa for 2 persons, champange, breakfast daily, 1 set dinner for two, honeymoon gifts for RM1820 per couple.

I thought that was quite good. Any comments?

Hi Niq,

Are you talking about Tg Aru and Sutera Harbour Sabah? Im actually from Sabah, kk. Both the resorts are nice actually. Tg Aru resort is by the Tg Aru beach and if you are staying there you can have a walk at the Tg Aru beach. There are hawkers stall and restaurant around.

If you play golf then you can choose Sutera Harbour. There's a golf course and its quite near to the KK city.

There's another resort called Nexus resort. This resort is very far from the city but its a very nice resort and there's golf course too. Maybe you can check out their website http://www.nexusresort.com/

Out of the 3 resorts i think Nexus is the best :)

hi icy,

yup, i'm talking about Tanjung Aru and Sutera Harbour in Sabah.

How far is Karmabrunai from the city? Is it easy to get food there other than the hotel food? Cause if there r no shops around etc, hotels tend to charge a bomb for their food like in Pangkor Laut Resort.

Hi girls,

My favourite resort in KK is the Shangri-la resort in Tanjung Aru. Maybe I'm biased because I grew up in Tanjung Aru (the town, not the resort. :) ).

icy,

I finally found someone from KK in this forum!! Are you going to have your wedding in KK? I'm trying to find a good MUA in KK. Don't know where to start.... :lol:

niq,

Karmabrunai is very far away from the city centre. It is in the middle of nowhere. Maybe the hotel will provide the transport link to the city centre.

I personally find it not as classy as the Tg Aru resort and Sutera Harbour resort.

hi mish,

thanks for ur feedback.

Will KIV this Tanjung Aru honeymoon package till nearer my wedding date. Right now, I'm still praying and hoping that my FH would agree to a honeymoon outside Malaysia, but if not, Tanjung Aru's package sounds pretty good and affordable.

hi,

i prefer karambrunai than tanjung aru and sutera harbour... if you like beach, karambrunai has the most natural beach among the 3... i hv been to all 3... but karambrunai i went twice, the latest was CNY 2006... we went there by own car, so we do not hv transport problem... we take outside food sometimes... tanjung aru beach not that clean, sutera harbour not very natural feel... but in terms of transportation, tanjung aru and sutera harbour more convenient...

Niq,

Jocelyn is right about the beach! As I’m not a beach person, I didn’t take Karambunai’s beach in consideration. :P

If you stay in Karambunai, maybe you should consider hiring a car.

Dear All,

Just wanted to know..Tanjung Aru better or Sutera Harbour better? I have been to KK before for mount climbing, but now as for my honeymoon..I might consider going to KK as I love the beach/island at KK very much...so wandering between Tanjung Aru and Sutera Harbour, which one is better in terms of relaxation and view?

Appreciate all the comments given..

Rgds,
