Top Tip of Borneo Hotel Reviews

Kudat Riviera

Kudat Riviera

10/10 Excellent
"Easily the most amazing property I have ever stayed at (beating some world-class resorts in the Maldives for example). The Savah Sunset Villa, that we had all to ourselves, is the size of a tennis court but has two storeys. The grounds of that one villa down to the beach are the size of a football pitch. The private pool is bigger (and deeper) than many hotels' communal pools. The staff even come to your villa to cook breakfast. The sandy beach and ocean are spectacular. Sunset was heavenly. It is a mystery why this property is undiscovered. Maybe the four-hour drive from Kota Kinabalu is off-putting, but it's an easy trip and well worth it."
