Facing the seafront in Kota Belud, Bigfin beach resort features a private beach area. Offering a restaurant, the property also has a garden. The property provides sea views and a terrace.

At the resort, every room is fitted with a balcony that opens up to views of the sea and the mountain. Absolutely everything. I can’t fault it at all. It was even better in person than in the pictures, i LOVED it and was sad to leave. I loved the staff too, learning to dive with them was incredible and im so happy to have the memories
