Best place, best environment, and best employers. They still provided an iron even though it wasn’t available initially. Very recommended

Resort mainly Cater for chinese tourist including the Agent . Communication/ info mainly in mandarin Despite we communicate in English except resort staffs which are mainly local. The facilities and food not on par the price tag . The only positive point Of the resort in the view directly facing Bohey Dulang which many other resorts also providing similiar view with the fraction of the cost . Overall ; not worth it with price tag charged to guest

My stay at Jelly Sea Resorts was incredible. We were amazed at the view from the resort, the clear water, and the Bohey Dulang view from afar. We were told that we were the first Malay to stay at the resort (mostly Chinese tourists), it was such an achievement and honored 🥇😂. The room was big enough and what we liked about the room was that it had a patio where we could relax, provided with a netting bed and a ladder to go down swimming or snorkeling right from our own room. I would recommend Jelly Sea Resorts to anyone who wants to experience Semporna. It also provides 3 meals a day (breakfast-lunch-dinner) included in your booking and a boat transfer from the land to the resort and vice versa. The only thing we would comment on for improvement is to provide toilet bidet sprayer.

A 2 star hotel with a 5 star location/view that is poorly set-up for English speaking travellers. The location is incredible but sadly everything else is a bit bleek given the price. Pros: - Location - Live Music Cons: - Poorly maintained buildings with a significant amount of mould in the shower. - Poor English communication including incorrect/confusing pre-arrival instructions. One staff member on-site spoke very minimal english. - The ammenities are very basic i.e No bar but you can buy cans of beer from a luke-warm fridge. - Disposable cutlerly is used in the dining hall and given the amount of plastic in the ocean feels criminal.

It is a water villa specially designed for mainland Chinese tourists. Foreigners are discouraged. View is perfect for pool villa. 3 meals+ afternoon tea are included. You can only reach the villa by boat at their scheduled timing. You will be charged extra for rescheduling boat even if it is due to flight delay. The steps to the sea is very slippery, I have slipped down almost everytime. The swimming pool is filled with moss. The bathtub has hair & dust in it. No housekeeping unless you ask. There is no TV, Wifi & Fridge. Overall, just for views it is worth it.

Good place to stay. It is located far away from Semporna so that the light pollution is way less than the other resorts I suspect.

Considering everything, this resort is situated in a picturesque sea setting offering breathtaking sunset views. While there is room for improvement in terms of cleanliness, the food and the friendly staff service enhance the overall experience.

It was a very satisfying trip. The children lived in the water house they had always dreamed of. At night, they lay on the Internet to watch the stars and watch TV series. It was very comfortable. The journey was a bit far. We flew from China to Kota Kinabalu and then to Semporna, and then took a car to the pier and stayed in the water house on the boat. It took 80 minutes by car and 20 minutes by boat. There was WIFI in the water house, and the signal was not bad. The food was so-so. There were activities in the evening to sing. I had to mention that the seafood I bought on the boat was processed by the boss. It was super delicious. I was satisfied overall.
