Shangri-La Tanjung Aru, Kota Kinabalu
About the hotel
"Arguably the most luxurious resort in Kota Kinabalu, Shangri-La’s Tanjung Aru Resort & Spa boasts a private beach, a robust dining scene and an indulgent spa."
The resort's aesthetic channels the brand's signature vibe: the feel is grand and sumptuous, though not particularly novel. Guestrooms feel a tad impersonal, though the addition of Borneo-inspired accents (think vibrant modern artwork and bursts of colour throughout) add a welcome feeling of life. All of the 498 rooms and suites are bright and airy thanks to enormous windows that frame views of the sea or Mount Kinabalu.

The resort's aesthetic channels the brand's signature vibe: the feel is grand and sumptuous, though not particularly novel. Guestrooms feel a tad impersonal, though the addition of Borneo-inspired accents (think vibrant modern artwork and bursts of colour throughout) add a welcome feeling of life. All of the 498 rooms and suites are bright and airy thanks to enormous windows that frame views of the sea or Mount Kinabalu. Private outdoor spaces encourage guests to enjoy the fresh air, and en-suite bathrooms are pleasantly spacious. If you’re travelling with little ones, consider booking the Kinabalu Family Room which features enchanting decor that will delight the resort's youngest guests.
Three restaurants and the same number of bars and lounges keep things interesting at mealtimes, with an impressive assortment of flavours and cuisines sure to suit every palate. The contemporary Café TATU features an open-kitchen layout and live cooking stations; here you’ll find everything from tandoori and noodle dishes to buffet breakfasts in the morning. Coco-Joe’s Bar & Grill serves barbecue on the beach with fabulous cocktails and views of the South China Sea, while Shang Palace is much-loved for its dim sum and elevated Cantonese cuisine. In the evening, head to the Borneo Lounge & Bar for live music and a libation, or visit the Sunset Bar for spellbinding views and a romantic atmosphere. Guests of all ages will enjoy Cool Box Ice Cream Bar which has a mouthwatering menu of milkshakes, sundaes and more.
Chi, The Spa, is designed as a standalone spa village on a separate island linked to the hotel by a private causeway. There, traditional plant-based Borneo treatments reflect the region's rich heritage as they restore and invigorate. If you’d prefer to increase your heart rate rather than lower it, you’ll find myriad ways to stay active on both land and sea, whether that means a workout in the fitness centre, a jog on the private beach or partaking in any of the endless opportunities for water sports both on the waves and below them.
