Shangri La’s Tanjung Aru Resort is a 5-star resort hotel providing upmarket accommodation on a secluded peninsula fronting Kota Kinabalu’s waterfront.
Located about 15 minutes drive from Kota Kinabalu’s city centre and less than 10 minutes from Kota Kinabalu International Airport’s Terminal 1, it’s a convenient base from which to explore Sabah from.
With recently refurbished rooms and facilities, the Shangri La Tanjung Aru Resort may be one of Kota Kinabalu’s oldest beach-front resorts, but you could never tell by looking at it.
Most prominent recent addition is the very exclusive spa village, built on one of the island-outcrops attached to the resort, called Chi The Spa.
Inspired by Tibetan philosophies, the spa draws from nature’s elements to bring relaxing, soothing and healing treatments to guests, complementing their resort experience at Shangri La Tanjung Aru Resort.
A wealth of restaurants and bars means little temptation to leave the luxury and comfort of the resort, where the staff are friendly and service is efficient.
