Semporna Dream Villa

Summary: The service is not good, it's OK that the service is not good, the waiter has a bad face, but the attitude changes 180 degrees when meeting foreign white tourists, and they greet them with a smile. It's understandable that you can't eat food or pork in the room, but what's the point of not letting you wear shoes in the room? The price of the hotel in the town is similar. If I come next time, I may choose the hotel in the town. The soundproofing of the room is also poor, but the environment is okay, the air is fresh, and it's not as noisy as the city.

I have been to Semporna twice. The first time I came, I stayed in the town and was left with a lot of trauma. The endless spiders, cockroaches and ants scared me like a northerner to death. This is my first time to this homestay. First of all, the price is low (the first experience made me feel that it is a waste to spend money to stay in Semporna 😂). I didn't have much hope for this place, but I found that the courtyard was clean, which was a pleasant surprise. The room is large and the environment is hygienic. The thinner local Malay aunt is friendly, efficient and hardworking, and easy to get along with. The courtyard of the homestay is 3km away from the city, and it costs 5-7 Malaysian ringgits to take a taxi (Malays occasionally increase the price temporarily during peak hours, and it is 5-7 Malaysian ringgits if you don't agree) There are supermarkets and some residential shops and restaurants nearby. There are simple fried noodles and fried rice, which are good value for money. The night market stalls are also good, but I like spicy food and think their rice is sweet. Foodies can go and try it by themselves. This homestay is very suitable for divers to stop and stay temporarily. The boss will send everyone to the pier at 8 am every day and pick everyone up at 5 pm. The boss can also report the itinerary and take the diving course here. You can go there for consultation. The price is not high. When I booked the room, I saw bad reviews in the comment area. After staying in the homestay for 8 days, I concluded: This homestay is not a hotel. It is different from the hotel's complete supporting services. It is not suitable for giant babies who have difficulty taking care of themselves and have high requirements, little money in their pockets and many problems. This homestay is very cost-effective and inexpensive. It is the best homestay for rest. The boss is a Malaysian Chinese. According to my observations of getting along for a few days, the boss pays more attention to mutual respect. It is recommended that people with online quality who can understand and respect others come to live. At the same time, the boss is a little arrogant, and the steel straight man's personality is not used to bad habits, which is different from the domestic customers who are God's kneeling service environment. Please evaluate your own needs before choosing. After a few days with the boss, you will find that he is a sincere and warm man who will take care of everyone and is a little bit second-year. But he is very good and will consider a lot from the perspective of the guests. The small courtyard is very comfortable with a cool breeze, and there are several cats. I love cats very much. I feel very healed by petting cats every day. There are many people staying in the guest room, but it doesn't feel noisy. It is suitable for resting and unloading fatigue after diving. After staying for a few days, I felt as comfortable as my grandmother's yard when I was a child. It is worthy of the four words "home away from home". So for the above reasons, I, who have never been too lazy to write reviews and no more than 5 words, strongly recommend this homestay. 😊I must refute the bad reviews. I can only say that the people who make bad reviews have never been to Semporna and don't understand the accommodation situation in the town. . . 😂 I didn't return the 50 Malaysian ringgit deposit. I hope to give it to the aunt as a tip.
