A few minutes by boat from the islands of Sipadan and Mabul but a full world away from them lies the exhilarating Sipadan-Kapalai Dive Resort, sitting on its sturdy stilts on the shallow sandbanks of the Ligitan Reefs. Planned and built in full style as an airy, comfortable, sunny water village with no land in sight, it boasts a mile-long sandbank of powdery white sand where one can suntan at complete leisure while gazing out to the miles of brilliant turquoise stretching into the horizon offering the purest image of natural serenity. Dive spots are extremely close and can be reached in just a few minutes by speedboat and some of them, actually, just by swimming from the dive center pier. For those who are ready to explore more than the tiny marvels of Kapalai’s macro life, can, in just a few minutes, dive in Sipadan (where big fish and turtles abound) or in Mabul (where silky and muddy bottoms offer different and equally pleasant experiences and opportunities to the lovers of “muck diving”). With a combination of sun and water in a unique and serene setting with friendly staff, Sipadan-Kapalai is an ideal destination for diver and non diver alike seeking a great holiday experience! Sipadan-Kapalai Dive Resort is accessible through Semporna Jetty.Show More

Very good, clean environment, clean sea water, turtles, fish... It was my first time staying in a water house, and it was beyond my expectations. Three meals a day were included in the hotel, and there was airport pick-up, which was really comfortable. I would like to say that some previous reviews said that the three meals were average, and that if you don't come to the restaurant in time to eat, you will have nothing to eat. I don't think so. On the contrary, the meals are very rich and good. I will come again next time.

On the first night, I was assigned to room 90. When the tide was low, there was no sea outside the window like a salt-alkali land. On the second night, I applied to change to room 69. The view was great but the signal was extremely poor. The public area of the hotel is very beautiful. Every photo you take is beautiful. The food is acceptable, but there is a queue when the meal starts. The mobile phone signal is really poor except in the front desk area, and you have to pay for wifi.

First of all, don’t stay for more than 2 nights. It will get boring after a long time, because there is no TV, the mobile phone signal is not good, and even WeChat cannot be opened when it is bad. The scenery is still very beautiful, especially when diving here, you can see big turtles and different kinds of fish at any time. Very cool. The buffet restaurant is average, and the facilities in the room are also average, which is the domestic Confucian standard.

The scenery in Kapalai is very good, with many corals. There are fish schools for snorkeling in the hotel, but the snorkeling area is too small, so you can only snorkel in that area. The hotel provides buffet with three meals a day, and the food is not as good as dozens in the country. The buffet is good, and you can stay on the island for at most two days, then stay for one or two nights to rest after island hopping.

There are snakes on the island, friends who like it can pay attention to it;
There are no life-saving facilities in the house;
Beautiful, comfortable and pleasant environment
