Malaysia Trip Part 2 - Shangri-La Rasa Ria Resort

Deluxe Room - Photo by Shangri-La Rasa Ria

In Part 2, we spent 4 nights at Shangri-La Rasa Ria Resort in Kota Kinabalu.

Rasa Ria is about an 45min car ride from the airport, but depending on traffic it could take upto 1.5 hours, so make sure you allow plenty of time when catching a plane. After you check in at the resort you can choose to relax or get your activities planed out with the activity coordinators. At Rasa Ria they offer a two or three free activities through out the day, such as cooking class, yoga and beach volleyball. There are also a wide variety of motorised water sports available, we had lots of fun with the jet ski and segway. The resort has a few fine dinning restaurants and a few casual places on site that are on par with what we can get here in Sydney, the buffet breakfast however was quite average.

On TripAdvisor.com Rasa Ria is rated the best resort in Kota Kinabalu, and it's not hard to see why once you've stayed there.
