Shangri-La Rasa Ria, Kota Kinabalu

Bed & Breakfast 7 nights from £1,029 per person Including Flights

Overview

Shangri-La’s Rasa Ria Resort & Spa is arguably Kota Kinabalu’s premier beach resort. Set on Pantai Dalit Beach, this stunning resort is nestled within over 400 acres of lush tropical vegetation and includes an awe-inspiring nature reserve.

420 well-appointed rooms and suites are spread across two wings; the Garden Wing and the Ocean Wing. Rooms in the Garden Wing encourage a sense of tranquillity whilst those in the Ocean Wing focus on privacy and luxury living.

Within the resort, there are countless facilities and activities to enjoy. We love the 18-hole championship golf course but tennis and horse riding are also popular activities at Rasa Ria. In addition to these, Rasa Ria also owns a number of catamarans, which can be used for cruises and deep-sea fishing trips.

Rasa Ria’s nature reserve is located on the resorts forested hills and covers an acre of 64 acres in total. It slopes uphill and peaks around 95 metres above sea level. Once inside the reserve, guests can enjoy treks through the forest as well as educational talks on the local flora and fauna.

Shangri-La’s Rasa Ria has everything you need for an unforgettable time away, and when combined with Shangri-La Kuala Lumpur, it makes the perfect twin centre holiday!
