200 metres from Filipino Market Sabah, The Shore CBD Kota Kinabalu By LAXZONE SUITE is a recently renovated property situated in Kota Kinabalu and features air-conditioned rooms with free WiFi and private parking. There is a private entrance at the apartment for the convenience of those who stay. The apartment offers parking on-site, an infinity pool and a lift.

The room is cozy & beautiful. They even allow us to late check out until 12.30pm. What i like more is that we can store our luggage in their office as we depart to airport at 4 pm. So we were able to walk around at Philippine market freely as it was just walking distant from the apartment( added value). I’ll surely recommend this.

    The villas were perfect for a relaxing few days at a nice pool and beach with a beautiful view. The apartment was beautiful and the staff were very nice (quick to reply to WhatsApp enquires). The kitchen was good enough for cooking our own food most of the time. We had a hire car, which I would say you really need if you go there, it’s a little far from any shops or anything.

    The villa was lovely, looking out across to the beach. Staff were very friendly and helpful and the breakfast was excellent. Walking in to the sea at 7am and being able to snorkel with no one else around was amazing, seeing loads of fish and coral. Private beach was just that and the staff would bring us drinks and snacks. The Island was busy from 9am until 4pm, but after that we had the place almost to ourselves. We will return.
