Sutera Sanctuary Lodges At Manukan Island

One of our best experience. Best part about Manukan Sutera lodge 1) very helpful and friendly staff. 2) i booked 2 rooms. They gave me adjoining room. Super helpful for family with kids. 3) very spacious rooms. 4) sunset viewpoint is a big plus. U get the see the beautiful sunset. But have to walk 1.5km to and another 1.5km back. 5) private beach is helpful for guests so that we don't have to share the public beach with the rest of the visitors. U get to see more fish and corals because fewer tourists to scare away the fish 6) free rental snorkeling equipment. 7) delicious and sumptuous breakfast. 8) easy boat transport. Free overnightt parking at sutera marina club. Disadvantages 1) no data signal or wifi in the room.have to go to reception for wifi or data signal. 2) dinner is slightly more expensive because there is only 1 restaurant, so no other choices. But food is delicious, even for the fried rice (see pic)

I was a bit reluctant at first to go on an island resort (in case it's bad, you're trapped!) But this resort made me change my mind on KK! Their restaurant has amazing food! Probably the best I had during my stay in Malaysia. Beach was cleaned every morning, and different areas of the island gave the feeling of different beaches. Great pool as well, only for in house guest, so we were alone all the time. Some hiking trail (but easy one) to cross the island and see the sunset.. I'll be back for sure !

Sutera Resort was absolutely stunning. Our villa was clean and comfortable, featuring two balconies with breathtaking views of the private beach. The service was excellent, with friendly and helpful staff. Watching the sunset at the point was magical, and snorkeling and diving were definite highlights of our stay. I highly recommend this resort for a memorable getaway.

Nice and comfortable Lodges with good amenities. Friendly and helpful staff. The breakfast was delicious & the restaurant served delicious food. I've booked 2 rooms. but one of the rooms had a lot of mosquitoes & the TV screen is flickering. This lodge got an exclusive nice private beach separately from the public visitor. The first day when we arrived at the Island, the beach had a lot of plastic bottles & waste found on the shore & floating in the sea. The authorities had taken swift action and cleaned all the waste on the beach & sea. Then it's become much cleaner.

Firstly I'd like to say the island is beautiful. The water was clear for snorkelling and the weather great. The one thing that I didn't like was the advertised private beach area. The daytime tourists use the beach and the deck chairs. There is no staff to tell them they can't use them. They just come and use. There's not much exclusivity about the resort during the daytime. Evening is better.

Service good. Food nice. Facilities good. The staff nice and helpful. Feel comfortable staying there
