TIPS & ADVISE
Book your package several weeks in advance if you plan to stay at any water or island resort. During public holidays, school breaks, and festive seasons, make reservations months ahead as these resorts are often fully booked.
Water resorts charge per person, not per room. If you’re travelling on a budget, consider staying at a hotel in Semporna town instead.
