“View of the room is nice but foods are really bad.”

The staffs are friendly. Helen is very helpful. The room has nice seaview. We have seen the turtles passing by many times.

“Amazing views, friendly staff, little slice of paradise!”

Very friendly staff, fresh seafood for dinner (caught that day!). Stunning views from the room, great diving. The instructor was so patient and took amazing underwater videos with his GoPro! Very sad to be leaving here.

“Great place and great people”

Researched a bunch of places on Mabul, didnt want to do an expensive resort but also didnt want to do a hostel type (which also seem to be marketed as hotels or resorts...). Aloha was the perfect mid range. Rooms great, basic but with everything you need, aircon, nice beds, very clean and location right over the water. I could watch the turtles from the balcony of my room. Well organized, did 2 days AOW with the Aloha team then they arranged 2 days to Sipaden. The latter amazing but I was super impressed with Mabul sites as well. The main Dive instructure, Phin, has worked on the island for 20 years and knows his stuff, he was very professional and helpful with the course. Helen runs front desk and has been amazing arranging everything. Food good but you can also supplement with fresh seafood that you can buy straight from people canoeing around, the kitchen will cook it for you. There were some large groups in and they had tables full or lobster, crab, prawn, fish etc. I had a lobster and it was delicious. Would throughly recommend this place and will come again

“Keep going”

Able to see sea turtle at night

“Fun staff, fun facilities!”

The staff were fantastic, all very good divers and also very good entertainers :).

“Amazing staff and lovely place where to meet you new and interesting people, we did have a wonderful time there!”

Staff, location

Staff was very friendly and accommodating. Location good. Rooms clean and airy. I had the front room with balcony and I was able to watch the Sealife passing by in the evening as they have lights to illuminate the water. Would go there again.

Beautiful waterfront location. Helen and the team were very helpful and welcoming. A highlight was being able to buy fresh seafood directly from local fishermen and have it cooked on-site for a small fee

The staff was nice and friendly. You can see turtles at night in front of the hotel.

“Memorable seafront ocean stay - snorkelling, diving”

The Double with Seaview is properly the best for privacy and separation from the main decks. The people - Tone, Helene, Joy, June and Ping. Amazing good people who made the trip more personal. Thank you, I will always remember you. Lots of turtles around lodge at night. Broken shower water heater was replaced quick smart when issue was encountered. Three meals a day included - Malaysian style home cooking, plus they are open to cook catch from passing fishermen who visit - for a fee. Healthy snorkelling coral sites with lots of fish and turtles.

“Great place to see with opportunities to see turtles at night!”

From the start Tone the owner was excellent with us and did whatever he could to make our stay truly special. We had a great time here, the views are spectacular see so many turtles at night! Jun Sheng was an excellent dive master and had some incredible dives out there. He was also accompanied by Jepp who was very helpful and really helped my wife feel at ease when snorkelling. We had a great laugh with these two! Food is good but it’s repetitive, they say it’s all inclusive but you don’t really have a choice you just turn up to a few dishes. No snacks provided. Food was flavourful and fruit was fresh but no variety so would say this can definitely be improved. Note soft drinks are not included and this isn’t mentioned anywhere! Communication also needs to be improved. Sometimes miscommunication or no info between staff and management. No communication regarding housekeeping! No communication regarding return transfers management says one thing and then you hear something else from on the ground staff. It all got sorted eventually but these little things can turn this place into an excellent place to stay. Overall a good place to stay with opportunities to see incredible turtles at night right from your room 🤩
