Tajau Laut Guesthouse

Kudat

The homestay features some units that have sea views, and every unit is equipped with a private bathroom with a bath. At the homestay, every unit has bed linen and towels.

Sightseeing tours are available around the property. The homestay has a picnic area and a barbecue. It doesn't get any more perfect to stay right on this heavenly beach, listening to the sound of the waves, with the coral reef swimming distance away. We went snorkeling twice, once on the boat, and once right from shore and both were magical experiences. Plus, whoever is the cook there is fantastic!! Their fresh seafood is out of this world, one night I even had squid cooked in its own ink, which I normally would be scared to try, but it was so delicious it blew my mind! And they know how to make doughnuts which they serve for breakfast... This is truly as idyllic as it gets!!

This property offers access to a patio, free private parking and free WiFi. The guest house has family rooms. The host is just from another world. I arrived late (around 22h30) and even though he likes to wake up at 4h30, we kept talking for about half an hour. Then, he goes: "do you want me to show you around?" >> he went on giving me a guided kuching tour in his car. He even wanted to buy me a drink but no shops were open at midnight. Besides this, he would leave traditional sweets for breakfast every day. Legend!!
