What our guests says about facilities

The hotel offers amenities for your comfortable stay and unforgettable experiences

Kid-Friendly Paradise

During my recent stay, I was thrilled with the children's amenities at Shangri-La Tanjung Aru. My son had a blast going from the pool to the beach repeatedly and indulging in tasty ice cream cones. The kids' club offered engaging activities, like the Easter egg hunt, that really made his experience nice.
