My family had a very comfortable stay. They loved the place. The house is as per the picture. Thankfully the owner provided us with a video direction to the guesthouse as the Google maps is not accurate.

A fully furnished and squeaky clean apartment that has some of the best amenities I have ever seen in a serviced apartment. Absolutely loved our stay here and wished it were longer. Close to the airport, and there are plenty of restaurants within walking distance.

Spacious and peaceful. Backdrop was very beautiful. Waterfall at the back of the property was worth the walk. Well kept grounds with beautiful hydrangeas. Easy to communicate with host and grounds keepers were all lovely and helpful even though English was not their first language.

The room was spacious, and had a welcoming feel. I stayed in room 3, it had big windows making the room feel more spacious. The air-conditioning works well. Got the whole kitchen at our disposal too. Worth the stay imo. The host is really helpful with the checking in process.

Great location and super comfy, I felt safe and at home. Semporna isn’t the most charming of towns, but Amazing Rooms played a big part in making my visit to Semporna amazing! I hope to be back.

Charming and well equipped. Well operated and good communication with the owners. Good view of the road leading to Mesilou and well enough away from Kundasang town to be quiet. Good experience having hot coffee at the balcony watching the sun rise over the mountain range.

VIRTA Guesthouse is great if you prefer the comfort of having your own place while visiting Sandakan. We enjoyed all the space we had and the cozy/functional outside area where we were able to cook some meals. Places like the Orangutan Sanctuary and Rainforest Discovery Center are about a 20 minute drive from the house. It is pretty easy & affordable to use Grab (Malaysia's Uber) to get back and forth, though having a car would be more comfortable. The host is also very responsive and friendly.
