Shangri-La's Rasa Ria Resort & Spa - Kota Kinabalu, Sabah

-
Shangri-La's Rasa Ria Resort & Spa is approximately 1 hour 10 minutes drive from Kota Kinabalu International Airport. Majority of the hotel staff were very friendly, warm and courteous. We stayed two nights in a deluxe garden view comes with two single beds, study table, in-room safe, wall mounted TV with limited TV channels, in-room slippers, bathrobe, iron, ironing board, hairdryer, self controlled air conditioning, minibar with coffee & tea making facilities, complimentary drinking water and fruits, mini fridge, complimentary Wi-Fi and toiletries.

The room can accommodate up to 4 person and they actually turned the sofa into a bed for us as well. Spacious, comfortable and clean room with private balcony overlooking the garden. Bathroom comes with a bathtub. Water runs hot even after a long shower with moderate water pressure. In-room safe was not working when we were trying to use it at night. Glad that it was fixed immediately after we made a phone call to the maintenance department.

Overall it was a relaxing and pleasant stay but room rate was a bit expensive from my point of view. This room rate was based on non peak season and during peak season it can go up to RM 1K per night. 

(Room rate: RM 640 per night including breakfast for 2 person)

Jollibee is a Filipino multinational chain of fast food restaurants. On the day of arrival, we asked our friendly Grab driver what is the must-try food in Philippines and he mentioned Jollibee. So here we at Jollibee located inside Landmark Department Store just 4 minutes (250m) walking distance from  New World Makati Hotel . We ordered 2 pieces of chicken served with rice and drink. Rice is soft. Fried chicken is crispy, flavourful and tender. It comes together with a brown gravy which taste like KFC mashed potatoes gravy. Overall it's good.
