A Slice of Paradise : Danglai Resort Semporna

#indonesiatrip Danglai Resort is a hidden gem in the middle of the sea in Semporna. This premium resort exceeded my expectations with its private pool and balcony stairs leading directly to the sea. The sunset views were breathtaking, and the private net balcony was perfect for relaxation. The resort's romantic atmosphere made it ideal for our honeymoon, and it's also suitable for group trips. The food was exceptional, with a wide range of delicious options. What truly impressed me was the inclusive package, covering island hopping, airport transport, boat transfers, and even a lunchbox and tour guide when we are out. If you're seeking a Maldives-like experience without the hefty price tag, Danglai Resort is the perfect choice.

Beautiful Semporna~

Beautiful Semporna~

Because it's so beautiful here! The live photos are full of life. I saw the jelly sea and went snorkeling 🤿 to get up close and personal with the swaying corals 🪸 and the little fish 🐠 swimming around. Wish list get ✔️ Tips: Share the island hopping route 1. Timba Timba Island - Mataking Island - Pom Pom Island Line Depart for Jambangan Island in the morning, where you can browse the island's scenery, play on the tail beach, and take photos on the island's popular glass boat. Then head to the waters near Timba Timba for the first snorkeling, where the underwater corals are well protected and the water visibility is high. Then go to the waters near Mataking Island for the second snorkeling. Go to Mataking Island for lunch at noon. The exclusive Mataking Music Beach offers a different kind of feeling. In the afternoon, go to Pom Pom Island or Pandan South Sea for the third snorkeling. 2. Tun Sakaran Marine Park Line Depart from the pier in the morning for a 40-minute boat ride to Pearl Island, where you can climb to the top of Pearl Island (Sleeping Beauty Island) to see the whole view of Tun Sakaran Marine Park. You need to wear sneakers to climb the mountain, and if you are not prepared, you can rent climbing shoes at the bottom of the mountain. Go to Mandab Bay for lunch at noon. In the afternoon, go to Mandabuan Island, where you can see many small fish swimming in the coral reefs for snorkeling/diving, and if there is no tidal effect, you can also go to the island for photos and a walk around the island. Then go to Battleship Island, where the water is clear and there is a long tail beach that is perfect for photos. The water is clear and there are few corals underwater, so you can start snorkeling. 3. Mabul Island - Kapalai Line Depart for Mabul Island in the morning to check in at the popular water house in Semporna, and arrive at Mabul Island to land at Mabul Island Resort (MWB) for 1-1.5 hours to visit and take photos. The water house here has become a popular island check-in spot on INS because of its unique architectural features, and you can take a picture without P-pictures. Have lunch on Mabul Island at noon, and after lunch, take a break and get ready to go out to sea for the first snorkeling. In the afternoon, go to the waters of Kapalai (Kapalai is a private island and does not land on the island) for the second snorkeling, and the snorkeling point will be chosen around the resort, where you can enjoy the beautiful sea water and the romantic atmosphere of the resort.

A beautiful getaway

It is located about 15 minutes by boat from the famous diving destination of Sipadan Island. This resort is a popular choice for wedding photography and honeymoon trips. Additionally, the resort is known as the birthplace of Miss Scuba International, an initiative aimed at raising awareness about environmental issues related to ocean health. Visitors can also see local sea gypsies selling their catch of the day. The island does attract quite a few Chinese tourists. All in all, a decent stay but nothing extraordinary. #kapalai#semporna #beachlife

Semporna, a dynamic town driven by tourism

I arrived at Semporna by bus from Lahad Datu and stayed there for 3 days while getting info about the driving paradises of Mabul and Sipadan. The city is very contrast. You have fishing and local villages coexisting with the businesses catering to tourism and diving. For sure, Semporna is the land base for exploring Sipadan and other islands off the coast, but the city itself has a something to offer while preparing yourself for the action or while waiting for dissolved nitrogen to release from your body. Price is quite inflated here but still within reasonable range. Apart from the waterfront, you can visit the floating village. I suggest you get help from a local in visiting there so as you understand it better and do it with respect. #semporna #gatewaytosipadan
