OPINE.VILLAS

The hotel's primary focus on Chinese guests is evident in its services and amenities, which are predominantly in Chinese. This should be clearly stated in the hotel description on the booking websites. The villa itself is well-maintained, spacious, and equipped with everything you need. The beds and linens are of good quality, the toiletries are nice, and the bathroom is modern and clean. The air conditioner is quiet, but the external unit is quite noisy. The exterior and garden are lovely and clean. The breakfast buffet was subpar, with cold food and coffee that required guests to microwave (completely in Chinese) it themselves, which was also a major inconvenience. Yet, the variety and quality of food was good and tasty. The staff seemed indifferent to the lack of coffee and food, and the lady who came to "check" on us only brought coffee when we asked. Overall, our stay was satisfactory, but this place definitely needs to improve its hospitality and guest service. Given the above this place is too overpriced.

Beautiful, comfortable and clean villa’s and very helpful staff but nothing to do on site. Pool was empty. We only stayed one night to transfer to Mabul island. Other guests are mostly Chinese. We were offered an up and downtown transfer to Semporna around dinner time which was very nice.

We chose Opine Villas as we wanted a more spacious place for our three nights at Semporna. We wanted to ensure we got well-rested before each coming day that was full of activities. We’re glad the villas were beautifully maintained and our every need was attended to. Highly recommended for couples and families!
