Reasons to visit Miri Marriott Resort & Spa: great location as a stopover to the Mulu caves or for business travel to Miri; largest free-form pool in Sarawak; serene sea views; spectacular sunsets.
Reasons to stay at Cove 55: beautiful location; only 30-minutes from Kuching airport; clean, crisp design; warm hospitable service; not only ideal for a peaceful getaway but would also make a fantastic location for organized retreats; close to wondrous sites such as Bako National Park.
I was sharing my room with a blogger friend, Emily… Our room was spacious.. With two somewhat old but still comfortable twin beds, LCD TV with movie channels, coffee and tea making facilities, mini fridge, IDD telephone and hair dryer…
Overall, The Culvert Resort at Santubong warrants a night stay for a short escapade. Any stay stretch beyond 2 days 1 night will be deemed luxury and boring, unless you have other plans to explore around Santubong such as Sarawak Cultural Village, or even a hiking adventure to Mount Santubong.
Reasons to visit Mulu Marriott Resort & Spa: stunning jungle location; only five minutes from the airport and also minutes to the entrance of Gunung Mulu National Park; the only five-star hotel in Mulu; friendly service team.
Let's have a look at the resort room first. It features classic woody and simple design, no television, poor Wi-Fi connectivity (you may have to purchase the access) and no air-conditioner. Fret not, as the weather here is chilling and the ceiling fan can do most of the cooling job.
