Holiday houses in Sipadan Island

WOW - an amazing 5D/4N. 5 glorious days of relaxing: 2+h snorkeling trips every morning & even longer trips in the afternoons, fishing from the "flying banana", swimming with green turtles, evenings chilling on a private deck in the hammocks or ocean swing & just time to breathe & discover island life (outside of the westernised veneer of the resorts). It takes less than 30min to circumnavigate Mabul at a leisurely pace. We met Reed & Nor as hosts & guests but became friends. With no running hot water (that said the cold showers were refreshing & very welcome), no air con (in 39+ C but fans in our bedroom with a full opening wall to the deck provided more than adequate ventilation) & sporadic electricity it is not for everyone but adds to the authenticity of living on the island (& with power banks was no issue at all). Al (boat driver & turtle spotter 🐢 extrodinaire) & Ry (house helper) couldn't have been kinder when stepping up to run lodge unexpectedly. Amazing meals & perfect stay

Semplicemente un posto magnifico, waterhouse non lussuosa ma ben fatta e bene organizzata, buona la cucina e i servizi offerti, tutti molto gentili e disponibili.

nor and reed are super great hosts and they go above and beyond to make their guests happy. i would definitelly come back because of the island and because of them .. reed is a great cook and nor is just wonderfull to be around her. amazing place and amazing people .. real island experience snorkeling with al and reed. also the entire house, not only the bedroom and bathroom, is very clean. i felt like home, thanks guys! it was also nice to spend some time with both tiger the cat and gigi the dog, they keep great company :)

we had a great stay at the Airbnb from Reed and Nor. The kinda place where you feel at home. easily we could have stayed at a resort but we like to choose for something as an Airbnb for the personal contact and touch. This was 100% true here. We felt right at home. Reed and Nor made it very pleasant and personal...everything was discussed with us at fore hand. Snorkeling trips, food, moments of the day etc . Reed brought us to the nicest spots and was there to guide us. Besides that he and Nor served us delicious fresh food. Thanks guys, it had been a real pleasure. Next time when we come we will come with more members of the family.

很棒的房间，景色也非常棒，aini回应很及时，经常解答我们的问题。

性价比很高的民宿，马步岛上面应该算是非常好的位置了，海水清澈，水草比度假村的少观感极佳，背后就是原住民的村子，买东西很方便，潜水教练多，每天几班出海潜水的船，价格也很实惠，下午退潮后可以赶海，也有划船来卖海鲜椰子的原住民，但是需要砍价，客栈的餐饮味道不错，每天都会换花样，有时还有水果提供。缺点就是住宿环境比较一般，我们那个房间后面门是坏的，水槽下面没有管子，每天信号断断续续，有时还会停电，不过晚上空调还是挺稳定的。非常适合躺平，天气好就出去浮潜海钓深潜，考证也很方便。以后孩子大点了再来一次，希望这片海还能保持这么纯净吧。
