A Hidden Overwater Gem in Paradise

The resort features individual overwater chalets with beautiful traditional style roofs. Crystal Resort has carved a name for itself among travellers who crave an authentic seaside escape while still being accessible with a mid-range budget.


A Simple Slice of Overwater Bliss
Island Hopping, Snorkeling, and Sea Village Encounters
We can also organize full-day island-hopping tours at very reasonable rates with a speedboat that will pick you up right at the resort. One of the most memorable mornings that you might get here will begin with a hike up Bohey Dulang's volcanic ridge—mist lifting off the jungle (700m high), the ocean scattered with emerald islets—and ended snorkeling with schools of reef fish near Mantabuan.


Meals with a View
Breakfast, lunch and dinner are simple, but you will enjoy the sea breezes and spectacular sea views from the wooden deck.
Who Is Crystal Resort For?
Crystal Resort Semporna is ideal for couples who are looking for a romantic vacation combining a spectacular location with value, and the uncomplicated beauty of just staying right above the sea. While it may lack some of the polish of some of its higher-end neighbors in Mabul and Kapalai, it makes up for it with lower costs and a feeling of seascape freedom.
Pack light. Bring reef-safe sunscreen and let this medium-range overwater gem surprise you.
