Spacious Overwater Rooms with Ocean Breezes
Sky Resort Timbun Mata & Reef features wooden over-the-water chalets connected by a walkway, built entirely on stilts above the sea. Rooms are nicely furnished with a touch of luxury and include air conditioning (A/C), en-suite bathrooms with bathtub and sea-facing balconies facing the majestic Bohey Dulang island in the distance and perfect for enjoying the sunrise or sunset. The experience of connecting to the seas by just sitting back and relaxing on your private balcony is truly and deeply relaxing.
Each chalet is built above the crystal-clear sandy shallows of the Celebes Sea. The peaceful setting offers direct access to snorkeling and unbeatable fun sliding on your own private toboggan and seawater swimming pool.
Snorkeling is Just Steps Away
You can enter the water directly from the platform or stair access at the end of your chalet. The surrounding reef flats are home to parrotfish, sea stars, and soft corals — perfect for a calm snorkel session before breakfast or sunset.
Great Base for Island-Hopping
Sky Resort Timbun Mata is well-positioned to explore the nearby islands, including Bohey Dulang, Mantabuan, and Sibuan. The resort team can help organize simple day trips so you can hike, snorkel, and return to a quiet night over the sea.
Connect with Mabul or Sipadan
