Description
Want to snap a photo with the sea and Mount Kinabalu in the background? How about stargazing under a brilliant night sky? Then...
Welcome to Sutera@Mantanani Island Resort!
Sutera@Mantanani Island Resort is a luxurious getaway located on the stunning Mantanani Island in Sabah, which is made up of three islands: Big Mantanani Island, Little Mantanani Island, and Longisan Island. This remote island paradise boasts 2,500 meters of pristine beaches, crystal-clear waters, and vibrant coral reefs, with visibility often maintained between 20 to 40 meters. However, this can vary depending on the weather and sea conditions. Legend has it that two dugongs (manatees) were once seen near the island, resembling mermaids, hence Mantanani Island is also known as Mermaid Island.
It’s the perfect escape for travellers looking to unwind and experience ultimate relaxation away from the hustle and bustle of city life.
