Langkah Syabas Beach Resort, Kinarut

This is what Langkah Syabas looks like from the front
A view of the garden and pool where we'd our horse ride

Great food at the beach resort restaurant - yummy


CARMEN: From Seaside Travellers Inn, we visited its neighbour, the Langkah Syabas Beach Resort. The beach resort is a good place to get away from city life. It is run by an Australian and as it is just besides the sea, you can go swimming all day if you want to. There's also a pool there if you don't like the sand. Their rooms are cosy too. Feels just like a beach vacation. Also, it has lots of greens around its garden. You can also do Horse Riding at Langkah Syabas Beach Resort. We had so much fun last time.

TESSY: Carmen, you sounded like..., like..., Samantha Brown from Discovery Travel Channel, you know?

CARMEN: Thank you Tessy. Just practising :)

TESSY: The food at Langkah Syabas was great too. I like their..., their..., Mount Kinabalu ice cream.

CARMEN: You can visit dad's travel blog at to get more information on Langkah Syabas Beach Resort and also some more photos.

TESSY: Yeah..., our pic also there. Great, eh Carmen?

CARMEN: Yupp. It was so cool...

CARMEN: Early this month, we followed dad to visit Seaside Travellers Inn at Kinarut, about 45 mins drive from Kota Kinabalu I think. It is part of his "work" to get some shots of the Inn for his website and blog. Seaside Travellers Inn is a wonderful place to stay if you want some peace and quiet away from the busy city life.

TESSY: We were his..., his..., assistants that day. I enjoyed it cause we also dropped by..., dropped by..., at Langkah Syabas Beach Resort, just next door to Seaside Travellers Inn. We ate at both places. Yummy.

CARMEN: We only ate at Langkah Syabas Beach Resort, Tessy. You wanted to eat again at Seaside Travellers Inn but was too full. Remember?

TESSY: Oh..., forgot. I only had a drink.

CARMEN: And some mosquitoes bites?

TESSY: Yupp. It was getting dark, and a lot of..., a lot of..., bad mosquitoes came out.

CARMEN: Yes..., it's by the seaside, so during sunset which was so beautiful, better put on some long pants. And if you want to know more about Seaside Travellers Inn and more pics, just visit dad's travel blog.

TESSY: Just take a look at..., look at..., some of our photos above, ok? We will post..., will post..., Langkah Syabas Resort later, ok? Have to play GameBoy. Dad just bought us..., bought us..., a new game, 190-in-1, Hillary Duff 2, Barbie, and more wow...

CARMEN: Bye for now. Hope you like the photos. Hey Tessy..., Isn't it my turn to play?

TESSY: Hemmm, ok, here you are Carmen.

CARMEN: Thanks Tessy. You are the bestest of best sister I ever have. Love ya.

TESSY: Carmen..., dad gave his old handphone to both of us.

CARMEN: Yeah right..., that's why it is old?

TESSY: At least..., at least..., we have one. It's for emergency call only, Carmen.

CARMEN: Ok then..., but mom said she will give hers to me soon.

TESSY: In a few more months?

CARMEN: What? School will start then. I better have a word to her again.

TESSY: Anyway, I just love..., just love..., dad's Nokia handphone. It's great...
