The Magellan Sutera Resort
Retreat to this tropical waterfront haven nestled along the sparkling South China Sea in Borneo’s Kota Kinabalu. Part of the Sutera Harbour Resort complex, The Magellan Sutera is set across 384 acres of lush greenery, where lagoon-style pools and a dazzling array of restaurants and bars promise barefoot sophistication and true Sabahan hospitality.
Spend sun-drenched afternoons relaxing by the beach or sipping cocktails by one of four mirage-like pools. Tee off at the Sutera Harbour Golf & Country Club, home to a 27-hole Graham Marsh-designed championship course offering unforgettable golf by the coast.
Located just a 10-minute drive from Kota Kinabalu city centre, The Magellan Sutera Resort offers effortless access to some of the island’s biggest attractions. Take a short 10-minute drive to Tanjung Aru Beach or board the North Borneo Railway at the resort and ride through the lush greenery, traditional villages and sprawling paddy fields of Sabah. The resort is located approximately a 10-minute drive from Kota Kinabalu International Airport (BKI). Airport transfers are included in your package, please contact the resort directly to arrange.
