personally, i love to be in Semporna for its sea... other than that, nothing special in here, plus it bit smelly. the only fine place to stay here is Seafest Hotel, which located in front of the sea. It is very nice view and you are recommended to request a room which facing the sea. The last time i was here, there was no swimming pool.. for this time, i'm so excited as they just built it on the third floor.. Unfortunately, once i entered there this evening, i was greeted with a very unpleasant smell. The nearby fish market made it uncomfortable. Plus, you are not allowed to get into the pool with the T-shirt.. oh man, the bombastic rules made me extremely resentful.. Le Meredien & Hyatt are the most popular and stars hotel in town have no problem to let you jump into the pool with anything on your body.. huh! this maybe my last visit to Semporna.. Maybe!
