The Shangri La Rasa Ria

The Shangri La Rasa Ria welcomes you with a Red-Faces style gonging, lilting xylophone tunes and a glass of iced peach tea. Its check-in process is a sit-down-in-the-lobby's-cane-lounges type affair. Hours later, after you have swum in the pool, walked across its private white sandy beach, played petanque and table tennis and enjoyed one-too-many cocktails, it kisses you goodnight. (Reecey has fallen asleep with her reading light on, novel fallen to the floor).

Our pictures are below and there are some better ones here: http://www.shangri-la.com/en/property/kotakinabalu/rasariaresort. The heavens permitting, the gazebos below will transform into our bar and beach dance-floor, flanking the wedding reception tables and buffet, which will look out to the setting sun over the water.  Reecey is pleased that she will be able to choose (among other things) her flowers. I am pleased that we can get (literally) barrels of Tiger beer.

It's beautiful. Fancy joining us here in a year's time?
