I have visited Kasih Sayang Health Resort for countless of times. I am not associated with the resort. I am simply in love with the environment and the vibe of the resort. I love to spend whole day at the restaurant deck, overseeing KK city at one side and the peak of Mount Kota Kinabalu on the other. It only takes approximately 40mins drive to get there. A great hide-out to escape the heat at some days.
