Review Body: We had the absolute pleasure of spending a day on the private yacht Mawali with Captain Brendan and deckhand Jackie during our honeymoon, and it was nothing short of perfect. From the moment we stepped on board, they made us feel so welcome and completely at ease. The experience was incredible — we went snorkelling, relaxed on a beautiful local beach, enjoyed fantastic food and drinks, and even discovered the most breathtaking spot to watch the sunset. Every detail was thoughtfully looked after, and it truly felt like a day designed just for us. Brendan and Jackie were amazing hosts — professional, friendly, and so attentive — they couldn’t have done more to make the day special. It was without doubt one of the highlights of our honeymoon, and we’ll never forget it. We can’t recommend Mawali highly enough. If you’re looking for a truly memorable experience on the water, this is it.

Review Body: We booked Mawali for a snorkelling trip and then again for a sunset cruise (with snorkelling) for our last night. The Captain (Joel) and crew (Brendan & Zatrina) were really thorough with all our requests and went over and above for us. Our first snorkelling experience was great fun and we enjoyed the peace of the sails on the way back after a delicious lunch. For our last night in KK we went snorkelling off Gaya Island and then enjoyed a sunset cruise and dinner. We all felt the magic of the sunset that evening and how special it was to be in such a beautiful place with close friends. We capped off the night with Brendan showing us some solid dance moves under the moonlight. He is now a Swiftie ❤️ This was truly a special way to end our holiday and the crew felt like old friends. We can’t wait to return …practice your dancing Brendan!

Review Body: 哥打京那巴鲁一向以迷人的日落闻名。所以，当我们有机会在海上的游艇上看日落时，真的可以说那是一段很梦幻的体验。 更加分的是船上的团队非常出色，让整个行程都很舒适。Joel 船长和团队都很专业，也很周到。他们还为我们准备了小点和饮品，让我们可以毫无负担地享受航行的过程。 我们还体验了立式桨板，很有意思，也近距离看到了美丽的佳雅岛。 如果你喜欢日落和大海，这个体验很值得一试。

Review Body: We wanted to end our holiday in Kota Kinabalu on a high, and Mawali Sailing manages to do that. Joval was patient in handling our inquiries and gave us the confidence to booking the private charter with them. The service was excellent. We were picked up on time. The crew and Captain weee very friendly. Captain was also very attentive and customized our itinerary. The fees included the non-alcoholic beverages on board. Beer and wine were extra but were very reasonably priced. The boat was clean and very well maintained. The sunset BBQ surpassed our expectations with the yummy food. Thank you Mawali. Hope to sail with you again!

Review Body: 为了看日落，我们参加了 Mawali 的帆船体验，结果它成了整趟旅程里最宁静的一段时光。太阳慢慢落下时，我们还玩了桨板，整个感觉真的很私密、很安静——周围除了我们，几乎一艘别的船都没有。 我们一上船，船长和船员就特别热情亲切，也让整个体验更显特别、更让人放松。全程一点都不拥挤，也没有游客扎堆的感觉，只有平静、亲密，还有让人很难忘的氛围。如果你想找一种更安静、也更特别的体验，真的很推荐。

Review Body: It was a wonderful experience to cruise on a private yacht, the crews Joel and Brandon are very professional and friendly. You will get a fantastic and relax view when lying on the net at the front deck of the yacht. We are lucky that the weather is good and can see a beautiful sunset. If there is a stronger wind then it will be perfect to sail on the yacht, but with the stable cruise speed, we enjoy so much on the yacht. Highly recommended for a small group of people up to 12 persons to join this special sunset cruise, you will never regret and have a sweet memory.

Review Body: Great experience we had on the 4th of July 2025 with the Mawali catamaran and crew. Snorkeled around Sapi island, went over to Sapi island itself after that for a quick Island Hunt. The crew were professional, insightful and had deep passion for what they did. They were very committed, catering to everyone one of our trivial needs and request. Highly recommended Kudos to Noel, Janice, Brandon & Cathrine in managing and exceeding our expectations. Ps. Thanks for nurturing Sapi back to where she is now.

Review Body: We had a really nice day on the catamaran. There was a good atmosphere on board and the service was top notch. We had more than an hour to snorkel and paddle board in the beautiful water, where we were the only boat. The sea was clear and we saw many beautiful fish, including clownfish. Lunch was served on the deck, where my family and I sat and enjoyed life. This trip is recommended if you are tired of mass tourism and although it costs a lot of money, it is worth it👍

Wonderful experience onboard by none other than the professional and friendly father and son combo - Captain Jerry & second-in-command Joel will definitely leave you awe-inspiring and wanting for a second trip. Cheers and kudos to you Joel and your dad Jerry!

Review Body: 大家常说沙巴拥有世界上一些最美的风景，这话一点不假。我们去了一座小岛浮潜、玩桨板，最后在一天结束时看到了最美的日落。看着海面尽头的夕阳缓缓落下，真的是一次非常难忘的体验。因为岛上只有我们，感觉就像拥有了一座私人的小岛。那里的风景和日落都美得像梦一样。

Review Body: Absolutely 5-star. A great morning out on the Mawali yacht for our family. Beautiful vessel, with lots of space to chill and relax on board. Lots of fun snorkelling, paddle boarding and jumping into the ocean from the boat. Joel and the crew were brilliant and great with our 7 year old son. Lunch was delicious! Booking process, payments and all communications so easy as well.

From start to finish they made us feel like family, very competent boat handling, great history sharing and tailored the morning exactly to our needs. The lunch was fresh, simple and delicious and there was plenty to go around. We will definitely be back again! Great value for money.

Review Body: The best morning in Kota Kinabalu. Carlos (Captain) and the rest of the crew took care of us very well. We enjoy very much the snorkelling and the time in one of the wonderful Mawali vessels. Carlos, thank you for your songs and conversation. Jerry did a good job as well. Highly recommend. Worth each ringgit we spent.
