If you’ve ever wondered how the wealthy and sophisticated spend a day in Sabah, here’s your answer: they do it on a private yacht, gliding across the South China Sea with chilled cocktails, cinematic sunsets, and an entire marine park at their feet.
Amazing Love, a 48-foot Aquila Power Catamaran by Sutera Sanctuary Lodges, is not just any yacht. Being on it feels like you’re on a floating private villa, complete with four ensuite cabins, queen beds, plush lounges, and a crew of five to cater to every whim and detail. If you’re planning an intimate celebration, a milestone moment, or simply treating yourself to a day of elevated living, this is as exclusive as Kota Kinabalu gets.
Step aboard your private floating sanctuary
The moment you step onto Amazing Love, the tone shifts from “holiday” to “private escape”. At 48 feet long with a generous 23-foot beam, the Amazing Love is built for comfort—wide walkways, open spaces, and plenty of room to roam. By day, she accommodates up to 20 guests; by night, she transforms into an intimate retreat for up to six.
Create your perfect day on the water
Amazing Love isn’t a one-size-fits-all experience—it’s curated, crafted, and entirely centred around you.
For romantics: Plan a private dinner under starry skies, or turn a proposal into something cinematic with champagne, music, and your own corner of the sea.
For unforgettable milestones: From intimate weddings to anniversaries and vow renewals, the yacht becomes a stunning backdrop—sunset glow included.
For celebrations with flair: Hosting a birthday, achievement, or gathering with friends? A Kota Kinabalu sunset dinner cruise is perfect. Settle into plush seating, sip cocktails, and let the coastline roll by.
For corporate teams who’ve earned a reward: Swap meeting rooms for open decks. A charter feels exclusive, refreshing, and far more motivating than another buffet lunch.
Cruise into golden hour
Amazing Love’s signature experience is the Sunset Cruise. Beloved for a good reason, it’s relaxed, romantic, and wrapped in natural beauty.
If you’re staying on Manukan Island with Sutera Sanctuary Lodges, a complimentary boat transfer will take you straight to Sutera Harbour Marina for boarding—seamless luxury from island villa to yacht deck.
Here’s how a typical evening on the cruise would unfold:
4.45pm Step onto the yacht and receive a welcome cocktail as you watch the day begin to soften.
5pm Sail along Kota Kinabalu’s coastline as the sky starts its evening performance.
6pm Watch the sun drop below the horizon: uninterrupted views, soft sea breeze, and the kind of golden hour photographers dream of.
8pm Cruise around Tunku Abdul Rahman Marine Park under the night sky.
8.15pm Return to Sutera Harbour Marina, refreshed and relaxed.
