The location of Mount Kinabalu Holiday Home is situated almost at the boundary of Kinabalu National Park. This holiday home is not very far from the Timpohok Hut, which is the starting point for the climbers. About 260 degree of Mount Kinabalu holiday home is surrounded by green forest hills, and has Mt. Kinabalu as the back drop. The front part of the holiday home has a great view that looks out to the Kiau Valley, passing many rolling hills before reaching the horizon, which is the South China Sea. This place also offers great privacy, as it is hidden away from the public eyes. Only a small 300 metre road, which turn in and up over a small hill from the main road, will lead you to this quiet and serene holiday home. At times this place seems like paradise in a lost world.

Botanical Garden at the far end of the Lok Kawi Wildlife Park is an excellent place to have picnic, and spend a relaxed afternoon with friends. A short walk from the entrance of the Botanical Garden, after passing the Ginger garden, and the Nepenthes Garden, visitors will come to a small area that has six nicely built huts. Tall trees of various species, 30 to 50 feet high, surround these huts. These tall trees also help to filter out most of the sunlight, and only friendly light is allowed to come in, making the temperature at this area much to the delight of the park visitors. The sound from a small stream, with clean and clear water, can be heard running through the area which makes this place even more serene and peaceful. At times the scent or aroma of herbs and plants from the therapeutic garden can be smelt too.
