Reports from a sailor who visited in September 2022 advise that this is not really the place do boat projects as it is quite isolated with limited shopping and stores nearby.

    Posted on behalf of SY Yindee Plus who visited this marina December 2014:
    The marina is definitely open. They respond to email and phone calls but the VHF channel (71) had constant local chatter on it when we tried to use it.
    It is inexpensive; we paid 45RM a day for our 43′ mono.

    The shoreside facilities have changed a lot since the last comments were made. There are now beautiful new showers (hot and cold with good water pressure) and toilets, plus saunas and gym. The lovely main swimming pool has been renovated and is now open, although the kid’s pool, with slide, is closed. There is a cafe/bar for the yachties which serves a lunchtime special for 15RM.

    The decking on the shoreside area has all been replaced with new timbers, lighting etc and the gardens fronting the resort have all been replanted.

    The marina has not yet had any money spent on it but apparently, renovation/replacement of pontoons is planned. The pontoons do look very tired but the dilapidation is cosmetic; the underlying structure looks perfectly sound and we didn’t have any concerns about the safety of the boat.

    There is water and working electricity on the pontoons, although some creative adaptations to your connectors may be necessary. There are also rubbish bins (with secure lids) and some fire-fighting / life-saving equipment too. The wooden decking has holes in it and plenty of other rotten boards too. There is no lighting on the pontoons at night so you do need to take care where you put your feet in the dark.

    This is a very remote, but beautiful, location. There is no ATM or shop and the local town, a taxi/shuttle away, only has limited provisions. If you have already provisioned the boat and are looking for somewhere to relax, it would be ideal.

    In its present state, it would also be a good place to work on boat projects: the pontoons are wide and the furthest out ones are a long way from the resort (not currently open to guests) so your disruption in terms of noise and dirt wouldn’t matter too much. There are a handful of cruising boats here, some small motor boats and the inevitable wrecks that worn out marinas always seem to have.

    A luxury housing complex is being built behind the resort, with the intention of selling to Singaporeans. They will not be able to do that without a ferry link and we have heard talk about them reinstating it. That would probably be the key the marina’s success in the future.

    Sebanna has become bankrupt several times since its original construction late 80`s early 90`s. It’s unlikely to recover due to its remoteness and reduced popularity of the golf course.

    Posted on behalf of SY Si Hai:

    We are now in Sebana. Here there are many changes. Presently the main building is under major repairs. The restaurant, lobby, toilets and showers have all but been demolished. Pontoon hose showers are the only option right now. The timber walkways and pontoons are quite bad now.

    There is a suggestion that all this is going to be rebuilt at some stage. Three people are presently living aboard in the whole marina, and that includes us two. That will give you an idea of how quiet it is. Still, it’s pleasantly tranquil at night, but the jackhammers somewhat spoil the day and scare the Hornbills and monkeys away.
