TARP + Kinabalu + maybe Sepilok. KK between trips enough?

2 nights KK minimum — one TARP island day, one waterfront/rest day. Kinabalu needs separate 2D1N park stay, not KK commute. Sepilok/Sandakan separate leg. Don't treat KK as only base for all Sabah — fly between regions.

Waterfront hotel walkable — sunset every night between flights.

2 nights KK before Tawau flight — waterfront + one island day.

KK to Sepilok day trip once — never again, flew SDK next time.
