If you are in Kota looking for a beach club, Breeze may pop up on your list. If you want my TLDR - it’s not actually a beach club, simply a hotel pool bar. It’s not a bad establishment per se, but google maps may mislead you.
It’s obvious from the map that this place is part of a hotel. No big deal, many beach clubs are. However it isn’t really setup to cater to non hotel guests. Staff may be a bit clueless when you ask - is the pool and beach club open to non hotel guests? I asked at the front and was told it was. However you can’t use the pool (ok with me, I just want to read a book and drink beer 🤣). Nor is your chair entitled to a towel so bring your own (if that’s allowed).
Overall I can’t fault the staff. Who I can fault is owenership of the property who is trying to market Breeze as a standalone beach club with separate google listing. It’s a hotel pool, why advertise it as separate unless it’s an establishment that truly stands on its own? I’ve been to many beach clubs attached to hotels, this one just isn’t really a beach club.
Edit. Don’t bother ordering mixed drinks, really not good at all.

A Kota Kinabalu hotel pool bar that is listed like a beach club but did not really function like one for non-hotel guests.
