Discover how Malay kings once crafted their palaces. Fronted by an emerald sea glittering with diamonds of light, shaded by tall palms rustling in the breeze and attended to by people steeped in traditions as timeless as the land. Tanjong Jara Resort offers an authentic taste of the region’s spirit and is an enduring embodiment of the gentle Malay art of service and hospitality. Based on the Malay concept of Sucimurni, which is a way of life that emphasises purity of spirit, health and well-being, Tanjong Jara is the perfect retreat to refresh both body and soul.

Located on the East Coast of Peninsular Malaysia, Tanjong Jara Resort is a sanctuary of luxury and well-being steeped in age-old Malay traditions. Authentic in architecture and attitude, always warm and welcoming, this idyllic retreat allows one to let go, relax and rejuvenate.

Evenings garlanded by the perfume of lush gardens, lulled by the soft sighs of gentle waves, enchanted by the intoxicating glow of a midnight moon. Discover the sublime sleep of kings in one of the exclusive 98 rooms or the sumptuously-appointed Anjung Suite that rests above river waters looking out into the South China Sea.

The award-winning Spa Village, dedicated to combining the therapeutic properties of natural local ingredients and the innate healing practices of the area passed down over generations, provides a special, restorative experience.

Explore teeming coral reefs, experience an eco-adventure river cruise, learn creative local culinary arts or discover the natural charms of sleepy fishing villages.

Dining at Tanjong Jara is an exotic culinary adventure that ranges from traditional Malaysian cuisine to exquisite Western fusion. The beautiful natural setting of each dining venue vies with the mouthwatering dishes that they offer; whether gazing out to sea at Nelayan, under the shade of rustling palms at Teratai Terrace or over the meandering river at Di Atas Sungei. Or for something a little more personalised, simply choose one of the private dining experiences set in a variety of stunning locations.

Tanjong Jara Resort is a 90-minute flight or 5-hour private car journey from the Malaysian capital of Kuala Lumpur.
