TANJONG JARA RESORT

Overview

Enveloped by palm groves and lush ferns refreshed by a natural stream, Tanjong Jara Resort boasts a remote location on Malaysia’s eastern coast. Influenced by the authentic architecture of 17th-century Malay palaces, this 5-star resort tucked within a quiet crescent cove has been granted the notable Aga Khan Award for Architecture. Within its 42 tropical acres, every single room has a view of the South China Sea or manicured gardens. Days can be spent snorkelling and diving the nearby Tenggol Island in season, known for its extraordinary corals, and frequent visits from sea turtles and black-tipped reef sharks, relaxing poolside or unwinding at the luxury award-winning spa. A daily schedule of activities from craft lessons to guided walks through the herb garden has something for everyone.

Dining

Dining at Tanjong Jara Resort celebrates coastal produce, Malay flavours and the beauty of its natural settings, from riverside breakfasts to beachfront seafood dinners.

Di Atas Sungei

Di Atas Sungei is Malay for ‘Above the River’ so guests will find it easy to spot this restaurant which literally sits above a river that flows into the South China Sea. The restaurant opens for breakfast and dinner, and serves authentic Malaysian cuisine.

Nelayan

Nelayan, meaning ‘Fisherman’ in the Malay language, was inspired by the locally and internationally acclaimed signature restaurant, Fisherman’s Cove. Nelayan offers a variety of Asian and Western selections for lunch while dinner features a unique symphony of seafood themed dishes which focuses on sustainable fishing practices and the freshest ingredients.

Teratai Terrace

Situated beside the resort’s free-form pool overlooking lush tropical foliage, Teratai serves healthy salads and local desserts for lunch, and come evening, a delectable choice of yakiniku or steamboat is available. A selection of wines and cocktails complement the dining experience.

SPA

Spa Village Tanjong Jara is a serene refuge rooted in the Malay wellness philosophy of Sucimurni, encouraging purity of spirit and natural restoration. Treatments use traditional ingredients and regional healing rituals, from floral baths to Malay massages. Guests also have access to two outdoor pools and a well-equipped gym, making the resort ideal for both rejuvenation and gentle activity.
