PANGKOR Laut Resort is an exclusive luxury resort situated on a privately owned island off the west coast of Malaysia.
It offers secluded bays and beaches housing 142 luxury villas and suites and the award winning Spa Village Pangkor Laut. A fraction of the island’s 300 acres have been developed, leaving most of its two million year old rainforest untouched and Emerald Bay, the resort’s private beach, has often been cited by independent travel consultants as one of the most beautiful beaches in the world. The resort has received numerous international accolades including ‘Number One in the World’ and ‘Best Overseas Destination Spa’ by Condé Nast Traveller, UK. Pangkor Laut Resort is part of YTL Luxury Resorts.
The Estates of Pangkor Laut, Marina Bay, Malaysia provide seclusion and exceptional service, giving guests the opportunity to have complete privacy and anonymity. These are designed to cater for each individual’s needs, making guests’ stay at the villas as exclusive and personal as possible.
The eight estates, situated in a nearby cove of Pangkor Laut are only accessible to guests by private vehicle. The villas rest on either the waterfront of Marina Bay, allowing visitors the extravagance of a private beach or designed to sit hidden in the jungle on the hillside - offering ocean views along with seclusion.
Each estate is provided with two individual staff members to cater all specific needs quietly and unobtrusively.
The villas bathrooms and vanity areas are spacious and light with fine attention to detail.
In case guests feel the need to get out and about, YTL’s Pangkor Laut resort facilities are also open offering the multi award winning Spa Village, swimming pools, tennis and squash courts, fully equipped gym, water sports, jungle walking, offshore water excursions and more.
