Pangkor Laut is a privately owned island located three miles off the West Coast of Malaysia in the Straits of Malacca. Situated on this exotic island is the internationally acclaimed Pangkor Laut Resort. Although the island encompasses a total...
...of 300 acres, only a fraction has been developed to house the Resort and its Estates while the rest is covered by lush and unspoiled two million year old rainforest.
Pangkor Laut Resort, Pangkor Laut Island, Lumut, Perak 32200 /Malaysia
The Resort offers many fine dining opportunities, a wide range of facilities and activities, and has been widely praised for its attentive and gracious service. Voted the second best island destination in the world by Condé Nast Traveller (October 1999 issue), Pangkor Laut Resort consistently ranks high on the itinerary of international pleasure seekers.
Imagine being marooned on a 300 -acre tropical island of primeval flowers, waited on hand and foot, feasting as the mood takes you and residing in the luxury of air-conditioned comfort. It prompted Luciano Pavarotti to exclaim: "How beautiful God has made this paradise"! He was referring to Pangkor Laut Resort. Blending into this botanical wonderland, it is the only resort on the island. It imitates a traditional Malay village without sacrificing any of the luxuries today's sophisticated traveller expects. The spacious villas are set on stilts over the sea, from the beach and up the hillside amongst the trees. There are also purpose-built 'estates' with two, three or four bedroom villas, each with its own private secluded garden. The facilities are superb and exploit the island's natural beauty. There is a splendid choice of four delightful theme restaurants and three bars - decisions can be tough!
Accommodation Facilities : There are 148 Malaysian-style luxury villas in the main Pangkor Laut Resort and eight magnificent Estates in a nearby secluded cove. Every villa, suite and Estate is elegantly designed and furnished, yet complements and blends in with the surrounding natural environment. As the island is only accessible to the guests of the Resort and Estates, it makes the perfect private holiday getaway.
The main Resort offers guests a choice of three suites -»Suria« and »Purnama« Suite and the Pavarotti Suite
- and four different villa styles: Sea Villas, Beach Villas, Hill Villas and Garden Villas. Additionally there are the new SPA Villas.
The villas are all designed to accommodate two guests. Every villa and suite features spacious interiors, luxurious fabrics, and private balconies with cushioned deck chairs.
