Tanjong Jara Resort
A relaxing reboot for the body and mind
In a striking location on Malaysia’s east coast is a unique resort focused on wellbeing and relaxation.
Anchored in age-old Malay traditions, Tanjong Jara is a luxurious escape from city life. Glistening pools and a spa focused on restorative treatments provide peace and privacy whilst signature experiences allow you to explore your spellbinding east-coast location. Malay cuisine is offered in dreamy settings above the river, overlooking the South China Sea and on the tropical poolside terrace.
Why we love Tanjong Jara Resort
-
The romance and drama of a moonlit private dinner on the rocks.
-
The knot-banishing warrior massage at the Spa Village.
-
Pick up secret recipes from a Malay kitchen with an authentic cooking class.
-
This is the perfect retreat to combine with a Kuala Lumpur holiday.
Rooms
The Asian-style décor throughout the resort is also reflected in each of the 100 rooms. The Bumbung Rooms and Serambi Rooms both overlook the tropical gardens; the latter also has a spacious terrace, or you can upgrade to a Seaview Room for gorgeous ocean views. The Anjung Rooms are ideal if you’d like some extra space, and these luxurious semi-detached cottages all face the beach.

The award-winning Spa Village Tanjong Jara is an oasis of tranquillity. The therapies are based on the Malay philosophy of Sucimurni - to relax the soul and improve wellbeing.
The spa is set around peaceful lotus ponds and gardens and treatments are based on authentic Malay traditions. These include heated sea sand therapies, warrior massages and wild ginger facials.
Cycle to a local fishing village*, take part in a cookery lesson*, go jungle trekking to Chemerung Waterfall* or take an eco-river cruise on the Marang River*.
Tanjong Jara Resort has a PADI dive school offering a range of courses from introductory to advanced open water. Located within the Terengganu Marine Park, nearby Tenggol Island is a 45-minute speed boat ride away. It’s a popular location for diving and snorkelling due to its untouched coral gardens and a rich diversity of marine life.
In partnership with Lang Tengah Turtle Watch, the resort runs a seasonal turtle conservation programme that includes an on-site turtle hatchery, educational Visitor’s Hut and a turtle nest adoption initiative. Guests can visit the resort’s turtle hatchery and learn about the on-going conservation efforts of the team. On occasion, guests may be fortunate to witness the turtles laying their eggs on the beach or watch the hatchlings as they return to the sea.
A tourist tax is payable locally at the resort.
