The
Pangkor Laut Resort, a privately owned island three miles off the West Coast of
Malaysia along the Straits of Malacca, boasts unsurpassed luxury and a fan, in
the late opera star Luciano Pavarotti, after whom its top-of-the-line suite is
named. It promises a combination of “luxury, natural beauty, and age-old
wilderness” where “peace and magically memorable moments are the currency.” And,
as befits a privately owned island, its status is truly unique: the island is
only 300 acres, of which a bare fraction is devoted to the resort and its eight
Estates, and there are no other resorts on site. What awaits you here? Pristine
beaches among them Emerald Bay, which has been called the most beautiful beach
in the world by travel experts. Fishing and snorkeling? Of course as well as
kayaking, wakeboarding, and waterskiing. You can even have a romantic sunset
cruise aboard the resort’s teakwood Oriental junk.
When
it’s time to refresh and rest, your accommodation choices are wide: villas on
stilts in the ocean…on the beach…or tucked into a hillside, with open-air
bedrooms and bathrooms. Seven restaurants and bars offer cuisine of both East
and West, prepared and customized to your preferences and needs. Whether you
love sunbathing from your private terrace…indulging in the Spa Village’s
offerings…losing yourself in a book from the library…soaking in a bubble bath
under the stars…or shopping for souvenirs at the resort’s Kazbah gift shop,
you’ll find your own special brand of relaxation at a place the staff call a
“piece of paradise 2 million years in the making…nestling in the shade of
forest giants as old as the land’’.
