Occupying the southern section of the Malay Peninsula, adjacent to Singapore, peninsular Malaysia packs a lot into its relatively small dimensions. Here you'll find enticing cities such as Kuala Lumpur — Malaysia's space-age capital — and Malacca, a cosmopolitan trading port with some of the region's best-preserved heritage architecture. It's a paradise for beach lovers too. Established superstars such as Pulau Langkawi, Pulau Tioman, and the Perhentian Islands continue to wow old and new fans alike. An emerging beach hotspot is the Desaru Coast in the southern state of Johor. In 2020, the One&Only Desaru Coast, the brand’s first property in Asia, debuted as a spectacular tropical sanctuary with a spa and golf course. Also newly opened is the Anantara Desaru Coast Resort and Villas, with lush gardens and lagoon swimming pools. An entirely different experience awaits in the Cameron Highlands. Where emerald tea plantations unfurl across the hill-station area and offer cool restorative temperatures, gorgeous scenery, and remnants of genteel colonial culture.
