Malaysia Top 5 Lists - Top Malaysia Hotels and Things to Do

A highlight for us was our jungle experience at Taman Negara which was just a four hour drive (plus a pleasant boat trip) from KL. The scenery here was out of this world; particularly from the canopy walkway suspended 25 metres from the ground.

in Pangkor
What could be more relaxing than drinking in the views from the balcony of one of Pangkor Laut's signature Sea Villas, standing elegantly on stilts above the Malacca Straits, or having a private barbecue served to you as the sun sets on the world-famous Emerald Beach? Only a fraction of this island's 300 acres have been developed to create this island paradise so there's plenty of tropical wilderness left to explore on land or by sea
Shangri La Rasa Ria Resort
in Borneo

The Andaman Resort And Spa

You'll be amazed how elegantly and unobtrusively this 5-star hotel has established itself in its ancient surroundings, and that includes all of the 188 deluxe rooms and suites, where polished wood and stone form the basis of the decor
The Majestic Malacca
