LANGKAWI'S FIRST 5-STAR RESORT MARKS 35 YEARS OF HISTORY AND TRANSFORMATIONPelangi Beach Resort & Spa, Langkawi Commemorates Milestone Anniversary with Exciting Plans for the Future

This month marks the 35th anniversary of Malaysia's first 5-star resort, Pelangi Beach Resort & Spa, Langkawi, which reflects on its influence on the island's tourism industry and reveals plans for future growth. Since its 1989 opening during the Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting (CHOGM), the resort has played a vital role in Langkawi's development into a world-famous travel destination.
Over the decades, Pelangi Beach Resort & Spa has evolved while staying true to its inspiration — a traditional Malay village. Its location on the shores of Pantai Cenang, paired with thoughtful design and guest-focused amenities, has helped it remain a favoured destination for both domestic and international travellers. To mark its anniversary, the resort unveiled its newly upgraded Horizon Pool, featuring a sprawling 1,489 sqm adult pool, a 311 sqm kid’s pool, and an expansive 4,140 sqm pool deck.
"This 35th anniversary is a proud moment for all of us," said Neoh Kean Boon, General Manager of the resort. "It’s a chance to reflect on how far the property has come, while embracing continuous innovation and improvement to make every guest’s stay even more special, all while staying true to the spirit of the destination. "

The tradition of Langkawi is reflected in Pelangi Beach Resort & Spa's architecture and service attitude. Its chalets are made to seem like Malaysian traditional kampung homes, with contemporary additions to make them comfortable for modern tourists. Through its "Pelangi Reimagined" campaign, which debuted renovated accommodations and improved amenities, the resort most recently updated its amenities to meet the evolving demands of its visitors.
The resort’s dining offerings, recreational activities, and proximity to Langkawi’s attractions further contribute to its appeal. However, its upcoming MICE facilities signal an even broader vision for the future. Designed to host events ranging from business meetings to large-scale conventions, these developments underscore Pelangi Beach Resort & Spa’s role in supporting Langkawi’s position as a hub for international events and tourism.
