The Taaras Beach and Spa Resort
The Taaras Beach & Spa Resort is located on Redang Island, off the north-east coast of Malaysia. Surrounded by the crystal-clear waters of the South China Sea, the island is home to some of the region’s best dive sites and spectacular marine life, including a turtle sanctuary.
The hotel offers a boat transfer (charges apply) from the mainland to Redang Island, departing three times a day from Merang Waterfront Jetty (see here for details). Public ferries are also available. The jetty is approximately a 35-minute drive from Kuala Terengganu (Sultan Mahmud) Airport (TGG), which is just an hour’s flight from Kuala Lumpur. Transfers are not included, please plan accordingly.

The Resort — Tropical beachfront bliss
Nestled on the beautiful island of Redang, The Taaras Beach & Spa Resort is an award-winning, revered retreat and the perfect place to relax and renew in one of the world’s most peaceful settings. Poised cliffside overlooking the spectacular, crystal clear waters of the South China Sea, this resort is for those seeking the exclusive, the secluded and the stylish.
Harmonising with the surrounding unspoiled landscape, The Taaras Beach & Spa Resort ensures nature is the spectacle. Here, towering trees provide a lush green backdrop to your daily activities, while bountiful rainforest sounds and powdery white sands add to the serene ambience and relaxed tropical lifestyle. By blending Asian traditions with contemporary amenities, every detail of this hidden haven has been carefully curated to give guests a taste of Malaysia in absolute comfort.
Spend hours on the white sand of the private beach, lazily lap the palm-tree-lined infinity pool or watch others splash about while you make your way through the menu at poolside restaurant. Aspiring mermaids and mermen will find wonderlands to explore under the surface thanks to the onsite PADI dive centre. When the sun starts to dip, venture to the beachfront for a cocktail or two at Bayu Bar or stay by the pool to quench your thirst at Asean Terrace Lounge, where a carefully crafted list of drinks awaits. Families will find something to entertain both little and big kids: a bevvy of watersports can be organised by the onsite centre, while a children’s paddling pool means everyone can spend hours splashing about. When it’s time for some adults-only serenity, drop the kids off at Jojo Playroom, where they’ll be entertained by trained staff, before hot-footing it to Taaras Spa for a rejuvenating treatment.
