A five-star resort hotel built within a lush rain forest and situated on a ridge set back from the sea. The hotel contains 124 guest modules of which 40 are free-standing villas and 84 are connected rooms and suites arranged around formal pools and linked by open walkways. Local materials such as Balau timber, Belian wood shingles, and Langkawi stone and marble were used in construction.
