Minor Hotel Group announces additional details of its joint venture with Malaysian partner Themed Attractions Resorts & Hotels (TAR&H) to develop an Anantara resort in Desaru Coast in south-east Malaysia.
MHG?s shareholding of the US$242 million project is 60 percent, with TAR&H holding 40 percent.
Scheduled to open in 2018, the new-build Anantara Desaru Resort & Villas will be located in the heart of the new beachfront development in Desaru Coast and will have 123 keys comprising a 103-room resort with 20 three- and four-bedroom villas.
Desaru Coast is a resort area located at Malaysia?s south-eastern tip in Johor Bahru and spans over 3,900 acres along a pristine 17 kilometre beachfront facing the South China Sea.
It is in close proximity to Iskandar Malaysia and is easily accessible, 45-minutes from Senai International Airport and a two-hour drive from Singapore. Additionally visitors from Singapore can travel to Desaru Coast by ferry followed by a short drive.
Attractions in the area will include two championship golf courses (27-hole Ernie Els and 18-hole Vijay Singh designed) managed by Troon Golf, a water adventure park, a waterfront retail village, a conference centre and additional world-class hotels and resorts.
