Elegant colonial resort
A 1930s cottage was the starting point for Cameron Highlands Resort. Tudor style elements and British names recall the colonial period and the good life on the plantations in the Cameron Highlands. For example, there is the Jim Thompson tea room, where you can drink tea from fine porcelain, and where fresh scones are served with clotted cream. Or take the Highlands Bar, where the evenings are graced by jazzy piano music, and you can choose from a selection of mature whiskies. Even the dress code for dinner fits into this atmosphere.
In a subtle way, Malaysia still penetrates into life in this elegant resort. Traditional British cuisine and Asian flavourings are refined combined into colonial classics. In the spa village, the various treatments make full use of local medicinal plants and the healing effect of – however appropriate – tea.
