Awana Kijal Golf, Beach & Spa Resort is tucked away near Kerteh, in Malaysia's East Coast about 40 minutes by air from Kuala Lumpur. The first 5-star resort in the state of Terengganu beckons with beautiful beaches and alluring islands in its vicinity.

A resort for total relaxation, Awana offers a memorable round of golf, fun-filled beach getaways and a rejuvenating spa experience. The par 72 18-hole championship course plays to a relaxed pace with only the wind changing its course to a more challenging one.

The views are magnificent. At the Palma and Rimba Nines, the serenity of a well-manicured green carpet is accompanied by the soft lapping of waves from the sea. Truly a therapeutic experience. The par 3 150 yards 14th has the reputation of being in the country. This distinctive bunker transforms into a water hazard during the rainy seasons.

After  a round of golf, be sure to experience the Taman Sari Royal Heritage Spa, offering traditional Javanese massage and treatments.
