Get Hitched in Paradise at Redang Island

Tucked away from the hustle and bustle of Malaysia’s capital city of Kuala Lumpur, the idyllic Redang Island is one of the largest islands off the east coast of Peninsular Malaysia. Known as the “Maldives of Malaysia”, Redang Island has plenty to offer the casual vacationer - from white sandy beaches, beautiful turquoise waters and a world-famous marine sanctuary park located in the South China Sea.

But for couples aspiring to tie the knot in a tropical paradise complete with impeccable service, look no further than the prestigious 5-star The Taaras Beach & Spa Resort. Built with modern and luxurious decor, the resort is definitely the best that the island has to offer.

The resort’s name, ‘Taara’, comes from the Sanskrit language which means ‘Goddess of the Sea’. Following its namesake, the resort’s aesthetics carries a natural look which compliments the surrounding lush forest and creates a magical experience for couples to celebrate their union.

Here’s why we think you should consider having your destination wedding at The Taaras Beach & Spa Resort:

Luxurious Accommodations

After a full day of festivities, both you and your guests get to indulge in the resort’s selection of rooms. For families, the Cliff Bay Suite with a spacious living room, oversized bathroom and a walk-in wardrobe offers a two-bedroom suite option. You’d also get breathtaking views of Redang’s tropical rainforest from a private balcony.

If you’re more of a beach lover, you’d fall in love with the Ocean Front Suite as we did! Situated on the beach, and so close to the ocean, you can almost hear the waves break from the upper or lower level Asian-styled suite. The Ocean Front Suite offers a separate living room and private veranda on which to enjoy the breeze while admiring the turquoise blue ocean.

The Taaras Villa is the way to go for the ultimate honeymoon retreat. This private clifftop, five-bedroom villa overlooks the resort with sweeping views out to the South China Sea. The villa comes with a private infinity pool, elevator, home gym, breakfast chef, butler, and security service.

Top-class Facilities

Why compromise your comfort when travelling for your wedding? The resort has its own private lounge, located at the arrival hall of the Sultan Mahmud Airport, Kuala Terengganu, where you can relax before your land transfer to the jetty. Complimentary snacks and beverages, Wi-Fi, charging stations, reading materials and a flat screen television are available for your comfort.

Whether it is in the water or in the rainforest, The Taaras Beach & Spa Resort has something for you and your guests - including a private beach area for the wedding ceremony.

You’ll also be spoilt for choice when you dine at The Taaras Beach & Spa Resort. Choose from a lavish buffet spread of International and Asian Fusion inspired cuisine at Asian All Day Dining or dine outdoors on the deck on delectable grilled seafood at The Beach Brasserie. After your sunset wedding ceremony, you and your guests can unwind at the resort’s beach bar while soaking up the sights and sounds of the ocean. Bayu Bar serves exotic cocktails, and light ‘beach friendly’ snacks and refreshers.
