Club Med Borneo Kuala Penyu, unveiling a new ecochic resort

Club Med Borneo in Kuala Penyu, Sabah is expected to open in the second half of 2025. The luxury resort will be part of Club Med's 5 Trident Exclusive Collection.

Located just a scenic 90-minute drive from Kota Kinabalu International Airport in Sabah, Malaysia, Club Med Borneo Kuala Penyu promises to be a hidden oasis waiting to be discovered. While the pristine shores of Kuala Penyu beach are a beloved spot for locals, its serene beauty remains largely unexplored by tourists, offering an exclusive experience for those seeking tranquil escapes.

In an exciting collaboration with Golden Sands Beach Resort City, a prominent Sabah-based company, Club Med is embarking on a venture to establish its inaugural large-scale, sustainably built BREEAM–certified beach resort in the Asia Pacific region. The project, which broke ground in the second quarter of 2020, signifies a significant commitment to environmentally conscious tourism practices. However, the journey to completion has been challenged by the unforeseen disruptions caused by the global COVID-19 pandemic, resulting in delays beyond the initial target opening date of 2022.

Anticipation continues to mount as Club Med Borneo nears its grand unveiling, promising an unparalleled blend of luxury, sustainability, and natural splendour. This eagerly awaited addition to Club Med’s portfolio will mark the brand’s second resort in Malaysia, following the success of Club Med Cherating Beach, an acclaimed eco-nature retreat nestled in the lush landscapes of Pahang. As the countdown to its debut begins, Club Med Borneo stands poised to redefine the paradisiacal allure of Kuala Penyu, setting new standards for eco-chic hospitality in the region.
