Shangri-La's Rasa Sayang Resort & Spa Review

Rasa Sayang has 12 hectares (30 acres) of grounds along Penang's best beach -- enough for a par-3 executive golf course, two pools, extensive gardens, two wings of guest rooms (Rasa and Garden), and an award-winning spa. Standard rooms are gorgeous; most have sea views and are decorated in contemporary style, with natural tones, large bathrooms, and big fluffy beds. In the more luxurious Rasa Wing, guest rooms have private verandas and gardens or balconies with tubs outside. Guests who stay in the Rasa Wing also have access to a private lounge and swimming pool. Rasa Sayang is home to the Shangri-La's new spa brand, CHI; this luxurious and peaceful spa offers treatments based on Chinese principles of yin and yang and the five elements: metal, wood, water, fire, and earth. The hotel has several restaurants, but the Ferringi Grill attracts well-to-do locals with its lavish menu, including items like wood plank-roasted cod and smoked lamb with sautéed crab.

Facilities:
4 restaurants; 2 bars; airport transfers; babysitting; concierge; health club; 2 outdoor lagoon-style pools; room service; spa; outdoor lighted tennis courts; watersports equipment and activities

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
