Shangri-La Rasa Sayang Resort & Spa
The grande dame of Batu Ferringhi — gardens, spa and five-star service.
Rasa Sayang is the address most people picture when they think of a Batu Ferringhi resort. Set in mature tropical gardens toward the western end of the strip, it is built around two wings: the adults-only Rasa Wing and the family-friendly Garden Wing.
The celebrated CHI, The Spa, several restaurants and bars, a mini-golf course and one of the best stretches of sand on the bay make it the island's flagship beach resort. If you want polished, full-service luxury, this is the bar everything else is measured against.
