Wouldn’t it be nice to find that perfect site where you can both have the rest you need and the recreation you always wanted? At the Aryani you can pleasure yourself with the activities on hand or simply communing with nature with privacy and exclusivity.


A clash of nature and culture within the coastline, the State of Terengganu is the cradle of Malay culture in Malaysia. It also has the longest coastlines in the country.


The name Aryani means “the origin” in Sanskrit. If you have to look at the place, it isn’t the typical hotel you dreamed of, the Aryani stands true to its name; it portrays the classical Malay settlement from way back. This ambiance is coupled with a refreshing site of the quiet sandy beach of Terengganu, where it faces the Redang National Marine Park.As you gaze along Aryani, you would see heritages of the country such as hand woven gold thread “Songket”, brasswares, fine-wood carvings, woven mats and batik.
