Eco-Luxury at The Chateau: A Sanctuary for Nature Lovers
A Sanctuary for Nature Lovers
Growing awareness of the need to reduce environmental impact has led Berjaya Hills Resort Bhd to implement measures that allow guests at the Chateau Spa and Wellness Resort to enjoy healing and relaxation away from city life while also being mindful of preserving nature.
A French-themed Village Resort
The Chateau, 45 minutes away from Kuala Lumpur, is designed as a French-themed village resort, and is quiet and serene, allowing guests to rejuvenate without harming the environment. The resort has established an organic farm for guest use and internal consumption, reducing emissions by not purchasing items from the city, which would contribute to upstream and downstream movements.
Sustainable Farming and Water Management
The Chateau also produces its water from the dam, sources water from the hill and springs, and progressively converts its vehicles into electric vehicles. The resort features 172 rooms from eight categories, including Deluxe Rooms, Premier Rooms, one-bedroom suites, jacuzzi suites, noble suites, two-bedroom suites, three-bedroom suites, and Son Altesse suites. The room’s designs are inspired by traditional yet sophisticated European-themed furnishings, complemented with luxurious amenities.
Aligning with Asean’s Sustainable Goals
The efforts taken at the resort are aligned with the sustainability efforts at the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (Asean) level. The Chateau’s "La Sante Spa" was recently bestowed with the Asean Spa Services Award at the Asean Tourism Standard Awards 2025 by the Ministry of Tourism, Arts and Culture.
Travel Trends and Surge in Tourists
Domestically, the majority of Malaysians are still keeping their travel itinerary within the country – 65 per cent of The Chateau’s guests are Malaysians – and this trend is expected to continue this year and next year. International tourists, on the other hand, account for 35 per cent of the resort’s guests, with a significant increase expected from India and China.
Sustainable Farming through Veggie Nature
Berjaya Hills has found itself supplying vegetables to resorts and restaurants under Berjaya Group’s umbrella, and the rising demand ranges from Kuala Lumpur to Singapore and even Hong Kong. The latest addition to the Berjaya Hills Resort family, Veggie Nature, focuses on sustainable farming, which has seen a high demand trend from the market.
Conclusion
The Chateau Spa and Wellness Resort is a perfect blend of luxury and sustainability, offering an unparalleled experience for nature lovers. With its organic farm, water management system, and sustainable farming practices, the resort is setting a new standard for eco-luxury in Malaysia.
