Resorts World Genting (RWG) has clinched the prestigious title of ‘Malaysia’s Leading Resort’ at the World Travel Awards 2024, marking its fifth win and third consecutive year securing this honour.
The World Travel Awards, established in 1993, is widely regarded as the ultimate hallmark of excellence within the global travel and tourism industry. Voting is conducted online, with input from qualified executives in the travel and tourism sector as well as consumer travel buyers.
RWG continues to innovate and expand its offerings. Among recent enhancements is the reopening of the Genting Gohtong Jaya Cable Car, formerly known as Genting SkyWay, providing guests an additional scenic option to reach the resort.
Genting SkyWorlds Theme Park has also rolled out its much-anticipated annual pass at an introductory price of RM280, valid for visits from 15 October 2024 to 31 December 2025.
Spencer Lee, Executive Vice President of Sales, Marketing and Public Relations of Resorts World Genting, expressed his gratitude for the honour.
“We are incredibly proud to be recognized as Malaysia’s Leading Resort for the third consecutive year at the World Travel Awards as this recognition fuels our passion to continuously evolve,” he said.
Looking ahead, RWG has ambitious plans to further enhance the guest experience, with several exciting new projects in the pipeline. The resort is also committed to sustainability and ecotourism, ensuring that every development aligns with its mission of responsible tourism.
A highlight of this initiative is the inaugural Genting Sustainbiz F&B Expo, held in September 2024, where RWG signed five MoUs with leading partners, valued at RM12 million.
RWG boasts about 10,500 rooms across seven distinct hotels, making it Malaysia’s premier integrated resort destination. The resort also features wide-ranging leisure and entertainment facilities, including gaming, theme park and amusement attractions, dining and retail outlets, as well as international shows and business convention facilities.
Genting SkyWorlds, a first class, world-class theme park, is a key attraction in augmenting RWG’s integrated entertainment line-up. Additionally, Genting Highlands Premium Outlets at the mid-hill further complements RWG’s extensive premium offerings.
Genting Malaysia is a member of the Genting Group, one of Asia’s leading and best-managed multinational companies. The Genting Group is led by Tan Sri Lim Kok Thay, a visionary entrepreneur who has successfully established the Resorts World brand as a leader in the leisure and hospitality sector in Malaysia, Singapore, the US, the Bahamas and the UK.
