Resorts World Genting wins ‘Malaysia’s Leading Resort’ for a record fifth time at World Travel Awards

Resorts World Genting (RWG) has once again reinforced its position as one of Asia’s top travel destinations, claiming the title of Malaysia’s Leading Resort at the World Travel Awards 2024.

This is the third consecutive year and the fifth time RWG has received this recognition, a testament to the resort’s commitment to excellence in hospitality, travel and tourism.  

“We are 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.

‘At RWG, we strive not to just meet expectations, but to exceed them, creating unforgettable experiences for our guests that last long after their visit,” said Resorts World Genting sales, marketing and public relations executive vice president Spencer Lee.

He said, “This award reaffirms our commitment to staying forefront of hospitality innovation, delivering world-class experiences that place us among the best in the global travel industry.

“We extend our heartfelt thanks to our guests for their continued support, helping us to achieve this honor for the fifth time. Thank you for making us the best in what we do.”

As Malaysia’s premier integrated resort destination, Resorts World Genting is constantly innovating and expanding its offerings. Among the recent enhancements is the reopening of the Genting Gohtong Jaya Cable Car (formerly 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 visit from Oct 15, 2024 to Dec 31, 2025, allowing guests ample time to enjoy every corner of the park.

Looking ahead, RWG has ambitious plans to further enhance the guest experience, with several 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.

The World Travel Awards, established in 1993, widely regarded as the ultimate hallmark of excellence within the global travel and tourism industry, recognizes leaders across various sectors who demonstrate the highest standards in their respective fields. The voting process is online, and votes come from qualified executives working within travel and tourism and the consumer travel buyer.
