CASUARINA BEACH RESORT Batu Ferringhi, 11100 Penang, Malaysia

In the midst of such beauty, business has its place. The Casuarina can accommodate functions from boardroom meetings to seminars for 150 persons. Imaginative incentive parties are part of the resort's attraction and a well-organised theme party like Chinatown or the appropriate Fishing Village adds up to a memorable occasion.

Your stay will not be complete without leisurely pursuits. Exciting watersports like skiing, wind surfing, parasailing, fishing, snorkelling and scuba diving tempt even the most retiring of guests. Of course for some, the idea of soaking in the sun on a deckchair with their favourite book is the perfect retreat.
