Philea Resort & Spa, Melaka

This five-star award-winning resort was built utilising natural Malaysian made resources, including 8,000 pieces of disused railway sleepers for fencing and staircases and more than 6,000 tons of marble from Perak as block fencing. Recycled materials from shipwrecks used as furniture in the lobby. More than 3,000 trees were planted within the resort to conserve and restore the natural resources while a man-made waterfall has been added to give a distinctive touch to its surrounding. Philea is exquisitely designed as a unique destination.
