There were no Americans at the resort. Most guests were Europeans, from Britain, Germany or Holland. Many were honeymoon couples (the resort does a
tree planting ceremony for them, complete with a plaque). But there were a number of families with children of various ages, all
appearing to have a great time. If you go to Malaysia for the first time, I definitely recommend a stay at Tanjong Jara. But spend only 2 or 3 nights there; then travel to other parts of the country. (Next week I will show you a resort with overwater bungalows that will blow you away – but not your wallet.) Room rates at Tanjong Jara begin at $200 USD a night – and that’s a bargain!

Johnny Jet Video of my trip to Tanjong Jara Resort. It's on
YouTube, so it takes only a few seconds to load (though the quality is not as crisp). We also have all the JohnnyJet Videos ever made on their servers as well.
