Langkawi (17 July 2025) – For more than a decade, Tropicana Corporation Berhad (“Tropicana”) has shown its interest in Langkawi, a UNESCO Global Geopark and a top tourist destination in Malaysia. Recognising Langkawi’s largely untapped potential, Tropicana accelerated its growth plan and by 2020, Tropicana Cenang was introduced on the shores of Langkawi as the first integrated, well-planned and green building development. Tropicana Cenang, aptly named after the popular and bustling Cenang beach, sits on a 5.28-acre freehold land that comprises serviced suites and retail components. Its phase 1 & 2, Assana and Merissa Serviced Suites, recently celebrated a major milestone with a Topping Off ceremony, on track for completion in 2026. Having recorded 100% take-up, both phases are home to 831 and 60 units, respectively.
To cater to the market demand, the third and final phase – Clarissa Serviced Suites was launched together with its brand-new show unit. Aligned with the Group’s ESG commitments, both phases will adhere to the GreenRE building specifications and the quality of this development will also be assessed by Quality Assessment System in Construction (“QLASSIC”), a workmanship certification body.
Representing Tropicana were Allan Wong, MD of Project, and Ixora Ang, MD of Marketing & Sales and Business Development. Both emphasised on Tropicana visionary plan for the Jewel of Kedah, “Tropicana has expanded its foothold to Langkawi for more than a decade now. Langkawi is known for its duty-free status, cultural heritage, and its rich geological history dating back half a billion years, including mountains, islands, and beaches. We see the huge growth potential and over the years, we have engaged with various stakeholders, showing our support to the community and authority with R&R upgrade, infrastructure enhancement and charity initiatives.”
“In 2020, we accelerated our growth plan with the introduction of Tropicana Cenang, the first integrated, well-planned and green building development in Langkawi. Today, our phase 1 & 2, Assana and Merissa Serviced Suites, recorded 100% take-up and celebrated their topping off ceremony. With such strong demand, we are rolling out our phase 3, Clarissa Serviced Suites, together with a brand-new show unit. Our audience is largely savvy homebuyers, business owners, and families looking for holiday homes,” they added.
Also present at this milestone event were Yang Berusaha Tuan Haji Zulkifli bin Abdullah, Senior Chief Assistant District Officer of Langkawi; Encik Alwi Shakir Abdullah, Manager of Langkawi Tourist Information Centre; Jeremiah Tan, Executive Director of Temokin Group; Terenze Tee, Associate Director of SA Architects and Ar. Syah Kamaruddin, Principal and Director of Veritas Architects. At the event, Yang Berusaha Tuan Haji Zulkifli expressed that Langkawi is proud to have the presence of Tropicana, an expert master planner and community builder that has crafted many vibrant and thriving townships across Malaysia. “We hope with Tropicana’s presence and support in Langkawi, we will bring it to greater heights, cementing Langkawi’s position as a top destination for holiday makers and retirees in Malaysia. This will also strengthen our economic growth for the community and businesses in this region,” he imparted.
