Only five kilometres from the east coast of peninsular Malaysia, Gemia Island is easy to miss on a map. It is a tiny, rocky island covered in lush tropical greenery and fringed by curves of pure white sand. While this small gem may easily be overlooked, it will not be easily forgotten.

Gemia Island is only a few hundred metres from the better known Kapas Island, but offers a completely different experience. There is only one resort on Gemia, guaranteeing that you will have the beach coves and the aquamarine water almost to yourself.

Most of the rooms are built on stilts over the water and offer a superior level of comfort and spaciousness. The balconies are carefully constructed to ensure complete privacy, so you can enjoy the tranquillity of the view undisturbed.

One of the other attractions of Gemia Island is the Spa. To round off your tropical island experience and to ensure that you go home relaxed and rejuvenated, do indulge in one of their treatments.
