During the Luxurious Magazine visit to The Club at Saujana Resort we took some time to ask Hotel Manager Pat Phanekham a few questions.

asked you describe it to them in a few sentences, what would you say?
Mr Pat Phanekham: The Club Saujana Resort really is the ultimate urban retreat, a lot of ground, in fact 160 acres of lush tropical gardens with two 18 hole championship golf courses at the Sajauna Golf and Country Club, plus the added benefit of the location – 35 Min’s drive from Kuala Lumpur Airport (KLIA) and 30 Min’s from Kuala Lumpur Centre. So whether it business of pleasure, were perfectly placed for both.
