After two long years apart, Malaysians all over the country are celebrating Raya this year the way it should be – with families and friends, back in their hometowns. Whether it’s colour-coordinating brand new Raya outfits, daydreaming of delicious treats, or planning getaways with extended family, there’s plenty in store for this year’s celebrations — so why not amp it up with a festive retreat?
From a quiet island hideaway with a touch of Malay architecture, to nostalgi, traditional kampung houses, check out these seven beautiful Airbnb stays across Malaysia that will make this a Raya to remember.
Seaside Sanctuaries
Picture waking up in a beautiful traditional wooden home, surrounded by stunning gardens, the ocean breeze, and a private pool as you settle into a feast and celebrate with your loved ones. If that sounds like the ‘Aidil’ holiday, Alamanda Markisa Villa or Sunset Valley – Farmers House, both located in Langkawi, promise to be the perfect place for your family gathering.
Reunion-friendly Retreats
Thinking up fun ways to spend your family gatherings? Rumah Lenggong in Perak and Rimba Alor Orchard Villa in Malacca offer plenty of options to make this long-awaited reunion all the more memorable. Roam the grounds and bring the entire family fruit-picking, or relax together in the outdoor pavilion while reminiscing about the good ol’ days.
Evergreen Escapes
For those looking for a more laid-back holiday, check out this Cameron Highlands-based kampung home, or perhaps this modern villa or a hidden rainforest retreat in Janda Baik where fresh air and gorgeous views abound. Enjoy a grand Raya spread surrounded by modern comforts and classic decor while basking in your very own natural paradise.
