Spa Village Tanjong Jara gains recognition as the Most Innovative Spa at UK's Tatler Spa Awards held in Vogue House in London on 11 September 2007. This accolade is a testament to the unique nature of the Malay healing culture found only in the east coast of Malaysia.

Tatler's Body&Soul Guide covered 106 of the best spas in the world yet only presented five Spa Awards. The awards examined a diverse range of desires among spa goers; and awards were given to the Best Family Spa, the Best Spa for Pampering, the Most Life Changing Spa, the Best City Spa and the Most Innovative Spa.

The ancient heritage of Malay healing traditions and techniques are combined with oils and scrubs, created from handpicked natural local ingredients, to provide unique and authentic spa experiences in this luxury spa retreat.
