MALACCA, Malaysia, July 11, 2025 -- Birkin International Hotel, a landmark in sustainable luxury, had officially opened its doors on July 9 in a grand celebration officiated by His Excellency Tun Seri Setia Dr. Haji Mohd Ali bin Mohd Rustam, Governor of Melaka, and YAB Datuk Seri Utama Ab Rauf bin Yusoh, Chief Minister of Melaka. The opening marked a significant milestone for Malaysia's tourism industry, symbolizing a bold step toward positioning Melaka as a premier destination for eco-conscious, high-value travellers.
Leading the launch were Yao Lien Ti, President of Taiwan-based developer YeaShin International Development Co. Ltd, and Simon Tan, General Manager of Birkin International Hotel. Their shared vision was clear - to create a destination where luxury, sustainability, and culture intersect.
The USD 235 million (RM1 billion) resort-style development is nestled along the pristine shoreline of Klebang beach, just 12 kilometres from Melaka International Airport. Boasting 526 elegant all-suite rooms, each suite comes with a private balcony offering sweeping views of the legendary Straits of Malacca—setting the stage for an unforgettable escape steeped in both sophistication and serenity.
