"Morib used to be popular for its beach but over the years, it started to lose its appeal due to the lack of luxury accommodation. "Morib Gold Coast was built to revive Morib's image. We  are aiming to be one of the major tourism spots in the country. "The resort offers a beautiful sea view and exciting activities for both holiday-makers and business travellers." said Morib Gold Coast general manager Lau Cheong Leong. 

The resort is less than one and a half hours' drive from Kuala Lumpur, 35 minutes' drive from the Kuala Lumpur International Airport, Low Cost Carrier Terminal and Formula One Sepang Circuit, and 10 minutes' drive from Banting. For more information, visit its website at www.gcr.com.my, or call 03-3198 1028.
