About the employer

The Westin Desaru Coast Resort is a luxury beachfront resort in Desaru Coast, Johor, Malaysia, operating under the Westin Hotels & Resorts brand, part of Marriott International. Westin focuses on wellbeing-led hospitality, offering guests comfortable accommodation, healthy dining, spa and fitness facilities, family activities, and relaxing coastal experiences. The resort serves leisure travellers, families, groups and corporate guests visiting the Desaru area. Employees generally work in a multinational hospitality environment with opportunities across guest services, food and beverage, recreation, housekeeping, wellness and hotel operations.

The property is located near Desaru’s beaches and attractions, making it suited to people who enjoy resort living and a quieter coastal lifestyle.

Working in Malaysia

Desaru Coast is a coastal resort destination on Johor’s mainland rather than a separate island, with nearby beaches, golf courses, water attractions and nature areas. Hospitality is the main source of local employment, with opportunities in hotels, restaurants, recreation, housekeeping, transport, retail and tourism services. Malaysian culture combines Malay, Chinese, Indian and indigenous influences, and respectful dress and behaviour are appreciated. Life is generally slower and quieter than in Kuala Lumpur, although a car or organised transport is useful because public transport is limited. Nearby Bandar Penawar provides everyday shops and services, while Johor Bahru offers larger commercial facilities. Foreign employees normally need an employer-sponsored Malaysian work permit or employment pass and should not begin work before approval. Confirm salary, accommodation, transport, medical cover and permit arrangements with the employer before relocating. Malaysia is warm and humid year-round, with heavier rain during monsoon periods.
