TUI grows Southeast Asia portfolio with new Malaysia hotel
TUI Group has signed a management agreement for its second TUI Blue hotel in Malaysia.
TUI Blue Medini Johor is scheduled to open its doors in August 2026, strengthening TUI’s presence in Southeast Asia.
It follows the launch of TUI Blue Haven Ipoh in September 2024 as the first TUI branded hotel in Malaysia.
It is located in Medini, a central business district in the Iskandar Puteri area of Johor Bahru, close to Legoland Malaysia, as well as other family-friendly activities.
TUI Blue Medini Johor offers 214 rooms, a pool area, a gym, a restaurant, meeting rooms and a co-working space.
“Malaysia continues to attract holidaymakers not only from neighbouring Asian countries, but also from Europe”, says Peter Krueger, CEO Holiday Experiences at TUI Group.
“We are delighted to expand our diverse portfolio of holiday experiences with the introduction of our own hotel brands and look forward to forging new partnerships in the region.”
