The Peladang Setiu Agrotourism & Resort will invest about RM1 million next year to upgrade the resort which boasts of excellent facilities for seminars, camping and other outdoor activities.
Its manager, Ahmad Sanusi Ibrahim, said the main focus of the upgrading exercise would be to increase the number of rooms by adding 12 more chalets.
Currently the resort has 58 chalets and the majority of the guests are from the east coast of Peninsular Malaysia.
The number of tourists to the resort is estimated between 50,000 and 60,000 annually and this does not include day guests.
Rooms are between RM89 and RM390 per night.
Recreational activities available at the resort include, among others, kayaking, river crossing, paddle boat, trekking, obstacle crossing and games, and a visit to a herbal farm.
