Putrajaya Marriott Hotel recently concluded one of its most intimate lifestyle activations to date—An Equestrian Journey with Faizal Tahir—a sold-out experience that brought together music, nature, and meaningful connection.
Held from11 to 13 July 2025 at Putrajaya Marriott Hotel, the event was first announced globally in June through the Marriott Bonvoy Momentsplatform, where only three exclusive packageswere released for bidding, each offering a two-person access pass.
The curated weekend featured Malaysian music icon Faizal Tahir in a setting far removed from the concert stage, at the peaceful grounds of MAEPS Rubinga Equestrian Center.There, guests joined Faizal in his personal routine of horse care: brushing, feeding, andconnecting with the animals that have long been a grounding force in his life.
The exclusive experience allowed our Marriott Bonvoy members to engage directly with Faizal through shared activities and conversation, in a format that delivered more than just access, but presence.
“I’ve always found peace through working with horses, but this was the first time I’ve shared that side of myself in such a setting. It wasn’t just personal but it became a shared experience, and I think that’s what made it meaningful. Marriott Bonvoy Moments gave us the space to connect over something real,” said Faizal Tahir.
Guests were also treated to a two-night stay in the hotel’s newly renovated Deluxe Pool View Rooms, along with a brunch at Zest Lifestyle Restaurant, where local flavours were reinterpreted in a contemporary menu. Thoughtful details throughout the weekend, from curated welcome amenities to unstructured downtime gave the retreat its relaxed yet elevated rhythm.
