Previous awards include the prestigious Web In Travel Best Startup Award 2013 and the finalist for the TravelMole Travel Innovation Award for the most exciting new startup.

LagiSatu.com boasts partners that are some of the biggest names in travel, from eBookers to Expedia, and the site removes the hassle of trawling through countless websites and trying to find low prices for hotel rooms, whether for business travel or leisure purposes.

LagiSatu.com has also been recognised as one of the first meta engines which focuses entirely on travel to be based in a South East Asian nation. Founded and headquartered in Malaysia, the site has launched a time when the country is thriving and growing exponentially; online travel searches are on the rise, and the site has become the first to reflect a growing desire for Malaysian people to explore to the world, and for people from other countries to explore the beautiful country of Malaysia.

Headquarted in Malaysia, LagiSatu.com’s launch comes at a thriving time for the country, where online travel is predicted to explode in the next 12 months. Users can check out their destination before they check in using the suggested reading provided by the engine, and there is a unique option to search only for hotels which are approved by HalalStars; it is these innovative features that have cemented its place among the travel elite and garnered it a host of nominations from top industry bodies.
