Not sure if this is relevant information but I flew MH domestic yesterday and the inflight magazine focused on the Johor Bahru area and nearby Desaru coast. AMAN resort was confirmed but no specific opening date.

Also confirmed on http://www.desarucoast.com
for 2017 (phazed openings).

Any update on this or did I miss it?

Thanks FlyerEC, your opening info is well appreciated.

Do they've a website yet?

I mean it's close to their soft opening as you stated and it's unusual that I couldn't find their official website/online presence.

How do people book them? Calling?

Cheers & Safe Travels. ^

Here is a video from Made Wijaya of Azerai. Notice Made Wijaya says AZ is going to stick it to the Russian. You have to wait till 0:31 to see the hotel.

Well, he doesn't actually say that AZ said that. It was the commentator who said that! Also, whoever is commenting is obviously visiting the site for the first time, so actually tells us nothing of relevance, but makes a meal of conjecture.

The opening, by the way, is more likely to be January 2017 than December.

Thanks - I actually meant the opening of the hotel in Luang Prabang which I see you say will probably be January next year.
