Top 5-Star Hotels in Langkawi

A Truly Magical Experience – Beyond Expectations! I recently stayed at Berjaya Resort Langkawi, and I have to say it was one of the most magical and memorable experiences ever! I initially booked the *Rainforest Chalet*, but when I arrived at the hotel with my kids, something extraordinary happened. As I was getting ready to be transferred to the chalet, the assistant manager, Hafi (if I’m not mistaken), stopped the buggy and personally told me that they had decided to upgrade me to the **Premier Chalet on Water**. He mentioned that after seeing me check in with my children, they thought the Rainforest Chalet might not be as comfortable for us. I was completely speechless! The staff’s thoughtfulness and kindness made me feel so welcome and special, like I was being treated like family. What made this even more amazing was that I had only booked the room two hours before check-in via Trip.com, and requested a small anniversary celebration. I didn’t expect much given the short notice, but to my surprise, the staff went out of their way to decorate the room beautifully with towel and bed decor that made the occasion so much more special. I couldn’t believe how efficient and sweet they were in such a short time! What really stood out was the personal WhatsApp message I received from Ira (the guest service team) after check-in. She provided all the menus from the hotel restaurants and a list of activities around Langkawi, including night market schedule around the town! As someone who also works in the hotel industry, I think all hotels should adopt this approach. It keeps guests well-informed and makes them feel truly appreciated and connected throughout their stay. This small gesture made me feel like I had everything I needed at my fingertips! From the bottom of my heart, thank you Berjaya Resort Langkawi, I cannot recommend them enough. From the warm welcome to the magical moments they created, this was an experience that my family and I will cherish forever. If you’re looking for a place where you’ll be treated with care, thoughtfulness, and personal attention, this is it!

A long time visitor to Bali, but first time at Pelangi - silly me... Firstly, location, location, location - right on the beach in Seminyak. Easy distance to shops and restaurants. Secondly, and more importantly, the staff were exceptional. I stayed over Nyepi, and there was always friendly and helpful service, even though many of them were unable to be with their own families for this sacred celebration. Finally, I had a great room, with a full sized bath, and a view towards the pool and the ocean beyond. Oh, and the restaurant was great for breakfast and dinner, with the amazing ocean view, plus room service was great and quick when needed. Before I left, after a 10 night stay, I rebooked for 7 months time, and am so looking forward to returning. Thank you for a memorable stay.

My wife and I fully enjoy the Ritz Charlton Langkawi. This was our third stay in two years, and we will return again and again. The well-trained and super-friendly staff throughout the resort are a shining example of a 5-star resort. One of the best breakfast offerings anywhere in the world. One issue that might have been improved was upon arrival. We landed late evening and were escorted to our room - only to realize the air conditioning was non-existent. We were moved to another Deluxe room and apologized for the inconvenience.

I recently stayed at The Westin Langkawi Resort & Spa with my family, and it was an unforgettable experience. The property is stunningly beautiful, with lush greenery and breathtaking views of the Andaman Sea. It’s the perfect getaway for families looking for a serene and luxurious vacation spot. A special mention goes to Chef Mahesh Singh Rawat, the Indian Sous Chef, who went above and beyond to cater to our dietary requirements. His thoughtful gesture of making delicious tea for my family was truly appreciated and added a warm touch to our stay. The tea was delightful, and it’s these small acts of kindness that make a big difference. My family and I had an amazing time at the resort, enjoying the various amenities and the picturesque surroundings. We created some wonderful memories together that we will cherish forever. I highly recommend The Westin Langkawi Resort & Spa for families seeking a memorable and relaxing holiday.

The hotel is some distance away from the F&B / eateries outside. Needed to book a cab if we wanted to eat out. However the overall environment / ambiance of the resort is very relaxing, private beach feels utterly exclusive. Staffs were helpful too, could reach them via what’s app chat which they’d reply almost instantly. Buggy service was also always on time.

My husband and I spent 4D3N at this Sunset Villa to celebrate our birthday month and it was not enough! Butler service was excellent. The room was very spacious for the 2 of us, clean and the view from the room was phenomenal. Breakfast choices were great, although some dishes tasted good while some were a miss but we enjoyed it, nonetheless. What we ordered for in-room dining was great too! The only thing which was a bummer was that there was something wrong with the toilet flush and it occured during the last 2 days of our stay. However, they came to get it rectified as soon as I reported it. Although the flush gave us problems again on the last day, I would still like to compliment on their prompt and professional service on attempting to get it fixed. All the staff there were friendly from the butlers, the buggy drivers to the F&B staff. We enjoyed our stay so much that we are already planning to book a stay there again for our anniversary this October!

Came to celebrate my boyfriend’s birthday but was not disappointed. They’ve prepared a cake which was really sweet of them! Hotel is located quite far in tanjong rhu, so it may be quite difficult to get a grab to get out. we needed to go to Pantai cenang one day for jet skiing, and there was no grab drivers around even after hailing 30min. However the hotel was really nice to help us call a taxi, but even for them to arrive at the hotel it took 20 min due to the distance. We were quite late for our jet skiing that day, so do plan your trip well and leave way earlier. However, this gave us a lot of privacy which is great. We practically had the private beach to ourselves and there isn’t much people using it. The beach is also very pretty! Great for people who want a getaway from crowds and city. Rooms are huge, and they have given amenities such as bath salt for your stay. However, not all channels of Tv is working (Netflix etc) even though it’s written on the leaflet they’ve printed for each room. One night, we tried to call the hotel to clear our dirty dishes but no one picked up across reception, housekeeping, in room dining even though we were calling for 1 hour. Overall we really loved our stay. The people were nice and it’s really a great value based on what you pay. I’ll let the pictures show you this amazing resort :)

I had a wonderful stay at this accommodation. The food was delicious at all restaurants, and the cleanliness throughout the facility left a lasting impression. The staff were incredibly kind and hospitable, ensuring a pleasant experience. Although the beach's sand was pristine, the sea's transparency was slightly affected by the wind, yet it remained beautiful. I would definitely choose this place again when I return to Langkawi Island.

I stay for two night with my family 4 adult , 1 child age 11 and next hotel is Westin in Kuah, I am beyond satisfied for choosing this hotel,very excellent service from everyone. I could remember their name from front desk staff, asrul, Dini. Cafe Restaurant, hazim ( this boy service really outstanding! :D , bellboy Mady with his warmth smile ,helping me carrying my luggage. And not to forget Mr Marinaren at lounge who have been very attentive and more others. All these people are the main reason i would come back here again for holiday. Thank you for making my holiday memorable. All the amenities make me doesn’t want to go out anymore,while food is delicious and view is spectacular . Couldn’t ask for more. ( Park Royal langkawi service way better than Westin )

We have visited and reviewed The Datai many times and the fact that we continue to come back year after year despite the very long journey speaks volumes. The setting is stunning and the staff are excellent, very friendly and helpful. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and were happy to chill out and relax surrounded by nature. We have visited many super properties in other countries and enjoyed them very much but The Datai ticks all the boxes for us and feels like our idea of paradise! Over the years we have stayed in most room categories and they are all great but our favourite is a Rainforest Pool Villa. Relaxing in the pool watching the monkeys, birds and butterflies whilst listening to the sounds of the forest and the stream is just sublime. We visited in April and were prepared for rain as the dry season has ended but we had beautiful sunny weather for the vast majority of our 10 day stay. We had 3 days with rain in the late afternoon/early evening but these passed quickly. At this time of the year a lot of flowers are in bloom and many trees are in fruit thus attracting more wildlife. We thoroughly recommend the Spa and enjoyed massages during one of the rain showers which added to the relaxation! The Datai is the most eco friendly hotel we have ever been to and a visit to ‘The Lab’ is well worthwhile and educational as well as fun! We also ‘learned how to be naturalists’ at the Nature Centre and placed hidden cameras in the forest to help monitor the behaviour of the wildlife. This was a fascinating experience and well worth doing! There are many other things to enjoy but we just stuck to our lovely pool and ventured out mainly to eat. We didn’t even go to the beautiful beach at all! The food was great everywhere we ate and if the hotel is busy the Beach Club is a great, peaceful alternative for breakfast although it is just ‘a la carte’ with no buffet option. As every year some old friends amongst the staff have left and we miss them, but new stars always emerge! Thanks to everyone but we must mention Yoon, Azmir, Edy, Gunawan, Shaiful, Izzie, Amelia, Wendy and the legendary Sivagaran!
