My stay at The Datai Langkawi was nothing short of magical. Nestled in the rainforest with direct access to the beach, the resort offers the perfect blend of nature and luxury. From the moment I arrived, I felt a deep sense of peace and serenity. The service was truly remarkable — every staff member made me feel warmly welcomed and well taken care of. Breakfast was a highlight, with an incredible spread and even free-flow champagne, making mornings extra special. I celebrated my birthday here and it was the best I’ve ever had — unforgettable in every way. I especially loved the adult-only pool, which was so quiet and peaceful, a perfect place to unwind and soak in the surroundings. The Datai has left me with beautiful memories and I will definitely return. Highly recommended to anyone looking for a serene, luxurious getaway.

The Datai Langkawi lives up to every bit of the hype. Tucked into an ancient rainforest with views of one of the world’s most beautiful bays, it’s the perfect mix of barefoot luxury and nature. The staff are warm and attentive, and even the smallest details feel thoughtful. It’s also big on sustainability—you can feel good about staying here. Whether you’re lounging in a villa, spotting wildlife, or just soaking up the calm, The Datai is truly something special. All the awards? Absolutely deserved

The service was impeccable, and the environment was wonderful. There were plenty of activities, and my child and I unlocked quite a few new skills together. The only minor downside is that getting to and from town is a bit of a distance from the hotel, but otherwise, everything was fantastic.

The service was excellent. While the rooms weren't soundproofed well and didn't quite compare to a Four Seasons, the restaurant and overall service experience were truly exceptional.

The Datai is the best hotel I’ve ever stayed at. The stunning location, elegant rooms, and exceptional service made it unforgettable. I proposed to my fiancée here, making it even more special. I can’t wait to return to relive the magic.

Great experience in Datai Langkawi. The best resort hotel in Langkawi or in Malaysia i would say. Nice atmosphere if you like to be in a quiet and serene place. Great food and great hospitality. A special shoutout to Hafizam for the guest attending service and Gaurav from the The Dining. Also to the Botanists Ms Ezy. Will come back for sure!
