TRAVEL

The Datai hotel, on the island of Langkawi, has all the hallmarks of an imperial residence. For over 15 years, the hotel has been a beacon of luxury, a jewel off the Malay coast.

Langkawi is an island with an exotic mix of virgin rain forest and tranquil beach. However, this is exactly the juxtaposition that has made The Datai the place to visit. It is quite extraordinary that a place as beautiful as Langkawi is not completely overcrowded with tourists. Romantics and nature lovers should stay in the villas nestled deep within the rainforest. Standing high upon wooden stilts, with cozy interiors and dark wooden shutters.

To get a feel for the landscape and culture of Langkawi, guests are encouraged to immerse themselves in the island's two great passions: nature and gourmet cuisine. One of the hotel’s greatest joys is the spa. Located deep within the rainforest and by a freshwater stream, these tranquility baths filled with rose petals are enjoyable, with an expert Abhyanga massage. You can also enjoy a walk on The Datai’s private beach.
