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 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!

This is the best hotel I ever been. The moment on arrival until leaving, hotel staff always give their best service. They also provide anniversary decorations & cake in my villa. The beach is clean & it is private.

Excellent resort, probably the best we have stayed. Beach in the front and rainforest at the back. Lost of free activities and excellent food at the hotel. Slightly far from the other Langkawi attractions.

Very Good

Overall a great hotel.
The atmosphere, service and food are all very good.
However, it may not be suitable for families with children.
There is nothing around the hotel and no facilities for children, so they may get a little bored.
