"Great villa in a remote location. We had the place to ourselves and the villa manager Raid was very attentive, had lots of information for us and nothing was too much trouble. Would recommend hiring a car due to location. Breakfast included and there’s an all day menu. We ate at the neighbouring The Datai hotel which Raid arranged for us and he also took us there and collected us. "

"I would absolutely stay here again. The breakfast was tasty with an excellent variety. The room was clean and I loved the lighting options which maybe sounds silly but after a long day it helped to wind down. Every staff I encountered was kind and helpful. The international plug was a nice surprise. Steps away are some food options and a convenience store. The property was close to the airport and away from the high traffic areas which is my preference during a vacation. "

"This is a brand new hotel, unfortunately who ever built it didn't know what they were doing. Upon arrival the hotel looks very impressive, however in the rooms, the doors don't fit, with large gaps all around, letting in traffic noise and also lots of bugs. Room was dirty and full of ants, the wash basin drained onto the floor, I assume a blocked pipe, and my 2 minute shower flooded the entire bathroom. When I checked out 2 hrs latter, the room was still flooded as no water had drained away.Also...

"Padimas provides very nice, comfortable houses for rent at the north end of Langkawi Island. This is a perfect place to stay if you want to relax and get some peace and quiet, as it's away from everything. The flipside of this is that you'll have to drive to get anywhere. In terms of service, they are very helpful about providing anything you need. Make sure to contact the owner and let him know what time you'll arrive."
