10/10 Excellent
"**A Wonderful Stay at Dayang Bay Resort, Langkawi** We had a fantastic stay at Dayang Bay Resort in Langkawi! While the hotel is a little dated in some areas, the wonderful staff more than made up for it. Everyone was incredibly friendly, helpful and welcoming throughout our stay. We stayed in the **Family Studio Suite, Sea View**, and were very impressed with how spacious it was. The highlight was definitely the amazing view overlooking the bay and the **Maha Tower**. It was absolutely spectacular, especially at night when the tower lights up — such a beautiful sight to enjoy from the room. Overall, we had a very enjoyable and relaxing experience. The combination of the spacious family room, stunning views and genuinely friendly staff made our stay memorable. **I would definitely recommend Dayang Bay Resort to anyone visiting Langkawi, especially if you can get a sea-view room!"

"Took my parents on a trip to Langkawi and I was worried about their dietary habits as they have a very limited palet and are very picky but Ahmed Akmal, Kirubakaran, Khairul and executive chef Aliff took extraordinary care of them and individually catered to their expectations making it an extremely positive experience for my parents. All the other staff in the hotel were also extremely friendly and had great personalities. The buffet spread was always wide and good quality and it’s a very short walk to the beach and has rooms with great views at an affordable price"

However noticed there’s no shower facility at the swimming poolside for guests to rinse themselves before going into the pool. Didn’t feel very comfortable with it. Hotel is centrally locked near many eateries and shopping malls."
