Summary

The Datai Langkawi is a luxurious destination resort nestling in the heart of a 10-million-year-old rainforest, set against a backdrop of primordial mountains. It opened in 1993, overlooking the Andaman Sea and the white-sand beach of Datai Bay. Home to a wealth of wildlife, it offers each guest a magical escape, a crafted experience and connection with nature.

Designed by the visionary architect Kerry Hill and interior designer Didier Lefort, it is the most awarded resort hotel in Southeast Asia. Lefort has led the refurbishment to make the most of the striking natural surroundings. Flag bearers for the art of Malaysian hospitality, the resort’s team believes that luxury is defined by bespoke service that comes from the heart.

Location

Set on the northwestern tip of the lush tropical island of Langkawi, off the coast of West Malaysia, The Datai Langkawi is truly an oasis of tranquillity surrounded by ancient, virgin rainforest. Just 40 minutes’ drive from Langkawi International Airport (LGK), The Datai Langkawi offers guests an idyllic retreat to nature.
