The Datai Lamgkawi is regarded as one Malaysia’s finest luxury resorts, and is located on the tiny island of Langkawi on the North West Coast of the country. The mixture of rainforest and beach is one of the main things that defines this award winning resort, spectacular views of the sea, privacy and direct access to the golden beach provide the ingredients to make these new villas, a must stay.

The new luxury villas comprise of 13 one bedroom villas, each of which is 218 square meters having sea, beach and pool views from most of the rooms and one 475 square meter two bedroom villa suitable for two couples or indeed a family.

One of the most spectacular of the new villas features is the large and luxurious bedroom. This overlooks a private pool appraoching 40 feet in length, you also benefit from a spacious en-suite with twin vanity units, the wonderful choice of an indoor or outdoor garden shower, open plan living/dining room opening onto the pool terrace. The terrace has a timber sun deck and lounge are that leads onto a lawn which in turn leads onto the beach.

The new villas provide easy access to the many facilities in and around the resort. The Datai boasts two large pools (the main pool and the beach club pool), numerous places to snack and dine and the Spa at The Datai Langkawi offering a range of exquisite treatments.

Guests at the Datai’s new luxury villas have the opportunity of bespoke meals prepared by the high skilled chefs within the privacy of their own property, or should they wish they can enjoythe ambiance of the Dining Room located off the main resort lobby.

Alternatively a private dinner in a open-sided marque directly on the beach has always been a popular option for The Datai Langkawi’s guests, particularly for romantic occasions. Likewise spa treatments may be taken at The Datai’s award-winning Spa, serenely positioned over naturally running-water in a lush tropical setting, while massages and some beauty treatments may also be enjoyed within the beach villa confines.
