Is The Datai Langkawi good? Overview, pros and cons
Staylist AI overview · based on 8 public guest reviews
“The Datai's rainforest retreat”
The Datai Langkawi is a master-designed rainforest resort guests call a trip highlight — comfortable timeless treehouse rooms, a clean private beach some call Langkawi's best with many water activities, abundant wildlife without bug trouble, thoughtful touches like children's welcome desserts, afternoon chocolates and beach ice cream, and super attentive staff. One thorough dissent though: the spot is remote, dining and wine ran steep on a supposedly duty-free island, and the Ritz-Carlton struck them as better located.
