Langkawi is not our favorite place. We got bothered very much by the smell of the sullage. Even when you have dinner in a restaurant the smell can be abominable.
There is also not much shadow at the beach where you are protected by the sun.

Most of the time we traveled via taxi/cabs to get round. To try the local food, we ate along the street restaurants and ocassionally in the hotel.

We didn't do much as it was very hot although we did the Parasending on the Beach that was quite reasonable (120R for 2). The restaurants were all good especially the Sun Village down past Pantai Tengah.

We wera disapointed of Langkawi. The surrunding of our hotel were dirty, very few restaurants and absolutely nothing to do. OK for some lazy days but overall not a place to stay for to many days.

The beach was pleasant and clean. Water sports including laser and hobi cat can be hired from the Reggae Bar. They can also arrange snorkelling trips to Pulau Payer. This was some of the best snorkelling we had ever done, such a huge selection of fish and coral. There are plenty of places to eat within easy walking distance of the hotel, all good.

Taxis are very good value, drivers friendly and helpful. Kuah, the main city, is interesting and has good duty-free shops; Langkawi Fair is the best shopping complex. Remember to put in the decimal point when trying to get money from cash machines ie 200.00 ringits...we couldn't figure out why it wouldn't give us cash, but we were only tapping in 200.
A sunset cruise is a must, the Bon Ton restaurant five minutes from the hotel is excellent (with a very chic little shop), and golf on the Datai's course is expensive but breathtaking (carved out of rainforest). Pelangi will arrange your transport, and golf. We were told the craft centre was excellent, but did not have time to visit. Watch out for jellyfish in the water.

Langkawi is nice if you want to do nothing. The Orkid restaurant 5 minutes walking from Pelangi is OKay but forget the lobsters (expensive and tasteless).

Next to the hotel there is a small place where you can rent bikes, motorcycles and cars. They also arrange tours. We went on a mangroove swamp tour which was really great. The hotel resturant is one of the best in the area and quit close to the hotel there is another resturant called Shampor-Shampor which is well worth a visit.

The beach, Pantai Cenang, is where the resort is at is beautiful. You can take long walks and swim all day in its calm blue waters. If you find the resort food too expensive for your liking, there are plenty of food outlets within walking distance outside the hotel at reasonable prices. There are also groceries store and a supermarket nearby.
