Stayed at Casa Del Mar - Langkawi, Malaysia.

Try the Ban Thai for a dinner one evening - it i a bit further down the road after Pelangi Beach Resort. The location is unique and you can tour traditional Malay houses.
Rent a scooter and tour the island - go to Tanjung Rhu which is the best beach. Take a tour in the rainforest and spot the monkeys - but watch out not to bring any smelly food with you in your bag because the small sweet monkeys WILL attack you!!!

Very cheap getting around there. Langkawi is a really a low-cost destination. They have fixed taxi rates, so you donīt have to bargain with the drivers and wonīt have the feeling of beeing cheated.

Stayed at Sheraton Perdana Resort - Langkawi, Malaysia.
|
Great place and cheap duty free products available. The Pulau Payar Marine Park is a must do and so was the cable car (not for the weak hearted). Beatiful locations and cheap local taxis can let you explore a lot of the island which is not very big.

Stayed at Tanjung Sanctuary Langkawi - Langkawi, Malaysia.
|
Car rental about USD15.00 per day. Nearby sights were good - the cable car is well worth a visit. Northern beaches of the island were extremely pretty.

Langkawi Island was a great place to visit. We used taxis to get around, and found them plentiful and easy to get, also very inexpensive.
We loved the restaurant at Casa Del Mar, also a nice little place down the road called Bon Ton and a great Thai restaurant 400 meters in a mangrove swamp called Barn Thai, we highly recommend this place not only for the walk to restaurant, but the great food and service.
We took the new cable car ride to the spectacular peak overlooking the island and loved it. Also took an evening cocktail cruise offered at the hotel and thourghly enjoyed it. If you're planning a trip to Malaysia, this island is a must.

For those who have time it better to rent a own driven transport and get the map of the island and experience the interesting places at your own sweet time.

Stayed at Datai Langkawi, The - Langkawi, Malaysia.
|
We recommend the Thai House, but you have to make reservations beforehand. As Taxis are not available near the Datai, you have to rent a car from the hotel.

Langkawi is excellent for a sun-and-bathing holiday. Nice tax-free prices on most items. Visited the aquarium and the recently opened cable car to the second highest mountain on the island, both worth the trip. The capital Kuha was a bit boring.
Consider using taxi instead of renting a car, better off if you don't want tour the entire island. Moody's Place near Langawi Village Resort is recommended for breakfast.

Stayed at Langkawi Village Resort - Langkawi, Malaysia.

Langkawi is a wonderful island to visit. This is better for visitor to rent a car and tour around. For island hopping, can go to the jetty straight away and bargain the price. This is better price than you take from the tour agent.
