Langkawi Holiday - Sep 4-16

Hi anyone,

Should have blogged this earlier - but with site issues and the holiday, not much chance.

We recently went on holidays to Pulau (Island) Langkawi in Malaysia. Langkawi is a group of 99 islands (I think 1 only inhabited) on the north western Malaysian coast, right on the border with Thailand.

We travelled with two other couples spending 5 days/4 nights at the Four Seasons resort, followed by another 7 days/6 nights at Tanjung Rhu resort.

Four Seasons is very nice and recommended. It's a newish resort with luxuriously appointed rooms (even the basic Lower Melaleuca we had), super comfortable beds and even has a an outdoor shower/bath - very nice. Tanjung Rhu has been a long-time favourite, this our 4th time there - it too is luxurious though the rooms are getting a little run-down now and beds not as comfortable - but nothing to stop us from going back. :)

Both resorts feature at least two pools (drinks/dining there too), three main restaurants each, gyms and spas. Rose enjoyed the spa at both hotels, while I had a massage at Tanjung Rhu - nice. Both hotels also offer non-motorised water sports and beach activities. So there is plenty to do other than swimming/sunbathing/reading/eating.

As for the weather, we had a few storms, but nothing that would ruin a holiday.

Click the links and checkout the resort websites - both are recommended. Also, I've uploaded the photos we took, so feel free to browse our photo album.
