Hidden Gem - Tanjung Rhu Resort of Langkawi

Have you ever imagined waking up to the sound of happy birds chirping, rustling of the palm leaves, and of course, the waves. Well this resort has all these. Just fly over 50 minutes from KLIA, you’ll enter this paradise called Langkawi Island, a legendary land. Journey from the airport to this hotel takes about half an hour. For me, I booked a rental car prior to coming here, and the vendor prepared the car at the airport. I love taking the first morning flight every time visiting this island, so I can have breakfast at Nasi Dagang Pak Malau, one of the best local breakfast. Then, I would normally go to the Langkawi Cable Car to enjoy the view of the island, looking to far end of the Andaman sea. After buying some snacks and drinks, my partner and I went straight to the resort. The location is rather secluded and deep into the pine forest, and we truly enjoyed the greenery. Checking in was fast. Please be mindful that there’s no lift at this establishment so you’ll have to walk up the stairs. It can be challenging to kids and elderly. We booked ourselves to a Suria Suite, and it was amazing! We had the garden and big pond view, but you can easily enjoy the perfect sunset everyday! The living, bed, and closet area are separated. The bathtub wall can actually be opened, and we could enjoy watching our favourite movies from the tub. I commend the bedding! The mattress was of the soft type, so as the pillows. We truly had good night sleep. The breakfast spread was amazing. They have sparkling wine too. So luxurious. There are two swimming pools here. I love the deep adult pool so much. Then resting on the deck overlooking the open sea. I would certainly come here again, for the value, and the location.
