Virgin Holidays View
Setting new standards of luxury, the Datai Langkawi is simply drenched in glamour with world-class facilities at your disposal and a stunning film-set location. Backed by the magnificent Mat Cincang Mountain Range and overlooking the Andaman Sea, the hotel is home to one of the region’s most exclusive 18-hole golf courses. There are also 2 swimming pools to choose from, the upper swimming pool boasting views across the hillside and for adults only whilst the pool nearer the beach is for families to splash about in. If you feel in need of some pampering, look no further than the hotel’s spa, beautifully integrated into its lush rainforest surrounds. A comprehensive menu of exquisite treatments includes the renowned Datai Massage and a Bamboo and Ginseng Body Polish, both leaving you feeling utterly relaxed. If you’re in a romantic mood, treat yourself to the Love Bath Ritual instead, complete with love potion and rose petals! Water sports can be found in abundance down at the beach plus there’s a state-of-the-art fitness centre and 2 floodlit tennis courts. After a busy day, relax in one of the hotel’s restaurants. The Beach Club Restaurant is one of the four restaurants available, located by the beach serving Mediterranean and International cuisine. There’s the Dining Room for international/Malaysian delights or head to the Pavilion in the heart of the rainforest for dining al-fresco on Thai cuisine. For that special evening, there’s the Gulai House, again in the rainforest and accessed via a traditional ‘Titi’ bridge. Serving Malay and Indian dishes, you can opt for dining traditionally in the Nobat style (sitting on cushions on the floor) or at table and chairs. Every Sunday, the Gulai features traditional music and dance enriching the already magical atmosphere!
