Four Seasons Langkawi

Langkawi is the largest of the islands within an archipelago, on the West coast of Malaysia. The Four Seasons resort is 30 minutes from the island’s main town.

Flanked by dramatic cliffs and tropical rainforest, the 91 Villas and Pavillions make the most of their exquisite natural setting. A stay in a Family Beach Villa will feel like home from home (albeit a wonderfully luxurious one!) with small, abundant gardens and spacious verandas. Lie back and watch the brood play on the perfect white sand, barbeque on the deck, or cool off in your private plunge-pool. For couples, the Four Season Langkawi offers lavish garden retreats in the Malaleuca Pavillions, finished with the classic luxury of the Villas, and surrounded by tropical plants.

You’ll feel like you’ve been on a round the world trip at Four Seasons Langkawi: reclining in the Rajasthani dining tent on the beach, sharing sumptuous Italian cuisine at the Serai, or simply enjoying the fresh and fragrant flavours of Malaysia. For more informal dining there’s a beach-side grill that serves fresh local sea-food, prime-steaks, wood-baked pizzas, and other Western favourites. Meanwhile, at the spa, the incredible choice continues with novel treatments including coconut heated crystals.

Langkawi island is a magical place to explore, steeped in local legend, and with a unique mix of rice-paddies, mountains, and ancient mangroves. The expert guides at Four Seasons Langkawi can take you on a mangrove safari, leading you through these tropical labyrinths and passing an eerie bat-cave on the way. Other activities include a trip to Underwater World - the largest aquarium in South East Asia - or for older kids, you can go zip-flying over the rainforest canopy. Back at the resort there’s snorkelling, scuba-diving, and a quiet pool reserved for adults.
