The location is near to Sky Bridge, 30mins to Cenang, but it’s okay as we have rented car. The room is value for money, but the swimming pool is quite normal, different from shown in website photo. The choice of breakfast is different for 2 days, at least we won’t eat the same food for 2 days. Limited parking, can park at roadside.

We spent 7 days there. To understand why this place is so convenient it is necessary to understand Langkawi specifics. Few truths about Langkawi: 1. All beaches even most photographic are not suitable for swimming due to not transparent and often stinky water. About few exceptions later. 2. Without own transportation you are not able to see most of interesting places. No public transportation. Rent a car or scooter for 60 rm or 30 per day (respectively). We had rented automatic gear small car for 7 days near the Villa. Langkawi is a small island but not for walking or cycling (no respect for racers). Knowing these facts it doesn’t matter so much where you live! The Villa Abadi is a reasonable choice. Price to facilities ratio is really good. Clean swimming pool with probably too warm water gives refreshment and swimming is possible (10 m long). Rooms rather small but clean and carefully designed. Staff is helpful and friendly. Parking lot wide enough. Breakfast is limited but not boring. Few recommendations: 1. SkyCab - go up for stunning view 80 rm - 6 km from the hotel 2. Seven Wells waterfalls - free but parking costs 2 rm, worth the effort to go up to the top waterfall which is relaxing place with cooling natural pools. 7 km from the hotel 3. Pantai Chenang Beach - lively place with main promenade along Main Street. Restaurants, shops, vacation atmosphere. Good parking for cars on the backyard of Chenang Mall - 16 km from the hotel 4. Jetty ferry port with park and giant eagle statue - 22 km from the hotel 5. Galleria Perdana - a bit odd but impressive museum kind. One of Malaysian Prime Ministers has collected 9000 gifts from different people worldwide. 3000 of them are here. Building itself is worth to see, in fact 3 different buildings. 10 rm. around 20 km from the hotel. 6. Temurun waterfall on the north side of the island - free entry and impressive rock. The highest waterfall on Langkawi. 7. Beaches - as said before, many of them are spectacular however not suitable to swimming. Relatively clean are beaches on the north- east end. Expensive dream beds - 50 rm for pair with parasol. Probably similar or even better are beaches on north-west but are part of private properties. Black Sand beach is rather boring - also on the northern shore. Summary - good choice if you are not too fussy.

This resort is quiet and perfect for those who look for a moment of peace and relax, , the big garden, the sunset view and the sound of birds are all pur moment of relaxation…no seining in the beach it’s full of mud…the swimming pool is good but it didn’t like the fact that some guests swim with their clothes even the pool rules are not allowing that. Breakfast is variant and good…stuff are nice and friendly…service is good…rooms are spacious and clean…you have nothing around but the service rice of food in pool restaurant are not expensive..you can eat a very big seafood pizza with only 37 RM.

2nd time visiting the Danna and it doesn't disappoint again. Planning for our stay was easy with the Danna concierge who coordinated on extra beds and activities like the jet ski trips Good - Amazing buffet breakfast always starts off the day well..mix of western and local and on demand items like eggs, waffles and pancakes - the new dinner buffet was a great new addition with the live BBQ station even though the protein selection was limited - Countess suite was amazing with the jacuzzi bathroom and the viceroy seaview room was amazing also Negative - slightly inconsistent with the housekeeping, sometimes they would forget to vacuum - slight mishap with the room service waiter entering when we requested a female attendent. They claimed the protocol was to enter and serve the food after 3 knocks but since we requested female that should not be the case Beyond that the service and polish in food and rooms is what brings us back. Highly highly recommended.

Well this hotel isn’t perfect but they really care about their customers. It’s near the airport but about 15 minutes to cenang beach where everything happens(party and all) . The pool is huge and the view is amazing. Also the cook from the from the hotel cook better food than outside I think 😂😂. And the employees are the nicest and most helpful people ever. For those who are too picky you might find the hotel a bit old especially the bathroom design a bit weird but for those who don’t mind it is really worth it. And they have their own beach as well

The best hotel in Langkawi very friendly and welcoming. Always asking you how the food, the service, the room, they handled everything smoothly...

We have visited and reviewed The Datai many times and the fact that we continue to come back year after year despite the very long journey speaks volumes. The setting is stunning and the staff are excellent, very friendly and helpful. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and were happy to chill out and relax surrounded by nature. We have visited many super properties in other countries and enjoyed them very much but The Datai ticks all the boxes for us and feels like our idea of paradise! Over the years we have stayed in most room categories and they are all great but our favourite is a Rainforest Pool Villa. Relaxing in the pool watching the monkeys, birds and butterflies whilst listening to the sounds of the forest and the stream is just sublime. We visited in April and were prepared for rain as the dry season has ended but we had beautiful sunny weather for the vast majority of our 10 day stay. We had 3 days with rain in the late afternoon/early evening but these passed quickly. At this time of the year a lot of flowers are in bloom and many trees are in fruit thus attracting more wildlife. We thoroughly recommend the Spa and enjoyed massages during one of the rain showers which added to the relaxation! The Datai is the most eco friendly hotel we have ever been to and a visit to ‘The Lab’ is well worthwhile and educational as well as fun! We also ‘learned how to be naturalists’ at the Nature Centre and placed hidden cameras in the forest to help monitor the behaviour of the wildlife. This was a fascinating experience and well worth doing! There are many other things to enjoy but we just stuck to our lovely pool and ventured out mainly to eat. We didn’t even go to the beautiful beach at all! The food was great everywhere we ate and if the hotel is busy the Beach Club is a great, peaceful alternative for breakfast although it is just ‘a la carte’ with no buffet option. As every year some old friends amongst the staff have left and we miss them, but new stars always emerge! Thanks to everyone but we must mention Yoon, Azmir, Edy, Gunawan, Shaiful, Izzie, Amelia, Wendy and the legendary Sivagaran!

I was here during LIMA 2023. Near to airport. Save time and transport cost by walking to exhibition hall. The best stay ever! The environment was pleasant and welcoming. Both check in and out were professionally handled and easy. I loved the Wings Afternoon Tea at the Wings Lounge& Jazz. It's really cosy and relaxing after spending hours in LIMA hall. I can even watch spectacular scene's of flights cruising through the viewing deck. And of course I enjoyed the most my drinks by the pool bar. I would definitely recommend this luxury resort in Langkawi to my family and friends in USA.

I really don't know where to begin. I booked this hotel because this was our first vacation post covid and also to celebrate a milestone wedding anniversary. The hotel is looks very dated. The reality do not match the pics. At check in, we were told that there is no wifi in the room, and that we would need to pay a deposit for a router. There is no restaurant at the hotel. if we needed breakfast we needed to place an order for the brekkie the night before (before 8 pm), and the food would be served to us in our room. We were given the option of going to the next hotel to use their restaurant if we wanted. As we entered our room it smelled very musty. The bathroom had a very bad smell (urine). There was a pair of used/dirty socks drying the the bathroom (possibly of the previous guest). The shower area had a part of the wall which had some stones/rocks on it. There were droppings of some creature nestled in the crevices between the stones/rocks. On day 2 in the morning, I found a bat flying around in the bathroom. I have concluded that the bad smell and the dropping could’ve been bats who frequent that area in numbers. The mirror meant for shaving had only the stand, no mirror. The rubbish bin in the bathroom was cracked at the bottom. On a couple of days, housekeeping didn’t leave any face towels (day 1) and bath mats (day 4) in the bathroom after they cleaned up. There were cobwebs in the bathroom & behind the curtains in the room. The rollout bed for the kids didn’t have a mattress that fit the size of the rollout bed. It was a smaller one and seemed like it was from a baby’s cot and was just made to fit in there. The room doesn’t have a phone to call the reception. The only way to communicate is through WhatsApp. There are no staff in sight for the most part. Every time we passed by the reception, there was no one at the counter. We saw some staff around the property over the last 2 days of our stay. The resort doesn’t have a spa as well. The structure seemed to be in a dilapidated condition and in high need of repairs and refurbishments. While it was visible that some rooms were getting renovated, I couldn’t fathom why we were given this dilapidated room. All in all, we paid for our room and for the use of a swimming pool. This is not a resort if you have no amenities, it’s as good as a BnB. I would pay the amount I did for a BnB. If I had known that this “resort” doesn’t offer any of these facilities, I wouldn’t have booked this place at all. This experience ruined a bit of our holiday.
