Langkawi Padang Matsirat 3-star Hotels

I had a lovely stay at this resort. It was my 5th time visiting Langkawi- I’ve stayed in airbnb & classy places lake Frangapani & Pelangi. The value for price at this resort is excellent. They also have a huge breakfast. If you get a scooter - you’ll be able to explore the island easily and if it’s too hot it too late, a 12-15min grab ride will take you to Cenang. I would certainly stay here again

A modern oasis from which to explore the island. We toured Langkawi and this was our last hotel. Very handy for the airport and over a row of good shops - pharmacy, convenience stores and fast food KFC and Tealive. Also close to the best supermarket we'd found on the island ( didn't explore Kuah). Not the first one, that's a very hot shed beyond my ability to explore!) Staff friendly and the restaurant great for breakfast and dinner. A lovely pool on the roof ( we didn't actually use it as we were only there one day). Also a bar with a little library to exchange your holiday reading. Comfy beds, small room (ours) but clever use of space. There is car parking.

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.

Do you know the feeling when you come to visit the house of your friends? that's how you will feel in this place. Didi and Goy are the best hosts ever. The first time we arrived, Didi was waiting for us with a nice welcome and a map of the island, he literally knows every corner of the island and without his advice, we couldn't have had a great experience. The room was big, impeccable and so clean, Goy always make sure you would have everything in your room. We had awesome sleep. Nothing to say about the delicious breakfast they provide. It's a small place with only 4 rooms, perfect if you wanna be in a quiet environment. A bit far from Cenang beach but you can get a motorcycle rented from them for a few bucks, very cheap and the motos are almost new, Didi would make sure your moto is ready. What really amazed us is that both Didi and Goy took all the time they have to spend with us, sharing breakfast in the morning and making us feel at home. I am really surprised why this place is not full all the time, as I said, it's not a hotel for us, it's like coming to a friend's home. The only regret we have is not have been able to stay more days.

The trip was with elderly and kids. This place is more like an apartment than a hotel/resort, maybe they should improve on the outlook of the building, it looks kinda old compared to the resort next to it. Overall my stay here was quite pleasant and the unit I booked was spacious, it came with two bedrooms with separate toilets. There's only air conditioning in the bedroom, common areas such as the living room and kitchen are only ceiling fans, but this was fine as we spent most of the time outside. I think minor improvements on the furniture would be added value. The sound proof needs to be improved too as we could awake without alarm easily in the early morning, maybe due to it facing the main road. The staff were friendly and provided all the information to us. Location is just 10 minutes away from the airport, I would suggest renting a car for easy travel around because the tourist spots like Tanjung Rhu, Cenang Beach, Kuah Town, Cable Car, Skybridge are more than 30mins away from this resort.

Sabine and Andy were happy to pick me up from the airport. The house is only 5 minutes away. I stayed here for 31 days. The room is spacious and spotlessly clean. Sabine cleans the room every 3 days. The bathroom is also immaculate and the hot water was wonderful. Air conditioning was very good and efficient. The bed is very comfortable. I will miss sleeping in it! Andy and Sabine are wonderful hosts. Very friendly and helpful. I went out for dinner with them a couple of times and quite often sat and had a drink with them in the evenings. They even took me out on a sightseeing trip on the scooters. I arrived as a guest and left as a friend. If I ever visit Langkawi again I will stay here. I cannot recommend Sabandy House any higher. I’m not one for breakfast but the one morning I ordered breakfast it was wonderful. Wonderful place. I shall return. Thank you You made my visit to Langkawi very special.

The villa is in a quiet kampung place beside Rice field. I have a great time at Jebat room. Recomended for family fatgering with pools and bbq pit.

Got a cheaper deal, last room on last block 5. I need to walk a little far from the lobby but it's less noisy at night because it is far from the cruise jetty and the bar at centre court, more privacy. The view is great, the nights full of stars in November you can bring your own telescope. The restaurant is closed after 6pm and only has one bar open. Non halal, it also served alcohol. Have a game room to play dart, pool, foosball, and watch EPL. Buffet bbq and cruise dinner available nearby the jetty. Got an infinity pool and also a large children's pool. Good for family and group stay. It has free shuttle service to Cenang Mall. I suggest spending the evening at Cenang Beach, having dinner there and taking a grab around MYR 7-10 to get back to the Resort. Nightlife is happening more at Cenang Beach, but this resort is more private. You can get a cheaper Island Hopping Package (can buy online) at 9am-1pm at the nearby jetty too. Room amenities include a safe box (mine was out of battery that time), iron and iron board, hairdryer, mini bar, electric kettle, towel, toiletries and no bathrobe.

place is ok has their own beach，just room facilities are old but it’s ok, recommend pool terrace room is good for relaxing and go to swimming pool from the room directly. Breakfast is so boring , almost no changes everyday, I don’t know how the chef thinking about it . No any green vegetables for salads. Beach bar is not bad and edgeless swimming pool

The staff here was extremely friendly and helpful. There is a travel agency in the lobby open during work hours where you can get helpful information about tours, local beaches, restaurants etc that we found very useful. The hotel is also conveniently located next to several banks, eating places, supermarkets and Langkawi’s Kuah night market that occurs on Wednesdays and Saturdays. We had an ocean view room that gave us a view of the ocean and pool. Our queen room was spacious and so was the bathroom, which included both a shower and bathtub. The rooms were decently clean though I would say the focus was more on certain items or areas and not the whole room. Still, it wouldn’t hold us back from visiting again. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay!
