Tanjung Rhu Resort

- Very clean, staff is constantly cleaning all areas - Great pool / beach, with a lot of sunbeds and breathtaking views - very friendly staff - Next to the mangrove tour which we recommend - Amazing big room with nice smart tv and movies - Great breakfast with a lot of options - Good pizza at the sportsbar, and good cocktails with happy hour from 17h-20h (cocktails 19.5RM each at happy hour) - Very peaceful and beautiful place

The scenery was amazing and the staff were friendly and helpful.

Not everyones idea of a holiday but we like to find tranquility away from people and surrounded by nature but with reasonable accessibility to explore the local culture. South East Asia is a favourite of ours but there are less and less places that are not now touched by sprawling tourism and its noise and concrete pollution. Lankawi is one of the last, easily accessible islands that is preserving its natural habitat while providing for visitors. The South of the Island is busy but the excellent Tanjung Rhu Resort, in the North, sits in the middle of what I consider to be the best beach on the island with the best landscape. Not only that, but the resort is right next to the extensive Kilim Geopark, a Unesco site and one of the best attractions of Langkawi. Even when full, the acreage of the resort means Tanjung Rhu never feels busy and, particularly on the adults only side, is always extremely peaceful. The pools are large and even the family pool is uncrowded as it spills out onto the beach and into the jellyfish free Andaman Sea. The breakfast choice is extensive and good quality and certainly set us up for the day. A choice of restaurants onsite or within a short taxi ride means you will never be tied to the resorts offering although, by choice, we enjoyed the evening room service more as we extended our stay to two weeks. The staff are friendly, respectful and always smiling, not unusual for this part of the world. A special thank you to Noor, one of the management, who looked after us excellently during our stay.

The hotel felt so relaxed with two gorgeous pools to choose from and a beautiful view from wherever you are. Staff were mostly brilliant, our room was huge, albeit all balconies quite small, and food in the various restaurants was good. We stayed 4 nights and wished we'd had a couple more, we could have got a taxi to some of the restaurants in the nearest village if we had, but with just 4 nights we were happy relaxing and staying at the resort.

So in the beginning I arrived quite early but the room wasn't ready however I was informed that I will be getting a room upgrade due to not enough rooms from the ones I booked, I had a bit late check in but the Senior Front Office Assistant Manager Hakimin Hamidon, have sent a sparkling wine to our room as an apology and that was a nice kind gesture 🙏🏻 The next day our flight got delayed and I wanted to extend my check out time which is usually with at a fees , however they were generous enough to have the late check out free of charge for us as a complimentary extension and as a consideration of our delayed flight!l. This has made our day ! and made us forget about the late check-in and made our stay exceptional and relaxing. Thank you so much to the kind staff and managers!
