Sleep amid a centuries-old tropical rainforest on the “mystical” island of Langkawi, courtesy of the Andaman Langkawi – about as far as you can get from civilization without getting stranded. This jewel-like resort, jutting from a Langkawi hillside overlooking a cerulean blue sea, combines elements of its setting – wood, fabrics, glass – without coming off as even a little bit rustic.
Instead, sophistication rules, especially in the rooms: bright colors, light, and discreet gadgetry reign. Lanai rooms include sunning decks, and all suites have large balconies and private bars. If staying in your room is a bit too “Miss Haversham”, check out the resort’s very own 18-hole golf course, get to the spa, or go on a bird-watching expedition.
All this activity will work up an appetite. The Restaurant, next to the pool, serves western and pan-Asian cuisine at all times of the day. The Japanese Restaurant’s menu has teppanyaki counters. The dinner-only Beach Barbecue Terrace provides grilled meals, al fresco.
Situated on the mystical island of Langkawi between the majestic Mat Cincang Range and the deep blue Andaman Sea, The Andaman is built in the middle of a virgin tropical rainforest. Centuries-old trees, many with huge buttress roots and jungle vines, envelope this resort, creating a tranquil and secluded retreat away from civilisation. Designed with Malaysian architecture, The Andaman overlooks the pristine waters and white sandy beach of Datai Bay, making it the ultimate luxury getaway location.
