AAbdullah AyedhRWonderful Stay at Rebak Island Resort
We had a wonderful stay at Rebak Island Resort & Marina Langkawi.
The location is excellent, peaceful, and very suitable for families who are looking for privacy and relaxation. The resort services were excellent, the rooms were clean and comfortable, and all the staff were very kind, helpful, and welcoming throughout our stay.
The private beach is beautiful, clean, and offers a great level of privacy, which makes it especially suitable for families. We also really enjoyed the food at the hotel restaurant. It was excellent, varied, and offered many good options to choose from.
I would also like to share one recommendation that could make the resort even better: it would be great to have more security cameras covering all areas of the resort, including the swimming pool, beach, rooms area, and walkways. It would also be very helpful to have lifeguards or safety staff monitoring the beach and swimming pool areas. This would make the resort feel even safer for children and give parents more peace of mind while their young kids are playing or swimming.
Overall, we truly enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend this resort to families looking for a quiet, clean, and relaxing island getaway.
GGuest UserI absolutely loved the hotel's natural environment. We saw a family of dusky leaf monkeys near our room's balcony, as well as large black squirrels. Hummingbirds frequently visited the balcony garden, and we even spotted greater racket-tailed drongos flying by. On our way back to the room after breakfast, we saw a lizard busily eating in a tree hollow. By the pool, we observed a family of oriental pied hornbills. We were even lucky enough to spot a family of wreathed hornbills on our way to the Thai restaurant. The scenery near the Thai restaurant is beautiful, and we saw white-bellied sea eagles catching fish and brahminy kites soaring over the sea. We joined the hotel's night walk and, led by our guide, saw a mother colugo with her baby, some gliding from tree to tree. We also saw fruit bats, scorpions, dusky leaf monkeys, squirrels, Tokay geckos, oriental pied hornbills, and more. The guide gave us detailed explanations of their habits, which was fascinating. The next morning, we went birdwatching and encountered the same guide. He actually remembered that we really wanted to find a Draco lizard yesterday and asked if we had found one. With his help, we finally found this flying lizard! We are so grateful to him!
MMUHAMMAD HAZIQ BIN IBRAHIMI had a wonderful stay at Ombak Villa Langkawi. The room was comfortable, the surroundings were beautiful, and the overall atmosphere made for a relaxing staycation. The facilities were great, and I truly enjoyed my time here.
However, there are a few areas that could be improved. The check-in experience was disappointing. Although I had booked my room four days in advance, I still had to wait almost an hour before my room was ready. What made it more frustrating was that no apology or explanation was given by the staff for the delay.
Another area that needs improvement is the Wi-Fi connection, which was quite unstable during my stay.
Overall, I had a great experience and would still recommend Ombak Villa Langkawi. With better customer service during check-in and a more reliable Wi-Fi connection, the experience would be even better.
TTatsiana ProninaThis is an excellent, slightly secluded hotel with its own large beach area, located at the end of a long sand spit. It boasts a gorgeous green territory and a huge pool with 4 sections, including one that's 2.5m deep. Breakfasts are decent, but there's not much meat – only chicken ham and sausages. Plenty of fruits are available, but they're simple ones like watermelon, melon, apples, and pineapple. There was some minor noise disturbance from a construction site next to the hotel. The rooms and furniture are a bit old but functional. The furniture is worn out. Across from the hotel is the fantastic Cactus cafe, where everything is delicious, from barracuda to spaghetti bolognese.
IitsnotpolishaEverything was great! The staff was really helpful and that significantly contributed to the quality of our holiday! Tasty breakfast, so many options to choose from.
CCalvinMCPWe stayed at one of the suites and it was right next to the salt water pool, wonderful that we can hop into the pool everyday! There was also sunset view and stars every night you can enjoy.
The hotel staff were very helpful and friendly. In particular the security guard at the parking was very nice to remind us to switch off our car’s lights at night.
The breakfast could have more options as we stayed for 5 days and eventually becoming a bit more repetitive on the menu.
Location was great. A few great restaurant across the street (a little more high-end). Highly recommend to go with a rental car to get around the Langkawi Island.
GGuest UserThe resort view is very beautiful, lots of nature around. Even though a shelly beach, the private beach is a big plus. Been visiting for 11 nights, if you need something (amenities, meal wise), just ask, the professional staff will deliver. Tide pool unfortunately was out of service, but renovations started before we left. Big swimming pool awesome, kids pool awesome! Just check sharp corners of broken tiles.
Assume due to humid warm weather, mould on the outside of walls and doors is an issue, but still not nice to see that no effort was made to wipe it off throughout our 11 night stay.
For all activities (mangrove forest tour, island hopping, cable car and the sky bridge etc), easy to organize via reception or private tour companies (do your homework, can get the experiences for cheaper).
Breakfast very diverse and yummie!
Kids playroom needs a thorough clean, lots of human hair lying around. Gym well set up with lots of equipment, reminder there is a jacuzzi and sauna free of charge to utilize.
Overall thank you once again for all the professionalism from reception staff, room cleaning services, restaurant staff, buggy drivers, kids club staff and the regular checkins by staff like Justin for making our home away from home stay very enjoyable! Hope to return soon in the future!
GGuest UserI recently had an incredible two-night stay at Resorts World Langkawi and the experience completely exceeded my expectations. The hospitality was outstanding right from the start because the security team at the private entrance made us feel incredibly safe. Every staff member we encountered was remarkably friendly and accommodating. Our sea view room was a major highlight with stunning views of the water directly from the balcony. The hotel dining is top-notch including a fantastic Indian-Pakistani and Middle Eastern restaurant that I highly recommend. We also spent time at the Salt Shack Bar enjoying their great menu of pizzas and steaks alongside very affordable beverages. The evenings there are truly special since an amazing live duo performs Tuesday through Sunday. Their music created a wonderful atmosphere and gave us a night to remember. The entire management team does an amazing job and we will absolutely return to Langkawi just for this hospitality.
YYaoyaobabaAfter arriving at Langkawi Airport, it only took about ten minutes to drive to the hotel, which was much closer than I expected. I was initially worried that being so close to the airport would mean noise, but I slept soundly every night and wasn't bothered by planes at all. The lobby is spacious and grand. There are two restaurants, Chinese and Western, located next to each other. The Western restaurant offers excellent sea views, and the Chinese restaurant has a wide variety of dishes. There are two swimming pools, and my kids loved them so much they spent half the day just splashing around. The hotel also has a private beach with fine, white sand that's very comfortable to walk on barefoot. The seawater is clear, and you can see small shells during low tide. The rooms are in two-story buildings, with four units per building, offering plenty of space and all the necessary amenities. If you need a buggy to get around the resort, you just call, and they respond quickly; the car arrives in about 5 minutes. The staff were all very friendly and helpful. Overall, it was a very pleasant stay, perfect for families with children.
NNiliudashuThis hotel was just a place to crash; we were out all day anyway, so we didn't expect much. The location is excellent, right in town. Across the street, there's a duty-free chocolate shop, and plenty of food options within a few blocks. It's also beachfront, so you can catch the sunrise. We booked a suite, which was spacious, but the facilities were quite outdated. The hot water was intermittent, and it seemed like there was no hot water at all late at night! I left my swim trunks in the room and called customer service to ask about them. I figured if they found them, I'd just take a taxi back from Berjaya to pick them up. The first time I called, a man answered and said he'd look for them. When I called again, a woman answered. I'm not sure if she didn't understand English or what, but she just mumbled and rambled for a while before abruptly hanging up on me. Since I was short on time, I just gave up and bought new ones.
The breakfast was mediocre, with limited choices. Just enough to grab a bite.
The gym is tiny and the equipment is old, but nobody supervises it, and hardly anyone uses it. You just swipe your card to enter, so it's practically 24 hours. It was sufficient for my workout needs.
The infinity pool has a nice view, and my kids loved it. There were a lot of Indian people diving and having 'doggy paddle' races, making the pool quite chaotic, and nobody seemed to be managing it. The Indian 'doggy paddle' is hilarious; it's not the first time I've seen it, I've seen it countless times now! I even wonder if it's some kind of Indian national art form? The key thing is, this stroke is exhausting and inefficient, yet they all seem to enjoy it immensely 😂
