“Primeval rainforest hideaway”
Kerry Hill's Aga Khan-winning stilted villas and open-air pavilions integrated into ten-million-year-old rainforest.
Guided naturalist rainforest treks, private Datai Bay watersports, multiple swimming pools, and championship rainforest golf.
Dedicated twenty-four-hour butler service for beach villas, bespoke forest concierge care, and deep canopy soaking tubs.
Tucked in ancient virgin rainforest along Datai Bay, forty minutes from Langkawi International Airport.
Rooms
Stilted timber villas nestle deep in the jungle understory, while beachfront hideaways open onto the sand with private plunge pools.
Wellness
Open-air treatment pavilions sit along a forest stream, offering traditional Malay Ramuan rituals and morning Mandi Embun bathing.
Backstory
Built set back from the coast to preserve ancient canopy trees, Kerry Hill's 1993 design earned the Aga Khan Award for Architecture.
Eat & drink
Dine on authentic Malaysian curries inside an open-air jungle kampung house, or order Thai elevated on thirty-meter stilts.
The neighborhood
Tucked along Langkawi's wild northwestern tip, Datai Bay is cradled by primeval rainforest, coral reefs, and the Andaman Sea.
