"I would highly recommend Pelangi Beach Resort & Spa at langkawi. Our room was great. The service was excellent and I would particularly like to praise Leesa (greeter at the front of the hotel) for providing wonderful customer service. The location of the hotel is perfect. We booked a taxi for getting to things that are not a walk away (Best service +60 12-5699950) You can walk down the beach to shops or take the footpath. The beach is much more scenic at nighwith fire throwers, places to eat and drink (very ambient at night). Check out the "Ah Chong Beach Bar & Cafe" right on the beach and about 8 minutes walk from the hotel. The food at the hotel is also great. The Pelangi Grill does a great breakfast spread with a beach view and you can choose what you like. The dinner menu is also good. The lamb shanks were so tender and it was the best mashed potato and gravy. They also do a board that has two steaks, grilled chicken and two racks of lamb with vegies etc There is more on the menu but they were my two favourite.. It is designed for two and it is very nice. The shops are a short walk away. We filled a suitcase with the things we found there. Check out the places recommended to see. Also hire a taxi to see the "Dream Forest" Take a photo before they open the door that looks like a book. The Pizza Hut and Maccas at Langkawi are both good. We did everything but the parasailing and jet skiing. I would recommend you look up what is there and just tick it all off. Best holiday. "
