Rising from the Andaman Sea, Langkawi is a cluster of rainforest-clad islands, towering sea stacks and fishing villages, celebrated as Southeast Asia’s first UNESCO Geopark.
Here, meandering along a 1.5 kilometre (1 mile) beach, Four Seasons Resort Langkawi weaves through acres of beachfront botanical gardens dotted with palms and lotus ponds – revealing some of the archipelago’s most luxurious suites.
The Suite Life Highlights
Secluded at one end of the Resort’s mile-long beach, the Royal Villa is a magnificent 1,400 square metre (15,078 square foot) two-bedroom, three-villa abode flanked by dramatic limestone cliffs.
Unique artwork, Malay artifacts and gorgeous fabrics create an air of easy residential elegance while a large outdoor pool, huge open-plan lounge, spa room, expansive patio and maid’s quarters make it the perfect hideaway for large families or private gatherings.
At the Resort’s southern end, each of the two units of the Two-Bedroom Villa features a beautiful 22 metre (72 foot) private lap pool with wrap-around pool deck that spills onto lush tropical gardens.
Space is the order of the day in the stylish interiors, from the lounge with 42-inch flat screen TV to a dining room that seats six. Sleeping quarters feature large walk-in closets and marble-floored bathrooms, each with terrazzo soaking tubs for four.
A home away from home, each Family Beach House is accessed via its own quiet garden with plunge pool overlooking the Andaman Sea.
The large outdoor deck caters for open-air dining and daybed lounging, while two internal living areas are complemented by a four-person spa bath, indoor and outdoor tropical shower rooms, family-size walk-in closet and a seperate children’s bedroom with TV, PS3, beach toys, games and sandcastle-making kits.
Beach Villas are stand-alone, one-bedroom residences, sited just steps off the beach. Each has its own private pool garden and reflecting pond, verandah, private spa treatment room, large bathroom suite with raised terrazzo tub, and outdoor shower garden.
Beach Wilderness Highlights
Just minutes by boat from the world-renowned mangroves of the Kilim Karst Geoforest Park, Four Seasons Resort Langkawi combines artful Moorish design and all-pervading serenity with a wholesome connection with nature.
Stroll the mile-long beach to the Adult Quiet Pool (complete with private cabanas), multi-tier Family Pool and Water Sports Centre. Submit to Langkawi’s natural healing energies in The Geo Spa.
Cruise the animal-filled mangroves of Kilim Karst. Savour a hookah pipe on a Mughal swing at the Middle East inspired Rhu Bar.
Or hideaway with barbecues on the deck, tented dinners at the water’s edge, and bonfires on the beach.
Above all, revel in the freedom and flexibility to reflect and reconnect: with each another and the surrounding nature.
