Set on the beautiful retreat of Langkawi Island, Westin Langkawi Resort & Spa is a five-star resort offering the pampered lifestyle that first encouraged foreigners to holiday in Malaysia. Media spokes-person for the resort Mohamad Nurhayati agrees, although she says this destination is designed to take the Malaysian experience to another level again."Langkawi Resort & Spa has several attractions for international visitors, not least its location," says Nurhayati. "We have our own private 500m beach front, within a sprawling property owned by Westin that covers over 42 hectares. At the same time it's only a few minutes from the shopping, cinemas, sights and cultural vibrancy of the township."
The resort reflects traditional Malaysian style, with contemporary comfort built in. The approach from the private jetty leads up to the main hotel. Beyond this lies a recreation centre, with a grouping of resort villas nearby. Adjacent to the villas, and opening onto the beach itself, is a comprehensive spa facility offering an array of treatments that include everything from an aroma stone massage to a Royal Thai massage and reflexology.
