The Datai is in an idyllic location and has friendly and efficient staff. As befits a top class hotel, the facilities and rooms are excellent and maintained to a high standard. The bars and restaurants are of a particularly high standard, and I was particularly pleased to find free wireless internet connection. I have would have no reservation recommending the Datai to anyone looking for a top end vacation.

This was a great retreat in the middle of the rainforest. It has some of the best service I have experienced in the many hotels I have stayed in. If you are not as green as you would like and you have an interest in the planet we live in but still want the luxury of a splendid hotel..........this is the answer. There is nt doubt we will go back. Brian

My husband and I are living in KL. 3 nights at the Datai was a lovely respite from the city of KL. The service at the hotel was top notch, and the staff were lovely and helpful. Although expensive by local standards the food was great and a welcome change from the Malaysian food one often finds at resorts. The setting was perfect and we enjoyed staying at the resort. We enjoyed the benefits of being in a rain forest but with an easy walk to the private beach. Langkowi is a great island to drive around and when we return we still have plenty more to see. We shall definitely stay here again and are likely to be most tempted when we can get favourable rates due to it not being peak season. We also enjoyed the nature walk with the resident expert and wish to return to do the night walk.

Members of staff do not speak good English at all (do not even try to make themselves understood - even when they realize they are not understood), food selection: average for a five star hotel, Service overrated.

We had a great stay at the Datai as part of our honeymoon. Yes it's pricey, but the room is beautifully decorated (if quite minimalistic) and the bathroom is lovely too, with double sinks. We had a pool villa, which was v. luxurious, but I think if I was staying at the Datai again I would go for a superior villa. The reason for this is that the pools at the Datai are so nice that we tended to use them rather than our own, which was shaded by trees. Although we didn't have children, we preferred the bottom pool (the top pool is for over 18s) which had more atmosphere and was practically on the beach. The service was amazing, which made you feel better about the money you're paying, and the staff couldn't be more helpful. The food was also fantastic, and the Thai restaurant on the top floor is one of the most beautiful restaurants we had ever been to. As the Datai is in the middle of the rainforest, we had monkeys running round the side of our pool, and saw a flying squirrel crawling up a tree while we were having our dinner, and there are the usual mozzies to contend with. I would definitely recommend splashing out on the Datai for a couple of nights, but if you're looking for nightlife, or even a bit more atmosphere, I would only stay here for maybe 3/4 nights, and spend the rest of my time down town on the main beach, maybe at the Casa Del Mar. They really do make a fuss of you here though, so it is a treat for honeymooners.
