"If you like closeness to nature, this the place for you. Squirrels, birds and monkeys visited our balcony during our stay. The glass walled villa offers amazing view of the forest in all four directions but if you prefer privacy, draw the curtains, which we didn't have to use. Given the location, expect some ants, mostly in the bathtub but they don't bite or bother us. The adorable resident dogs do bark intermittently at night so bring ear plugs if necessary. Complimentary pickup/dropoff service...
"Didi and his wife treated us nicely all the way and supported us with helpful information all over the trip and even beyond. The place was super clean and the breakfast superior. We even got a nice Motobike ride with our boy in the village.
They also rent bikes to trip around the island or support with long time taxi over the day."
"Nothing much around the facility, lagoon is muddy during the day, bug and mosquitoes get inside room.
I stayed over the water.
Air conditioner was cold
Shower floor was slippery "
"The room was very spacious since somehow they gave us a VIP room, but it was quite a bit out of date. The staff was unprofessional. They took half an hour to check us in, didnt give any voucher for breakfast (I booked a room with free breakfast), and doing something else on their phone while helping us. We have to find our own way to the room and the reception didnt even check our room when checking us out. Also, it was a little confused because we were not sure if we booked the room over the...

"The pool was the best part of it. Kids pool connected to the main pool and th epoolside bar was just ideal. Housekeeping was great, housekeeper Salim did a great job. Food was also really good."
"Our recent stay in July 2025 at Tanjung Rhu Resort Langkawi was truly exceptional and one of the finest resort experiences we've had as a family.
The room was amazing—spotlessly clean, well-furnished, and incredibly comfortable. The front desk team, especially Ms. Fiza, was respectful, humble, and made us feel very welcome from the moment we arrived. There was another gentleman at reception, unfortunately i missed his name.
We did face a small concern as there was no lift access to the 3rd floor, which was challenging for our family. Thankfully, Mr. Hakimin from the team was very understanding and quickly arranged a comfortable room on a lower level. His prompt support was much appreciated and showed the resort’s dedication to guest comfort.
Breakfast was a highlight each morning, offering a wonderful variety of Malaysian dishes—from freshly baked items to roti canai, custom egg omelets, and more. The entire team at the breakfast hall was warm and attentive. We were especially impressed when the General Manager, Mr. Hafiz, personally visited guest tables to ensure everyone was taken care of—a rare and thoughtful gesture.
The pool was another standout experience. It was clean, well-maintained, and perfect for relaxing with our family.
In summary, Tanjung Rhu Resort Langkawi provided top-notch service, warm hospitality, and memorable moments throughout our stay. We highly recommend it to anyone visiting Langkawi and would love to return in the future.

"Amazing place, with a true resort feel.
Beautiful pool, private beach kept clean, seaview room was perfect.
Staff we're so friendly & helpful.
Hiking around the island was awesome, we saw heaps monkeys, lizards, birds etc
Boat transfer to the mainland is frequent, if you can drag yourself from paradise "
"The place is beatiful, great pool and beach, close to town. This could be 10/10 if they only would maintain it properly, it would not take much. Its lacks maintence. "
"Great three night stay at The Bayou. Staff were polite and helpful with check in. We stayed in the Deluxe Super King which was modern, spacious and clean. The little snacks and drinks vouchers were a lovely touch. Air con worked very well with managing the temperature.
The aesthetic of the hotel was beautiful and all areas were well maintained. The pool was a great temperature and we never struggled to find sunbeds. View from pool is lovely, especially during sunrise.
The food at breakfast was varied. We also ate from the bar menu each afternoon and food service was available from the pool loungers.
Only thing I would like to point out is the gym was very small and only provides cardio equipment, with no weights on offer.
Overall a great stay, we would definitely recommend the hotel."
