Four Season Island Resort - Langkawi Island

An archipelago of 99 islands in the Andaman Sea, Langkawi is a tropical paradise of lush foliage and dramatic cliffs. Set on Tanjung Rhu, one of the island's best beaches, Four Seasons Langkawi combines indigenous architecture with gracious service in a resort experience unmatched in Malaysia.

All 91 guest pavilions and villas offer the soothing sounds of the Andaman Sea and sensational views of sunsets beyond the beach. The generously sized guest accommodations are a fusion of traditional Malaysian design elements and contemporary resort features, with timber floors, soaring ceilings and large open verandas.

Inspired by the traditions of indigenous artisans, the decor reflects the vibrancy of the natural environment. Some villas and all lower-level pavilions include secluded outdoor bathing and showers that evoke the feeling of a gentle tropical rainfall.

Four Seasons Langkawi restaurant, Serai, which means “lemongrass” in Malay, celebrates the sun-drenched flavours of southern Italy and the Mediterranean. The creative menu features light, classic Italian specialties, using the freshest ingredients delicately balanced with aromatic herbs and spices.
The design of the restaurant, accentuated with stone and timber, perfectly complements the beautiful backdrop of lush greenery and emerald waters of the Andaman Sea. An open-air buffet and breakfast area seats up to 48 guests, while a separate dinner area on a higher floor features a 24-seat indoor dining room and an adjacent patio which seats 60.
Four Seasons Langkawi redefines the spa experience, providing total escapism that paradoxically encourages healing to arise from deep within the self. Four Seasons Langkawi nurturing and personal care ensure a renewing experience that honours ancient Eastern traditions, while celebrating modern Western sophistication.
