The Ritz-Carlton, Langkawi

Stayed here for 4 nights in May. Wish we stayed here longer as it was the best experience I have ever had while staying at a resort.

Every single staff member encounter was an absolute pleasure. From checking in to checking out we experienced nothing but quality.

The gym has heaps of equipment and was well maintained. There were 2 pools with plenty of sun beds. The resort offers buggies that the staff drive the guests around. We didn't wait more than 10 minutes for a buggy.

The resort offers plenty of filtered water, a great buffet breakfast and the rooms were cleaned at least twice a day. Please note you do pay a premium for resort facilities like lunch, dinner and activities but the quality is second to none. You can catch a grab for 9RM out of the resort into "the wild west" and eat do activities at a fraction of the cost.

Would I recommend coming here? Definitely

Just returned from an 8 day stay in this wonderful resort. Thank you to all the incredible staff that made our stay so fantastic. Having stayed at many top hotels around the world, I can say this was the best. If you want to reside in the rain forest, surrounded by monkeys, flying Lemur etc. Play tennis to a fully packed crowd finally (Monkeys) this is the closest to heaven you can get. Thanks again to Armin, who welcomed us so nicely.

On my fourth day here and I couldn’t wait to write a review. This is my favorite Ritz Carlton that I’ve stayed at and they’re my go-to resorts.

The staff is incredibly friendly and accommodating. The villas are stunning. The food at the restaurants is delicious. And be sure to not pass up the spa!

This hotel is seriously a gem and I’ve had a transformative experience here. I’ll be sending my friends and family here for sure.

Pro tips: respond to the email they send you ahead of your stay (and book spa treatments!). The staff are very helpful in making your visit a pleasurable experience. They helped us book a private mangrove tour and even decorated the room for my friend’s birthday.

Be patient with dinner service. Sometimes it can be a little slow, so just take the time to enjoy your surroundings.

Take advantage of room service. It’s reasonably quick and there are tons of options.

Having just returned from a wonderful week at Ritz Carlton Langkawi I can definitely say this resort has surpassed any similar I’ve stayed at before. The staff are fantastic and exceeded expectations in everything. As a solo female traveller they made me feel right at home. My villa with pool was incredible. The high standards of food and beverage never disappointed. I simply cannot wait to return very soon. I have discovered paradise here!

Fantastic overall vacation experience. The staff, service and politeness are extraordinary. 24h/7 effort to make your vacation a dream come true. The apartments and villas are spacious, stylish and well maintained. The restaurants are out of this world, every single one with its own style and a high end dining experience.

The place is fantastic! We loved the hospitality and the facilities. Since I was there for my birthday, they gave me a free upgrade! The view is stunning, everything is perfect, and the staff is incredibly friendly! The price is definitely worth it!

We stayed for 5 nights last week and the hotel and staff are absolutely amazing. Of all the hotels we have stayed at, this one undoubtedly had the best food. From the breakfast buffet, to all the restaurants, everything we tried was absolutely incredible. The rooms are breathtaking with really modern amenities but also still keeping in line with the Island environment. The pool setting is also one of the best we have encountered with stunning sunset views and really peaceful.

Special shoutout to Nurul who was so friendly and took out a lot of her time to speak with us and made our stay really enjoyable, as well as Hema from Horizon and chefs Law Zakiri and Hafiz at Langkawi kitchen (the cooking class was one of the best things we did)

Ritz Carlton Langkawi was without a doubt, the best resort I have stayed in. We booked 2 rooms as a family of 4 and enjoyed it thoroughly. Lalu especially was so helpful in making sure we had an exceptional experience. The rooms were very spacious & elegantly & thoughtfully-designed around nature. What was unexpected was the quality of food- Hai Yan, Langkawi kitchen specifically. Paula & Chef Jun Jie at Hai Yan made the dining experience memorable. I’m not one who goes for buffets and room service - the ones we had were excellently presented, highly educational (they had a placard introducing the special foods at the buffet), and so very tasty. High praise to the F & B director, the food was so consistently good we didn’t find any reason to leave the resort.
Even the buggy drivers were so helpful. Thanks also to (Goo?) who taught me about Malay weaving (I asked for Ketupat) and to Shana for our very fun cocktail mixing session at Horizon.

Even now we are planning when we should go next and which family members to bring along on our next visit. Thank you again, the Ritz Carlton Langkawi, you are a lovely team.

Amazing hotel, beautiful location, brilliant staff and great food. We spent a fantastic week spent there. Had a very nice private beach but unfortunately, the sea water wasn't very clear and didn't compare to many other locations in Asia (or other parts of the world) but that wasn't the hotel's fault.

We absolutely loved our stay at The Ritz Carlton in Langkawi! We spent New Year in the hotel and it was absolutely amazing! The organization of New Years eve was incredible and well prepared! The staff was very warm and friendly, the meals were delicious, and the accommodation was wonderfull. Thanks a lot for everything! 🙏

Our stay was great. The only recommendation I have is to skip the Langkawi Kitchen dinner buffet on Fridays, it was subpar. Everything else was fantastic from the rooms, to the service, to the staff.

I stayed there twice, for business reasons with groups of 10 people and we had such a great treatment, from the checkin to the checkout. Hospitality is at the best level, food is amazing with different types of region (the local options are delicious). The environment is wonderful with beautiful facilities, in the middle of the jungle.
I can definitely imagine what it would to stay as a guest and I hope to be back and enjoy it as vacation. World class, congratulations!

Spent 3days 2 nights at here on business trip and i must say that everything is excellent. The location also quite close to my other destinations. For the room, it's clean and spacious, incredibly comfortable too. Service also toptier with friendly staffs.

We stayed at the Ritz-Carlton Langkawi to celebrate my son's first birthday and we could not be happier with our experience. The staff were very friendly and accommodating. Rooms were thoughtfully designed and spacious. They had a surprise for my son at the Ritz club and when we checked in. We will definitely be back and will highly recommend this resort to all of our friends and family

Spent 4 nights in Ritz Carlton Langkawi. This was one of the most beautiful places we’ve stayed. Location is the best, closer to the Oriental village. Room was so clean and well designed.
Morning breakfast was wonderful. Lastly the staff- they know how to take care of their customers. Ms Nurul, Daniel were very helpful.
We’ll definitely come back

I recently had the pleasure of staying at the Ritz Carlton Langkawi, actually quite late of review. I stayed there in October 2023 for my anniversary. My experience was nothing short of exceptional. The service provided was top-notch, with a staff that exuded warmth and friendliness. The rooms were not only impeccably clean but also incredibly spacious, providing a luxurious and comfortable atmosphere. The attention to detail by the staff was remarkable, making me feel genuinely valued as a guest.

Moreover, the culinary experience at the hotel surpassed expectations. The food was not only delicious but also beautifully presented, reflecting the high standards of this establishment. Every meal was a delightful journey for the taste buds. I really loved the salmon on their breakfast menu!

I must commend the entire team for their dedication to ensuring a memorable stay. Special thanks to all Ritz Carlton team for their outstanding customer service, which added a personal touch to my time at the Ritz Carlton Langkawi. If you're looking for a blend of luxury, impeccable service, and culinary delights, this is the place to be. I can't wait to return!!!!

The Ritz Carlton Langkawi is the best hotel i’ve ever stayed in.

In short, the room is amazing, great views and very thoughtful design. The service is above and beyond, the staffs made the experience so missable. Food is excellent, the restaurant is professional, excellent food and service. 10/10 recommend, you cannot go wrong here.

Room
We received a free upgrade to the Suite because we book through AMEX, the upgraded room has very modern design, with a lot of natural materials like marble, wood and crystals. The layout is spacious, with many doors and dividers somewhat hidden for you to explore. There were fresh fruits with snacks awaiting us which was a nice touch. The balcony is large looking out at sea, with occasional birds and monkeys visiting, they are quite afraid of humans so they don’t pose any threat. The bathroom is very large and luxurious. A lot of good little details like the retro radio speaker, bath salts and amenities.

The service is exceptional. Every single staff we encountered blessed us with big smiles and hospitality that’s above and beyond. They were no doubt passionate and extremely friendly. They were also very personal, having small conversations along the way, giving recommendations as well as answer questions. This level of service and hospitality is beyond any 5 star hotels i’ve stayed in, and the service is one of the key reasons for my future return.

The experience is utterly fantastic, thank you to the team at Ritz Carlton Langkawi for offering such a memorable experience, and huge salute to the staffs for going above and beyond for their wonderful service. I am egged to return for my next holiday escape.

I came to to the Ritz Carlton Langkawi for dinner with my friends and I I was treated by a wonderful array of dishes that was prepared by the head chef .

But for me , one person stood out even more in regards to the service i received . I would like to give a special shout out to our waiter , Tonguy ( from France)

He was incredible in terms of his service and recommendations , he was quick on his feet to take the orders , was very attentive and was explaining the dishes really well.

The marker of great service for example was making sure our drinks / water was filled prior to asking which shows a quick attention to detail , that that is exactly what he did !

He had a warmth persona and friendly gesture to her which i truly admired. And the service received was truly first class.

Thank you Tonguy for being a wonderful reflection of the finest of service the hotel has to offer.

In an industry with a high turn over , pressure and strong demands from various customers I can truly see the passion and dedication of the job from him , and the food served combined are one of the many reasons i will be coming back to this wonderful establishment to dine and keep introducing , recommending family and friends to come

Stunning, extraordinary experience that we are still having in this beautiful dream place….
I don’t have even one bad moment - neither with the all staff of the hotel (they are overwhelmed, they are just so kind - that it’s not even a joke)
Neither with the restaurants and beverages experiences ….
The beach - absolutely stunning, clean….wild and just all the views are speechless

I hope there isn’t a word limit for this review because I can’t speak highly enough of the Ritz Carlton Langkawi. I have visited this hotel for two consecutive years and I didn’t think it was possible for them to out-do themselves. The rooms are large and very luxurious, I love the new diptique products in the shower. All of the food was incredible from breakfast at Langkawi kitchen to horizon, beach grill and even room service. The gym is great, good variety of technogym equipment, free weights and a studio. The staff were amazing, I was happy to see so many familiar faces upon returning. Ramy, Hassan, Jenni and many others were a delight and very helpful organising activities both inside and outside of the resort. The spa is also a must, Shan did my treatment and if you like a firm massage she is the one to ask for! The hotel did a great job of organising a party and fire works for the new year, I loved the 2024 hornbill chocolate delivered with the NYE turndown service. Would highly recommend this hotel, I’m sure this won’t be my last visit.
