Where to Stay in Langkawi : Ambong Ambong Resort, Langkawi.

Cue singing in the forest- with mystical sound of the enchanted forest, birds chirping, wind blowing and the unggas chattering. That's how magical and blissful Ambong-Ambong Resort here in Langkawi.

I was very privileged enough to be given the chance to experience such wonderful place, that smell of forest and retreat. This secluded resorts are suite based-staying, with all units facing the immerse view of the sea from an elevated view of the hill. I saw hornbills too the other day!

When I was there, I've booked for the studio house/suite, considering how I am going to be staying alone and wanna have a retreat alone in Langkawi . The Studio suite I stayed on has the following features:

Studio (46 m²)

• King-sized or twin super single beds
• En-suite bathroom with separate heated shower
• Refrigerator, microwave oven and electric kettle
• Indoor settees and outdoor seating for lounging
• Air-conditioner and ceiling fans
• Oh not to forget their-in-bed continental breakfast (which they happily customized to my diet too!)

Every morning, I woke up to my fresh breakfast of Mueslies, fresh OJ and fruits. Doing nothing but reading while the birds serenating me, then I head down for a swim or so. Sometimes when Dr Baskaran from Ishan Spa has a Yoga session, he will invite me to join. That's how easy life is while staying at Ambong Ambong Langkawi. 

I guess you need that too now? ;)

On the same ground of Ambong Ambong Resort Langkawi is Ishan Spa, where they provide amazing arrays of spa treatments and retreats. Ishan Spa is definitely the best Spa in Langkawi!

 If you are hungry for some authentic Japanese food, the best Japanese food in Langkawi is the Unkaizan Japanese Restaurant. This award winning Japanese Langkawi restaurant is located just down the hill of Ambong Ambong Resort

Why should you stay in Ambong Ambong Langkawi? 

I personally believe that Ambong Ambong Langkawi offers more than just being a 5- Star resort, it's the foresty environment, postive cheerful people who works there(oh I miss the guy who used to drive me up and down the hill everyday, he is a chatty helpful young guy!) and the comfort of knowing that everything is very peaceful. It's a great place for anyone who needs a break from any hustle & bustle they have in life.

So, what are you waiting for, book your next flight out to Langkawi and book a stay at Ambong Ambong Langkawi- the Langkawi Rainforest Retreat!

Where to Stay in Langkawi: Fox Hill Resort, Langkawi.

When the hustle & bustle of Kuala Lumpur was literally killing me (I mean it’s nice to visit Kuala Lumpur but to actually LIVE there? I beg to move out. Haha) I bought a one way ticket to Langkawi Island and the rest was history. I wanted a place to continue writing my draft for my first book, a peaceful place where I can laze around and do nothing. I asked a local-expat friend Vanessa Workman and she instantaneously suggested Fox Hill Homestay and Wellness Resort.

I was skeptical at first; you know too many places that claimed that they are champion at wellness and all. So there I was standing in complete amazement; Fox Hill Langkawi is indeed a wellness retreat centre. I was in for a total cleansing of my soul and heartache. It is a resort that goes beyond just being a resort- it felt like going back home, a really peaceful one.

Being a solo backpacker as usual, I was suggested the Tree Top House. The house was used as a storage store for the rice collected; the Malaysian people called it Kepok Padi. In fact all the houses in Fox Hill Langkawi have histories and stories behind every door.

The tree top house I stayed in a magical place- the moment I walked in I was in total awe. Overlooking the once-used-to-be meteor crater now is a mesmerizing- glistering view of paddy field with the stunning canvas of green mountainous of Langkawi.

“Am I really on an Island?” I asked myself. 

A lot of people asked me where to stay in Langkawi, how the rate is and what’s the best resort in Langkawi. As I recalled my experience, I can’t remember any as the last time I was in Langkawi Island as I was barely 10 years old. Too young to even appreciate the beauty of travelling eh? Now that I’ve gotten the chance to revisit and sorta live here for a month, I totally suggest you stay at Fox Hill Langkawi. 

I would like to thank Maria for being such a dear soul to me, for showing me that how much bigger life is compared to what I’ve seen, to appreciate life and live every second that am given, to believe in myself and do what is best for myself. If a morning fog appears magically after a cold night, so how Maria wisdom is- rare and very effectuating and every word she said to me give a pool of thoughts to wonder about. – I left Fox Hill, Langkawi feeling a million times better and definitely a new person. It’s the magic of Fox Hill Langkawi.
