The 121 accommodations at The Datai are divided into three different levels within the resort. The majority of these belong to the Canopy Collection and are located in the heart of the complex, near the spectacular pool, The Dining Room, and the Lobby Lounge. The Rainforest Collection consists of several beautiful villas built on stilts above a stream, surrounded by jungle. Just like the Garden and Deluxe rooms of the Canopy Collection, you will stay in an elegant natural oasis with contemporary comfort. The villas of the Rainforest Collection offer twice the space, with 123 m². If you are looking for the ultimate sense of privacy and exclusivity during your stay, then book a Beach Villa. These accommodations are your home away from home, a very spacious yet cozy villa with a private pool and comfortable sitting areas, fully enclosed and located by the beach.

The Datai Langkawi offers a diverse selection of restaurants and dining experiences, inspired by culinary traditions from Malaysia and around the world. The restaurants occupy some of the most beautiful spots within the resort, with spectacular views that enhance the serenity of the natural surroundings. The award-winning Gulai House is built in traditional Malay kampung style and serves authentic dishes surrounded by rainforest. The Pavilion appears to float above the greenery on tall wooden stilts and offers traditional Thai cuisine in an open-air setting. The elegant The Dining Room is the main restaurant where you can enjoy a wide variety of culinary options throughout the day. It is located next to the pool. For a more casual atmosphere, The Beach Club serves a menu with lighter snacks and fresh seafood from the grill.

The Datai has no less than three swimming pools. The adults-only pool is located near the main building and offers a spectacular view of the rainforest, the Andaman Sea, and in the distance, the island of Tarutao on the horizon. The iconic pool is surrounded by white umbrellas and comfortable loungers. Adult guests aged 16 and over are welcome to use this pool. Additionally, just a few steps from the beach, there is a family pool, complete with a separate toddler pool for the little ones.

The Datai Langkawi Spa is located alongside a winding stream, surrounded by the sounds and subtle aromatic scents of the rainforest. With unique and personalized spa treatments in this natural environment, you are invited on a sensory journey of overall well-being, relaxation, and rejuvenation. Focused on aligning wellness with nature, the treatments specially developed for The Datai incorporate healing herbs and plants that grow in the rainforest, embracing the traditions and philosophies of Malay culture (Ramuan). In addition to five treatment villas offering Ramuan-based spa treatments, VOYA’s innovative skincare provides the ultimate holistic home care, creating a balance of inner health and outer radiance.

So pristine as the ancient rainforest that borders its shores, Datai Bay’s secluded piece of paradise in Langkawi has earned the title of one of the Top 10 Beaches in the world according to National Geographic. The white sand beach curves in a crescent shape around the bay, creating a stretch of sand 1.5 kilometers long and 30 meters wide at normal tide. The warm yet refreshing turquoise waters of the Andaman Sea offer excellent swimming conditions and opportunities to participate in various watersports, including snorkeling, sea kayaking, windsurfing, catamaran sailing, and yachting.

At The Datai, great emphasis is placed on the surrounding nature. The resort is designed to preserve the natural environment as much as possible and to minimize its impact. At the nature center, guests are inspired with stories about the flora and fauna, the medicinal properties of many plants, and the healing power of nature for overall health. Experiencing nature can be done in many ways. You can walk yourself along one of the many trails or go on an adventure with a specialized guide. Younger children are introduced in a playful manner to spot unique animals and plants.

Nature is at the heart of The Datai’s DNA; it is an integral part of what makes the resort unique on Langkawi. The stunning natural surroundings of the sea, mangroves, and ancient untouched rainforest form the foundation for the range of nature-related experiences combined with holistic wellness programs. The Datai is committed to conserving and strengthening nature and reducing negative environmental impacts. The ‘Datai Pledge’ has evolved into a robust program of initiatives with the sole purpose of creating a sustainable environment for the future. This pledge includes sustainability initiatives related to operations, land, sea, and youth. These four elements correspond to the four pillars of our program: Pure for the Future, Wild for the Future, Fish for the Future; and Youth for the Future, respectively.
