Rebak Island Resort & Marina, Langkawi

On arrival were 1st off the boat and 1st to reception. 45 mins later, we were finally checked in after all other guests had already been given their keys and were taken to their rooms. The check in process was a disorganised shambles. We also had issues with the boat transfer back to the island one evening. there was space on a boat for my wife and I but we were told to wait a few minutes until the next one departed. they had just started boarding when a large group including other guests who rocked up, straight out of a taxi and walked straight on and it was full before we could board. a couple of minutes wait turned into a 30 minute wait with 2 boats leaving without us. by way of apology for the issues we experienced, the took approx 40 MYR off the bill. barely enough for 1 cocktail. so generous the resort is lovely but I would not recommend staying here.

Apart of being the highest category of room selected it the noisy because of the wodden ceiling above all the guest roaming around in their room was creating a lot of disturbances, also they haven’t maintained the furniture & toilet properly. The outdoor, the view & the pool were pretty decent.

Beautiful resort in fabulous location

Absolutely loved Rebak, from the journey across on the boat, to the transportation to the hotel. Beautiful and tranquil hotel with staff go above and beyond.

Resort in its day would have been great. It needs some $$$ spent on it !

Die Unterkunft ist sehr schön nur schon etwas in die Jahre gekommen, Liegen vor Ort ohne Auflage und sehr unbequem. Im Restaurant haben wir einmal zu Abend gegessen (Burger), Essen war leider kalt. Sonst kann man gut mit der Fähre an Land fahren und dort essen gehen. Die Fähre ist kostenfrei. Zimmer war super und sehr groß.

Good

Very special place if you wany peace and quiet and not have to bag sun loungers early in the morning - good breakfast - friendly staff

I would have given the resort a score of four except for the ferry schedule. I was aware of the issue before booking but the reality was worse than expected. When we arrived (by air), we weren't quite able to make the 2.30pm ferry and there's a massive gap of 2.5 hours to the next ferry. Every ferry we went on was packed and, for half of them, they had to use a second boat. It would make far more sense and better customer service to change to an hourly schedule, which would only require, at the most, five extra return trips The facilities were excellent except for the bed base, which stuck out from the mattress and even had posts on which I split my toe open. One other minor issue was that the toilet roll holder was in a very awkward location, despite not needing to be. Keep an eye open for the beautiful Hornbills and Kingfishers.

We read all the reviews of this hotel before booking and weren’t expecting 5star luxury but the hotel seemed good value and located where we wanted to be. The moment we stepped off the boat onto the island we knew we had made a great choice. All the staff were friendly, relaxed and made you very welcome. They seemed happy doing their jobs. The island is a paradise for wildlife.Everywhere is walkable and you never know what bird it animal you will find round the next corner…..and the monkeys! There is also an aviary hidden away with budgerigars and peacocks who look forward to 10am & 4pm feedings which you are invited to join. Yes , the buildings are a little tired but clean and comfortable and if you want to pay 4 times the price there are plenty of other 5star hotels but I doubt we would have enjoyed it half as much as we did!
