Guest Reviews
- V8192ZXmonikag (6/5): Not What We Expected – Cleanliness Needs Serious Improvement - We stayed at Tropical Resort Langkawi for nine nights (although we had originally planned eleven). The staff were very friendly and welcoming, which we truly appreciated.
However, our overall experience was mixed. While the hotel looks appealing in photos, our triple room was quite disappointing — dark, with dark walls, and unfortunately not very clean.
It didn’t feel comfortable or well-maintained.
In comparison, our friends who stayed in double rooms had much brighter and more spacious accommodations, which made a noticeable difference.
Breakfast was another downside. The selection was very limited, and most of the food was often cold. There was also a lack of fresh vegetables — occasionally there was some cucumber or lettuce, but overall the options were quite poor.
On the positive side, the pool area was nice, and the location is convenient, close to the beach and surrounded by pleasant surroundings.
That said, cleanliness is something the hotel should seriously improve. The bathroom, including the shower and toilet, was not up to standard, and the cleaning service could definitely be more thorough. Even simple updates like repainting the walls or improving maintenance would make a big difference.
In summary, the location and staff are strong points, but the cleanliness and room quality need significant improvement.
- chriskT4379IT (10/5): Great stay in a lovely location, with friendly staff and easy access to one of the island’s best beaches. - We had a lovely stay here and would happily recommend it. The location was excellent, very close to the beach with a private pathway, which was a really nice touch. It is also next to one of the best beaches on the island, which felt more natural and much cleaner than others we visited. It was also only a five minute walk to one of the best fire shows on the island, which made the location even better.
The staff were all very friendly and helpful, and made us feel welcome throughout our stay. The breakfast was good, the pool was clean and well looked after, and the whole environment felt peaceful and relaxing. We especially loved hearing the birds around the property, which added to the calm atmosphere.
We also felt very safe during our stay. Even when we left items outside our room, we never felt worried about them. Overall, it was a very comfortable and enjoyable place to stay.
- Navigate56997320704 (10/5): Peaceful stay - I had a very pleasant stay at Tropical Resort Langkawi. The location is perfect—just a short walk from the beautiful Pantai Tengah beach and close to shops, restaurants, and convenience stores. The rooms are clean, comfortable, and surrounded by lush greenery, giving a peaceful, relaxing vibe. The staff is friendly, helpful, and always ready to assist with local guidance. The pool area is well maintained and adds to the resort’s calm atmosphere. It’s an ideal place for couples, families, or anyone looking for a quiet escape near the beach. Great value for money, and I would happily stay here again.
- silviaheuer (2/5): Without words.. - I booked a 38 m² deluxe room, clearly advertised. What I was given was a space of barely 20 m², including the bathroom. Even the “smaller” categories they advertise (25 m²) are misleading, since this room was clearly much less.
When I raised the issue, the only “solution” offered was breakfast – something I never booked or wanted. The manager then argued that I had chosen a king-size bed and therefore had to accept this room. That logic is unacceptable: square meters are not optional extras.
What shocked me most was the manager’s behavior. Instead of taking responsibility, he repeatedly said “women like you are a problem” and even told me “I don’t want to have you here.”
As a paying guest, this level of disrespect is beyond unprofessional.
I am grateful the Booking platform recognized the misrepresentation and issued a refund, but this should never have happened. Travelers deserve honesty, transparency, and basic respect.
- MariaH7611 (10/5): A little piece of paradise - My return visit was as wonderful as the first six months ago. Tropical Resort has a relaxed natural setting, with neat, clean and spacious rooms. Rest in the pool, walk along the path to the beach, admire the local wildlife, relax in the library or the pool, visit the many restaurants, spas and duty free shops literally next door or across the road. The staff are friendly and helpful. Simple but fabulous. It’s our go-to place to stay on Langkawi. We love it there.
- JasonD4205 (10/5): Perfect stay - Wonderful resort. Beautiful spacious and comfortable rooms, right on the beach and with a really lovely pool to relax by. Wifi worked perfectly and staff were friendly. Could not fault my stay one single bit. Great location, near some lovely restaurants and a short walk to the main tourist town area.
- Sightsee34947295871 (10/5): Peaceful Tropical Escape! 幽静热带小天地 - 🌴 Peaceful Tropical Escape!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
We had a truly relaxing and comfortable stay at Tropical Resort Langkawi. The resort is surrounded by lush, vibrant tropical plants 🌺, creating a calm and beautiful atmosphere. Guests are friendly and often greet each other — such a nice community vibe!
🧹 Spotlessly clean – the staff were always kind and helpful, keeping our room and the entire resort area spotless every day. It really felt like a home away from home. 🏡
🏊♂️ The central pool is a perfect place to relax — guests were sunbathing, chatting quietly, or reading by the pool. So peaceful.
🌊 A small hidden path behind the resort takes you through greenery to Pantai Tengah, a quiet, clean white sand beach. In the evenings, there are local BBQ stalls along the shore.
🚕 For more action, Pantai Cenang is just a short RM4–5 Grab ride away — perfect for shopping, water sports, food, cafes, and duty-free stores.
☕️ Right next door is Top Kopi, a great café for meals and desserts.
🥘 About a 15-minute walk brings you to Selera Lubuk Buaya, a local spot serving fresh seafood and delicious Malay-Thai fusion dishes at good prices.
💚 A perfect balance of nature, comfort, and convenience. We’re truly grateful for the experience. Highly recommended!
在Tropical Resort Langkawi度过了一段非常舒服自在的假期。整个度假屋环境幽静优美,热带植物生机盎然,处处散发着放松的氛围。泳池位于园区中央,是一大特色,许多住客安静地泡在水里晒太阳、聊天或看书,气氛祥和。
员工服务亲切又专业,每天都把房间和周围环境打扫得一尘不染,让人有回到家的感觉。住客之间也会微笑打招呼,令人感受到温暖与友善。
从度假屋后方一条小路穿过小树林,几分钟就能走到干净宁静的Pantai Tengah白沙滩。想体验热闹的海滩,打车到Pantai Cenang也只需马币4-5元,那里适合喜欢热闹、购物、美食和水上活动的游客。
附近吃的也很方便,隔壁就是Top Kopi咖啡厅,三餐甜点都很棒;步行15分钟还能到Selera Lubuk Buaya,海鲜新鲜,融合本地与泰式风味,价格合理。
真心推荐这个地方,舒适、自然又便利,是理想的度假选择。感恩这里的一切!
- 946mainaw (10/5): Worth it ! Wonderful stay - Wonderful stay , respectful and friendly staff who were always already ready to help , clean rooms and great location. I had a wonderful time staying here and felt all my needs were met . The pool is fantastic and adds to the charm of staying at tropical resort . The location is great as you can go to various restaurants around the area and the beech too which is a short walk from the hotel . I will definitely be staying here the next time I come back to langkawi
- Roving02062226051 (10/5): The tropical romantic hotel 🤩 - Good hotel great hospitality in plein nature with a beautifull pool surounded by tropical trees and birds making it best place for couples
- roseg550 (10/5): A great base for exploring Langkawi - We enjoyed a lovely stay at The Tropical. Very helpful staff. Nice quiet resort close to the beach. Nice swimming pool too!
Highly recommend this hotel as a base for exploring Langkawi, taking time to relax and enjoy the nature of the island.
- Tamaracecile (8/5): A little paradise - This place is a little paradise! No luxury, but a small and quiet resort, just like I prefer it. All the rooms are situated in little houses around the pool, and from the back garden, where you have some lying chairs, you just walk to the beach, that you have mainly for yourself. The breakfast is nice and is served to your terrace. The rooms are big and comfortable (if other reviews give critics I think it's because they are used to big 4 or 5 star resorts). Only the bed linen could be a bit more comfortable. But for me this place was perfect to end my trip through Malaysia in the most relaxing way!
- LuisaHall (10/5): 2 star hotel with 4 star service - Booked this hotel for 3 nights and ended up spending 2 weeks there. They're all little cottages around a wonderful pool, ours looked at the back, to the little path to the beach so you had a glimpse of the sea and amazing sunset. The housekeeping staff is very attentive especially Helmy, cleans your room every day,change towels, bottles of water, toilet paper and toiletries every day, the gardens always looked after, the receptionist Fika, very friendly and helpful, Pantai tengah is a short walk to Pantai cenang so much quieter and the island is duty free, would recommend this hotel to anyone who's looking for a hotel by the beach. Only 2 star but 4 star service.
- DutchCheryl (10/5): Will stay again - Beautiful little place, the cottages are situated around the swimming pool and every cottage has some green in front for privacy. Behind the cottages is a sand path that takes you to the beach, a communal outdoor shower it available there as well. The resort has a small library/book exchange. Staff is very helpful to book tours.
Restaurants are across and a little bit up the road, a laundromat and 7/11 is a 4 minute walk.
Please try their warm Malay breakfasts, they are delicious.
- cathymerke (10/5): Loved this place - Lovely little resort with a great pool to cool off in. Our room was just right, a close walk to the beach or out to the street. Easy to get around and lots of restaurants and shops nearby. The staff were lovely and very helpful.
- JeanGeisser (2/5): Worst place ever - Worst place ever!!!!
We booked two rooms for 4 nights, left after the first night. Backpacker hostels would be even better, how people can give high ratings is unbelievable. Our bedroom: aircon is not working, fan rusty and dirty, get one towel for pool, beach and shower, no lock. Our guests room: shower not working, dirty room, cockroach, fan like ours. Both rooms no bed sheets, only bed covers.
Went to reception and complained about the state of the rooms. Absolutely no interest, no comments just sitting there like a cutout board. We left after the first night. Pool dirty and the whole resort is run down, surprised anyone staying at this resort. Do yourself a favor and don't even consider staying there
- T5084KJscottj (8/5): Good location - We only stayed one night before flying out to Penang. We had a room opposite the pool. The pool was nice for a swim. The room was basic but clean. Aircon worked well. Breakfast was very average. I wouldn't pay extra for it. Plenty of restaurants within walking distance for breakfast, lunch or dinner. Beach access via a path behind the hotel is only a short walk away.
- Freedom174445 (8/5): Nice local resort nearby beach - I stayed for 2 nights with my friends, this is my second time stayed at this resort. The room and bathroom are clean and we really appreciate how clean the bathroom is. One of the rooms that we stayed had issue with the faucet, they fixed it instantly. For the rooms we have nothing much to complaint about everything is superb. Only the lady staff at the reception was not really friendly. We also love the location with easy access to the beach
The breakfast was so-so compared to my last stay in 2017, we finally went to nearby local stalls for our breakfast.
- 328frankp (6/5): This is no resort - This is not a resort. The rooms are modern and clean. Aircon, fridge and bed ate fine. The staff are nice and helpful. Breakfast was ok. There is no restaurant, but great restaurants are across the road..
Nice gardens. It's best to hire a local to act as a guide to take you around.
- ShaunM96 (8/5): Great but potential to be amazing - This is a lovely little hotel, great pool and beach access. Rooms are nice enough but could be upgrades with a few fancier design elements. Staff who were checking rooms were friendly as was the AM receptionist who was doing check outs. The PM receptionists were aloof and not so pleasant which didn’t give a great first impression. Location is ideal close enough to Cenang to walk, far away enough to be quiet.
- MKBbill (2/5): Disappointing - Room was ok and the pool and access to the beach are a plus.
Unfortunately the stay was ruined by a rude manager who tried telling me the room security deposit was subject to the island tourism tax... absolutely false
Also, no receptacle adapter for foreign guests and no blanket on the bed-just a thin sheet.
Disappointing.
- Jon (6/5): Tropical resort - It's cheap but clean and has a pool and decent wifi
- Siti Salmah (10/5): Breakfast should be more food - Good place for relaxing
- Paolo (10/5): Very good choice for Langkawi - This is a fairly simple resort but i would say it deserves more than 2/3 starts, deffo 3. Rooms are comfy, clean and spacious with good showers and large bathrooms, with good air conditioning and fan. It was quiet so easy to sleep and swimming pool was great for a morning swim. The adjacent restaurant was also very good. Perhaps only remark is that options for breakfast in the morning were fairly limited
- Doug (10/5): - No beach ffrontage however access to beach is via a track through the vegetation
- Carlos (10/5): Escape trip to Langkawi - Weather not nice, raining a lot! The most unpleasant thing was the 4 Indians guests in the next room making a lot of noise and dirty!
- Verified traveler (10/5): - We thoroughly enjoyed staying here.The staff especially Ritz were wonderful, warm, friendly and very attentive. The location was perfect for us, within walking distance to great restaurants, beach and shopping.Rooms are not large but adequate with outdoor sitting area.
- Michael (8/5): - We stayed five nights and enjoyed the pool, closeness to the beach and the many different restaurants that are around the area in walking distance. Breakfast could be better. Overall a very well maintained and clean resort, staff were great.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - We had the room, 103, as displayed on Expedia. Out the front door and straight into the pool. Breakfast was located in the restaurant next to check-in. Beside our room is a track to the beach, about 4 minutes walk. Be careful if you go into the sea. The water in murky and a fellow guest ended up in hospital after coming in contact with a jellyfish. Extreme pain. We walked to Underwater World and the duty free store next to it. About 15 minutes walk. Grab was everywhere, RM12 from thew airport. RM24 to the cable car ride.
- Verified traveler (2/5): - Worst experience with this hotel. I rather loose my money than staying here.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Excellent location: very close to the Pantai Tengah beach and bars and restaurants in the area. Very clean and comfortable rooms. Great swimming pool. Available and friendly staff, although sometimes we had some communication problems.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - The beach was very close 😊
- Gary (8/5): Great room - Great hotel , very cheap , nice room if your on a budget
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Great hotel, literally 3 minute walk to beach at the back of the property. Walking distance of plenty of restaurants and bars. Staff were lovely, only area for improvement is breakfast which could have a little more choice. They also have a cute cat called Maurice!
- Verified traveler (8/5): Tropical Resort - We had a very enjoyable time. The Tropical resort is a very quiet base for your holiday. The rooms are clean and comfortable, and very close to the beach.
The staff are friendly and helpful
The only grumbles we had were about the poor WiFi and the lack of safe in your room
Also the breakfast selection was very limited
- Riitta-Leena (8/5): Nice and quiet area - Nice stay in Tropical Resort. Location in Pantai Tengah with nearly beach in more quiet area. Helpful and friendly staff. Dinner in restaurant was tasty. Breakfast good have had more options to choose from. Spa next door recommended.
- Leah (10/5): Home away from home - The place felt like home. Very welcoming and helpful staff!
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Nice place, quiet and relaxing.
Highly recommended.
Will stay there again next visit.
Insyaa'Allah.
- Jeff (8/5): Langkawi Island trip - The location is very good , close to the beach , maybe a 2 min walk......or less !
Clean pool , breakfast was very good , and the staff were extra helpful ....
If back on Langkawi I would stay here again .... rooms were just large enough, and
Everything worked well ....a/c , tv , hot water, mini fridge .....
- Carmelo&Karen (8/5): Tropical Oasis. - Great Location with friendly staff. Breakfast was more than adequate with changes each day. The pool was refreshing & clean. Rooms were well maintained with an excellent bathroom. Hard to fault at this price. Beach is 100 metres away with restaurants, car hire & mini mart within walking distance. We would come back again.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Only stayed 1 night. Breakfast was good, man in restaurant very helpful.
- Kirk (10/5): Paradise on Earth - I am not sure if I should be telling you all about just how wonderful this place really is....after all part of its magic is that it is an oasis in Langkawi and that's how i would like to keep it!!!
However, let's just say amongst all the properties we visited and especially compared to downtown Cenang Beach Tropical Resort really is a beautiful, laid back haven. Why?
Firstly the bungalows setting is gorgeous, our bungalow was set back just a bit from the pool and the reception area which meant that it was quieter and more private. The facilities are fine for what you would expect with a very good fridge and aircon. The pool area is beautiful and it is hilarious to watch the monkeys steal the mangoes from the beach side trees and then clamber about eating their stolen fruit in the high trees shading the pool area. The beach is a two minute walk through shaded trees and whilst not the most exciting beach is perfect for families and people who just want to chill in the warm, tropical waters!
The Melayu Restaurant attached is OK but the big plus is the area itself having one of the best 'Duty Free' booze shops opposite and four of the great restaurants on the island within easy walking distance. Overall we came for 4 days and stayed 10....PERFECT!!
- Bryan (6/5): - Not a bad place to stay. Within easy walking distance of Nice beach. Nice pool. Not too close to main bar street so not too noisy.
- BristolTravel (8/5): Lovely pool and greenery but a little outdated - This is a great place to come to relax. Lovely pool area and greenery and not many guests. A short stroll to the beach but beware of the stray dogs at dawn/dusk. Pantai Tengah is a quiet place and there are some restaurants are a short walk away but away from the action of Cenang
- Verified traveler (8/5): Nice simple place a few metres from the beach - Tropical resort is a simple place, so don't expect luxury accommodation, but it is very good value for money if you look for a place next to the beach. The rooms are simple and functional, each room has its own little patio area with a table. The pool looked clean, although I didn't use it. The beach is literally a 2 mins walk and the beach is wonderful, but unfortunately, there is nothing on the beach, i.e. no sun loungers, no umbrellas etc. So basically if you don't bring your own umbrella, you are roasting in the sun. My suggestion for the resort would be to put up a few sun loungers on the beach and invest in a few umbrellas.
Staff are very friendly and helpful and the place is clean and well looked after, although the furniture is quite old.
Summary: good value for money place for a few nights next to the beach, but be prepared to bring your won umbrella if you want to spend time on the beach.
- Debra (8/5): Hidden gem of a hotel close to the beach - Very nice small hotel , friendly staff. Close to a lovely beach and a nice swimming pool to cool off . Would definitely recommend this hotel. Lots of good restaurants to choose from close to the hotel , all within walking distance
- june (8/5): Quiet n comfortable - The hotel is in a very good location . Near to cafes n restaurants and yet not noisy . Overall it is worth the price we paid for .
- Zsuzsanna (10/5): - Fantastic, perfect
- Rolf (10/5): Spent a relaxing time - I enjoyed the stay very much, the breakfast buffet was awesome, the location close to the quiet Pantai Tengah beach was exactly what I needed, the lively Cenang Beach is in walking distance. My room was facing the beach side, however there are about 100 meters of "Jungle" between the room and beach. It had a nice veranda with two chairs and table to chill outside, just remember to get mosquito spray e.g. in the nearby supermarket. The room and shower where clean. WiFi didn't work so well at times.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Nice and value for money. Walking distance to beach too.
- Stuart (10/5): Heaven - Best choice for us, pool view and very quiet but service second to none.
- Deb (8/5): Small but charming resort - We stayed 10 nights at the Tropical Resort. We picked the resort as it was out of the hustle and bustle of Cenang but still close enough that we could walk if we needed to. It was only a 5-10 min walk and we often walked up there for dinner each night.
Breakfast at the resort was nice each morning. The restaurant was good for dinner too. Good prices as well. The rooms were spacious and cleaned each day. Pool area nice and it's just a few minutes walk to the beach.
Thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend Tropical Resort.
- Frank (10/5): Nice rooms with good facilities - The cabins are comfortable and have a table with chairs outside. Cleaners took away the empty bottles for you if you left them on the table outside. The complex is near some jungle where you can see and hear some tropical birds and (if you are lucky) monkeys. Beach is indeed less than a 2 minute walk, but it isn't the part of the beach where a lot is happening. Not (m)any bars or sunbeds etc -- for that you have to walk to the part of the beach behind the cliff. This is not a problem, just something to be aware of. The water in the pool is not that cold, but then again that is the case almost everywhere in Malaysia. You don't pay tax on this island so drinks are somewhat cheaper as a result. There is a tax-free shop on the other side of the road of the tropical resort, don't forget take your passport on your fist visit.
- Sally (10/5): Close to the beach and convenient for restaurants - We spent a week in Langkawi and Tropical Resort was a good place to stay on the island, close to the quieter beach, but close enough to Pentai Cenang to give lots of choice of restaurants and shops. We enjoyed both the beach and the different trips to the Sky Bridge and a couple of fantastic trips in the Mangrove river and a night walk in the jungle. The swimming pool in the hotel was a good plus as well.
- Craig (10/5): Fab place to relax and explore - This place is absolutely fine as a base. It's not 5* but then again it's not 2* either. It does exactly what it states it is: what you see is what you get.
We had a fantastic stay here and would definitely recommend it.
It's clean and tidy, the shower works, you have somewhere to hang wet clothes, you have a veranda. Our veranda was looking out to the sea and he beach. It's a 2 minute slow walk to the beach, quicker if your more active than me. It has air con and a ceiling fan. There is no safe in the room, I would say that is the only negative.
- Geoff B (8/5): - Clean tidy and good location, reasonable value for money
- Verified traveler (8/5): Relaxing stay - Good location and more relaxing away from the main beach. Breakfast choices were poor but the evening meals in the restaurant were delicious and inexpensive. The beef rendang was exceptional.
- Patricia (4/5): Nice location but... Read on... - I stayed in Tropical Resort for 5 nights. They have very friendly staff, trying their best to answer all your questions. They even extend the check-out time up to 2pm. For their service, I give a thumbs up.
Location of the hotel is superb, near to the beach, eateries, spa and many more.
The only problem with the hotel is cleanliness. The shower room drainage is choked and nothing has been done after several days of feedback. Can you imagine your feet is never clean each time after taking a shower?
Nonetheless, the most terrifying experience is my last night in the hotel. Middle of the night, I felt tickling on my arm, woke up found nothing. Second time, felt the tickling On my face area, and woke up and found nothing. Feeling unease, I woke up and went to bathroom, and return and found this long leggy creature on the bed... I'm not afraid of roaches, but sleeping with them is another thing.
For those planning to stay in Tropical Resort, avoid room S3, though it's just next to the pool. Don't envy them.
- Calvyn (10/5): Relaxing resort - Great place to relax, good pool and handy to the beach and restaurants.
- John (8/5): Great value - This was our second stay at the Tropical Resort and we enjoyed it even more than the first. Since we stayed the first time the bathrooms have been upgraded and the simple but adequate breakfast has moved to the Melayu restaurant. This would have to be the best value accommodation in Pantai Tengah!
- Kin Y (8/5): A Quiet Resort - A quiet resort located a fine beach with less crowded beach goers. The room size was ok with a great bathroom ( no bath tub ). A decent pool allowed us to rest n swim. Thumbs up
- Verified traveler (6/5): Needs a make over - not too bad
- Verified traveler (8/5): Very worth it - Simple but clean rooms. Air conditioning needed servicing. Good enough but could be much cooler on some of the really hot afternoons. Close proximity to the beach. Nice pool. Very near a convenience i.e. gecko to get your beers and snacks and basically any other thing you need. Restaurants are around but never tried any of them. Cenang is about a 15 minute walk away but if you take uber or grab it's very cheap to get there. I would stay there again when I go back.
- Peter & Sue (8/5): Great value for money - Thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Tropical Resort.We enjoyed being at the quieter end of the town with only a short walk to restaurants and shops and 200m to the beach. Rooms were clean, with a/c and ceiling fans, great shower but bed was firm. Really pretty pool area, and breakfast included made for a fantastic holiday for the budget conscious.
- Gerald (8/5): Liked that little resort much - It was a relaxing stay at a beautiful beach.
- Christopher (10/5): Wonderful stay in Langkawi - Walking distance to beach and all restaurants in mean Cenang area. Very helpful staff. Clean and tidy rooms. A\C. Lovely pool. Breakfast was basic but fine. Cereal, Asian choices and omelettes made fresh. Lovely banana bread. Great stay overall. Highly recommend!

- Verified traveler (6/5): - friendly & helpful staff...enjoy my stay.
near to the beach
café bfast was good
- Ganesh (10/5): Good resort - Resort is very good and neatly maintained. Breakfast dishes were very less.They should add more items to the breakfast.
- Robert (8/5): Great stayy - relaxing and enjoyable
- Jason (8/5): Very good location and nice environment - The hotel is slightly out of city but with a rented car this hotel is a super good bargain. We enjoyed the stay and the restaurant around the hotel. Cenang beach is just around the corner.
- Ganesh (10/5): Clean and in great location with peace and comfort - Hotel was really good. It is in calm location near to beach and Indian Hotels
- Mark (8/5): Good relaxing accomodation - The Tropical Resort was a great place to stay. 150m direct access to a quiet beach. Peaceful location. The staff were very friendly and helpful.
Cenang beach is a 15 minute walk away but not a good relaxing place to be as it is full of parasailing vendors, and jet ski operators. The beach is filthy. This place will ruin itself.
- Wahab (8/5): A quiet resort in a quiet corner of Langkawi - I stayed in Tropical Resort Langkawi for 3 nights with my wife and one-year-old son. It is a very quiet and very tidy resort. The rooms and bath rooms are spacious and all the basic amenities were available. We had a 32” LED in our room and a small refrigerator with tea/coffee maker with tea, coffee, creamers and sugar brought in every day with a set of clean towels. It is just a 2 minutes walk from the beach, although the beach nearby is not very safe for kids and for those, who are not very good swimmers, because it is quite steep. We were told that there were many much better beaches in Langkawi, but Langkawi is not only about the beaches. Our package included breakfast, which was more than sufficient to start the day and we loved sitting in the beautiful cozy restaurant. The swimming pool is very nice and relatively clean, with a smaller portion for kids, which my son loved very much. The hotel staff are polite and helpful, although we didn’t have much interaction with them. The only con about this hotel is its relatively longer distance from the market, which we didn’t feel much at all, because we loved the 1km walks to and from the market in the evening. However, there’s a supermarket just adjacent to the resort on the roadside and there are a few shops just across the road and a very nice juice and sandwich corner adjacent to the restaurant, which regrettably closes very early in the evening.
I will definitely choose this place again IF I find myself in Langkawi again.
- John (10/5): Great value , very friendly staff - The hotel and staff met / exceeded our expectations ...very friendly and accommodating ...also the breakfast was very nice and surprised to see it was available from 7:30 to 11:00!!!
Great access to a very nice beach ...basically on the beach approx 100 metres through garden.
- Denise (10/5): Good location and great value for money hotel. - Our room and patio overlooked green wooded area to the rear of the hotel and was very peaceful and private with a relaxing view and only minutes from the beach.The pool view rooms were also well located but a little less privacy and more noise on the patio's of these rooms from guests using the pool.
The pool and surrounding area was cleaned daily and the gardens well tended.
Reception staff were excellent especially Ilman? who was very helpful.Breakfast staff also very polite and friendly.The room was comfortable enough and had everything needed including a fridge,kettle with tea and coffee supplies, plenty of wardrobe space and a plug- in mosquito deterent which was welcome along with quiet and efficient air con.
Curtains and bedding were drab and a colourful replacement would improve the overall room appearance.
Bed was on the hard side but clean and enough pillows.
- William (8/5): Budget beauty - Stayed 7 nights at tropical on our second week at Langkawi, would say was very good value for money, easy walking distance to Cenang mall, underwater world, etc.
Lots of close by restaurants, bars, convenience stores and more, also close to beach which was perhaps a little over 100m walk from back of resort along wide sandy track.
Was just a little out of central Cenang, which suited us fine as it was noticeably quieter and less busy but still close enough to most everything this area has to offer. Traveled extensively around the island during our stay and would say this area is a great base.
Pool good, and clean, nice plants, pleasant overall outlook, breakfast not too bad really.
Only little gripe is we had room facing beach which got the strong afternoon sun, was quite hot sitting out on chairs as the veranda had clear perspex, could definitely do with more shade here. Otherwise very good and can recommend tropical resort, very good value, modern bathroom, small but adequate rooms, good air conditioning, and, unlike many places we have stayed in Asia, every thing actually worked. :)
- Leigh (8/5): - A delightful place to stay
- Rebecca (8/5): Just lovely - Really lovely place, staff really friendly and approachable. Room lovely
- Alex (6/5): Nice hotel but unsafe beach - This hotel provides acceptable facilities for your stay but we had an incident in the beach near the hotel. There are several parasailing companies near the beach and surprisingly one of them was starting their lift parallel to the beach such that the parachute rope was dragging in the water near the people in the beach. Unluckily, once, the rope hit my wife arm and caused some bruises and bleeding. We complained to the parasailing guys but they said it was not them! We reported to the front desk hotel and they were like we don't know what to do....very disappointing...
- horizon (8/5): Langkawi best stay - Good location near to the beach and all the action area
Good breakfast
Affordable
A/c need to be upgraded
Staff helpful
- Lincoln (6/5): Cute place, bad food, great service - Pleased with what we got for the price we paid. Great location, right on the beach and close to multiple restaurants, convenience stores, beachfront activities, and casual shopping spots. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. We made requests for extra water, printing, taxis, tour services, and baggage holding; all were kindly fulfilled. Breakfast is included, but it is for pretty basic sustinence. Cereal, toast, 1 fruit, noodle dish, meat dish, pastry, and coffee seems to be the outline for the breakfast buffet. DO NOT eat at the restaurant advertised in the rooms. Worst food we have ever paid for. Great little spot for cocktails though! The Langkawi Wowee was delicious! If you are looking for a close place to eat, "Sugar" is a short walk down the beach (the opposite direction of the restaurant suggested by the hotel). Delicious food for a comparable price and have tables set up in the sand so you can walk right up off the beach and dig into the sand with your toes while you enjoy your meal. Their drinks are a bit more spendy, but during happy hour they are about the same. Be prepared to get bitten up by bugs in the room if you don't keep the air-conditioning and fan on all night. The rooms were adorable and we loved the privacy and quaintness of the single bungalow style rooms.
- Lizzy (8/5): Great beachside hotel - The hotel was perfect for us - good facilities, nice swimming pool and in a good location to activities, but very quiet at night.
- David (10/5): An excellent hotel compared to others in Langkawi - This hotel should be rated much higher than 2 stars. It's very new, clean, has excellent (and friendly) staff and is in a great location. Right next to a quiet beach but within walking distance to the main town.
Compared to other hotels I've stayed at in Langkawi that are more expensive (and with more stars), this one is significantly better. I can't recommend this hotel high enough.
- MD ESHAN (10/5): Awesome stay - Check in..no hassle
Room is clean wth room service everyday
Hotel location is stone away frm all the good restaurant n for yr shpg
2 thumbs up for tropical resort...keep it up
- Verified traveler (8/5): Nice clean hotel - Nice clean hotel basic facilities but clean. Rooms are a good size with outdoor seating and relaxing areas
- Verified traveler (10/5): Great location and great value for money! - I strongly recommend staying here! The accommodation is simple but lovely - clean and roomy with air con and ceiling fan. The location is great as you're nearby all the action but not stuck in amongst it so get some peace and quiet. & the beach is gorgeous with beautiful views and all just a short stroll from your room... Perfect!
- willa (10/5): Had a great time staying - This resort is right next to the beach, also easy to get to the do all kinds of water sports. Room is clean and staffs are friendly. Had a wonderful time staying there.
- Danielle (6/5): 1 minute walk to nice beach - We didn't expect 4 or 5 star but were Disappointed with room as it was very basic. pool towels could be replaced as very thin and ours weren't changed the entire time we were there. Staff very friendly, check was quick but the air con very cold and couldn't be adjusted. An instruction or information sheet in the room explaining how the TV turned on, the hot water turned on and the air con turned on would be helpful as these are not automatic. Maybe even just labelling the switches would be good. There are no chairs or shade at the beach so would suggest small fold up beach chairs. Maybe hotel could have some for hire.
Overall the hotel and rooms were very clean.
- peter (8/5): Would recomend as good value for moey - hotel good value for money, staff friendly, breakfast a bit lacking, literally always the same and always cold.
- Lai (8/5): Clean & comfort but breakfast is terrible - Here my comments:
1. Location - Great. Accessible to private beach in 200m only, walking distance to few restaurants and convenient market. (bit for to Cenang street with 15-20 minutes walk)
2. Beach - Clean and quiet with sea sport activities.
3. Hotel - Overall is good, room is comfort and quiet but too many mosquito.
4. Breakfast - Bad. Very limited variety (5-6 dishes) and the bread not fresh.
- Khushi (8/5): Close to Nature - Its a nice place to stay with family and kids.The rooms are spacious with good furniture and quite big bathroom. Bathtub is not there but shower area is separated with door,provided with toiletry and string to hang clothes.They provide free breakfast.Its located in a prime location,with lots of option of restaurants and shops.Its nearby underwater world. The beach is just 2 minutes walk away.People who want to go for parasailing or other sports activities will enjoy this location.They provide package tours and have a small library too. The staff is very helpful,they helped us to plan our trip and provided taxi as and when needed.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Nice hotel close to the beach - A few min walk through the bushes to reach the magnificent beach. A small swimming pool for family members with kid.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Nice hotel just few minutes walk from the beach - Generally good hotel. Cleanliness can be improved, but overall is good. Quite a lot of mosquitoes around, but the staff helped to light up mosquito repellent in front of our room. So kind hearted
- Verified traveler (8/5): Good location, clean hotel - The hotel is near to a beach but with no facilities for laying in the sun/swiming on it (sunbeds, towels, etc.) Can do this by the pool of the hotel although the sunbeds would have needed a little more attention from the hotel staff. The rooms on the backside are close to a small forest like area between the hotel and the beach so you'll hear the birds in the morning.
We enjoyed the adiacent area with many options for eating out: Suncaffe and Tropical caffe were our favorites.
- Peter (8/5): Nice place to chill. - Friendly and professional management who responded positively to any questions asked.
Perfect for the beach as only a five minute walk along a tree lined pathway, restaurant serves good food on a lunchtime and evening. Outside of the bustle of Cenang strip but easily walkable and no more than 10MR by taxi. Would return for another visit if returning to Langkawi.
- John (10/5): Brilliant holiday destination - Tropical resort lived up to our expectations as situated in a brilliant position.restaurants and cafes were within easy walking distance but in a very peaceful area away from all the commercialised main part of town.
Chalet style rooms which though not large were totally adequate for iur needs.
Very helpful & friendly staff who gave great advice.
Premises were kept very clean and their own restaurant served reasonably priced nice food.
Would definately recommend Tropical resort for travellors who are looking for somewhere different from usual chain hotels.
- NILANJANA (10/5): Relaxing in Langkawi - We are an elderly couple who had a relaxing 2 days stay. The resort was good value for money. Ambience was good, plenty of trees, nice pool, short trail to beach. Cottage type rooms spacious and comfortable. Breakfast buffet was good. The staff was friendly but not readily efficient. All in all, it was a good relaxing trip.
