Mark Wong, Senior Vice President Asia Pacific of Small Luxury Hotels of the World says, “Langkawi has been one of our most sought-after destinations by our guests. We are thrilled to add The Danna Langkawi Resort & Beach Villas to our other eight members, thereby allowing our guests to explore the different parts and cultures of Malaysia. The Danna Langkawi Resort & Beach Villas has always been considered as a local jewel of the island, and the bespoke luxury resort aligns perfectly with our brand values and meets the independently minded ethos required by Small Luxury Hotels of the World.”
The resort receives its design inspiration from colonial-Mediterranean elements with its calm, neutral tones enlivened by contemporary touches and carefully preserved green spaces to offer a tranquil, luxury getaway. Each meticulously kept room and suite comes with its own spacious private balcony that gives guests different picturesque angles of the gorgeous Langkawi Island, be it the rolling hills, lush courtyard, pristine marina, or majestic Andaman Sea.
The newest additions to the resort’s repertoire of accommodations are its luxe private pool beachfront villas, the largest private pool villas in Langkawi. Each villa comes with direct access to the beach, lavish Salvatore Ferragamo bath amenities, its own private infinity pool, sun loungers, private spa treatment area, living room and dining lounge, for a truly top-notch home-away-from-home experience.
As the perfect vantage point for breath-taking sunset views, the 9 generously spaced units of 1-bedroom villas and 1 unit of the 2-bedroom villa are perched along the pristine and secluded beachfront of Pantai Kok and are located adjacent to the main resort. Guests will be welcomed with a refined, serene ambience – one where they can wake up to the peaceful sounds of the sea and wander blissfully along the beachside at their leisure.
A destination for travellers seeking both luxury and tranquillity, The Danna Langkawi Resort & Beach Villas offers personalised and eclectic dining experiences as well, such as intimate in-villa floating breakfast, private in-villa BBQ dinner, romantic beach dinner and decadent in-villa afternoon tea.
