Langkawi, Part II - Berjaya Langkawi Island Resort

With the help of GPS, we drove along some twisty winding roads, and arrived at Berjaya Langkawi Island Resort about 20 minutes later.

Berjaya Langkawi Resort, Seaview Chalet - RM560/night, included breakfast for 2 (Free upgrade from Rainforest Chalet)
Berjaya Langkawi Resort is a secluded, quiet hotel nestled amidst an old tropical rainforest. From the hotel lobby, we took a 5 minutes shuttle bus ride to our chalet. It was a semi-detached wooden chalet built in the traditional Malay style. It comes with a lovely balcony overseeing the sea, shaded by some old, tall trees. The chances of spotting a monkey is high, so we make sure we close our windows and balcony door properly before we leave the room, or during bed time. 

A curious visitor came to check us out
Since the chalet is located in the forest, initially we were quite worried about mosquitoes, but to our pleasant surprise, not a single mosquito bite after our 4-day stay. Perhaps the breeze from the sea helped to keep the mosquitoes away. And so I thank the nice receptionist who was kind enough to upgrade our room from standard Rainforest Chalet to Seaview Chalet free of charge, upon knowing that we come with a baby.

Of our 4 days at Langkawi, we spent most of our time in the resort, chilling out and enjoying the resort facilities. To get to the beach, pool, restaurants, gym and other facilities in the resort, we need to travel by shuttle bus. Luckily the shuttle bus service was quick and efficient, usually it will arrive within 5 minutes after a call. And the resort staff were friendly and helpful too.
