Sheraton Langkawi Beach Resort

 

This year my company had its Annual Managers’ Conference at Sheraton Langkawi Beach Resort. Langkawi is a beautiful island in the state of Kedah.

This 5 stars hotel is certainly a beautiful resort and very suitable for a relaxing breakaway but what to do, I’m here to attend a conference ma… so, it’s not really a getaway holiday per say.

I arrived at this resort hotel after flying into Langkawi via Fireflyz plane which I find rather an enjoyable ride. For sure, the seats feels better than AirAsia’s plane.

Upon arriving at the Registration desk, I’m being welcomed by courteous front desk officer. Service was good and I am being served fruit juice while waiting for my room registration to be processed. While I was sitting at the Lobby area, I just realized that I forgot to check my Olympus digital camera’s battery before coming over here. I quickly snapped a photo of the Lobby to check on my camera.

My assigned room number was 1527. Since this is a resort style hotel, it is built to blend with the nature and every lot is being built into 4 rooms unit. I lucky that my room has the sea view.

2 beds unit – very cozy looking room right ??

Sharp Aquos LCD TV – my favourite brand of LCD TV

The interior of the room is certainly a very cozy lot. It is tastefully furnished and I particularly like the wall deco. Some hotels just give you some lousy deco which do not blend much with the concept of the hotel. But this place is certainly living up to my expectations.

Stepping out from the room, I am impressed as well by the furniture set-up in the verandah. A nice round marble table and 2 chairs for leisure conversation or you can even work with your laptop here. There’s a fan and ceiling light as well for those who prefer more wind besides those from the sea and prefer to work in a well litted area.

This bath tub is a heaven and providing a very relaxing as well as romantic getaway for honeymoooners. You can have a very nice view, overlooking the sea, enjoying a nice bubble bath and a glass of champagne.

Being an early riser, I managed to snap a photo or 2 of the sunrise from the verandah of my room. I would strongly recommend Sheraton Langkawi to those who is seeking for an ideal relaxing holidays in Langkawi. By the way, another thing which really, really impress me is that the resort’s telephone help desk has never fail to address me by my name. It really make you feel special when the guests are greeted by their names whenever they call the help desk for shuttle service.
