Towards the north-west of Langkawi Island in Kedah lies be Datai Bay, whereby some of the finest resorts on the island are to be found. By finest, we mean star-rated and exclusive! Now, who wouldn’t like a treat to that? Or if resorts aren’t your thing, how about a secluded, private pristine beach where you can catch the waves on surfboards, paddleboard, or see a group of otters swimming around in the bay? Now that sounds simply amazing!
Modern-day Langkawi is quite full of tourists, so the peaceful beaches of the past are no longer there. However, if you know where to go, you can still find hidden gems such as Datai Bay that are less frequented by tourists!
Indeed, Datai Bay Beach in Langkawi is a very small beach. The bay area is not very large, but the beach itself is beautiful and the sand is very soft and clean. Since there are not many tourists here, it is definitely suitable for taking pictures. The water is also very clear and the photos taken are very beautiful.
Although there aren’t many tourist attractions located close by to Datai Bay itself, fret not as there countless other attractions for visitors to spend a weekend here!

This golf club is not just any golf club, as it is listed as one of Malaysia’s top-ten golf clubs! Enthusiastic golfers can spend the entire day to tee-off at the 18-holes of the Datai Bay golf resort. Even better, this golf club is open every day, and is also equipped with restaurants, tennis courts as well as a swimming pool! What more could be an ideal holiday for a family, whereby each member has its own sport to be occupied with? All in all, in Datai Bay, the golf resort is suitable for golfers seeking pleasure and challenge added with the best natural environment.
Golf enthusiasts aside, many tourists arrive at Datai Bay for none other than the exquisite resorts! These resorts intend to offer the most excellent hospitality services to its guests and they definitely excel in doing so. One of the premium resorts and well-known to most would be The Andaman Resort. Besides The Andaman Resort, there is also The Datai Langkawi Resort, which is also a top star-rated resort that would not disappoint.
