Hotels near 5 Elements, Langkawi

A small but lovely villa hotel. It's a bit far from Cenang Beach, but they offer a free shuttle service to and from the beach, which is very convenient. The breakfast spread is fantastic, and the floating breakfast is a real highlight – just make sure to book it in advance! Rooms have direct access to the public pool, and the suites even come with private pools. Overall, I'm very satisfied. Five stars!

⭐We had an amazing stay at the Rebak Island Resort & Marina in Langkawi. The resort is set on a beautiful private island, offering a peaceful and relaxing escape away from the crowds. The rooms were spacious, comfortable, and very clean, with stunning views of the sea and surrounding tropical greenery. The staff were friendly, welcoming, and always happy to help. We especially loved the private beach, large swimming pool, and the regular boat transfers to the main island, which made getting around easy. The island itself is full of wildlife and beautiful nature, making it perfect for anyone looking to unwind and enjoy a tropical paradise. If you’re looking for tranquillity, great service, and a unique island experience, Rebak Island Resort is an excellent choice. We would definitely stay here again.

The hotel is beautiful with a very large area. We really enjoyed our stay in a water villa – it was one of the best experiences. The location is especially noteworthy – a jungle right next to the sea. You can even spot monkeys and other wildlife in the huts located within the jungle itself.

Overall, the hotel is pretty good, especially its location near Central Beach. There's a decent-sized shopping mall not far from the hotel with food, drinks, and reasonably priced goods. The outdoor pool within the hotel is also a big draw. Remember, you can get free towels from the fitness center—you just need to register. In the evenings, around 8 PM, there's a fire dance performance at Central Beach, about a ten-minute walk away. The water pressure in the room's bathroom was also good, much better than the previous place in Kuala Lumpur. My only minor complaints are the small flying insects in the room and the occasional mosquito, but in a tropical region, this is quite normal, so it's a good idea to prepare for mosquito control beforehand. The hotel breakfast was also good and quite substantial. For the price, it offers good value for money.

The hotel has very big and clean rooms. Breakfast area is big too and not crowded at all. This hotel is literally next to the airport and can just walk over in leass than 3 mins. Even though it is near to the airport we did not hear any planes flying over during our 2 days stay there. This hotel is strongly recommended.

⭐We had a very enjoyable stay at Ombak Villa Langkawi. The resort is located in a peaceful setting by the sea and offers beautiful sunset views. Our room was spacious, clean, and comfortable, with all the amenities needed for a relaxing stay. The staff were friendly and helpful throughout our visit, and the swimming pool area was a great place to unwind. The resort is also conveniently located close to the airport while still feeling quiet and secluded. Breakfast offered a good variety of options, and the overall atmosphere was calm and relaxing. The only minor downside was that some areas of the property could benefit from a little updating, but this did not affect our overall experience. We would happily recommend Ombak Villa Langkawi to anyone looking for a comfortable and affordable stay in Langkawi.

⭐️ (Strongly Not Recommended) My stay at A Coral Reefs Resort from 21–23 March started off acceptable, but what happened after check-out was deeply disappointing and raises serious concerns about the hotel’s professionalism and integrity. After I had already left the property and arrived at the airport, I received a call accusing me of being involved in a missing RM1200 reported by three foreign guests. This accusation was based solely on a vague CCTV clip showing me sitting in the lobby and putting something into my pocket. Let me be absolutely clear: such an allegation, made without concrete evidence, is irresponsible and unacceptable. The hotel’s account of the incident was inconsistent and unreliable. I was first told the money was left on a table, and later it was claimed to be inside a pair of pants. The inability to establish even the most basic facts seriously calls into question the credibility of the entire claim. Even more concerning is the timeline. If the alleged incident took place on 21 March, why was I only contacted on 23 March, after I had already checked out and reached the airport? This delay reflects either poor internal handling or a lack of proper investigation. The CCTV clip provided was incomplete and unclear. It merely shows me placing my own personal belongings (my phone and medicated oil) into my pocket. There is absolutely no evidence that I handled or took any cash. Relying on such selective and inconclusive footage to imply wrongdoing is not only unprofessional, but also unfairly damaging to a guest’s reputation. We have formally requested the full CCTV footage to ensure transparency and proper verification of facts. Failure to provide complete and unedited recordings will only further undermine the credibility of this accusation. If this matter is not handled appropriately, we will not hesitate to escalate it through formal complaint channels. Guests should be aware that without clear evidence, this establishment is willing to cast suspicion based on assumptions rather than facts.

Everything was okay except for the unstable TV channels. I called room service and they came to fix it quickly. But the TV still wasn't great... probably because of the internet.

This was our first time checking in, and the reception requested identification (IC) for all guests. The room we booked was for 2 pax, but we had 3 pax. Prior to arrival, we had already called to check whether an extra bed could be added, and we were informed that it was not possible. We accepted this information at that time. However, upon check-in, the receptionist informed us that we had to either pay an additional RM150 per night to stay in the same room, or book another room at an additional RM436 per night. We find these options unreasonable and not customer-friendly. We then requested to speak with the manager. Initially, the manager refused to meet us, but later came out after some time. We explained the situation in full however, the manager continued to insist on the resort’s policies. Eventually, the manager offered a complimentary room upgrade, but we were still required to pay RM150 per night. While we accepted the upgrade as a compromise, we are dissatisfied with how this situation was handled, particularly the lack of flexibility and the initial reluctance to address our concerns directly. In addition, despite not placing any sign requesting room cleaning, housekeeping entered our room without prior notice or permission. This is highly unprofessional and raises serious concerns regarding guest privacy and security.

The room felt a bit too big, almost eerie, and the facilities were a little old. Everything else was pretty good. I accidentally booked a twin room, but the front desk switched me to a super king-size bed. I checked in at 2 PM.
