The Andaman, a Luxury Collection Resort, Langkawi

Area & Activities

The Andaman, A Luxury Collection Resort, Langkawi is situated near the beach at the northern end of Peninsular Malaysia, where the Straits of Malacca meet the Indian Ocean. This archipelago of 104 islands is located just 30 kilometers off the coast of Kedah state. Langkawi is one of the two populated islands here, and the largest by far at approximately 478 square kilometers. It is here, flanked by a 10 million-year-old rainforest and the Andaman Sea, that hotel visitors encounter the white sand beaches of our grand resort. Located beachfront, our hotel is uniquely situated to view the abundance of rare wildlife and flora that call Langkawi home.

Much like its namesake, the Brahminy Kite, Langkawi is soaring into the hearts and minds of a growing international audience. The island now plays host to a multitude of visitors, both foreign and local, with international events like the Tour de Langkawi, an annual cycling competition from Langkawi to Kuala Lumpur.

To get a true feel of life on the Langkawi island, our hotel concierge suggests renting a car and circling Malaysia's countryside to take in the peaceful landscape of paddy fields, small villages with wooden houses framed by palm trees and small children pedaling along on their bicycles.
Aside from experiencing the local lifestyle, there is no shortage of things to do in Langkawi. Hop on our resort's cable car to the summit of Mount Mat Cincang—Langkawi’s second-highest mountain—for an unrivalled view of the entire main island and beyond.

Golf in exotic splendor on a resort course designed by former champion Ernie Els. Els Club Teluk Datai is a captivating golf club with strict guidelines regarding indigenous flora and fauna. The course preserves the environment while providing a unique playing experience.
