The very best selling point of Kampung Tok Senik Hotel is that, the whole resort is fundamentally an entire kampung. The undulating landscape is superbly designed and well kept. Trees are aplenty and they keep the place cool. Air-conditioning is not necessary. Actually, we turned off the air-con early in the morning to enjoy the fresh and invigorating air that is full of ions. Yeah, natural air beats the best ionized-equipped air-con. The kampung place is equipped with modern facilities. The kerosene lamps are just camouflages, with Thomas Edison's famous invention installed. The switches to lights and fans are exactly the same as those found in my grandpa's house. At first, I was wondering, is there a well in the bathroom? Hah..hah.. of course not. The bathroom is nothing of a surprise, but a typical hotel-esque bathroom. I read some reviews about the hotel beforehand. Some people found it very dark at night with insufficient lightings. Well, most probably, my mom came from a kampung, I spent my childhood visiting my grandparents in a kampung. I don't find it as dark as the descriptions posted by other hotel guests. In fact, when I drove back to the hotel at 10pm, I even told my parents, "aiyah, there's still street lamps, who said dark?" Nonetheless, the well-paved kampung road is quite narrow, for those who used to drive on highways in big cities. Again, I'm used to the kampung road. Most part of the road only allows 1 car at a time. If there's an oncoming car, er... one of you have to give way and reverse to a wider part of the road to make way. And, the road leading to our "house" is a no outlet road, or a dead-end road. I had to reverse my car every time we left our "house". Fun, isn't it? Ah... that's the unique theme of Kampung Tok Senik Hotel. City mouse like me loves Kampung Tok Senik Hotel very much. It's something very special and representative of Malaysia, unlike beach resorts and mountain resorts that are ubiquitous

We booked Sunset Valley after reading other reviews about the holiday cottages and I can honestly say that the experience we had far exceeded our expectations. David and Gudrun were extremely helpful and very friendly and went out of their way to assist us in booking excursions and trips around the Island. Sunset Valley is in a fantastic spot just far enough away to be peaceful but not so remote that you cant go and enjoy the action that Lankawi has to offer. All the houses have great views over the rice fields, and are very well maintained and comfortable. One of the best things about Sunset valley is that its not over developed and often you find that you have the pool to yourself and your not struggling to find a sun lounger. We took several trips to some of the 5star hotels on Langkawi to visit friends or have lunch which was very nice but we always felt happy about returning "Home" to the peace at Sunset Valley, there are some amazing 5 star resorts on Langkawi but I would choose Sunset Valley over any of them it was so good and I would love to go back one day

First of all, the location just perfect. I purposely choose to stay here just to get away from the crowded Pantai Chenang. The charming house with beautiful garden where you can enjoy the village life. My morning was greeted by the lovely cats. The staff were friendly and very flexible to extend my checkout time. The drawbacks; we had issue with the ant infestation in the room and the

The room is very clean. Quite near to the Langkawi airport. The location is not a problem to us since we rented car in Langkawi. Great place for family. Since it's a little far from town, it's very quiet and you won't be disturbed. Downside is there's only few shop around, and we feel a little unsafe around there as we are only one who stay at the place at that time (not holiday season). There is no drinking water and we have to buy drinking water in the convenience store.
