Everything. Great room with good views, AC and hot water. An excellent and clean kitchen, and an ideal location 5 minutes walk to a beautiful beach. Also, the property is set back 200 meters from the road so it's quiet too.

“Nice stay for a night”
We stayed here just for a night as we couldn't prolong the stay in our previous hotel. It was nice and clean. Room was quite big. For longer stay it is a bit out of the way but if you rent a scooter then it is just fine.

“Wonderful and peaceful”
This is the perfect place to stay if you want to be away from the resorts on Langkawi. Walking distance to a couple of great restaurants but would recommend hiring a bike to get to the beaches which is easily done with the next door neighbour. The room was extremely spacious, comfortable, and had a great view plus the AC worked really well. There is a great shared kitchen and washer which if we’d been staying longer I’m sure we would have loved using. The staff are all very friendly. Overall a very peaceful place and would definitely stay again.

Big rooms and comfortable beds. Quiet area of the island with only a few restaurants. You would need a bike to get to the main areas! Overall a good value stay.

“Close to a quiet and scenic beach.”
Located 200mtrs off the Tanjung Rhu beach road. There are a few restaurants close by of which Dawan Thai Kitchen is the best value, with no added service charge. The guesthouse has a shared kitchen with fridge & cooking facilities, and a washing machine. It is good value for the price.

We had a nice room on the second floor with a little table in front from where we could even see the sea. The room was spacious and clean. It's a short walk to the beach and with a scooter you can easily reach everything around. The scooter is kind of mandatory here. There is a common kitchen with good equipment and free water as well as a laundry machine, free for use.
