Homestays in Teluk Datai

Insane location, private, with only four villas super friendly staff, a BIG thank you to Ken and the whole team! Rental car is recommend :)

This place was absolutely amazing, beautiful, peaceful, and incredibly quiet. Nestled deep in the jungle, it offers a true connection with nature. Exotic birds visit daily, and monkeys stop by, yet you still get the silence and serenity you might be looking for. It is so remote that you will need at least a scooter to get snacks, drinks, and other essentials. It is very private, so it has to be remote enough, but the staff goes above and beyond to make sure you feel comfortable, so you might not even need to leave, though you definitely should, at least to explore. Each morning, you will be treated to a lovely breakfast with an amazing cup of coffee. I have been told that the main beach access has been closed by the owner, but do not worry, the staff has a secret ace up their sleeve. Just five minutes from the villas, there is a hidden private beach where you can have the entire place to yourself. Since this place is in the middle of the jungle, it requires constant maintenance. It is more like an ongoing repair cycle—by the time you finish repairing from point A to point Z, points A to D already need fixing again. That is just the nature of it, and honestly, there is nothing the owner could have done better than keeping up with this never-ending cycle of maintenance. Now, the best part of my stay was the people. I do not even want to call them staff because they are so much more than that. I would rather call them the Host-Family because they treat you like a long-lost relative visiting from abroad. They are the true highlight of this place, even more than the villas themselves. They completely respect your privacy, but if you are open to conversations, you will quickly see how warm and hospitable they truly are. Their kindness and interactions will make your stay unforgettable. Thank you all for these truly beautiful days. I will not provide names since I do not know if they would be okay with it, but you know who you are.

The property is a hidden gem - amidst a scenic piece of paradise (as the name suggests) - on a hilltop, overlooking the blue ocean. The property itself is very tastefully done - architecture as well as the interiors, with multiple elevations. The room is super large and the bathrooms have a splendid view! The infinity pool overlooking the sea is a treat. Kenneth was very warm and went over and beyond his duty to take care of us. We needed a break and this was more than we imagined - definitely coming back soon with more friends and family!

Located in a kampong (neighbourhood) so you get to be closer the livelihood of the Langkawi locals. Surrounded by paddy fields, you start and end the day with an unforgettable view. The atmosphere is one that is peaceful which contrast well with the bustling tourist areas and activities here. I love coming back after a long activity filled day to a calm and peaceful place. The property felt like a home. Even though we were guest, this warmth exemplified through the hospitality of Mr Sulaiman and his family. In the morning, for us to get a taste of Langkawi, Mr Sulaiman and family will either prepare or venture out to the local street stalls to get breakfast for their guest. I encourage any guest to have a chat with them to learn more about not only about Langkawi and also their story.

The host were very friendly, attentive, beautiful people.

Good option if you in the tight budget… The room bit spacious and clean too… I love the private toilet provided and the aircond worked very well… The Wi-Fi connection also good !!

It is like being home, they take care of everything you need and are helpful and kind. I highly recommend this place. Well located, comfortable and great breakfast too.

The Guesthouse is really cozy. The beds are comfy and everything is clean. We loved the surroundings and the shared area to hang out and meet new people. There are restaurants nearby and you can walk to the main part of Langkawi with a lot of restaurants and 2 beaches. You can also rent a scooter and explore the nature of Langkawi. Dee (the host) is amazing, fun and really helpful. We had a great time at Pondok Keladi and would definitely recommend to stay here.

The bungalow was very comfortable and lovely... great view into the garden where many buffalos were grazing. Azlina is a very lovely and helpful host who does her best to make us feel very comfortable during our stay. I highly recommend this homestay!

Mun and Afeq were very kind and helpful, as well as generous. They helped us in every way they could, even with our onward travel when it was time for us to leave. We hired a motorbike from them which was a great way to get around the island. Kawah Villa is a wonderful and relaxed place and we will certainly be back!
