Retreat to a paradise. Retreat to The Westin Langkawi Resort and Spa, surrounded by the idyllic natural setting of the magical Langkawi Island. Situated on 500 meters of private beachfront, the resort offers a retreat from the rigors of travel, yet is only one kilometre from the main harbour of Langkawi, three kilometres from duty free shopping centres, and 20 minutes from the Langkawi International Airport. Leave behind the hectic city life and enter a sense-awakening oasis that refreshes and de stresses the mind and body. The aromatic scent of White Tea candles, a touch of nature in the decorated botanicals, refreshing Elixir drinks, and the invigorating cold towel service will fill your visit with unforgettable memories long after you leave.

Atmospheric, laid back and thoroughly unique, Bon Ton is a careful blend of conservation principles and design savvy. The small resort (or Coconut Village as it used to be called) comprises 7 antique kampung houses acquired from islanders by Australian owner Narelle McMurtrie, and subsequently reassembled on a peaceful coconut plantation just north of Langkawi longest beach. Colourful fabrics, Malay songket weavings and antique wood furnishings adorn each of the stilted wooden houses, which face a lily-strewn lagoon. Modern touches include luxury bathrooms, fridges, kettles and (in some of the houses) air-con. It is a far cry from the surrounding generic resort hotels, and what Bon Ton lacks in facilities, it more than makes up for in atmosphere.
