My first solo experience was perfect, safe, and healing as well. I stayed in singa 1 and tepur 1 suite and rainforest suite. I really liked the cleanliness and views, especially the suite at singa 1. The car shuttle service was very helpful and kudos to the staff who drove all day. The place is very steep, so a shuttle service was a saving! The staff were added bonus, including azim, Raj, shifa and even the lady at amaala spa. They were communicating well. On my last day, i had an early checkout before opening hours and azim had ordered a complimentary breakfast from rimba restaurant to come the night before. Such kind gestures cannot be measured! Free breakfast at rimba, the rooftop is a must! And pegaga, vegan but heavenly, was so good! Good value for money, i cant forget this trip and the people who made it safe, loving, and warm for me.

Sedikit kecewa dengan studionya. Perabotannya sudah tua, tempat tidur kami berderit. Selimutnya sudah sangat usang. Temboknya setengah dicat. Perlu pembaruan. Jika tidak, sarapannya luar biasa dan stafnya luar biasa.

Tempat yang luar biasa di hutan. Kolam renang kecil yang indah. Sarapan sangat enak dan yang terpenting adalah staf yang baik hati. Terima kasih kepada seluruh tim dan terutama kepada Rahim yang selalu tersenyum adalah kebahagiaan sejati.

I wish i could give more stars for the services. All the staff are amazing 100/10. Big thanks to the boys who drove us up and down every day and the boy who cleaned our room, he really cares about detail. I meant he cleaned your room once and after that he just knew how you wanted your room to be like, to me, he doesnt like too many pillows. He put some side when he cleaned it the next day and saw that i had water on my bedside table. He set a bottle of water and glass ready for me with a few small things. We will be leaving on 22nd february 2024. Our first time in langkawi and we have such a great time here, we will definitely be back. Andrew and janey from Perth australia.

Our time here was made even better by the yoga and sound bowl healing class. Shinny is an excellent teacher who caters to all abilities, and the surroundings are simply blissful. Its definitely an amazing experience to try a singing bowl session if you have ever thought about it.

The apartments are amazing. Each apartment is located in the forest, allowing guests to explore the wonderful world of local animals, not to mention the beautiful sea view. The apartments are equipped with tea and coffee, soft drinks and water. The staff are very friendly and made our stay very comfortable. We even got a room upgrade due to construction under our house. The hotel is located in a beautiful tourist area. This makes it easy to find places that the heart of the tourist like restaurants, shops, spas, etc. Unfortunately the hotel is close to a beach club that plays music almost all the time. That can be a bit annoying if you are looking for a quiet place. During our stay there were some construction works going on. But this is only a small con as such works need to be done at some point.

I had an amazing stay here. The staff is very kind and helpful, the room is beautiful with a great view and its so close to the beach. There is great food here at both restaurants and a wonderful spa. I will be back.

Ive stayed at aarr twice, and each time it gets better! Before moving on to the pool villas for the next two nights, my partner and i spent two nights in the tepor room. The rooms were wellequipped, and the entire team was very welcoming from the moment we arrived. On the bed made of bougainvillea and leaves, they even prepared a lovely welcome note for us. I adore that it is a sustainable resort! They have all the essential amenities, but if you need more, you can always call them to request more. The trip up and down to the villas is like a roller coaster because they are on a steep hill, high enough to enjoy breathtaking sea views among the lush trees. The atmosphere is really serene, and each day, you awaken to the peaceful sounds of nature, and you can also observe monkeys hanging out in the trees around you. Dont worry, they wont bother you, dont feed them. Overall, it was a fantastic experience, and if we were lucky, we would return for another three, four, five, and more if we were lucky!.

I had such a wonderful time at this retreat location! I want to thank the staff for being so gracious and friendly with me. They assisted me in organizing the local island hopping boat trip and were happy to shuttle me within the 600 meter radius. Beautiful setting with breathtaking views. Fantastic spa treatments and deli on meals! I hope to return.

I would definitely recommend it if youre looking for a nice, quiet, and relaxing stay, away from the hustle and reconnect with nature. Had a short but great experience with the team who were attentive, kind, and helpful! A welcome drink was served during checkin, they loaded our bags and drove us to our villa, dropped us off, and the staff member took us in and went through every corner of the villa to make sure we were fully aware of the facilities. The room was spacious, comfortable, and clean. The bed was very comfortable, and the kitchenette was nice to accommodate guests if they needed to reheat food or clean dishes. Family friendly, the housekeeping team visited twice a day, the second half to help us make sure no insects or mosquitoes would disrupt the rest of our evening. There were two options for breakfast depending on whether you wanted a vegan or the standard western or eastern meal. The view at the rimba restaurant was quite breathtaking, and the meal was elaborate and delicious.

5.0/510 Jan 2025

I would give this place a perfect 10 out of 10. I came here alone for my first solo trip. The room was wellmaintained. The staff was also attentive, which made my trip worthwhile. The food is affordable and delicious. Recommended for female solo travelers as the staff and environment made me feel very safe.

Very friendly service, secluded and comfortable rooms and delicious vegan food, especially the breakfast french toast! We took a cookery course where we made some great food i have now made mushroom rendang at home and although the ingredients arent quite as fresh, the recipe still holds strong! We also enjoyed two yoga classes and a sound bath with shinny, very relaxing and learning a lot!.

5.0/525 Dec 2024

Kesederhanaan, ruang besar dan kenyamanan. Kamar dengan pemandangan yang indah. Staf yang sangat baik. Makanan alami. Sayang sekali musik techno berasal dari hotel yang berdekatan dan sedikit merusak kedamaian. Kemungkinan pijat (luar biasa) dan kelas yoga. Tempat yang bagus.

5.0/521 Dec 2024

We had a great time in our rainforest suite here. The service and staff were excellent. The room was cozy, roomy, and had a refreshing scent. Every night, listening to the sounds of the jungle from the terrace was pleasant. The staff lights up mosquito coils on the terrace and provides cold water for you when the service is turned down, which is a nice touch. One thing to keep in mind is that when you leave the house, you need to schedule a little extra time for a ride up and down the hill. Although the staff will come to collect you right away, you rely on the buggy service.
