i heard that cable car will be off for maintenence on 12-27 AUG.. izzit true?? means that i cant play play at cable car?!?!?!?!?!?

owh is it?.. september reopen back?? hpflly tht im oppurtunate in this september

I think you should skip Seaview Hotel as the location is out of place (it is in Jalan Penarak). Both Langkasuka and Seaview are owned by Teow Soon Huat so Langkasuka Hotel is a better choice since it is walking distance to Langkawi Mall where a few duty free shops like Zeno, Idaman Suri are located. WanThai ( very nice Thai Malay restaurant is also located here).

Since budget is the main concerned, Baron Hotel is even nearer to the shopping areas and also the pasar malam.

Any contact no. to get cheap van/ mpv rental?.... Going there in August

anyone hv contact no. for cheap car rental at langkawi.??.. will be arriving at airport...

You all read or not Stimix post on 1st page?

Hi, I went Langkawi last yr oct, stay in Langkasuka Hotel.
Pro - 1) near to airport - as i need to return the car back to the airport, so i feel it save time as i can take my time to pack my stuffs, no so rush 2) i would said is a budget hotel, book it for less than RM100 per night for two person

Cons - 1) is bit out of town 2) if you wan a nice beach, this is not the place for you

Places must visit - Cable Car - the view is nice! and also wildlife park - enjoy feeding parrot, rabbit, donkey...is just fun!

yeahhh, i read it but just to make sure that walk in car rental is more cheaper than pre-booking.. is it stil have until now?

juz paid a deposit for a 3d2n package at Matta fair jb..rm319 for 2 person include cable car tix and 3day car rental (wira) and stay at chalet..izit cheap?

Price is about standard, not much cheaper really. Even if you venture yourself the price might be even cheaper if it is a low season but high season your price is definately cheaper. You didn't mention which chalet though.

Advantage is, you save time as it is prearranged instead of wasting time looking into this room and that room, looking for the elusive cheaper chalets, ha,ha,ha. So more time for jalan jalan but then again it is alos an adventure going around unplanned as I always do.

chalet is around cenang beach..got few choices...ab motel,sandy beach,delta motel ,tanjung malle and others...

+1

i myself had stayed in AB motel twice. clean and cheap. with your own 'private' beach too. haha!

Sorry dude, was kinda busy these few weeks. Here you go, not a professional when it comes to photography, plus forgot to bring my camera charger so all i had was my phone for snaps.

The private beach at langkasuka resort:

Why the sand look like a lot of tractor running around. he...

You can check the different by refer back my previous post.

Beach OK buit how's the water quality. I stayed in Langkasuka ~ 2003/04///Water very muddy & in 1007, Stopping by beside the beach just at the end of Langkawi airport super muddy too

i stayed in langkasuka..beach is not "swimmable"

stayed in pelangi..because is not really "swimmable" too.. end of the day i think best place is still the pool

Haha..Pelangi although located in Cenang but it's the strating point & just beside the muddy manmade bay there...so expected to be muddy too..Resorts further abit near the aquarium & those in Pantai Tengah much better.

I stayed in that hotel too during my last visit in Oct 09 but hor..that time i went to the beach..so quiet...think like less than 5 ppl (include me) only

yeah beach was ok, but the water, i would give a 6/10. Not really crystal clear but still ok la. Did not stop me from taking a short dip

@ozak, the tractor effects are from wind blowing and creating small dunes on the sand. Really no people set their foot on there nice~~

langkasuka resort re-opened??
