i'm goin there coming dis monday for 4D3N. will try to call see they can drive to airport or not cos i'm goin by airasia.

its my 2nd visit. but previous i go on CNY 2yrs back.
get a p.wira aeroback price ard rm250! and de time we wan return to de person they accused us to bang their car & caused a lot scratch mark. lucky we snap pics & record de car condition on de moment they pass de car to us.

my friends and i (10 people) will be going to Langkawi on 22nd September for 4D3N.

Langkasuka resort is having a promotion, rm83 pernite for deluxe room. i was wondering...is it BIG enough to squeeze all of us in one room???

we planned to rent a van as well to ferry all of us together instead of going in 2 separate cars.


can someone give me a phone numbers of van rentals?


and...which is the nicest beach ???

during low season, Wira Kelisa can be as low as RM50 per 24 hours
squeeze it till the max

squeeeeeze to RM150 if its weekdays

car rental agent will find u once u step outta the arrival halls
dun worry about car rental

shud be adequate if u guys dun sleep
their room are damn big compare to Pantai Cenang's budget motel
car rental agent will find u once u step outta the arrival halls
dun worry about car rental

Wow! Ok i didn't know the prices can go so low!! Thanks so much for the information you guys!! =o)

Basically im just really worried about the deposit...Would they really allow me to drive the car away without using anything as a collateral??

Normal car rental deposit/collateral is 1 day rental rate..so if u get RM150 for 3 days...just add RM50 for a refundable deposit which will be refunded once to return the key.

yerp....... im also add rm50 for deposit n refundable when return the key........ dont worry......

whch duty free shop is the best for getting liquor, choco and also ciggies...

im staying for 4days...so...can buy tonnes of it

It's just like Giant/Tesco/Carrefour...certain items are cheapers than another...anyway the pricing almost the same wth abit diff of RM0.10 to as high as RM10 or more depedning on the products u buy.

did not pay any deposit
just full payment and drove away

and make sure u finish it there lol

Why my previous post didn't appear, i'm going this friday anyone going this friday pm me, we sama sama rent car so we can bargain more,

Anyways one person is permited to bring put 1l of liquor, things like yomeishu which is classified as health product u can bring out unlimited, and fags u could bring out one carton which is equivalent to one 10 packs. Thats it.

Sometimes the customs don't bother to check, but if they check and you just bought one litre it's ok.

How to not let them check, go in with one group of many people when everyone is going in so they normally have 2 /3 people so they odn;t bother to check everyone

so what's fun to do in langkawi?? I have not been there since i was 5!!!!

where should i visit, and where is not worth visiting??

i heard there's a really nice thai restaurant called 'Barn Thai'.. Anybody heard of it?? It's in the middle of the jungle i think..you have to walk about 500m to het to the restaurant..

lot of activity u can do there.......
normally people will go to historical place 1st.........
makam mahsuri, beras terbakar, telaga tujuh....etc. lot of story u can get.
but for the 1st time, it ok, but for me, it boring coz already been there before.
i go for island hoping early this month, really syok especially seeing eagle feeding.
island hoping is go to pulau dayang bunting, eagle feeding n swimming at pulau beras basah.
lot of big eagle there n white eagle is soo big n cun.......get lot of picture there....
next time, maybe planning go to pulau payar marine park.
i hear must spend 1day there. would like to try snorkling.
n dont forget to try cable car. really "Gayat" up there...huhuhuh

for food, i dont know, just eat at pantai chenang n eat "ikan Jenahak 3rasa" n pay rm57 for it, just for 2people...
but it worth, never try expensive fish before..........

Yes Barn Thai is a nice luxury restaurant in Langkawi. Its in the middle of mangrove. Expect Rm200++ for 2 person. 1 more restaurant you can have lunch or dinner is Fish Farm & Floating Restaurant(Hole in the wall). Quite nice view and experience.

Direction : Go to Kilim Jetty, and call them to take you at Jetty. They will come and pick you at jetty to the restaurant which require about 5-10min boat ride. Free boat service. The prices is a bit pricey but lower than Barn Thai.After eat, you can visit fish floating farm for Rm5 per person. They will feeding fish and make tour for you.

Wow..i didn't know Barn Thai was so expencive wan arh..i thought only about 60++ per person!!

Hey thanks so much for leading me to the hole in the wall website!! I think i will go there for lunch..No point going at night la..no view to see oso =op

How's the food there??? Roughly how much per person??

What I eat my last visit, Grouper, rice, tomyam, lobster and also mantis prawn. All for 2 person except lobster for total Rm119. The food was not best in Langkawi but scenery and experience was great.

Add:

The best seafood I guess is Wonderland Restaurant at The shop beside Bella Vista hotel.

Question...is wonderland restaurant halal or pork free?...thanks!

When I go there, many Langkawi people suggested me to go there. Since I'm Muslim, I'm asking them about Halal or not, they just answer Halal and its 100% pork free. There are a lot of Malay eat there.

just return from langkawi yesterday.
rented an old type p.iswara 4days rm120, nonid deposit.

stayed at Langkasuka Beach Resort for 4D3N(nonid deposit too). hotel & room looks old. but the beach not bad, sit there every evening & nite and de last day only get to see sunsets cos too many clouds/haze blocked. breakfast...so so only.

1st day cant enjoy de cable car cos bad weather, so postpone to 2nd day. nice ride & view.lucky me cos on 13 & 14 the cable car service will close for monthly maintenance. but dun buy souvenirs there cos i found exactly same thing sell at town more cheaper.

3rd day went for island hoping, rm40 to 3 island - pregnant maiden lake-beware a lot monkey lurking ard, eagle feeding- sit in the boat watch those eagle flying & catch their food, wet rice island- very nice beach! but manage to swim awhile only cos rain suddenly.

duty free shop at langkasuka hotel(kuah town), spent almost rm600 to get liquor, ciggs , chocs.
get a pair nike shoes with 35% sale!
lunch & dinner also at those Chinese restaurant so not too expensive
