Sheraton Langkawi

for some reason this hotel was available for SPG points redemption during for the dates of our choise (and they usually aren't!), so we decided to give this hotel a try (also, points redemption was much more cheaper than redeeming a stay at the Andaman wahahahahhahah). this is another member of the Starwood Hotels and Resorts in Langkawi. the hotel is located along the way to Telaga Harbour from Padang Matsirat.

to get around the hotel grounds you need to do alot of walking, so they provide you with free buggy service to get around. just pick up the phone and give them a ring. they give you a map so you don't get lost. of course, for those who love the exercise, you're free to walk =D.

waiting for the buggy to take us to our room

our stop, top left

we were given an upgrade for the room. oh i was seriously momentarily speechless right after we unlocked the door and stepped into our 'room'. we were upgraded to the 'executive suite' - a bit too much for only just the two of us, but hey, i'm not complaining, aite? =D =D. pictures don't do justice. it beats our room at the Andaman, obviously.

our room door *a must have photo haha*

*jeng jeng jeng* the executive suite

this totally blew me away... our own lounge

... the bedroom...

boleh tgk tv sambil mandi =P

a walk-in-hallway to the bathroom

i'm in love with the bathroom <3

complete with its own tub jacuzzi

our own private balcony

According to their website:

The executive suite is a comfortable one-bedroom suite with a living room, dry bar and long private balcony, located in close proximity to the pool deck and beach front. Other features include an oversized bathroom with shower and bathtub jacuzzi, timber flooring and modern room facilities.

but i must say, there isn't much to boast about when it comes to the swimming pool and Sheraton's beach; the Andaman wins this category hands down.

note the huge rocks

lazing in the lounge chair

the desolate 'sandy' beach at the far end in the pic. too many beach creatures

the swimming pool. it has a pool bar over at the far end

verdict:
1. ooh i definitely enjoyed my stay here. hahaha. no complaints from me =D
