The Datai Resort in LangkawiIsland, Malaysia is one of the most prestigious resorts in the region of Southeast Asia.
This is a follow up story to my original story of The Datai resort. In this segment, I will share with you about the Datai’s rainforest and it’s surroundings in picture and videos.

Buggies are provided for guest in the event of rain or if you are not up to walking around. The villas are about five to ten minutes walk to the main resort building or to the beach.

The video above shows you the entire room and bathroom of one of the villas at the Datai. The sheer size of it justifies the price you are paying when you book the Datai villas.
Walkways around the Datai
The Datai walkways around the resort are tastefully done to blend in with nature and makes your exploration around the resort very soothing and relaxing.
At various parts, traditional paper umbrellas are available for the guests to use when it rains. From an observation here, most of the guest prefer to walk rather than use the buggy service provided.
Wooden walkways around the Datai
When you walk around the Datai, you will be pleased to know that everything here is absolutely well taken care of by the management in a bid to conserve the natural rainforest.
Wooden walkways are strategically placed around for the guest to enjoy the beauty here. Occasionally on your walks, you are bound to bump into resident monkeys, squirrels or even small lizards.
Bird lovers or bird watchers will also have a chance to hear and see some of the rare tropical birds of Langkawi.

Conclusion
If you are an avid rainforest and nature lover who would like a secluded, hassle free and luxurious breakaway from the concrete jungle, The Datai is one of the top rated places in the region to consider.
Prices are above average compared to the normal 5 Star resorts, but the impeccable service makes up for everything. I hope you enjoyed my videos on The Datai in Langkawi.
This hotel is understated luxury situated in the most amazing jungle populated with indigenous wildlife that is breathtaking to experience. Really wonderful and great experience.
