Awana Porto Malai, Langkawi

my very 1st hotel review~
just wanted to share the great staying experience...
got to start my review with a short story, hope you guys won't mind it~ ^^

we started our family trip last year...
this year, we make it again to Langkawi~
that's why i called it as Family Trip 2.0... =D
when we finalized the venue, my pretty sis found a great deal in MyDEAL...
3D2N stay in Garden View Deluxe Room + Daily Breakfast + Island Hopping for 2 @ Awana Porto Malai Langkawi for RM388nett...
OMG!! what a great deal...
of course we bought and started to look forward for the day to come...

18.03.2012, 4 in the morning~
we started our journey from KL...
reached Awana Porto Malai Langkawi at about 4.30 evening...
wau! 12 hours of traveling? not really...
we just taking our own sweet time, no hurry...
before we checked in, we actually went for lunch and also went to the Langkawi Landmark -- Eagle Square...
okay~ enough for the grandmother's story...
let's check out the hotel~
when our car reached the entrance...
there was a handyman helping us to bring down our luggages...
then, he will wait at the lobby, for us to check in and bring our luggages into our rooms...
5 stars service...
stepped into their lobby~
1st impression was HUGE and cozy...
center of the lobby...
while my pretty sis and baby sis were waiting at the reception...
i took the oppurnity to walk around~
the environment there was so nice...
the directory...
they do not have their private beach like others beach resort in Langkawi...
but the view from the boardway was great!
their own jetty for guests who own boats...
they have quite a few restaurants around the hotel...
i believe they are all under the same management...
looking back to the hotel from the boardway
i really love this shot~
light house and the boardway... too bad we can't go up to the top of the light house...
enough for the surrounding environment...
let's move on to the hotel room...
i would like to apologize on the poor quality photo...
i didn't realize my hand shaked when i took the shot~ =(
Garden View Deluxe Room
spacious, cozy and nice...
2 queen size bed in the room~
i like their design like a studio room...
washing basin outside the bathroom~
a big mirror on the wall...with coffee making facilities at the side~
so lucky i got a balcony attached to my room...
we took 5 rooms...
2 of the rooms didn't have a balcony...
balcony always the best place for the smoker...
from the balcony...
i can actually see the pool...
a real garden view... XD
after some rest... we walked around the hotel~
and decided to sit down at one of the cafe to enjoy a cup of drink...
view from where i sat~
back view from where i sat...
that must be the sea view rooms...
the next morning, we had our breakfast with a breathtaking view~
love the early morning fresh air with the sound of the wave...
relaxing and calming...
breakfast with the morning sea view~
we really enjoyed ourselves there...
their service was so good...
their breakfast was good...
we tried their buffet dinner... was not bad~
wanted to try their ala carte dinner...
maybe next visit?
if you have enough budget and looking for a place to relax...
this is the one!
Awana Porto Malai Langkawi ain't new, but with the service and facilities...
it make every cent you pay worthwhile...^^
