Reviews for The Frangipani Langkawi Resort & Spa
Review 1:Cleaning was almost non existant.we stayed 4 nights and housekeeping just made the bed without cleaning at all. Not very central to cenang not good price/value ratio.
Review 2:Accomodation/rooms very pleasant. On the beach front, very nice.
Review 3:The dinner menu needs some gluten free light meals and stated as such, a little more range would have been good.Also there was one morning 3 stray unfriendly dogs on the beach which spoilt the ambience
Review 4:Staff were great and a quiet location . Choice of 2 pools and beach was good. Great breakfast
Review 5:Location - far from shopping area . Garden dead - no sprinklers system , Area where your sunchair is supposed to stand is 70 % sand , no grass. Reception have a dirty fishpond - green with no fish. The whole property needs paint and a lot of repairing. It is run-down . It was a long time ago maybe nice but not now!! No english tv canals , no internet-facility , very difficult wi-fi (only in lobby with only a few chairs to sit ) For the same amount we could have stayed in a much better hotel.
Review 6:Staff was friendly and trying their best to help but the english TV channels could'nt work and very difficulty finding a wi-fi spot.
Review 7:Dont go expecting manicure lawns and everything immaculate, this is a eco resort. Some things were a little dated.
Review 8:I like the fact they practise eco values. Staff are just great, rooms are clean, shower under the stars is cool.
Review 9:- as for all langkwai resorts run by local and lack of international standards and competition, hence no real effort for customer service and the price do not match with expected value. - slow or no wifi at public place or rooms - very poor concierge staff . He asked me to carry the bags with him to the room. - langkwai itself is good to see but not stunning island, since my last visit i can see no much development going on.9
Review 10:Swimming pool very nice and the resturant provides good food like burger. the location is very good near to famous cenang beach very good security staff and helpful
Review 11:WiFi only at lobby area.. ( this kind of resort need to provide wifi in room as well) Room service closes at 10:30 p.m. So be prepared and take care of your drinking water because they will not provide water also at night. Mosquito and spider are common. Food pathetic and drinks are OK. . Though less price. Breakfast same all 3 days.. No change.. Very boring. Staff few are good in restaurant and few just don't take care.. In simple words this hotel has gained recognition but now are just pathetic with respect to customers.. They have there own house rules which need to be followed. Hotel management need to understand that they are not budget but a 4 star hotel which needs to take care of guest small comfort issue..
Review 12:This resort is at the beach and nothing else. And nice pool
Review 13:Breakfast is average not our tast . Avoid to rent a car from a nearby car hire shop as they have poor car and ripped my deposit. If you want rent a car it is recommended to hire that from airport .
Review 14:Nearest to a clean beautiful beach, swimming pools.
Review 15:Nothing
Review 16:Private beach, nice staff and service, sustainable resort, lots of green and flowers, quiet surrounding but close to cenang, good food choices, spacey rooms, salt water pool, plenty of sunbeds.
Review 17:The private pool in the villa was too deep! Almost 1.8m depth which was obviously not very enjoyable for typically petite Asians. Aircon is a little weak, not cold enough, may consider installing fan inside the room.
Review 18:Excellent service by offering free shuttle service around seminyak. I could have breakfast delivered to my room inside of having it at the breakfast restaurant. Strong wifi. Prompt service. Hotel just 5 mins walk from main/shopping street.
Review 19:Many Rooms with Poor view Interior Style is old fashioned therefore renovation is required
Review 20:Space outside for relaxing is good Breakfast is beautiful
Review 21:Missed opportunity for paddleboarding (too many motor watersports)
Review 22:Everything! Excellent in all ways & love the combination of eco friendly conservation, quality and rustic appeal
Review 23:Staff in the hotel restaurant was slo. WIFI in Mentari restaurant either was very slow or did not work at all. At least if you provide WIFI service it must work but not provided on paper.
Review 24:The hotel itself is very nice and the territory is very green, the beach is fabulous and not crowded. A really fantastic place to relax from work and routine life.
Review 25:For room cleanliness I would put 6 from 10. Moreover we had problem with poorly working aircon in 104 room.
Review 26:The location of the hotel is close to beach.
Review 27:Poor Wifi and take away breakfast
Review 28:Sea view and suite next to salt water pool. Great loaction to walk to beach and local restaurants. Staff very friendly. Only 15 mins to Airport.
Review 29:Food was pretty awful in general Band singing cheesy songs Towels running out Breakfast food not being replenished fast enough to cater for guests
Review 30:Based on the beach Bathrooms were ok
Review 31:Attitude of the staff at the reception, poor service at the restaurant.
Review 32:Clean, simple rooms close to a beautiful beach. Great food, sumptuous breakfast.
Review 33:Breakfast a little light but ok for a few days. Villas are a bit old. Staff not overly friendly.
Review 34:Great location and very nice beach with fantastic sunset. Beautiful garden.
Review 35:Room no wifi, only lobby and restaurant got, but connection very poor. The facilities all old, and most of them damaged. The bulb in the room burnt, asked the staff to change it, but when we wanna leave they also didn't show up. The pool water also dirty. They said our room included welcome drinks, but they just gave us the coupon and asked us go and get it in the bar, what kind of welcome drink is this??? And the restaurant is dirty too, when we having our breakfast, many flies around us, and many birds eating the food left by the customer due to the staff didn't keep it immediately but left it for very long time. Our bed room the bed sheet also dirty, we saw some blood and dirt on our bed sheet, so disgusting. It only consider as 2/3 stars hotel but charge us 5 stars hotel price, totally over charge. No worth the price at all. I will not come back here, and will asked my friends and family not to choose this hotel.
Review 36:Only location is good, that's all.
Review 37:1. The air-con in my room 205 is as loud as a train, complained to the front desk but no use. I have to take care of the air-con by myself. 2. The staff cleaned the room but did not refill the toliet paper. 3. It take nearly 1.5 hour to serve lunch.
Review 38:1. Resort Location is OK. 2. Security guards are very friendly. 3. Carpark is for free. 4. Food price is reasonable. 5. Beach is clean. 6. Bathroom is quite unique.
Review 39:Rooms are a bit old but it didn't bother us because they were very clean; Breakfast is not as various as we would expect and food in the bar/restaurant is not very delicious
Review 40:Hotel has nice property; great surrounding and spacious; great location; great beach; it is very clean; relaxing and calm; our 2 years old child enjoyed environment and swimming pool; very responsive and hepful staff; Overall, very pleasant and relaxing holiday
Review 41:They upgrade us from std room to villa which is great but we have to pay more too. Exceeded our budget a bit.Bfast is alright but should be improve taste wise.
Review 42:Closeness to pantai cenang. Near food outlets and shops. Private beach. Stayed in the villa. Love it. Wish a longer stay. The resort is eco friendly and provide free tour to see around the resort. Has got 2 pool areas ~ normal and salt water. Nice restaurant overlooking beach.
Review 43:Tired resort. Rooms need upgraded as do facilities. Beds terrible and sheets in bed stained. Restaurant live music terrible and incredibly loud.
Review 44:Kids liked the beach.
Review 45:In need of updating, food relatively average, deserts are not good although I feel this is a general trend in hotels on the island. It is expensive for what it is. The view is it's saving grace
Review 46:Good location near Cenang beach - much happens here. Beach was nice albeit a little dirty at times, great salt water pool and the outside showers are fun.
Review 47:Very few activities - read two! No one in reception new about them either. Gave us misleading information. Breakfast is terrible. Even the limited choice is of questionable quality. Not even a hot enough water for tea or hot coffee. Restaurant food is worse than food court. Served me fish that was off and when I returned it, they didn't even apologise. Christmas and New year party was ok but absolutely madly overpriced for what it was.
Review 48:Location is great.
Review 49:Food was poor, service was slow, paid extra for a sea view villa and wasn't much different to the partial sea view, very difficult to lock the villa door, I'm sure it had its heyday but needs a serious overhaul, shame because the location is beautiful
Review 50:Views and location were lovely
Review 51:Being an eco friendly resort is not an excuse for looking shabby. This resort is totally overpriced, for RM1,800 per night I should be getting a 5 star resort not a kampung! Also no resort wide Internet, not even in the room. And one night we couldn't sleep in the second room as the Aircon was broken. Again for that price I would expect a stocked fridge in the room.
Review 52:Location and the beach are good. Breakfast choice wasn't vast but quality was ok.
Review 53:Breakfast Unstable wifi and nothing in room TV channels Travel agent No turn down service Unpunctual spa staff
Review 54:Location Beach Christmas event Staff Price of food
Review 55:Some additional UV bug zappers in the beach front dining area would add to the comfort of late evening dining.
Review 56:Special thanks to Nik (General Manager) & Aziiman (F/B Manager) for ensuring we had a wonderful stay. Our accommodation overlooking the excellent salt-water pool. Comprehensive breakfast buffet. Nearby shopping and wide choice of restaurants. Convenient to airport with price controlled taxis.
Review 57:Total waste - the place run down. We checked out the next day. it was total waste of our one vacation day!!
Review 58:The staffs are quite helpful and nothing else
Review 59:Lack of in house beach sport facilities.
Review 60:Excellent location. A feel of nature yet comfort. Clean beach. Good varieties of Breakfast. Excellent View!!
Review 61:Parts of the hotel building need some TLC (tender loving care and refurbishment). The internet connection was also patchy certain times. Should also do something about the bugs & flies in the hotel rooms / dining areas; can leave certain guests less than comfortable
Review 62:The rustic-feel of the chalets & the warm hospitality of the staff. The front desk personnel were very accommodating when we did not managed to check out from the hotel at the designated time due to our late arrival coming back from our island hopping! (so thank you for that). Additionally, the spa was really nice and gave me the much needed relaxing massage...! I also like the proximity to the beach and pool facilities.
Review 63:Everything was exellent. From staff to location, beach, pools, very diverse breakfast and services. The room is big, with a nice bathroom and terace.
Review 64:Breakfast buffet could have been better in terms of choice of local food. Seating by pool near beach bar could do with comfy cushions.
Review 65:Family orientated resort, staff very friendly and helpful. Resort very clean especially the pool and surrounding areas.
Review 66:1) Our room is quite far from the lobby and no buggy service provided. My elderly mother had to walk quite far and then climb the stairs to reach the room. However the staff provided us with a wheelchair for her. 2) No internet whatsoever in the room. Wifi is only available in the lobby and restaurants. Management may have the own reasons for this but I sincerely thinks it would be nice to have wireless internet in the room since the phone coverage in our room was not good either. 3) I really look forward for breakfast in every hotels I stayed in. Honestly disappointed with the spread. We stayed in another hotel before Frangipani and liked their breakfast better. However the view we had during our meal is great.
Review 67:We love the room, pools and jakuzzi. Booked a family room and the view is awesome. Staffs are really helpful.
Review 68:No wifi in the rooms an excerption compared to any other hoteld in the world I have stayed. Mosquitos all around.
Review 69:Nice villas, good breakfast. Location
Review 70:The staff were unhelpful and said we should have mentioned this before. We were enjoying the island therefore didn't notice the level of uncleanliness beforehand.
Review 71:The hotel charged us extra as the facilities were not clean and we had to move rooms. This was an upgraded room that we got charged extra for! We are still unhappy with the results and the hotel and booking.com are treating the matter as if it's being resolved! Very unhappy
Review 72:The rooms ( 305 and 125 ) are not worth for money. Room ammenites was replace partially ( some looks like used soap / cotton bud. Toilet did not work well and bath tub stuck as well.
Review 73:Front office staff was quite friendly but your bell boy are better.
Review 74:breakfast was plentiful and lots of options but the quality of food didn't match up to the quality of a la carte meals. i.e. no natural juice, a lot of fried stuff, cereal options were sugary! would have been nice to have more kids activities laid on or a play area. kids also did a craft activity which was ok but over-priced and the leader had no english and no rapport with the kids
Review 75:friendly,helpful staff, great room - big and luxurious, lovely pools for adults and kids, right on the beach, lots of flowers and trees everywhere. we went with Neezam to feed their chickens, ducks and geese, and fish, which was fun!
Review 76:Not enough socket outlets for mobile charging and electric appliances in rooms No wifi in rooms
Review 77:Various selection for breakfast. Food is excellent. For dinner, restaurant is excellent with reasonable price. Still memorize the delicious food there.
Review 78:We stayed for 5 nights. The breakfast spread was almost similar everyday.
Review 79:The beach view was great. Clean room. Love the green initiatives that the hotel adopts around the hotel.
Review 80:The bed and the mattress very hard to sleep on.
Review 81:The beach and the room toilet great set up like taking a shower in the forest.it's just a walking distance to everything you need.
Review 82:Stay away from the main routes. The accommodation prices RM1818 when booking 10 % service charge is excluded. But we pay RM2000. We loss RM182 and check in on after 4.15pm.
Review 83:An outdoor swimming pool and the beach.
Review 84:Interior of room is run down, breakfast limited choice.
Review 85:Location is strategic, just beside nice sandy beach. Good layout of each room and sufficient facilities.
Review 86:Improvement can be done to kids pool, like slides, my kids miss that
Review 87:tranquil, lots of privacy...lots of shopping nearby..family room was spacious and that's great
Review 88:The room rate for the beach front villa would get you into a suite in the Shangri-La in KL (read: total luxury). However, the amenities, the equipment, the condition of the "villas" do not even closely justify the price. Breakfast unimaginative.
Review 89:Location is perfect directly at an excellent beach. Super friendly staff.
Review 90:Could hear the phone ringing, and activitities in the next room. Perhaps the walls are thin. This interrupted our sleep
Review 91:The service and hospitality was excellent The rooms were lovely, clean and very comfortable. Love the location and easy access to the beautiful beach.
Review 92:My family room is far back behind and its creepy especially when you got back late to room. Breakfast buffet should have more varieties. The management should upgrade the resort as the building looks old.
Review 93:Location very convenient, near to water sport activities, Langkawi Aiport & eatery outlets. The customer service of their staffs especially in Coco Bar very astounding. One of them, Ms Azliana even attended to my injured son.
Review 94:No wifi in rooms and nothing happening in the hotel in the evenings.
Review 95:Walk from your spacious room straight onto a quiet almost private beach. Fabulous views from the restaurant. Perfect place for a " get away from it all" relaxing break.
Review 96:Location is perfect, a bit away from the busy main street of Pantai Tengah, but not too far to walk there for some dinner, etc. The beach here is less crowded and very relaxed with a great view and the own pool is great to relax, too. The whole area is very nice and green with lots ofs trees. Rooms (had a villa with garden view) are spacious and comfortable with huge beds and we loved the outdoor shower!
Review 97:Resort is a bit run down and tired
Review 98:Staff were great, always ready to help. They arranged a birthday cake for my 2 year old free of charge. Beach is lovely
Review 99:The amount of rubbish that was washed up on to the beach and the speed boats that went up and down with the parasailing which was noisy and contaminated the water
Review 100:Lovely hotel with very friendly staff
Review 101:They should also consider indian food varieties in the breakfast. the gym is not maintained properly and there is no basic equipment for ABS workout and others basic equipment for other workouts.
Review 102:The staffs and the service.
Review 103:Great location at the quieter end of the beach. The resort itself has a genuine tropical feel about it. Really feels in harmony with it's surroundings.
Review 104:No response on early check in request but much delay in check in No restriction for smoking on hotel lobby
Review 105:Over all location and ambience Good breakfast and restaurant location
Review 106:Wifi not working all the time at Mentari restaurant.
Review 107:Quiet, clean private beach, clean and big rooms, huge buffet for breakfast, good food. Perfect place to rest at the end of our journey in Malaysia.
Review 108:The mosquito, but must remember that this is all natural.. So they come together with the environment friendly way being.
Review 109:Loved the way they manage the hotel all the natural possible, the coexist with all the natural beauty of Langkawi... And the location has the most perfect spot for watching the sunset! The staff is very very friendly! All marvelous!
Review 110:It's needs a bar or waiter service if your staying by the salt water pool, too far to walk every time you wanted a cool drink. Also not all rooms are nice 114 horrible , 143 lovely
Review 111:The location of our room to the pool & beach
Review 112:There was a problem getting to our room from the reception area because of the thunderstorm. They didn't have umbrellas at the reception. After making us wait for 15 minutes, they loaned us some umbrellas from the office.
Review 113:Room was comfortable, bathroom was great with the rain and handheld shower. The addition of the salt water pool was great.
Review 114:Only a small thing, but the safe didn't work. They were happy to fix but requested we were present whilst it was being fixed. Fortunately everyone was so trustworthy we didn't use it. The sporting facilties (gym and volleyball) could be improved, but that's my individual issue.
Review 115:Location was great. Close enough to Cenang beach to be walkable, far enough away to be quiet. Staff were excellent, rooms were very clean and the food at the restaurant was some of the best that i've had!
Review 116:Quiet, relaxing, perfect for a chill out stay. 5 days is about right. Two pool locations meant if the main pool was busy you had another one at the end of the development to use.
Review 117:Some room of improvements for the breakfast. Too little choices provided.
Review 118:I love almost every single aspect that this resort provided. I'd travel to so many places in Malaysia and Oversea and by far this resort gave the best hospitality for the Malaysian standard. Kipidap Guys..
Review 119:Did not appreciate the fact that there was no shower head attached to the toilet seat. It's just a flexible steel pipe. The garden area could use more lighting as it becomes very dark in the night.
Review 120:We stayed in the garden villa which was a spacious one bedroom unit with a small corridor leading to the bathroom. There is a separate shower area attached with every villa with a tree inside :) They are not wrong when they say that it's the greenest resort. There is easy access to the beach. The pool and restaurant are also good.
Review 121:No wifi in room Tolite not privacy The tock the money from my credit card in booking the manction in the booking.com i will pay when i stay Miskitos in room
Review 122:Location nice view
Review 123:Incredible dirty beach.Cannot swim among bottles, pillows, shoes etc. Not so well taken care of garden, lawn etc.
Review 124:Nice staff and clean pool. We had a great room by the beach.
Review 125:Having to walk so far to look for a convenient store or super mart. Too many old folks, less younger couples, sometimes quiet and boring.
Review 126:We booked one of the garden view rooms but on getting there we got upgraded to a beach view room for free! It was really nice, loved the nice Jacuzzi and the outside bath. Overall I'd say its not that excellent but its good.
Review 127:No Internet connection in rooms and villas.
Review 128:Very beautiful beach and very nice villa, clean, friendly staff, very professional, very good food and amazing location I will never think in another hotel if I come back again.
Review 129:Buildings need freshening up , limited restaurant choice, breakfast buffet not always topped up.
Review 130:Beach , style of properties although showing signs age,
Review 131:The breakfast was lousy. Even the local dishes were sub par. This is surprising as the in room dining food we ordered was quite nice.
Review 132:The beach was excellent. The rooms were spacious, clean and well maintained. The reception staff were very helpful and managed to help us to change rooms so that we got adjacent rooms. The sunset views from the beach were phenomenal.
Review 133:The food are average and should have variety at least 3-4 different menu everyday. The quality of taste changes.
Review 134:I liked the privacy and surrounded by all green view. Feel secure and easy access/next to beaches and restaurants and shopping malls.
Review 135:Some day the breakfast was good but other days it was boring.
Review 136:Great Stay. Like most resorts in the area this one is also big but its very well managed. Staff are always there to help you out. the rooms are big with everything that you need. The 2 pools are small but with the beach being so close it really does not matter. Best place to relax and watch the sunset with para sailing going one on the beach.
Review 137:The resort is in a crowded area and near to the airport so periodically the peace is shattered by jet engines. When we arrived we were given a suite that smelled of drains. We asked to be moved and were "upgraded" to a room that had its own problems - minimal sound insulation from next door, leaking toilet. We chose to move elsewhere.
Review 138:Lovely beach and salt water pool. Management refunded us 50% after we cancelled our last five nights at short notice.
Review 139:First night they put us in the wrong villa and then had to move to another villa. staff service was very slow at the restaurant and Bar. Wifi signal was terribly slow! The aircon needed servicing or replacing as it was making a noise. The bath needs replacing as its very bad condition. Villa 102
Review 140:Right on the beach and villas nice a private
Review 141:We had multiple cockroaches and although I would have been understanding with one, we were only there 5 days. The hotel did not deal with the situation very well by sending housekeeping who told us "they're not dangerous".
Review 142:Loved the fact that this is an eco resort
Review 143:Breakfast food is tasteless & very poor, room lighting very weak , furniture look old , Wifi only in lobby and restaurant .
Review 144:The location is excellent , the pool and the beach are amazing , feeling very relax in the resort , easy to find transportation.
Review 145:poor maintenance...smelly toilet and room..have too use own perfume to spray the room..not like in picture at all... poor breakfast. no variety .. dirty glasses...but f&b staff refused to agree and replace...
Review 146:The location of the resort is fine.
