AT THE ST. REGIS LANGKAWI, you’re assured of the finest luxuries that hospitalit­y has to offer, from its iconic butler service to private beach cabana experience­s, to total wellness rituals. The world-class resort has also unveiled a series of enhanced dwellings that will give you the pleasure of knowing that even the smallest of details are tended to with extraordin­ary care.

During your sojourn at The St. Regis Langkawi, enjoy some of the largest suites and overwater villas in the country, offering panoramic views of the island’s unspoiled natural landscapes and surroundin­g ocean ‒ the Andaman Sea and a 100-million-year-old rainforest in a fully private setup.

With interiors designed by G.A Design and architectu­re by renowned architectu­re firm Gensler, the resort channels a classical contempora­ry aesthetic. Guests are welcomed into a dreamlike atmosphere where each moment thoughtful­ly blends indoor spaces with the outdoors. The resort’s stately abodes infuse European and Middle Eastern influences with a subtle colour palette of soft blues and beiges, playing up the stunning views of the surroundin­g landscape. Islamic arches, mashrabiya-inspired screening, and large private courtyards embrace the design’s axial symmetry, giving way to a garden oasis populated with date palms, allamanda and bougainvil­lea.

Revel in the spacious environs of your overwater villa with private pool, facing the sunset and Andaman Sea. Arise every morning to the vibrant combinatio­n of colours from the white sandy beaches, clear emerald green waters and green foliage just outside your window. Each of the three Sunset Over-water Villas, along with the Sunset Royal Villa, boasts a dedicated decked terrace and infinity pool, strategica­lly designed to amplify its secluded locality.

Enormous floor-to-ceiling glass panel windows bestow an open and airy feel, allowing guests to delight in their seclusion while being at one with nature. Inside, guests will appreciate the plush king-sized bed with 300-thread count sheets in fine Egyptian cotton. Complete with separate living and dining rooms, kitchenett­e and a spacious walk-in wardrobe, the bespoke interior is a welcoming refuge after a day spent exploring the town.

As part of the Family Traditions at The

St. Regis Langkawi, a selection of enriching activities is prepared for the whole family to experience together, including welcome amenities for kids, the Little Chefs Programme, Yoga and Batik painting for kids. Additional­ly, guests can treat themselves to the luxurious rituals at Iridium Spa or exquisite dining experience­s under the resort’s Dining Beyond offering ‒ a romantic sunset dinner in a private cabana or on the beach with a breathtaki­ng ocean view and sand between your toes. Preparing your dinner just next to your table, your personal chef will surprise you with a five-course gourmet menu paired with exquisite wine for a truly extraordin­ary culinary experience. AM
