Beachside eco resort on the pretty Malaysian island of Langkawi
The Frangipani Langkawi is a beachfront eco-resort of rooms, villas and chalets on Pantai Tengah, on Malaysia's Langkawi island. It sits along a quieter stretch of white sand on the Andaman Sea, a ten-minute walk from Pantai Cenang's restaurants and shops. Rooms, villas and chalets are set through tropical gardens, most with private balconies or verandas and semi-outdoor bathrooms. Two beachfront pools, one fresh and one saltwater, sit alongside a jacuzzi and a stretch of pristine clean beach.
Join the free daily eco-walk through the grounds and learn about the more than 300 sustainability measures behind the resort's reputation as one of Malaysia's greenest hotels, composting, rainwater reuse, and an organic farm you can tour. Take a snorkelling trip out to the Marine Park, ride the cable car up Gunung Mat Cincang, or stop by the kids' corner to see the stingless bees and rabbits. Watch the tide go out in the evening, with the archipelago's smaller islands visible offshore as the light fades.
