“Luxurious, Private and Excellent food !”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 February 2012

people found this review helpful

Hi There! I spent wonderful week in this resort. Staff is very willing and careful. Food is perfect. Location is very private with the best beach on the island. I fed their varan in private pool. They rent you nice small cabriolet Peugeot 207 and you can use it for your trips through the island. Langkawi is definitely the best holiday-island of Malaysia. Hang-bridge, makaques feeding and island hopping with the private beach sunbathing are MUST. My profile photo is from the private island near langkawi.

“Excellent hotel, staff and ambiance”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 9 February 2012 via mobile

We have stayed at the TJR 3 Times and even brought our parents in 2010 for our engagement trip. At this moment one of my brothers is also staying there with his girlfriend. We usually stay at hotels like secrets or fout seasons, but this hotel is better. The journey from The Netherlands is long but worth it.

The plusses:
- location, rooms and staff = excellent
- Max number of kids and a no childrens pool
- food (also for vegetarians)
- BBQ on beach, sunset champaign
- All in
- string Music
- THE Spa

The negatives:
-None

“Another holiday in paradise!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 February 2012

people found this review helpful

We've just returned from our 4th stay at the Tanjung Rhu and, thanks to the excellent customer care of new manager Enzo Rulli, it's been our best yet. The whole location, ambience and general atmosphere exudes tranquility and serenity, helped in part by the quiet diligence of the wonderful staff there. It doesn't really feel like a hotel or a resort as there's so much space and the different areas are subtly sited within beautiful, quiet gardens with their decked pools, rockeries and huge casuarina and palm trees; swimming in the Olympic-sized adult pool, parallel to the beach and sea, is just paradise! The lagoon pool, with its refreshing waterfall at one end and view of the sandbar and turtle rock at the other, is reason enough to take the short stroll from one end of the beach to the other, maybe stopping off for a drink at the sunset terrace on the way. When on holiday anywhere else, we want to go out and try different restaurants and locations but here the food served in the Rhu, Saffron and Sands (not to mention the beach barbecue) is excellent, imaginative and varied, so we never even think of going elsewhere. The Mangrove boat trips we've done with both Zohar and Fendi were a real education, thanks to their knowledge and passion on the subject. We are really looking forward to our next trip back to Langkawi - thank you to everyone there at the Tanjung Rhu for our lovely holiday! The Veritys, UK

Room Tip: Higher floors have a better view over the gardens/beach but obviously there would be fewer stairs to...

“Excellent service in a beautiful location”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 1 February 2012

people found this review helpful

We initially booked to stay 8 nights for our honeymoon, but after reading some of the reviews on TA , we decided to split our stay in Langkawi between the Tanjung Rhu and The Danna.
In hindsight we ahold have just stuck with our original plan. Yes the rooms were better at the Danna ( newer, more lush) but the service, the food and ambience were much better at the Tanjung Rhu. All the staff seemed to know it was our honeymoon and really made us feel special. We opted or the all inclusive package and the food was fab- although not sure if we got our value from it, esp as we did he beach barbecue one night which by the way was excellent. We also did the Mangove tour and our guide Zohar was brilliant. This resort is large and great they had an adults only pool (which had an amazing view) which was very tranquil. The resort is going through an upgrade and we'll def be back once completed!

Dear pomelop,
It was wonderful to hear that we were able to make your honeymoon such a special occasion in such a beautiful location. Thank you for mentioning that we compared so well to other resorts on the island. It was great that you chose the All Inclusive Package as it really is very good value and even after taking the Beach BBQ, believe me you received excellent value overall. Thanks for mentioning Zoher and the Mangrove Trip as this is a must do interesting and educational activity for everyone who comes to Tanjung Rhu. I will be very happy to personally welcome you when you return back Home to Paradise.
