Fodor's Expert Review Casa del Mar

All 34 Mediterranean-style rooms at Casa del Mar are situated along Pantai Cenang beach, offering guests a serene seafront setting. The staff does a nice job creating truly personalized experiences. For instance, you might be whisked away by speedboat to a private beach, where the staff will pitch a glamorous tent and prepare a gourmet picnic with cocktails. Guests can then stick around and catch the sunset from La Sal, the cocktail bar that fuses Mediterranean drinks with Asian flavors. Try the tom yam martini or five-spice poached apple and cinnamon mojito. Only a 10-minute drive from Langkawi airport, the resort is within walking distance of several local restaurants and cafés.
