MALAYSIA - (January 30, 2014) - Four Seasons Resort Langkawi, is the premiere destination on the Malaysian island of Langkawi and part of the UNESCO World Geopark, an archipelago of 99 islands of mountainous rainforest on the Andaman Sea in the Straits of Malaysia, accessible by its international airport - and even a ferry to the Malay mainland. The green hills and some islands of Thailand are visible from Langkawi’s shores.
Langkawi is an island of small serene towns, with a successful economy based on rice-growing and, in its areas of wilderness, incredible biodiversity. All of the Langkawi islands are part of Southeast Asia’s first UNESCO Geopark, home to 550 million years of geological history. Tropical equatorial rainforests mingle with diverse habitats, including pristine beaches, craggy rock formations, caves, tidal flats, coral reefs and labyrinthine mangroves with eagles, monkeys, bats, otters and more.
It is a tranquil and restorative place untouched by the passage of time, where barefoot luxury is the rule and wild nature provides endless opportunities for adrenalin-fueled adventure. The Resort’s suites, villas and family beach houses are a secret only to those who have come. Incredibly lavish and thoughtful in design, they are like private homes on the beach.
The mile-long beach on the expanse of a peaceful bay, with sunrise dips and starry night dinners and gatherings on the sand, make evenings the most memorable of your life. Perfectly showcased in the multi-award-winning Ikan-Ikan restaurant, Langkawi cooking is fragrant, subtly spiced Straits cuisine that blends Malay, Thai, Indian and Chinese flavors, and fish caught locally.
The Geo Spa is special to the world. It offers four series of treatments to address specific wellness needs as well as tailored yoga journeys, wisdom talks and sun and moon yoga by the Lotus Pond. Its six ‘floating’ spa pavilions are flanked by towering limestone cliffs and fragrant gardens, while therapies draw on an abundance of natural resources long revered by Langkawians for their healing benefits.
Land- and sea-based activities include ocean and river kayaking, on-site rock climbing, archery and abseiling plus naturalist-led Rainforest Immersions and Mangrove Safaris.
Journalists will discover that Langkawi has charming local communities and towns filled with a vibrant culture and lifestyle, small exquisite restaurants and casual shopping. The island people are welcoming, gracious and generous.
