Before we left for Langkawi we booked ourselves into a 5 star resort as a treat for 2 nights....arriving at the 'Berjaya Langkawi Beach & Spa' was super impressive and just what we needed with the hangovers from hell and the journey we had made with very little sleep. It was on the North West side of the island so a good 45 minute journey in a cab when we arrived at the ferry terminal in Kuah.  The resort itself was amazing with different level pools that led right down to a the beach which was picture perfect - the only downisde being the weather (which was overcast for our whole stay).

The service at the hotel was extremely slow so we found ourselves loosing our patience with them from time to time - when they offered us a welcome drink as our check in was taking so long I was pleased but when they delivered a non alcoholic drink.......I will say no more! When we eventually got checked in we had dinner and some vino then an early night.

The next day we lounged by the pool (very cool bar in the pool) and the beach - later that night we went to nearby Cenang Beach and had dinner in one of the seafood restaurants. We didn't get a chance to potter about really as there was a thunder storm from out of nowhere so it was back to bed in order to prepare for our early start the next morning which involved crossing the border into Thailand - more to come shortly!
