From the moment you arrive, the team are attentive and friendly - in a natural and kind way. They told us that they have many returning guests, who come every year and reserve their favourite rooms. It’s easy to understand why. The hotel sits at the edge of the little town, so you have an opportunity to walk out after supper, and enjoy the atmosphere locally. The team’s enthusiasm for this hotel, and the service of the guests was clear for us to see, and made our trip a special one. Thank you.

Super friendly team, great location, wonderful dinner on the beach overlooking the green lights of the fishing boats, just awesome!
The prices for drinks in the hotel we found to be crisp (but not excessive), which certainly still has potential!
The breakfast was more than sumptuous.
The beds were made twice a day (unusual for us but nice ☺️) and every evening a candle in the room and on the terrace as well as a different scent in the room with next day's weather forecast.
The air conditioning is self-evident because he was very hot and gay. But at night, she whirrs with pleasure.
Also we got a welcome letter from the manager and a bottle of wine as a gift on the eve of departure to the room! TOP!
Our room we found great and very comfortable beds!
There was also a large TV where you could log in with Amazon or Netflix. The bang: there is also a BOSE soundbar and simply pair with your phone and enjoy the beautiful sound of your own music! MEGA!!!
Location: for us top, walking distance in a few minutes via the beach or road to town. Airport 15 minutes away.
Beach: no Thailand beach or Bali, but perfectly fine and as white in the sun as anywhere else.
Sea: very warm, few waves!
Langkawi: everywhere the possibility to eat, really everywhere. Shopping, drinking, eating, rainforest outside.
Tip; rent a scooter (3o or 40 ringits, depending on the scooter, that is not 7 euros for 24 hours rental time!!!)

Casa del Mar is one of the best hotels of my life, and I have travelled a lot. The hotel is small and very cozy. From the first moment you're in it, you feel at home. The small staff remembers you by name and happily greets you every time they see you. Located by the beach itself, allowing you to enjoy the most beautiful dawns and sunsets. A small area is always cleaned up and cleaned up. The room has everything you could wish for: bathrobes and homemade slippers, an umbrella, an iron and scale, a coffee maker and a kettle, accompanied by high-end TWG tea and instant hot chocolate, as well as cookies, nuts and fruit, drinking water and ice if you want to chill it or something else. The bathroom has a complete self-care kit: from handmade soap to mouthwash and lots of nice and sometimes necessary little things. The cleaning of the room twice a day - in the day shared, and in the evening prepared for bed - disassemble the bed, draw the curtains, light the aromalamp. We had a room with a direct view of the sea and it was a great pleasure to watch the mind-blowing sunsets from the terrace. I'll mention breakfast separately. When you come down for the first time, it seems like there's nothing to eat, because there's a small table with snacks, but in fact it turns out that at the table you'll be offered a menu of European and Asian dishes that will be prepared especially for you. And it's VERY delicious! At a separate reception, the hotel staff offers freshly sliced seasonal fruit. From Tequila Sunrice to Bloody Mary, the ingredients for the cocktail of the day are offered every day. The hotel's chef hosts workshops on Malaysian cuisine. Book them in advance, as this event is very popular. Together with the chef, you will prepare 2 Malay dishes and dessert, which will then become your lunch or dinner. The chief is an extremely pleasant person. We enjoyed our interactions with him and the cooking process. The hotel is located at the beginning of the tourist area. Shops and restaurants can be reached within 5-10 minutes. At the same time, there is no tourist noise and bustle around the hotel .which ensures a peaceful rest. Near the hotel there is a very good spa with various massages. The hotel also has a spa, but our prices seemed high. On the beach near the hotel, you can rent jet skis and take a tour of them to neighbouring islands. Highly recommended. Relatively inexpensive, but pleasures are masses. In conclusion, if you are considering this hotel for a visit and comparing with something else, it is definitely worth choosing Casa del Mar. We really had a very good rest in it, not as guests, but at home. It was a shame we only spent one week there. Thank you very much to all the hotel staff!

We had a lovely stay at Casa del Mar the staff are very friendly and always happy to help. The rooms have a colonial feel about them with dark wood and old fashion look but are in excellent condition and very comfortable. The restaurant serves some good local cuisine and is well worth trying. Unfortunately by no fault of the hotel it is quite run down outside the hotel with many restaurants and shops shut down we believe this was due to COVID. Also the beach is very disappointing again this is nothing to do with the hotel, first thing in the morning until around 1000 you will have cars and trucks driving up and down the beach dropping off jets skis and the trailers are all left on the beach for the day then at the end of the day the cars return to pick them up, with vehicles driving on the beach the sand is very hard and compact, also there is a path that runs along the beach and motorbikes continually drive up and down it, on our first day I was not aware of this and was hit by one of the bikes. If the trailers could be removed from the beach during the day and motorbikes not use the path I would have no hesitation giving the resort 5 stars.

We had a beachfront studio for 6 nights. It was wonderful, you were really pampered here. Everything was very personal and very attentive, you felt really welcome as a guest. The room had all the amenities that make a stay comfortable. Plenty of water bottles were refilled both during the day and in the evening. In addition to the Nespresso machine, there were also cookies and peanuts, which were also constantly refilled. Every evening there was a turndown service with candlelight, a mug of cocoa to make yourself and a scent on the bed. The used towels were also changed again.
There was always ice water, cold towels and a fruit skewer at the pool - just like in a 5-star hotel. In the afternoon you could get free coffee, tea and cookies.
We also really liked the spa. Great massages at a reasonable price.
We would definitely stay here again!

I liked the location of this hotel, it’s in the quieter end of the beach with an easy short walk to the centre of Cenang. We had a beachfront room that had its own courtyard and direct access to the beach. The room itself is spacious with lots of storage for clothing etc. Despite some wear and tear it was clean, had good aircon and ceiling fans. The bed was large and comfortable, we slept well. The bathroom is huge, good lighting, and plenty of space to unpack your toiletries. They also provided shampoo, conditioner, moisturiser and mouthwash. The buffet breakfast selection was small compared to other hotels we’ve stayed at, but they do provide a menu to order a variety of foods to be cooked for you. The staff were friendly, helpful and attentive. The only cons are that we were not able to use the rooms outdoor courtyard seating and the padding would rarely dry fully to sit on, so we used the step to sit on during and after rain. Also need a mat placed inside door to wipe feet as the outdoor mat was always wet, not enough shelter.

We had a fantastic holiday staying at Casa Del Mar in early June. The staff were extremely helpful, warm and welcoming and we loved all the extra touches that made our trip memorable. For example, staff bringing out water for guests at pool side (without asking) and the turn down service in the evening which left our room smelling beautiful. The restaurant has an excellent menu with a selection of both local and European dishes - and the food is delicious. Our room was perfect for two people (beachfront studio suite) with a large comfortable bed and a spacious bathroom. The beachfront location was good for walking on Pantai Cenang Beach, going to bars and watching the tourist activity. However it should be noted that those seeking a quieter holiday with less traffic on the beach (cars, motorbikes, jet skis and people), there are some quieter beaches on Langkawi. This hotel is great value for money in my opinion and I highly recommend it for short or longer stays. We will definitely be going back.

A really relaxed place where we immediately felt comfortable. Besides the qualities already highlighted in other reviews, such as the large clean rooms, the pool and the breakfast, we especially enjoyed the small attentions. Every evening turn-down service, which provides the room with a small scented card on the bed, provides water glasses and cocoa powder+cups and turns on pleasant jazz music. In the afternoon by the pool, ice water and even a small ice cream or fruit skewers were served. The spa bookings through the reception were fast and straightforward. The spa is also highly recommended! Even the food in the restaurant on or on the beach should not be missed. Finally, I’m sure there’s also an important piece of information: best coffee I’ve ever had in Malaysia in a hotel for breakfast.

One of the best hotels I've stayed at. The staff were helpful without being too obtrusive, and a lot of care and effort was put into guests' comfort. I stayed at a Casa Beachfront Studio and it was wonderful. Had its own small private garden, and wonderful amenities such as a coffee machine and Segafredo coffee, TWG tea, a silver teapot, nice big mugs and glasses, handmade soap and FOC snacks that were replenished daily. I felt really cared for.
Things I loved about the hotel: Generous amenities and bottles of water Peaceful - no children or young folks running around and screaming or shouting Beautiful and carefully thought out design & landscaping Environmentally friendly - good that the hotel uses ceramic containers for shampoo, soap etc thus avoiding a lot of plastic waste
***Most of all, as an animal lover, I really appreciate the kindness of the staff towards the stray cats and dogs that hang out on the beach and around the hotel. The staff ensure that guests are not disturbed, but feed these stray animals. To me, this makes this hotel really special, a place of heart and compassion rather than just profit-making.
Suggestions: Room slippers would be appreciated Place the do not disturb sign outside the gate so staff don't have to enter the private garden to know if we want the room made up or not.
Thanks and looking forward to my next visit!
