Luxurious accomodation at Ambong Pool Villas Langkawi. We stayed in Temoyong Villa. Large private swimming pool. Reaching the Villa from reception/restaurant is on a very very steep road, that leads to a super private environment with a huge bedroom, shower area, toilet and a separate kitchen area that has all the commom kitchen amenities like Microwave, Fridge, electric kettle, cutlery/crockery tea/coffee making facilities etc. Quite a few monkeys around that have their homes in the trees, but totally harmless. Not to worry, this steep road need not be climbed on foot, since there is always a resort car to take the occupants to the Villa, at a minute's notice. Fitness enthusiasts: A great cardio workout. :) Best Feature of the stay -- Very helpful and friendly staff everywhere... Reception, Restaurant, Car Drivers, everyone. Thanks Lynn for making our stay so pleasant. We had to cancel our hotel booking initially due to personal reasons, but could rebook very easily one week later. Excellent and prompt communication with hotel staff on Whatsapp. Airport-Hotel-Airport transfers arranged by Hotel staff. Would definitely stay at Ambong Pool Villas again on our next visit. Excellent Location too on the Island. Private Transport on the Island can be arranged easily with an app called "GRAB" Restaurant Food: The Desserts are simply awesome. Tried a different dessert every night... all were simply fabulous. Thanks and Best Regards to all the Resort Staff.

Excellent place. We stayed at Machincang Villa for the last 10 days of October. The views are phenomenal. Very well maintained - housekeeping come two times a day to help maintain cleanliness and get rid of insects/mosquitos and clean the pool. Management and all the staff were very friendly and easy to talk to regarding any queries we had through WhatsApp as very quick responses. Very uphill roads to access the villa which can be walked but staff do offer the option to take you up by the car from the bottom of the hill. We had breakfast included in our package and can have either at the nearby Rimba restaurant or have it delivered to the villa. On check in the staff give you a thorough tour of the villa to make sure you understand every aspect to the villa and the surroundings - esp the monkey visitors that come by. The pool was available to use any time, slight downside was that the water was cold and there was no pool heater - however with good weather it was manageable. Both my husband and I were very satisfied with our stay here. Highly recommend

Dear zeenaaax, Thank you so much for taking the time to share your wonderful experience at Machincang Villa! We are thrilled to hear that your honeymoon stay with us was nothing short of excellent. Your detailed feedback about the phenomenal views, the villa's meticulous maintenance, and the attentiveness of our housekeeping and management team is truly appreciated. We are delighted that you found our staff to be friendly and easily accessible through WhatsApp, providing quick responses to your queries. We understand that the uphill roads can be a bit challenging, and we're glad our team was able to offer the option of a car to take you up from the bottom of the hill. It's great to know that you enjoyed the flexibility of having breakfast at the nearby Rimba restaurant or delivered to the villa as part of your package. We appreciate your positive comments about the thorough villa tour during check-in, ensuring you were well-acquainted with all aspects, including our occasional monkey visitors. Regarding the pool, since the resort is almost on the Equator, we use natural temperature water. Your feedback is valuable, and we will certainly explore options for enhancing this aspect of our amenities. We are honored to have been a part of your special celebration, and we look forward to welcoming you back in the future. Thank you for highly recommending Machincang Villa!"

Our stay at the Ambong Pool Villas were just great.. We stayed in the Kemarong Villa. It was clean, private, quiet , spacious and fully equipped with a microwave and toaster oven. Staff are attentive and friendly but not intrusive. Every evening a group of 3 monkeys will visit us. They will sit at the roof and just observed us from there. Of course we did not feed them. The staff had placed a toy tiger in the pantry to deter the monkeys away from the pantry. There is a shuttle that brings us to their sister resort at the Ambong Rainforest Retreat for our spa and breakfast. One is able to enjoy the vegan cafe from their sister resort . Just inform their staff and they will arrange it. The same goes for a ride to the near by beach. We find this service excellent because it spare us from climbing up and down the slopes..LOL.. Many thanks to Lina and her team for the birthday decorations in our room and birthday cake. Our stay has been most memorable.
