Beautiful & Warming Service

5.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed 10 May 2013
I had have searched many home stay or guest house before I decided to stay with Soluna Guest House.
We all 7 pax as team vacation, 5 stay in dorm, other 2 are husband & wife stay a room.
What a surprise with reasonable price, we got clean room, air con, & fan.
Cozy bed, towel provided.
Nice & delicious ala carte western breakfast. Breakfast not included in room charge.
When we do a reservation via email, we got immediate response from Claudia, the owner, with detail explanation.
The location is perfect, just take few minutes to reach Cenang Beach, along the road with different shops or stalls, & Babylon.
Guest house provides warm & friendly service, the environment surrounding with coconut tress, rice garden, green & fresh air.
Such amazing heaven!
We sat at living room, chit chat thru the nights.
Frankly say, this is the guest house I strongly recommended, so far, I never found such place that so welcoming guest and treat us as true guest!
We're happy and enjoy during stayed with Claudia & MK.
Last but not least, there got many cats around, they're cute ;)
Please, don't hesitate to contact Soluna Guest House, you'll definitely love the environment.

Charming. Great price and clean rooms. In a very quiet and peaceful area only a five ish minute walk from the busy cenang beach, which is great. Privacy and convenience in one. Only problem is mosquitoes, but I would strongly recommend soluna for your stay on Langkawi.

Reviewed 1 May 2013

We (family of 4) stayed here for over a week and had a lovely time. We checked out all of the local budget traveller places and this is by far the best (it's newish and clean, buildings and bedding) and it's good value too. (There are lots more guesthouses near the Gecko but this other area feels over-crowded and very noisy by comparison.) Soluna is surrounded by coconut trees, fields and locals houses and has peaceful panoramic views. It's only a 5 minute stroll into town, but if you prefer to hear the croak of frogs and birdlife to scooters and rowdy voices, then this place is for you.
BTW: The breakfast is good and better value than what you'll find in town, they don't serve it on Sundays but they'll make you a brew (we all need a day off).
Langkawi itself is heavily commercialized (not in a nice way)in the main road area along Pantai Cenang especially and this guesthouse is a pleasant contrast to all this. Here and the bars and food at Babylon in town are the best spots without doubt.

Room tip: Cheap dorm rooms, or affordable private rooms too.

Led by the cheap price and good reviews we thought to really find a hidden gem here. The place is very basic in the middle of a large construction area and not different from all the other budget choices in the 2nd or 3rd row in Langkawi. We moved out after one day and found places which were much more convenient for only a little more money. There was no breakfast because it was Sunday?? I suppose the good ratings are to show sympathy with the people running the place who are all very nice but the facilities itself incl. the shower, room and bed never deserve 4/5 stars.

SolunaGuestHouse, Owner at Soluna Guest House, responded to this reviewResponded 29 April 2013

Dear Simon,

Let me first apologize that your stay was not up to your expectations.

I would just like to clarify to all readers and future guests at Soluna Guest House that there is no ongoing construction within the area except for a small guest house beeing build 500 meters away. we are not " in the middle of a large construction area"!!

Secondly about the breakfast. the signboard at the reception clearly states that we serve breakfast every day from 9am to 1pm, except for sundays, which is my personal day off.

The 4-5 star ratings given on tripadvisor are from guests who have fully experienced their stay with us over many days. it is unfair to judge our sincerity to provide all guests with a comfortable "kampung" (village) lifestyle.

Lastly, we furnished all our rooms and dormitory with brand new matresses, fittings and large 5 inch shower heads in all bathrooms. we provide each room with large, thick cotton towels.

Soluna Guest House will always welcome any comments from guests so we can further improve our services and hospitality to all new friends staying with us.

Thank you very much,
Soluna Guest House

Great place to stay, clean, good rooms, friendly service. Without a doubt the best guest house on the Island in all respects. Look no further this is the place to stay on Langkawi. Claudia and her husband Eddie are terrific hosts and this place is a credit to their hard work.

A wonderful guest house which feels secluded, even though you are only five minutes from everything. Claudia was a great host and the room was clean, bright and homey. It's set a little back from the beach and feels very rural; you can sit and eat breakfast watching cows roaming and kittens playing - what more could you want?! We spent a very relaxing few nights here and could have stayed longer. We would stay here again and again. Email solunaguesthouse@gmail.com.
