The Tanjung Rhu has probably the best beach in Langkawi. The room is spacious. The staffs are well trained and very friendly. The draw back is that it is currently undergoing some renovation works and it is a little bit noisy at certain places of the hotel. The spa price is on the high side (about RM280 for an hour... More

This is a review I meant to write a long time ago. My stay was 2 years ago now but I remember every detail perfectly. I was recommended to visit Tanjung Rhu by a fellow Canadian. I had just a few days to spare following a trip to Singapore. If you have only one night or a hundred nights -... More

Me and my wife stayed here for 4 days for an overdue honeymoon and we felt very sad leaving yesterday :( The overall service was by far the best I have ever encountered. I don't think the word 'no' existed in the staff's vocabulary. Anything we asked for they would bend over backwards to fulfil it with a huge smile.... More

Tanjung Rhu Resort is beautiful yet the rooms are questionable! The 3 pools are amazing, the Lagoon pool, the adults pool and the kids pool. The beach is one of the most beautiful beaches in the world, and where my now fiance popped the question. The white sand and the blue waters with the little island mounds popping up are... More

My wife and I stayed at the Rhu for 10 days last xmas. This is truly a great place to holiday, relax, swim...... But the true strength of this place is its people.
