of the following day. After much advice taking and surfing the net, we had chosen to go to the Andaman Hotel which is situated right on Datai Bay in the north western corner of Langkawi. Our package, booked through ebookers included a private transfer to the resort.

Langkawi is a small island one hour plane direct to the International airport from Kuala Lumpur. You can fly direct from the UK if you wish with Malaysia airlines, but from KL you can get cheap flights using Air Asia (the equivalent to Easijet). You walk from the plane to the modern terminal in Langkawi and from here you are easily accessible to all parts of the island. The main town Kuah is approx 45 minutes drive.

Revamped approx 3 years ago it is a bussling area for locals and tourists. You can then walk backwards towards the main town area to an inside mall Langkawi Fair, which has many stores selling souvenirs and clothing, as well as a large ...
