Unhurried rhythms. Tropical breezes. Aquamarine waters. Fascinating wildlife.

On the island of Langkawi (lang-kah-wee), the rhythm of life remains much as it had in days gone by. A coastline dotted with fishing boats, rustic villages, and a horizon that twinkles with the brilliance of a thousand stars at dusk.

Nowhere is this more apparent than in a cape in the northernmost tip of the island, Tanjung Rhu (tan-joong-roo)-a scenic and untouched enclave nestled in the shade of luxuriant casuarina trees. Here lies the Tanjung Rhu Resort-a deluxe resort fringing the long, magnificent bay that leads to the clear, cool waters of the Andaman Sea.

The easy-life charm of Tanjung Rhu echoes through the resort, tinging the luxuries of a deluxe property, with a casual, unhurried ambience. Welcome drinks, fruit basket and cold towels is our way to wish you Selamat Datang (Welcome). Guests have a choice of five types of rooms at the 135-room, Tanjung Rhu Resort :

• Damai : 50sqm
• Cahaya : 60sqm
• Anjung : 100sqm
• Bayu Suria/Senja : 80sqm

Each room is spacious, with timber floors and large windows, to take advantage of the tropical breeze and your choice of enchanting garden, pool or sea view. Employing the best of the Asian-Eastern influence, our decor is complemented with upholstery and drapes in soft Thai silk and pure Indian cotton fabrics.

All rooms are equipped with TV, video and compact disc player, private bar and oversized bath with separate shower. Bayu and Anjung rooms are equipped with dataport.
