The village is located next to a busy street which was a bit loud especially at the evening. Housekeeping came at the third day (because of covid?!- which was kind of strange to us). Later check-out was not granted for free, even though the cabins were all empty during our entire stay.

The cabin had a nice flair and was very clean when we arrived. They even granted us an early check-in. Beach was in a walkable distance but still a bit far (which we knew but still). The hotel had a spacious parking lot for our motorbike and a water dispenser with free water which was very nice. Luggage can be stored after check-out.

Requested for veg food. It was good, quantity was very less for a three member family.

Loved everything. Friendly staff. Greay value for money. Fantastic place. Loved the whole accomodation and how it was all set up. Staff so kind and provided me early checkin and late checkout without charging me extra.

Very nice setting, quiet and relaxed. I really like it. Also good location. 5 minutes walk to the beach and another 5 minutes walk to the town centre. Thank you so much,

Be ready for some mosquitoes (inevitable because of the style of the house), personally not too bothered but just bring some repellent spray Morning got woken up by loud prayer broadcast at ~5.30/6am which lasts quite long

Great location (close to Cenang Beach but still in peaceful area) Spacious room, comfy bed Overall very clean, comes with clean towels Great value for money!

I love that each villa was equipped with fishing rod. I had excellent time fishing just outside my villa. The knee-deep water helped a lot for a novice like me.

5 minute walk to town

Very different

Reception area is very small & bit run down - didn’t really make any difference to our stay though.

We loved it! The room/ hut was gorgeous - spacious, characterful, very clean, and in such a relaxing location. 5min walk to beach, ~20min walk to more main area of cenang & beach.

Stayed in July 2023

Wifi was quite poor in our hut (the furthest away from reception).

Good location near Pantai Cenang (10/15 minute walk to main area). Peaceful despite being near busy roads/not far from the airport. Clean accommodation and liked the traditional style of the chalets. Helpful and friendly staff. Great value.

Great location just back from pantai cenang main street and beach but quiet and relaxed.

I like the atmosphere, the concept of The Gemalai itself. Just open the door and we can see a very beautiful view. At night there is no need to turn on the air conditioner because it is already cold 🤭 The toilet is also comfortable. I booked a two-story house. Under the house there is a place to eat and relax. If I go to Langkawi I will definitely stay again at The Gemalai Village.

the ambient and location near to pantai chenang

The noise from the main road was sometimes annoying. Safe was broken, however, the staff offered to keep our things in office's safe.

Staying in a wooden hut was a new experience. You can hear sounds of nature and live it somehow. It is only a 10-minute walk distance to the downtown.

The only setback was maybe on communication breakdown where we had informed the staff to make our room for 2nd day when we went out in the moring but it didn't happen. They didn't make up our room once we came back from outside.

The room is spacious with a super comfy bed. The toilet is also huge with good water pressure. I love the rain shower. We didn't order breakfast but you can always walk to the restaurant nearby for a great selection of food. It is just 2 minute walk from the resort.

The superior chalet is a waste of money as it looks that it is just on the upper floor but from the outside at least does not seem any bigger that regular chalets. Next time I would skip the breakfast as I did not like it most of the days and only ate toast with butter.

The chalet was nice and clean with AC.

The receptionist area too tiny.

The scenery was awesome! Remind me to my early childhood looking at paddy field. You can see buffalo too!

Stayed in September 2022

1. Lighting is a bit dim but I do not mind that much cause if I didnt have to work that week, I dont care 2. Since it's in the middle of the paddy field, expect some animals (not big, like birds maybe) in the bathroom during the night 3. It can get a bit hot during the day but that's OK

1. The room concept was lovely! A rustic wooden house in the middle of paddy field 2. Seamless check in. Very fast, just collect they keys. 3. Walking distance to Cenang Street/Beach/Mall 4. Nice balcony and semi open shower 5. Our room is the furthers from the entrance meaning, we do not face any other rooms. Only us and the view. Beautiful! 6. Water pressure was good in the shower

it’s near a main road and you can here the traffic. it’s a pity in such a nice location. Also we stayed 4 nights and 3 days we had the same breakfast.

Very unusual and cool place to stay.

Stayed in September 2022

-sounds of animals/insects outside quite loud at night -the wardrobe have some old musty smell -the sliding door is not secured enough and hard to lock and unlock -the signboard to this place is not clear enough -no basic toiletteries -front desk is not very welcoming -parking space is small and limited -a lot of lizards

-landscape and the concept of this place -location very near to amenities -the villa is really spacious and has balcony with chairs and table -the beautiful paddy field and pond surrounding this place -not too dark at night as there are light poles along the pathway

Stayed in July 2022

The facility sound for me not secure, maybe because I'm solo traveller. Just feel that due to the gate kept open without a security guard. Overall it's was nice experience. Will absolutely come again as couple

Environment, view and weather. Overall great

Stayed in August 2022

Bring lots of bug spray because I got quite bitten by mosquitos. The room is close to the main strip and therefore very loud too.

Fantastic place to stay. The room is fitted with aircon and a fan and is very spacious. A semi outdoor bathroom is also so well maintained and lovely. The view was so picturesque. Within a short walk to the main beach (Pantai Cenang) however walking back at night it is not lit. The staff are so kind and hospitable, they even let me take a shower in their staff area as my flight was at 10pm and I had spent the day at the beach.
