The 258-room, mid-range Holiday Villa Beach Resort & Spa Langkawi is an expansive property along peaceful Pantai Tengah beach. There are loads to do on-site, but furnishings are dated throughout and some are worn. Multiple swimming pools consist of an indoor women-only pool, an outdoor pool with a whirlpool, and an infinity pool, though the latter requires a fee. A kids' club and playground are available for children, while adults may enjoy the spa and sports facilities. There are several restaurants and bars on-site, including one 24-hour eatery and a poolside bar. Note that some guests have complained of unpleasant smells in rooms and common areas. Travelers looking for more attractive, modern rooms should consider the Meritus Pelangi Beach Resort & Spa, though rates are higher.

The 115-room, mid-range Frangipani Langkawi Resort & Spa is a family- and eco-friendly hotel along quiet Pantai Tengah beach. While a bit removed from the action, it's a quick 10-minute walk to Cenang's restaurants and shops. Rooms are contemporary if a bit underwhelming, equipped with flat-screen TVs, kettles, mini-fridges, and bathrobes. A solid list of on-site facilities includes multiple swimming pools, spa offering indoor and outdoor treatments, and a restaurant serving free hot and cold breakfast spreads. There is a gym, but it's tiny, and Wi-Fi is limited to public areas. Daily free eco-walks around the property are available to learn of the hotel's sustainable practices. It's worth comparing rates with Berjaya Langkawi Resort - Malaysia, which offers more activities and dining options.

The 25-room, budget-friendly Tropical Resort is located in a peaceful part of Langkawi that’s close to the beach, as well as the restaurants, shopping, and nightlife of Pentai Cenang. The rooms are no-frills but contemporary, outfitted with small flat-screen TVs, mini-fridges, and tea- and coffee-making facilities, plus free Wi-Fi and bottled water. On-site amenities include an outdoor pool, restaurant serving a free basic breakfast, and a rental car and scooter station in front of the hotel. It provides a good value for travelers looking to spend their days by the water and evenings out, but note that there are no loungers offered at the beach. Travelers may prefer the Sunset Beach Resort, which has beach loungers and a more central location, though it lacks a pool and free breakfast.

Located in the jungle, a short walk from the beach, Ambong Ambong is an upscale and intimate property with only 11 units (ranging from Studios to multi-storied cottages). All rooms feature bright, airy decor and come with private balconies and kitchenettes or kitchens. Facilities include a beautiful pool area surrounded by tropical greenery, a cozy bar that serves drinks (but not food), a business corner with a computer and a printer, free Wi-Fi, and a privately operated spa and Japanese restaurant. While it's a great choice for quiet-minded couples with cash to spare, kids under 12 aren't allowed. Travelers with children looking for a similar alternative may want to consider the charming eight-room Temple Tree at Bon Ton instead.
