Pulua Langkawi is beautiful but it does not have the turquoise water that I was looking for here. We still spent time on the beach for some tanning and enjoyed the warm ocean water.
I decided to stay at the Palms Guest House on Langkawi because it was recommended by Lonely Planet guide book for Southeast Asia on a Shoestring. We had our own room but there was only one queen size bed. Plus, the mattress and box spring were not in a frame but just lying on the floor. The WIFI signal was poor and difficult to connect to it. The man who ran the place was helpful but rarely there. I paid for two nights ahead of time and wish that was not the case since we would have left after the first night.
Pulau Langkawi is a vacation destination for many Malaysian families so it is very popular and touristy. Prices here are higher than what is normal for Malaysia. Still, we enjoyed walking in the sand, floating in the water, and relaxing. And, we stayed a third night there at the Easy Hotel which was comfortable if not a little oddly decorated.
Leaving Monday
