Sunset Valley

The pictures don’t do it justice you look out over the rice paddies and it’s breathtaking. You see eagles flying around and we saw Colugos flying tree to tree right by the pool. It is something very unique and beautiful. The homes are authentic and amazing but just know some are old and kept amazingly with upkeep but it does get humid in them even with AC but this is Malaysia.

Relax and Calm place . For thise like privacy this is the place tgat you looking for. .

A perfect end to our 5 weeks of travelling. A peaceful, scenic and relaxing stay with great hosts Gudrun and David. Although in a rural setting away from the maddening crowd it’s a short drive away to shops, beaches and restaurants. Grab cars are sometimes hard to get because of it’s isolated location so own transport would be an advantage. However just enjoying the surroundings in your own self contained cabin leaves little reason to venture out. Aircon is necessary in the Gate house as it doesn’t get the breeze the other cabins do.

The location & the beautiful paddy field was the main reason attracted us to book this chalet. However, there were a couple of things that we found disappointing: 1. We booked two houses, one up to 6 people and another up to 3 people. However when we checked in, we were told there was additional charges due to additional beds required. There was no such info during the booking process about additional charges for beds. When we checked in, the additional beds weren't even ready, it made us feel like we were threatened to pay otherwise we weren't allowed to check in. We ended up paying additional 15% for the extra beds! 2. The Malay houses weren't constructed correctly hence it was extremely hot inside the houses. Being local Malaysians we knew that Malay traditional houses are comfortable to stay in even when it is hot outside/35 degrees celsius. However the houses in Sunset Valley were not constructed for this benefit. 3. There is only 1 air-conditioner in Gate House which is located in the bedroom. But somehow the ventilation is so poor that the cool air could not go to the living room, make it hard to stay or sleep in the living room (the additional bed) 4. Farmer House is built above the ground. However there are big gaps between the wooden planks hence at night mosquitos were able to come in through the gaps despite all the doors/windows were closed. 5. Wifi is extremely weak - only book this location if you don't need wifi.

Positives: excellent location for relaxation, quiet, well maintained accommodation and facilities Can be improved: air-con was an optional extra

Very comfort to stay,homely feelings. Nearby no restaurant,if they could arrange food(especially in Ramadan month) well and good. Two cats are all the time getting inside,whenever we open the door,it was very much irritating. Nice pool,well maintenance. Staffs are very friendly.

Great place to stay for a few days. Views over the rice paddies,pool and a most excellent massage. Need a car for groceries or restaurants.

Spent 3 nights at Sunset valley with wife and 2 children. The location is close to everything in Langkawi however you feel miles away from anywhere with the jungle and rice padi fields surroundings.

Great place, excellent grounds

Really lovely cabin up in the interior of Langkawi. Very peaceful place to stay. Best to hire a car, then everything is within 45 mins. Gudrun and David are lovely hosts.

We had a such relaxing and fun stay at Sunset Valley. It's located at a really idyllic area. Good for people who like to be close to nature.The property has a really nice garden and breathtaking view of the valley and sunset we found ourselves spending quite a bit of time in, cooking by the pool, which was excellent overlooking a vast rice field. One afternoon we were watching sunset in the far end while swimming in the rain and admiring a double rainbow arching over the mountains behind the resort. The owner explained thoroughly how to use he resort, amenities that's available for free or for a fee, left us to give us privacy and was also always available when we needed them. I had some questions regarding getting around the property prior to our stay, Gudrun was always very prompt at responding to our queries. All the houses were spread out from each other, so everyone has a lot of privacy. A place we would go back to.

What an amazing place! This is the second time we have stayed here and it was even better than the first time 2 years ago. Gudrun and David have done an exceptional job of creating a beautiful comfortable set of bungalows whilst also staying sympathetic and authentic to Langkawi. It is so tranquil and we loved sitting on our private porch listening to and watching the incredible birds that fly through the garden - kingfishers, hornbills, orioles. We enjoyed lounging by the pool that overlooks the rice padi and we used the bbq pavillion by the pool one evening for our dinner, using food bought from the local supermarket and some of the supplies provided in the on-sight shop. I would recommend having a car here so that you have more freedom to explore. David and Gudrun are full of useful local information and helped book a mangrove tour for us. I have a feeling we will definitely be back and have already recommended it to a few friends.

Nice place to stay, surrounded by rice field, in a serene and nature environment. Friendly staffs and owner offer helps and guides. Nice pool overlooking rice field, definitely a place I can come back next trip.

Had a wonderful relaxing time here. Lovely surroundings and lots of greenery.

Staff very helpful and felt well looked after. Quiet rural location- great place to relax and enjoy beautiful gardens and views. Great sunsets.

Perfect base to explore this beautiful island then return to this haven of tranquillity

Comfortable and relaxing stay. There was a great ambience about the place, beautiful gardens, and satisfying breakfasts to set us up for the day. Gudrun was very knowledgeable and gave us some good tips of places to see in the surrounding area.

Sunset Valley is an excellent place to stay if you would like to relax away from the busy tourist areas of Langkawi. David and Gudrun are great hosts and happy to inform you on anything you may wish to know of this beautiful Island. They organised a small hire car for us to visit all corners of it a and we stayed in the Paddy Cabin which is a comfortable yet rustic restored 180 year old local timber building. The views across the rice paddies as you relax in the swimming pool are superb and we will certainly be recommending this place to all of our friends. We look forward to returning there again in the future.

Well equipped and delightful Malaysian traditinal houses that have been livingly rebuilt at this location and fitted with modern bathrooms. The houses were very comfortable and immaculately clean. The swimming pool was in my top five. I could swim, overlooking paddy fields, in a pool as warm as a bath, with Kingfishers and Kites flying around. My husband and I, plus our two grown up daughters all enjoyed our stay and hope to return. The owners were happy to provide help with car hire, tips on great beaches and information on the island. Their attention to detail and customer care makes this a wonderful place to stay.

It was a family trip for 3 nights to Langkawi with a baby. The owner of the vally was helpful. The environment was very good to be relax with a view of green nature. Has got a nice swimming pool. It will be good to have a car or motorbike or they can be rented easily. Local foods are cheap and very delicious.
