Pangkor Laut Resort

Excellent resort with a lot of activities to do or just to relax and walk around. Nestled in a tropical jungle environment. Extremely dedicated and very professional staff throughout our stay. I can recommend outdoor activities and excursions and the spa, a little jewel. Special thanks go to our very professional concierge Jeff, to very attentive Feast Village waiters (sorry for not remembering their names as they remembered ours!), to Einstein for the Pangkor Island excursion and last but not least to Saw Thant Htet Tun for the funny and relaxing attentions he dedicated to us!

I have been visiting Pangkor Laut Resort for nearly 20 years, and it continues to hold a very special place for me. This most recent trip began with some frustration due to slow and unclear pre-arrival communication. However, I am very pleased to say that once we arrived, the resort more than made up for it. The stay itself was exceptional—service throughout was warm, attentive, and delivered with genuine care. It reminded me exactly why Pangkor Laut remains such a unique and special destination. Some standout moments included the Chef’s Kitchen Experience with Chef Liza, which was both enriching and memorable, and the private beach dinner at Emerald Bay, which was beautifully set up and truly magical. The Perennial dinner was equally impressive. The restaurant team deserve particular recognition. Despite how busy it was, they consistently made us feel personally welcomed and well cared for. While I do not have the names of everyone, I would especially like to recognise Segar, Magus, Nadim, Mohammad, Sakil and Kimie, who left a lasting impression. What truly sets this resort apart is its people—their warmth and genuine hospitality made us feel less like guests and more like we were among friends. Overall, a memorable and outstanding stay. With some improvements to pre-arrival communication, the experience would be truly flawless. We very much look forward to returning.

the rooms are sublime, food is great in every restaurant, especially the chinese one, and the beach on the other side, emerald bay, is pure perfection with all that shade

Our stay at Pangkor Laut Resort was truly special and memorable. The resort is beautiful, peaceful, and surrounded by nature. Waking up to the sound of the sea and enjoying the stunning views made our holiday very relaxing. What touched us the most was the kindness of the staff. Everyone was friendly, helpful, and always made us feel welcome. Their warm service made our stay even more meaningful. Thank you to the wonderful team for making our time so enjoyable. We will always remember this experience and hope to return again.

Second time here. Booking restaurants in advance has improved with the feature on their website. A few other tips. They don't have their own car park, you have to pay 30myr each day (I think it was 30). The car park does number plate recognition and you can pay by credit card or Touch'n go on the way out. You can get the residents package (full board) but you need to go through a travel agent like Trailfinders. If you need to get the 9.30am boat off the island book well in advance, it fills up quickly. They had a bit of a rubbish problem at Emerald Bay when we were there, it's not their fault but it seems to blow in from Sumatra. They need to be quicker at clearing it up rather than taking half a day. There used to be a net across the bay but it wasn't there this year. Still a great place to stay and would go back.
