Private Island Escapade with Four Seasons Resort Langkawi, Malaysia

Private Island Escapade with Four Seasons Resort Langkawi, Malaysia

Home to a hundred islands and a hundred more legends, Langkawi is an archipelago of 99 tropical islands set in the Andaman Sea. Now, guests of Four Seasons Resort Langkawi can slip away to their very own secret island, where they will be “marooned” in Four Seasons style. For couples looking for a romantic retreat or groups of friends and family wanting a playground all to themselves, it’s a perfect day in paradise.
Dotting the horizon in the near distance directly across from the Resort’s tranquil beach are three emerald islands that provide the seclusion and privacy so rarely discovered. Pulau Pasir, or Sand Island, is a natural sanctuary with a soft sand beach that can be reached only by boat or kayak, a quiet haven to hide away and enjoy some unhurried, private couple or family time.
The Robinson Crusoe Experience
The cost for lunch varies, with larger baskets priced on request. Before arrival, staff will prepare a picnic spot with shade umbrella and blanket, or chairs and table if preferred. For a truly luxe experience, guests may also book a server, photographer and musician at extra cost.
To get to one’s own desert island, guests may choose to do as traditional islanders do, and paddle 30 minutes by kayak. Alternately, guests can be piloted on the Resort’s speed boat, arriving a world away in just five minutes, for an additional charge. A mobile phone is provided so that guests may call for transportation when they are ready to return to the Resort.

Langkawi: An Island Paradise

For those seeking solitude, the natural, rugged beauty of Pulau Pasir enveloped in luxuriant foliage and fringed by soft sands and turquoise waters offers the ultimate relaxation and complete seclusion.

Bask in the tranquility of the idyllic private beach of Pulau Pasir. Indulge in a relaxing swim in its calm warm waters against the backdrop of tropical islands on the horizon then sunbathe under the Langkawi sun on its shores. Savour the delights of being on a completely deserted island with loved ones and a picnic basket for company.
