Steepness of getting to room. It's a long steep walk to the room, fortunately there is a shuttle service which comes quite quickly to shuttle you to room and restaurant, or from bottom of hill to top Breakfast - limited options for breakfast, and very long wait time for food to be served. But food was good quality and juice was fresh. Although we were served moldy bread one day which was soon changed for fresh bread. Lighting - room was very dim! Needs better lighting

Staff - very friendly staff who were always willing to help Room was cleaned regularly. One day we had bugs come into the room the next day they put in 2 mosquito coils in the room + smoke on the balcony and the big problem was solved straight away. Friendliest and most helpful staff of any hotel we have ever stayed in. Very accommodating to any needs Atmosphere - nice to be in the rainforest away from the hustle and bustle, a unique experience. Decor and vibe in the accomodation is nice.

Not an issue but some apartments. Have a lot of stairs to get up to 150 ish. Can be an issue if you have any mobility or health issues . But I’m Sure the amazing staff would drive you up the hill if a problem Bit of noise from Dash beach club. Not these guys fault at all . Just wish dash would dash off

Lovely setting. Up in the Forrest , amazing staff,animals around etc. Great breakfast . Fantastic pool So welcoming . Very chilled

- the hotel itself is just incredible. I took the best suite at the top and it was a once in a lifetime experience, and that is what you are paying for. - staff are incredibly helpful; always at hand to assist; use instant messaging through whatsapp; never have to worry about climbing the steep steps as a driver is always ready to assist within minutes! - staff assisted with my request to putting the blinds down in the evenings and back up in the mornings, this reduced the monkey noises at night for no interruptions to sleep. - whilst fasting, staff helped to organise my morning meals with a full selection of choices which was much appreciated. - the spa ritual was so peaceful and really helped relax the entire body.

Not a single thing.

Stunning room set in jungle canopy overlooking beach and sea. Large outdoor space able to watch family of dusky leaf monkeys in canopy. Amazing. Bird song. Incredible staff to pick you up and whi drive you to restaurant or beach. Kindest most caring hotel staff every had pleasure of meeting. There could be no possible criticism of this small bespoke resort , for luxury and nature. Highly recommend s3 room. 3rd floor of 3 rooms with outdoor wooden bath

Room and rainforest literally on the doorstep with plenty of wild life. Food for breakfast and dinner in the Rimba restaurant was excellent. Wonderful staff

More loungers by the pool would be good.

The location is wonderful, right in the forest but also a short walk from the beach. We saw so many animals from our balcony or other parts of the hotel (including dusky leaf monkeys and giant squirrels). The food was excellent, both the vegan breakfasts at the Rainforest Retreat and at the Pool Villas restaurant). The staff were helpful and on hand to give lifts up the hill or to the other property as needed.

Nothing at all.

A tranquil piece of heaven tucked away in nature. The property is quiet and peaceful. It is easily accessible by Grab and is conveniently located close to a number of restaurants and bars. The staff are all extremely kind and welcoming and make you feel right at home. The in-house restaurants serve great food with plenty of vegan and vegetarian options. Overall, a wonderful experience.

Perfect position in the rainforest with hornbills and monkeys to see from the balcony. The staff were all excellent and charming - in particular Naim and Raj.

Dear Ampong team, the resort is run with a lot of love and great hospitality. The food in both restaurants is fabulous. Especially the Rimba restaurant with its fantastic terrace for dinner is to be emphasized. The pool and the forest invite you to relax and the monkeys make you smile. We would especially like to thank Raj for his warm support in all matters, such as the valuable tips for the island and all the trips through the very steep resort. We could always rely on him. A big compliment to the whole team. We can warmly recommend the resort (for people who are good on foot and are looking for something special) Thank you very much for everything🥰

Very happy with our stay, no complaints at all.

A glorious leafy sanctuary away from the crowds. Every meal was delicious, no complaints at all from my meal eating husband. Staff could not have been better, no request was too much of a problem. Loved the friendly monkeys that travelled through the trees with their babies.

Beautiful location, quiet and amongst the trees which was very cooling during the hot days. Lots of wildlife around if you are observant including Black giant squirrels, colugos amongst others

the road leading to the guess house too stiff , very tough for elderly people like us to climb / walk from the carpark near reception building the room picture shown in booking .com very misleading, they shown the reception building picture as guess room (open concept timber house building) so we though that is our guess house but the guess house is concrete house, the swimming pool very small 3 level guess house with stiff staircase very tough to climb from one room to another for elderly ppl like us ( one room at upper ground another room at lower ground ) we leave our luggage at living entrance coz unable to carry the luggage to our room we will stay at Ambong villa for our next visit coz that is single storey building with private pool which is more suitable for elderly ppl like us

the unit is big and complete with kitchen utensil, all corners very clean. all the staffs very friendly and helpful (assist us to send our luggage to the guess house) the hot water system at one of the bathroom does not work, the maintenance staff response & rectified it immediately the al carte breakfast very good & nice the natural jungle with sunset scenery very nice, we love it very much

Everything! Ambong Ambong is a special and unique ‘gem’ 💎 We had a beautiful studio overlooking the ocean and beach, which was so peaceful with nature all around us. The staff were so attentive, kind and helpful - especially Nizal and Afia, who could not have done any more for us! Thank you Ambong for the most enjoyable stay in Langkawi. 🙏🏽

The wear and tear of things is noticeable, but it doesn’t really affect the quality of rest. The house on the hill means regular ascents of 5-10 minutes (but you can order a transfer)

Small, but with all the necessary things for a comfortable life. Beautiful view from the room - you can see a piece of the sea. Monkeys are jumping on the roofs) - romance. A house on a hill is a good idea for cardio)

Superb service, the room was very spacious, bathroom was great, lovely shower. There was room service twice a day, the bed was huge and very comfortable. The view was great and aircon was super

I liked everything about the hotel! The nearest beach had lots of jetskis so not as quiet as the hotel, not a big deal.

The room and location was relaxing and beautiful. The staff were very attentive and friendly, a very personalised service. The pool is beautiful, the two restaurants were lovely. Catch sunset at the Rimbo restaurant above the pool villas, it is unforgettable. Breakfast options were lovely.
