Sustainability Story
It's been over 25 years since The Datai Langkawi first opened its doors to visitors. Kerry Hill, the architect of the resort, understood that the only way to create a resort in this mesmerising location was to pay homage to its inherent natural beauty. He remained committed to preserving the untouched coastal beauty and unveiling the hidden marvels of the rainforest.
As a responsible traveller, you’ll be proud to know that instead of relying on heavy machinery, trees were thoughtfully felled, and their wood was sustainably repurposed in the construction process of this resort. Being a guest, you’ll appreciate this pioneering approach that was truly ahead of its time, considering that environmental consciousness and sustainability were not common concepts 25 years ago.
