라니스 로지(Ranis Lodge)

So pleased we were able to make a return visit to the fabulous Ranis Lodge. An ideal base for exploring as well as a perfect location to chill away an afternoon in a hammock or in the pool emptying your mind of everything apart from how lucky you are to be here. Reinhold continues to run a really welcoming experience. A great selection of restaurants within 20 minutes drive adds to the appeal. We will be making every effort to make a 3rd visit

This is a perfect place to relax and experience a rural part of Langkawi. We stayed in a Jungle villa overlooking beautiful rainforest and well kept gardens. The monkeys, squirrels and other wildlife kept us entertained. This is the place to stay if you want to avoid tourist traps and crowds. Such a peaceful location. We loved having a sundowner in the Hangout Area. We were usually the only people using it. For such a private, exclusive experience, Ranis Lodge is incredibly well priced. There is little within walking distance so recommend you hire a car or scooter (which can be arranged before you arrive). We loved exploring the island on a scooter, so many little laneways through the village. At the end of the day, it was a relief to come back to the infinity pool and very comfortable villa which had excellent WiFi and Netflix. The little kitchen was perfect as we could self cater a few meals, or ordering meals is easy via the Grab App. We can't wait to return to Ranis Lodge.

Incredibly well-designed rooms, relaxation and pool area. Every space was personally cared for and finished very nicely. Breakfasts delicious!

4/5 star resort; we add 1/2 star for culture. Resort luxury plus sensitively retained forest. Nature and culture feel right here, along with a huge shelf of books, honesty bar, yummy breakfast with suggested charity donations, and a great pool. The ambience is marvelous and inspiring.

What an amazing second time around. Visited 1st in Feb 2020. We returned from our 2nd visit and its truly a sanctuary for us. Love the villa over the tree tops. Fabulous breakfast, the pool, the greenery around the villas and the staff are just superb. Everything is well kept and well thought of. Hopefully to be back soon. Best of luck!

Unbelievable. One of the best stays I think we’ve ever had. Tranquil, beautiful setting on the hillside, with spectacular views across the island, and centrally located so you can easily get anywhere. Reinhold is an outstanding host, and all of the staff are warm, friendly and very welcoming. The facilities are superb; a beautiful infinity pool to refresh after a hot day exploring the island, delicious breakfasts, complementary water station which works seamlessly, great reading and rest area with hammocks….honestly the list could go on and on. The little lodge we stayed in was spotlessly clean, private, very modern and well maintained, and a stunning veranda area to sit and watch the wildlife and enjoy a drink. Thank you so much for making our week long stay such a special one, from the moment we arrived to the moment we sadly departed. We will be back!!

Ranis Lodge is a delight; a well tended and perfectly presented small group of villas nestling on the hill slopes. You are away from the busy parts of the island but close enough to enjoy everything that they have to offer. A car or scooter will enable you to retreat into this oasis, float in the infinity pool, or swing nonchalantly from the hammock in the bale with juice or beer in hand from the honesty bar. Animal sounds and not traffic will be your gentle wake-up call in super clean accommodation with private balcony with great views. Breakfast prepared by the owner sets you up for another day in Elysium.

We stayed here almost a week in July and it was absolutely fantastic. We stayed in one of the Rimba villas that are down in the jungle. The villa was clean and superb and we enjoyed every aspect of it. One of the best parts was the shy monkeys that loomed around in the trees above and next to the villa. It was interesting to wonder them from the shower’s window. The lodge area was also really beautiful and felt like you were properly immersed in the nature. The small jungle walkway from the Rimba villas to the pool/breakfast area was a nice touch. Breakfast prepared by Reinhold was just amazing and so tasty. Staying here was definitely the highlight of our 1 month Malaysia trip!

We had a wonderful time at Ranis Lodge! They truly understand hospitality. It is quite secluded so I would recommend renting a car. The view is amazing! There are so many beautiful birds and flowers. Reinhold cooks a different breakfast every morning and all were delicious! He goes out of his way to make your stay a comfortable one! A nice infinity pool to cool down in and a relax area with hammocks . I highly recommend Ranis Lodge to anyone going to Langkawi!
