Just returned from a superb Pangkor Laut Resort trip...it was simply wonderful.
Lumut Office
Upon arrival at the Lumut office, your luggage is quickly taken away whilst formalities (like card guarantee, package inclusions, etc) are quickly settled.
Lumut office
When the time comes, staff will escort you to the ferry, even stopping the cars while you cross the road! (sidenote: for those who don’t know, Lumut is a town on the main land where ferries go over to Pangkor. For those going to Pangkor Laut, there is a separate section of the Lumut jetty where a speedboat awaits!)
Pangkor Laut Resort
Ah...the right place!
View from the speedboat upon arrival
As you arrive, staff members are already waiting for you with a cold towel and refreshing drink. While you relax at the many sofas, they will explain about the resort, and your dining options, etc. They can also assist with spa reservations, and other enquiries you may have about the resort.
Our receptionist, Kyohei, was extremely friendly. After the introduction, he escorted us to our Hill Villa.
Hill Villa
View from the Hill Villa
This villa type is not for everyone- Hill Villas are an uphill (albeit short) walk to the lift lobby, and have many steps to climb up and down, depending on where your villa is. Hence, if you prefer something closer to the pool or restaurants, the Garden or Beach villa may be for you. Back to our Hill Villa. Similar in config (from what I was told) to the Garden Villas, they have nice views of the gardens, rainforest and sea (due to its high location. Again, more climbing) The rooms are elegant and tastefully done. I especially like the polished wood and marble finish, goes very well with the “rustic luxury” theme. The villa was clean, although not overly so. The large balcony featured a sofa set, and recliners for relaxing. The villa was quiet and peaceful, not a peep of generator sound, traffic or anything else. Very peaceful.

Bathroom
Outdoor tub
Some amenities (love the bed of pebbles its on!)
Comfy bed

I love the privacy there, as they say (IIRC), 1 island 1 resort.
