Stayed here for four nights in late March. Would recommend this place, though I wouldn't say it is a great value for money as I was charged 250MYR a night (vs the usual 150MYR quoted by other reviewers here.) I had no trouble checking in. Had some trouble paying in advance through their online system, but glitch was resolved in... More

The best thing is the location. Rooms are ok, but ageing-holes in the floor, shabby blankets. Clean though. The problems: 1. On arrival, no-one in reception at 7pm. Forced to wait 30 mins in the driving rain as the two attendants decided to go to McDonald's together, rather than one stay put. No response on the emergency phone number. 2.... More

This hotel may have been very nice when it started up a few years ago. The problem is the complete lack of maintenance. Our room had holes in the walls and holes in the floor. Because of a backfall on the showerfloor, all the water poured out into the room with rotting floors as a consequense. It felt like the... More

The cabins is in a great position. Right on the Main Street of pantai cenang. Close to the beach. Great value for money, inexpensive. Don't expect any frills or additional extras. It is what it is. As you won't be spending much time in your room it is perfect. I would recommend staying here if you are low maintenance travelers.

We stayed here for 2 nights and would have stayed longer if they had accomadation for us. The rooms are very spacious and bedding comfortable. Bar fridge in rooms and gas hot water in bathroom which heats up straight away. Nice staff and very helpful. Not to far to the beach, just a couple of minutes walk. We hired scooter... More

Bungalows are well-equiped, big and CLEAN. Close to the beach! The stuff are friendly and helpful. The rooms have WiFi although the signal is poor sometimes. Overall a good place to stay at a reasonable price!

The hotel is located right by the Cenang Beach (no, its not a beachfront hotel, but separated from the beach by another property). Cenang Beach is accesible within 2 mins walk. The Zon (duty free shopping), many eateries & drinking places including Cenang Mall are all within walking distance. The room itself is a self contained 20ft shipping container. It... More

Since Langkawi isnt worth the pricing of its Hotels, The Cabin is One of the few places, where you can stay! Fully equipt Containers with all or even more comfort you need! Nice garden and 1 minute walk to the cenang beach which is at least cleaned! If you landed on Langkawi and have to stay there, book The Cabin!

... Just remember your earplugs! It's a little close to the road and can be a little noisy. It's very clean and tidy, compact but not tiny and good value for money. There's a bit of a novelty factor in sleeping in a shipping container and it's fairly cheap compared with other options but not the greatest night's sleep. Staff... More
