Top Restaurants in Datai Bay, Langkawi
Datai Bay in general is a place for the rich and affluent who seek exclusivity in seclusion. So as expected, the five star resorts that mainly house the classy restaurants would make you pay for such experience. There are hardly any restaurants in Datai Bay area other than the ones that are run by the The Datai Hotel and Andaman Resort.
So you will generally plan to dine in the Datai area if you are staying in one of those luxurious hotels and don't like to move about much in the island to seek for other gastronomical alternatives.
However, if you are visiting the Temurun waterfalls in Datai bay area, there is one small outdoor restaurant (3-Tiga) right opposite to the entrance of the falls. This small budget restaurant which usually operates during the high season, provides a welcoming respite to those who are looking for lesser expensive dining option in the area. I know of several guests of The Datai and Andaman resort who had tried out the food here and got hooked to it.
Here are all the top restaurants in Datai area organized from budget to upscale categories.
