Langkawi, Koh Lipe & Kuala Lumpur

11. May 2026

Langkawi, Koh Lipe & Kuala Lumpur - Travel planning:

The round trip from Langkawi via Koh Lipe to Kuala Lumpur was planned for eight days. From Beijing, we flew to Langkawi via Kuala Lumpur, a journey that took five hours.

Langkawi Island, we took a boat to Koh Lipe Island for two days. Afterwards, with another overnight stay on Langkawi, we travelled to Kuala Lumpur for a day and a half and from there back to Beijing.

For our stay in Langkawi, we booked the Wings by Croske Resort for the first and last night. The hotel is within walking distance of the airport, which saves a lot of time on arrival and departure days and reduces luggage problems. We spent the second night at the Berjaya Resort. On Koh Lipe, we stayed at the Castaway Resort for two nights. In Kuala Lumpur, we booked one night at the Le Méridien Hotel near the central train station, which has excellent transport connections to the airport.

Malaysia, like Thailand, enjoys warm summer weather year-round. From April to October is the rainy season, during which significantly more rainfall is to be expected.
