Malay Wellness Journey at The Datai Langkawi
The Datai Spa boasts thoughtful treatments designed to immerse guests in the majestic beauty of the surrounding rainforest. Case in point: The traditionally-inspired Malay Wellness Journey offers a deep pressure Urut Melayu massage using a signature blend of oils along with a series of light breathing and stretching exercises in a cool jungle stream, a practice traditionally known as the 'Mandi Maul Hayat' ritual, or bathing in the water of life that is believed to help regulate the body's circadian rhythm and promote better sleep. The high point of the wellness journey is arguably its very first step, which is an invigorating walk through the rainforest at dawn to witness the ancient beauty of Langkawi’s Machincang mountain formation.
