It's good to be in Malaysia and create the odd travel vlog from somewhere new, Langkawi island! Today is a little bit of a travel day as we head to Langkawi and get settled into our hotel and explore the main Pantai Cenang, known as Cenang beach aka the most touristy spot on Langkawi island.
🏠 Check out our hotel accommodation here: geni.us/W3GEsBf This is a great spot and that view is amazing! We spent a bit of time researching hotel options in Langkawi and decided with a scooter we'd have the freedom to travel around and would rather have our own space, away from Cenang beach.
Speaking of Pantai Cenang - what a cool beach! Strange that it was quiet as you can see in the vlog, why? Yeah we actually don't know why. Maybe its just the time of year of our travel, maybe its just always that chill. Either way, this is the kind of beach setting we like, its busy but not crazy intense.

❤️ Thanks Patreon fam for making this Langkawi mission happen! You guys are the best 🙌🏼 More details here - patreon.com/danegerandstacey
🏠 Here's a link to our Langkawi accommodation, despite the shower situation (which was still amazing actually!) we loved staying here - geni.us/W3GEsBf
You NEED to visit Kota Kinabalu next! They call it the Maldives of Malaysia and no one has visited yet please go!
Semporna is the Maldives of Malaysia
I shall watch this once home from work , so glad we came across you guys as loving you’re videos and also you both come across well cheers from 🇬🇧
Happy to hear that! Thanks for the support and awesome to see you over on Instagram as well.
I honeymooned in Langkawi, our favourite day was jetsking for 4 hours, they took us to some of the most magical places. For anyone who likes luxury accommodation I stayed at both the datai and the four seasons which were both out of this world.
I just started watching you guys. I started with watching Poland and Czech Republic, because I am planning a trip there after I graduate from college. I ended up playing your videos all day on the tv while I studied for my midterms. It made studying a little more relaxing. I am a Mechanical Engineering student, so midterms can be pretty stressful.
Hey Liam - stoked we can help you get through those study days! Glad you're digging the vids and thanks for letting us know as well, means a lot
Malaysia is a lot less touristy than its famed neighbours, and this together with its relatively modern facilities, it might be a more ideal destination for older people or a family trip.
Ranger Roe Older and “richer” and families that spend tons of money.
@@zednought3295 Why 'richer'? Due to lesser tourists, M'sia offers a lot of affordable hotels/condos/hostels, food and transport are reasonably priced. London rings a bell for the specific group that you described.
I was there in May of last year. It was a really cool experience, although I was alone, but I did enjoy my time there. On my last night, the skies were clear and I witnessed the best sunset of my life.
Loved it! Just a note, 40 RM for a scooter is def expansive i paid 25 RM, next time try different rental places unless you stayed there for one night grab would do it also
We figured as much, but it was delivered to our place without needing to go anywhere or hustle, sometimes its easier to just pay the price and have it for the ease.
@@DanegerAndStacey i can't disagree with that
That’s exactly what they expect though right, how they make that extra money 😂😂
@@DanegerAndStacey haha yeah definitely hustling professionally 😅😅 it's nice you got to see the skybridge the last time i was there it was all foggy 😖😖
Really enjoyed this one! Dane and stacey, I've just got to say that you seem like the most likeable and chill people ever. The way you interact with each other seems so genuine. I don't know, I'm just completely invested in your travels. Keep up the great film work, it's only going to get better and better. This is what life's about, enjoy!
So nice to hear, thanks so much for the lovely comment!!
I definitely loved the content. I totally agree with the comment. No artificial fakeness. Discovered this channel very recently, as I’m taking a trip to Malaysia and Bali. You guys also cover the details beautifully. The video manages to immerse yourself in the journey rather than saying, hey this is place 1, now we’re heading to place 2 etc etc
Tourist with a great manners, brilliant in sosializing with locals, got few understanding / capability to speak bahasa & know how to respect people / society / culture will be treated well by locals. Sometimes the locals will invite you to their personal functions, wedding event etc. I love direct living vloggers, seems they have a great culture experiences in malaysia. Anyway, enjoy urself guys!
Thanks for sharing!! Good info for our future trip to Malaysia and Langkawi!
No worries guys! Lots more to come.
The only time we've had any hassle with baggage weights was on an internal flight in India but my other half managed to use her powers of persuasion to sort it all out. I love the location here and that beach looks amazing And Tiger Beer - love it! That glass looked next level size :)
That's helpful if the other half can speak the native tongue and sort it out! We need to learn a few more languages to save some money on these flights weighing carry on haha
I just flew earlier this week from Siem Reap to Phuket on Air Asia...I had the hotel weigh my backpack and it came to 7.5 Kg, which I thought was the limit...Then I get to the Air Asia counter and see the 7.0 Kg. sign and think UH OH...She just gave me my paper approval strip and off I went... glad I didn't have to pay another $20...
Pleased to hear you got that whole extra 500grams on haha. To be fair they were allowing an extra kg or so from what I saw which was kind.
Hi, hope you enjoyed Langkawi despite the current extreme hot weather. Perhaps you can try Perhentian or Redang Island next time? I think the beach and the sea there are a lot nicer
Still loved it, even with the heat
Love your travel days especially when I’m not traveling. Makes me miss the experience, which at times can be positively addicting! Hahahaaa... This looks like paradise and a great place to really chill... very nice! 😁
The ol travel day is probably easier to sit back and enjoy the memories you have of your own, so many odd challenges in one day of travel can pop up huh!!
Hey guys I just wanted to thank you for all the inspiration you have given me during your vlogs. I've watched them for a while before deciding on making this life happen for me too. Thanks a bunch ♥️
Cheers brother, glad we can help!
That last beer used all the space up on my screen!! How did you manage to finish it? Next video is what I'm looking forward to. Hope the beach and surrounding scenery will be cool. Have the next 🍺🍺on me......... 🏖️
Yooo it was enormous! Not had a 1 litre beer in Asia before, but we'll take it for sure. It was hot, so helped with the hydration ya know 😍😍 🍺🍺
Will be visiting Langkawi end of this month. Thanks for all the tips. Great help
Happy to help - have an awesome trip!
I am surprised they didn't weigh your carry on at the check in counter. That way, you would have had the opportunity to move stuff around. Lufthansa always asks about laptops and tablets, because they get an extra allowance, but then, that is just one airline.
Yeah thats the bit we kinda should have made more obvious, they purposely don't weigh your carry on until the very last minute (after you've checked in your bag) then point you towards the 'Payment Counter'... literally.
I'm only 1.30 in and I AM GOING! You made it sound so good straight away 💖
Hopefully the next few videos convince you even more!
I think the beach is quite empty because of the really hot weather currently, especially for the locals. But i guess foreigners finds the weather to be fine for tanning? The place that you are staying looks nice with the infinity pool. Enjoy langkawi!
Honestly it was waaaay to hot to be sun bathing, we don't understand! A few mins in the sun and we have to drink another beer ya know :P
Wow the airport has changed a bit since I was in Langkawi in 1998
Hello, Dane and Stacey! I’m from Bulgaria and I stumbled across your channel while you were uploading your videos from Sofia. Since then I have watched all your vlogs chronologically from the beginning and I have just caught up with the present! :D I wanted to tell you that you are my favourite channel and a real inspiration to travel and explore the world. Your videos from Europe are the ones that I love the most (maybe because it’s my home and it will always be close to my heart), but I adore Jerome’s footage from the beautiful beaches of Asia, and I must admit that I shed a tear at your endearing engagement video. You've developed so much from those first videos and I'm so happy that your channel is growing. I don’t want this to be too long so to wrap it up - you are amazing, I wish you a lot of new adventures, stay cool and enjoy life!
We honestly can't put into words how much comments like this mean to us. Thank you so much for taking the time to leave such incredibly good vibes, you've made our day!
Do you have any insider tips for Sofia? I'm going there from 1 to 6 May :D
@@marikswa Well, it depends on what kind of a tourist you are, but I recommend taking the Free Sofia Tour as it is a great way to start exploring the city. If you do, make sure to be at the meeting point 10 to 15 mins early because there are no reservations and sometimes they can refuse to take you if the group is too big. If you want to try local food "Под липите" (Pod lipite) is the best place in my opinion. They also do theme nights with traditional folk dances, so make sure you have a reservation especially on weekends. If you are interested in history I recommend Regional History Museum Sofia. Tell me if you want to know more about other museums and galleries. You have 6 days so you can go on a daytrip to some beautiful places around Sofia. My personal favourites are Prohodna cave and Saeva Dupka cave, Rila monastery and Boyana waterfall. If you are looking for something out of the box, Sofia has some pretty good escape rooms. There is no problem with drinking in public so you could just grab a beer and spend a chill afternoon at one of the parks. We don't have Uber in Sofia and there are some taxi scams especially at the airport. Just don't go after some weird guys offering you taxis at arrivals. Go to a helpdesk or straight to the taxi stand or just use the metro - it's cheap and can get you to the city center in no time. If you have any specific questions, I will be happy to answer. :)
@@MissMushmul thank you very much! :D I'm very excited!
low season
during school holidays its annoyingly full with boats and jetskis filling the beach
Going to visit Langkawi sky bridge? And why not take a quick visit to Koh lipe
Yup!! We just went and loved it!
Wah you can go to LIMA langkawi...
Actually east sea more better n more good island.. clean blue water.. try perhentian island & redang islang
I spent New Year time there with my boyfriend. Crowd was pretty crazy that time! Overall, our trip was so great! Will go back again and again in Langkawi ❤️
TRY the food in Yasmin their chicken shawarma is the best! 😍☝️
Can imagine new years is a craaaazy time to visit!
Love Thirtsday!! (the second place you guys were at in Cenang). If you are still on the island and are heading back to Cenang, Kalut (the one with the bean bags) is also worth checking out and their burgers are to die for
Yeah Kalut is the one we were trying to go to and it was closed/non existent which was a shame!
I’m doing a trip to Malaysia and love your videos! Do you recommend Langkawi? I only have 8 nights so was going to do 3 in Penang and 5 in KL but could do 2 in Langkawi?
Oh, Stacey, that situation can get anyone riled up really badly. You guys were great smiling after that. That shower and toilet though😂. your accommodation is great there.
welcome back ,anyway i myself was injured and just done the operation for my right hand,need to rest for 3 months,hmm..what a bad luck.
Ok now im addicted to your video. Waiting for another one 👌👌
Another one coming up soon!
Langkawi is a cool place, a lot of Chinese tourists there for the duty free booze
Welcome to langkawi
I love the editing/ b-roll! also I want to see the dabbing statue man make an appearance in all the videos lol
Haha glad you appreciate the dabbing dude - he really needs a name
Check out the sky bridge and the geopark..💕 And drink extra water. Now the heat stroke is xtra baddd
It was soooooo hot!!
@@DanegerAndStacey yes. Unfortunately super hot season
hi dane/stacey been to langkawi kool place lots to do,, yellow beach bar one of my favs
You've been everywhere now!! :)
@@DanegerAndStacey hehe china and japan in july
Number Satu 😎
🏆Wooh thought you mighta slipped to Dua there for a second.
Yeah it was my honey moon destination . Amazing place and amazing people.
Glad you love it also!
Great Vlog ❤️👏
Your hair is so neat since the last time I saw your KL video.
I ran into the exact same problem yesterday.. I was flying from Hanoi to Singapore. They couldn’t accept my carry on luggage which was just over 7kg. I think they’re just mental...
Yeah thats kinda rough huh!
Airasia is usually strict with their hand carry weight... thats why i prefer to take MAS and pay a bit more
Funny that it's actually the very first time we've had a problem with Airasia - maybe 10+ flights in the past few years with them!
@@DanegerAndStacey i had issues with them on domestic flights for hand luggage , never for an overseas flight. also i love your channel.
Hi.... Good to see you in Langkawi... Have a nice day at there😁
Never been this early for one for your videos guys haha :D finally ! :D
You faaaast this time
i work in langkawi,so do you go to nice waterfall(Temurun waterfall) and some hidden beach (Tengkorak Beach)
New subscriber from malaysia :)
Love your content!
Thanks so much
Well remember the still missing Malaysian flight.. remember it's someone job to make sure the plane is safe and not too heavy along with the gas etc
Thats the thing though, all the weight still goes on, they're not turning people away. Instead, of weighing at check in they stop everyone just before security and then point you to isle 15 which is labeled "Payment Counter" haha
just saw your instagram story, did I just see someone go over from Panasonic GH5 to Sony a6500 ? :D
If yes, why ? :D (no flip screen for vlogging, how are you feeling about this ? ) :D
You've probably seen the others now, but we were in Korea with Sony testing out the a6400 ✌🏼
Great video. Thank you again for showing us the places where we are going next 😜
Oe question for you.
For staying one month and taking into account that we need 20mb of internet speed, would you advise Pensng or Langkawi?
Thanks for the help.
Cheers from Koh Samiu 😉
Haha happy to pave the way for you guys... in terms of speed, comfort and ease you should go for Penang. Beauty and beaches then Penang. The 4g plans are cheap so you'd be able to hot spot in Langkawi, likely not 20mb tho
@@DanegerAndStacey Thank you! About Penang, I just heard they have some issues with jellyfish but we have to decide in the next 30 days where to go, so... Probably internet is more important than jellyfish ahaha :D
Loveeee chicken satay... loveeee.. ur tatoo...
The cash given to the toll is to top up the cash balance in the card for future use. Not paid for silly thing.
In the truck lane, when theres 20 cars in the car lane? And when the meter doesnt lift in value?
11.48 thats me this december. Ahahhaha
🤣
Really nice. Is there anything really Malaysian to be found on Langkawi?
HHhhmmm kinda, but it is a very touristy island for sure
Makam mahsuri
Langkawi or Bali..which one is the best for perfect honeymoon?
Langkawi is pretty isolated - where as Bali you can hope to lots of other islands or spots that suit you better.
For the safety of other passengers, I strongly suggest you should report that e-hailing driver as it is not appropriate to drive in such manner. It is wrong in so many ways! You can do so from the apps, under help centre > report an issue..I hope this help & enjoy your weekend in Langkawi.
Not even sure who you're talking about?? Which bit?
Daneger and Stacey 1:58 to 2:33
Rasanya diorang yang nak cepat sampai ke aiport kot. Kalau dah passenger bagitau nak cepat, mesti driver pun ubah cara pemanduan.
Hows the weather
37 degrees!
@@DanegerAndStacey i will melt in that kinda heat..
Hi could you give a name of that Hotel please .
Here - geni.us/W3GEsBf
Might be better for you guys to rent a car instead of a scooter. Should be more convenient and safer. And the price isn't that far from a scooter rental.
Drink lots of water because it is going to be hot.
I live here
How old are you guys?
I'm 32, Stace is 27 🤙🏼
I knew it! It was the ants!
It genuinely was!
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Airasia’s baggage policy is ridiculous. It gets to us Malaysians all the time. As long as you can fit everything in a carry on bag, it should be fine. Weighing every bag is unnecessary. Grrrrr 😡
Hot
Air asia is rude ... my personal experience
