Where is this place? Santorini? That seemed to be the frequently asked question whenever anyone sees my photos of Dash Resort Langkawi. The resort setting is simply perfect - nestled in the cove of Pantai Tengah, with the breeze from the Andaman Sea gently kissing one’s face as the bright blue sky greets holidaymakers happily. Although the whitewashed buildings with the blue hue décor exudes the famous Santorini feel, the vibrant colours and the Dash bunny that pops up around the grounds certainly gave it an idiosyncratic touch. When asked on the resort concept, the answer was simple: Alice in Wonderland, whimsical with a colonial charm. Dash designers have carefully incorporated the culture and intrinsic qualities of the hotel’s surroundings to ensure that all aspects of the hotel perfectly blend in harmony.
