Ko Lanta Villas | Places to Stay in Ko Lanta

May 12, 2023 Nobuko Falco

The dive sites surrounding Ko Lanta are considered to be some of Thailand’s finest. An intricate system of reefs, islets, and underwater caves are teeming with vibrant sea life. While you splash in the waves you may catch a glimpse of a Moken (sea gypsy) boat, gliding nomadically through the waters. Cap off your day with mouthwatering seafood, freshly caught and spicy enough to make your tongue tingle.

Stayed for 8 nights with my Mum, Dad and girlfriend. Staff were very friendly, location is great (5 minute walk from Kaw Kwang Beach) and incredible sea and sunset views. You can also easily hire a scooter to get around or they have on site tuk-tuks and taxis. Highly recommend, will definitely be staying again.

Comfortable and relaxing

First, I have to say all the staff here are friendly and will make your stay an enjoyable experience. After my first night I was able to move to the front bungalow overlooking the beach which was like a honeymoon suite. American breakfast provided with fruit platter but because of the situation the kitchen was closed after 10am. I had to walk around half a km north or south to the nearest restaurant for dinner. My room was spacious and very clean. Adequate lighting options, quiet aircon, ceiling fan, sofa and table. The TV had many channels but only one in English (NKK Japan). The bed linen was clean and the bed comfortable enough. Many pillows for those so inclined. The wardrobe had hanging space and a shelf to place clothes. Decent size clean bathroom with separate area for showering. Water pressure just ok but the water heater worked well. The balcony is a highlight. Table and two rocking chairs and also two sunloungers. The only bungalow with personal sunloungers. The beachfront area is kept clean by the resort staff. Swimming no problem. The Thai Govt's position on Covid continues to have a serious economic effect on island tourism. Staff worker Boon is the man with the answers during this pandemic time. I will have to return when everything is back to normal to do some boat tours. Tip: DO NOT forget your mozzie spray.

Excellent place to visit

Reviewed By Suratrichard

We called in here on a couple of occasions having visited previously and been impressed with not just the product but with the atmosphere and the friendly staff. Excellent coffee and tea and a small, but very tasteful selection of home made cake. The staff always greet you at the entrance which doesn’t always happen in cafe/restaurant premises but it sets the tone of your visit. It’s not just a coffee shop/restaurant but you can stay in the villas. Everything seems maintained to a high standard. Highly recommended

Baan Thai Lanta Resort

So beautifully relaxing

Reviewed By Christophe M

We are their fist guests after the hotel closed for almost 2 years because of the pandemic. The gardens are beautifully designed and maintained. The few cosy villas are Thai-style so you can really feel you're here and not anywhere else. They all enjoy very nice views either on the sea or the gardens. The cocktails are great and the food delicious. The staff is very nice. A perfect peaceful place to relax and enjoy life even in pandemic times. Ideal for young or not so young couples or just recharge your batteries.

Superb value

Very comfortable apartment, attentive and friendly staff, quiet location just inland from Kantiang Bay, superb views, particularly at sunset. This is the quieter end of Koh Lanta. A little further south is a national park.

DO NOT STAY HERE

Reviewed By Lauravipond

We chose this destination based on its positive reviews, but we were forced to find alternative accommodation as it did not match the description and the staff were unhelpful and uncommunicative. The property was unclean when we arrived (the toilet was disgusting, the shower barely worked as it needed descaling and we found a previous guest’s earplug and sunglasses by the side of the bed - see photos), and despite being cleaned whilst we were there, there were still ants everywhere - all over the kitchen, crockery and baby’s bottles and toys. The air conditioning in the mezzanine wasn’t able to keep the room cool, so it reached 35° in the daytime and meant we were unable to leave the baby in there to nap. This left us having to drive him around the car with the AC on every day for his naps. Despite confirming multiple times in advance, the property didn’t have a cot when we arrived so we had no where to put the baby. Someone went out and bought one for us, but said the Thai cots are ‘unsafe’ and indeed our son did get his arms stuck through the bars of this metal swing cot, so we had to improvise and wrap it in blankets we bought. They didn’t provide any bedding for the cot. We also chose this property as it had a TV (for the evenings when the baby was asleep) - but the weak wifi didn’t reach it and it didn’t work. So we ended up having to reconfigure the room and move the furniture around so it could pick up the signal elsewhere. Ultimately, the staff were incredibly slow to respond to our requests for help, and after 8 days here and no solution to the AC and uncleanliness, we had no choice but to cut our stay here short and find last minute alternative accommodation - leaving us substantially out of pocket. Some of these issues would have been excusable if they reflected a budget price, but for what we paid we expected much, much better. I do not recommend staying here.

Best place to stay in Old Town Koh Lanta

Reviewed By AnkitGupta87

Booked this place via airbnb. This place has awesome views. We stayed in room 4 and the view was fantastic. We stayed in the room longer than we planned just because of the serene view. This place is walkable to old town market. If you want to stay away from long beach this is your best bet. We reached before checkin time and they served us fresh pineapples and provided a room to freshen up till our room was ready. The road from this place to long beach was under construction and that was the only pain during our entire trip. (not their fault obviously) Special thanks to Pear for assisting us with all our needs with a smile on her face.

7 authentic South-Thai bungalows to offer you a simple and cozy beach-side accommodation. All bungalows have at least 15 m2 living room, a fan, a bathroom with hot shower and outside porch with a sea view. A perfect place for stress-free beach holiday, taste of home-cooked Thai food and a base for trips around the Ko Lanta island and on or under the Andaman Sea

Simple life - felt like home

You go here for the family running the show. Felt like home for the three days on one of the nicest beaches. Simple bungalow with night time pets, like any bungalow. They recently reopened after covid and were still polishing the place. Super sweet bar and restaurant!

Positive experience overall

Reviewed By kraujas

Great place with private beach. Beach can be quite messy on the low tide tho. Food was ok and staff friendly and welcoming. Well worth the price. Shops and restaurants 10 min walk or get a scooter if you want to go further north or South (25min either way).
