Ko Lanta hotels near Long Beach

Pros: The special attention to details is remarkable. making sure we can focus on relaxation and be able to enjoy everything the resort has to offer. it has started even before we arrived, when we had some trouble with our flight from Bangkok so instead of arriving at 14:20, we arrived 4 hours later. we still got a personal transfer with a smooth ride to the resort. The free shuttle from the Krabi airport to the resort has free water and Wi-Fi (a 2 hours drive). It is peaceful and quiet everywhere. The hotel has a less than 60 rooms, limiting the age to 18+. Without large groups, without kids and without big parties, a guest can expect to a very low volume level all day long. The only positive exception is the live music at the bar, with rock / pop music, high quality sound during the evening time, a few times a week. The resort enforces a strict no-smoking policy which makes sure that even outside visitors on the beach won’t cause noise and air will remain clean. the Wi-Fi stability and bandwidth is fantastic (especially the great upload speed). The breakfast is rich, accurate and fresh. The coffee is outstanding (a double-shot cappuccino or an iced americano with some milk on the side), the eggs, the vegetables (it stays fresh in the fridge), the corn bread and the pastries are quite unique. The restaurant and the bar are beautiful. The service there is great. A meal at the restaurant and some live music with a drink at the bar – a perfect evening. The gym is terrific. The gym staff are really attentive. the yoga / stretching lessons are great. The sea gear is fantastic. The special attention we got, with house keeping twice a day, with water re-fill all day long and cool towels at the pool or on the beach. Special fruit to room every afternoon. The management staff knew everything about each and every request we made. We didn’t need to ask anything twice. The rooms are very spacious, with great A/C, fans and two mini-bars.

Cons: this place is truly perfect, it will make other hotels or other places look not so good

Pros: Staff was exceptional, beautiful location. It had everything we needed.

Pros: Everything was perfect. The staff was amazing, location is great and the atmosphere was chill and warm

Pros: This place is absolutely perfect for a solo female traveler looking for peace and rest. Will definitely return in the near future.

Cons: Tour guide from hotel could have spoke English better however he was so nice and the tour was great.

Pros: We stayed in one of the ocean villas for 6 nights at the beginning of January. Our experience was simply superb from the moment we arrived. Truly one of the most amazing places we have stayed at – the attention to detail across everything from service, to design, to food and drinks, the beautiful pools and the spa, was exceptional. Added to that, the excursions were organised down to the last detail, making them absolutely memorable and fuss-free. If you're looking for a place that anticipates your every need, without every being overbearing, this is it. If you're prepared to spring to for it, arriving by boat is definitely worth the experience!

Cons: Honestly, nothing. The resort is exceptional.

Pros: The location & setting for the hotel were absolutely beautiful, a very serene & luscious green space on a slight incline looking out to the beach & sea - simply stunning! This is a peaceful & classy resort, no doubt owing to the lack of large groups or children, and the pools & loungers never felt too busy or crowded, despite the hotel being at full capacity during out Xmas stay. The staff are attentive & very friendly, looking after you all day bringing iced water, cool towels etc. They do all they can to ensure you are comfortable & make you feel like royalty. The breakfast is excellent & the restaurant food very good too, especially the Thai dishes. The beach is spotlessly clean & the sea very calm - you can paddle board (complimentary) & go on kayak excursions. The complimentary morning yoga was fantastic & the gym well equipped & spacious for the size of the hotel. The other good thing is if you do want to eat or drink elsewhere there are many many options along the beach within walking distance.

Cons: We really liked everything, our only area for some improvement is speed of service at the restaurant - I am not sure if they were a little under staffed, but we had to flag down staff to get drinks sometimes & they took a long while to arrive once we had ordered. There could be more vegetarian options on the menu too, though they did happily flex listed dishes for me this was not publicised. More Thai dishes too as they were so delicious!

Pros: Very friendly staff, especially Ratchy was very professional and friendly. The hotel is well maintained, the massages are good and the beach is perfect.

Cons: Prices for food, drinks and massages are relative expensive.

Pros: Near beach Away from the road noise

Cons: Music in bar we preferred the fat turtle next door

Pros: Facility, staff, location, quality of the room, management.

Cons: Absolutely nothing

Pros: Like the overall vibe of the place.

Cons: A couple of bulbs weren't working and the staff failed to replace them.

Pros: It’s a wonderful resort, the location is amazing it’s right on long beach. The foods really good as well and not pricey at all. The rooms are just fab, very clean and they’ve got really nice windows which open up and make the room breezy. The staff is really good I actually had a problem with the airport shuttle going to the domestic terminal and I got in touch via the site. Joe was so nice he made sure I was on the shuttle and on my way to the hotel.

Cons: There’s nothing at all except for the location which at the entrance leads to a busy market but the beach at the other end definitely makes up for it

Pros: We had a really nice stay and would love to come back! Friendly staff, tasty food, comfortable (quite basic but cozy and really nice) bungalows. The location is perfect right at the beach. Also very good Massage direct on the beach.

Cons: The food was very good but sometime it took quite long or one of us had to wait so long that all other had already finished eating. Not really a problem when on holiday but that detail could be improved.

Pros: Everything was great. Starting from the hotel itself, nice, clean, beautiful beach, amazing food and fantastic people.

Pros: The resort manager makes everyone feel like home. We cannot recommend this place enough!

Pros: The staff were amazing - cheerful and efficient (good training). The food was amazing and the grounds were beautiful - one gardener who is committed. The rooms were very comfortable and clean. Had a wonderful time there

Cons: No complaints

Pros: We were there for diving, and considering that the dive shop was located on the property, it was very convenient! Staff were always smiling and conversational. Food wise, it was great - considering that we were looking for authentic spicy Thai food. But just make sure say ped ped ped if you want real chili! We tried a couple of other restaurants around, but this one was the best by far! Overall, very accommodating experience and would recommend to stay here if you're looking for a place that's not too crowded but still has a great ambiance!

Pros: Clean Friendly (very) Practical Neat Convenient Excellent AC Everything you need in the room, even little details Confortable

Pros: Staff were excellent and friendly and always ready to assist. Great location on Long Beach with lovely sunsets over the water. Room was comfortable with good air conditioning and comfortable bed.

Pros: everything was perfect. clean and nice bungalows. very good breakfast. enough place on the beach in shade. Perfect location on the beach. staff very nice

Pros: Love this hotel, excellent location on a beautiful beach, big and comfortable room, we ate at the restaurant every night and the food was excellent. Everyone was very friendly and helpful. We highly recommend.

Pros: Lovely hotel right on a beautiful beach. Swimming was amazing and you could walk for miles on the sand. Restaurant at the hotel had fresh fish each night. Staff were friendly and helpful.

Cons: It would have been nice if they had screens on the windows so that you could get the lovely ocean breezes at night.

Pros: Very nice staff, they met us at the pier and drove to the hotel. Very good beach, quiet place, nice cosy restaurant and bar.

Cons: Not enough outlets The curtains let light through

Pros: Great buffet breakfast. Close to the beach. Big and comfortable room. Resort has everything you need, can book tours, scooters and SUPs. Good resturant and friendly staff.

Pros: The resort is not super new, but we had a very pleasant stay nonetheless: the bungalows are basic, but equipped with everything you might need and have this pleasant "island" feeling, being located in a luscious garden. Loved waking up in the morning with birds singing and the fragrant scent of tropical flowers... Breakfast is delicious, with many options, both sweet and savory (with a bit more of the latter, I must say). The food offered at the restaurant by the beach is really tasty and well priced too. Everything one might need can be arranged directly at the reception with the help of the lovely staff: scooter rental, laundry, island tours and much more -I found this very convenient. The staff are really friendly and helpful! Thank you Litar and Asma for accomodating the many requests that we had and for arranging maintanance straight away for the a/c not working properly.

Cons: Only one negative point for us: a/c too strong and facing directly the bed! We tried to lower the fan and to use de-humidifier function, but it seemed like we couldn't really adjust it. Sleeping without a/c is impossible given the high humidity, so every night was kind of a struggle and both my husband and I ended up with a sore throat in the end :(

Pros: We had a nice and cozy bungalow. The breakfast was good and the staff was really kind! There were some sunbeds on the beach which one could use and the beach restaurant had good prices and good food.

Cons: The Wi-Fi was a bit weak in our bungalow so it did nog always work that well, but other than that everything was great.

Pros: Everything and can’t fault it or the staff. Beautiful lodges all nicely spaced out in beautiful garden. Fantastic breakfast and good restaurant.

Cons: Nothing

Pros: Great staff, very friendly, polite, helpful at all time. Just spectacular breakfast ❤️.

Cons: Everything was great until the last night when we discovered two cockroaches in the bathroom. Everything else was perfect.

Pros: The location is exceptional, you have nice beach and restaurants about 5 minutes walking, and if you have motorbike the pier is only about 15 minutes! The resort is so so beautiful, green and full of beautiful vegetation and birds, as it is the bungalows, the staff and the cleaning is 10 over 10.

Cons: Nothing, except I couldn’t expend enough time with the beautiful dogs!

Pros: Location might be good for some people.

Cons: The restroom has had a frog and bugs in the restroom we had to leave the resort. I don’t recommend staying here.

Pros: Near the beach and lots of vegetation

Cons: Squeaky floor. Old, dirty bathroom, with poor plunbing. Breakfest was included, but portions were very very small; if you wanted more, you needed to pay extra. The coffee, even though it was free, it was the worst coffee ever. For the owners, ECO shouldn’t mean CHEAP.

Pros: The huts look nice and the grounds look cool with the tropical plants around them.

Cons: To be honest, we feel tricked by the resort. What started off as paradise holiday ended up with disappointment We have booked bungalow with fans and bathroom which had solid walls (the bathroom that is) because my girlfriend is scared of bugs, spiders and that sort of things. Upon arrival it turned out that the floor had gaps in it... well, big enough for them to get through. That had made her uneasy. However the worst parts came later. Every day at 4 am a local rooster would sit in the tree above our hut and crow until 6:30 or sometimes 7:00... At first it was funny, but it continued until we were transferred to a different resort, tired from the early wake up hours. This was only one reason that made Mook Lanta move us. Other thing were cockroaches... my girlfriend noticed them one night running for cover when she entered the bathroom. We have not seen them since. And later we found out that small, dark dots on the sink were actually their droppings! They were next to our toothbrushes. So for the whole time we were there, the roaches were wondering around the bathroom and maybe even the bungalow itself. Mook started treating them with some powder which showed the scale of the problem - they suddenly came all out and it was disgusting! There were so many! My girlfriend had a panic attack because of that, bursting into tears. Staff lady also brought spray for bed bugs asking if she can use it...(?!). Mook should take care of the place constantly not waiting for guests to tell them there is a problem. Also, nothing is mentioned on their site about the bird waking you up at night and that they cannot do anything about it. With no actual solid walls or glass windows in our hut, the rooster was practically crowing in othe "room". I do not recommend the resort because of those reasons. Looks are one thing but the comfort of guests is more important. We were moved to Travelers Friend about 2km towards Saladan. I feel like we should have booked with them instead.

Pros: The resort is nice, well maintained. Fridge is a great advantage, water refills are a nice bonus. We had two fans in our hut and they cooled it sufficiently. The owners are native English speakers, which makes the communication easy. We didn't have the breakfast included but ended up having it there anyway - it could have been bigger for that price but tasted very good. The room was well constructed - 'insect-free' (except for bathroom). Nice and clean. Higher standard amongst cheaper accommodations.

Cons: The resort is indeed located 5min from the southern end of Long Beach but this part of the 'beach' is nothing but large rocks, 1m of sand at the most, no shade, and forget swimming during low tide. For sand/shade you have to walk at least 15min only to come to a very busy part of Long Beach. Of course if you get a scooter, then this is not an issue.

Pros: The proximity to the beach, the friendliness of the staff, and the overall ambience of the resort. The breakfast was nice but good have more fresh fruits on offer (we are in Thailand after all).

Cons: The bathroom in our cottage had no window or any form of ventilation, so the combination of 30+ degree heat and the water from the shower made the room very uncomfortable and stuffy. Also, the internet connection was horrendous.

Pros: Beautiful location. Ae, the owner is lovely, kind and really helpful. Free breakfast - basic but good. Location is close by to beach and great local Thai restaurants/7-11. Free water fill ups. Cheaper than usual motorbike rental. Mini fridge in room. Overall a relaxing and really pleasant experience. We slept really well. Beds were comfortable and room felt clean. In these rustic huts you can hear the wind, birds and rain. Wonderful!

Pros: The garden is pretty.

Cons: Because of my one night stay I was give a hut that smelt of mold and dust. There was also no microwave in the kitchen area and no water available for guests. Then lastly, I booked the hut because of the hammock and I was given a hut with none.

Pros: Very relaxed vibe, located in a nice quiet area close to the beach and walking distance to a number of Good restaurants, coffee shops and small supermarkets. Nice grass area infront of the bungalows. Also it’s a really nice walk or jog to the end of northern end long beach from the bungalows (2 and a bit kilometres). Staff are also very friendly and helpful, nothing is a problem. I really enjoyed my stay it was a very relaxing few weeks.

Cons: Room can be a little damp so it’s difficult to dry clothes etc, and there were quite a few mosquitoes but it was the rainy season..

Pros: Amazing location, cute little bungalow surrounded by nature, beautiful gardens and very close to the beach. The owner was super lovely and very helpful, she helped us book our travel to our next destination

Cons: Being in nature meant it was a little noisy with the animals in the night

Pros: Everything except breakfast was ok

Cons: Breakfast

Pros: Bungalows are awesome, I like that bathrooms and room doors are open, I had an amazing moment when a giant hornet and a gekko went toe to toe, nature in the comfort of your own bed, loved it!! Staff were amazing too especially Ae, hope i spelled that right, nothing was too much trouble!

Pros: Location is excellent and everything else is quite good.

Cons: There is not much bad things to say. Bungalows might be a little out dated compering more expensive resorts but that's more of an selection how much you are willing to pay. There is some mosquitos. Mosquito net over bed would have been a good touch.

Pros: Family with two children 1,5 and 4,5 years old. Staying in bungalow. Everything is clean, staff is happy, helpful and polite. Good breakfast a lot to choose from. Pool area great for children no slippery floor or sharp edges, mayby needs a stair or ledge foor kids pool, though to get in and out. Beach is great and fun with a creek watch it flow in and out with the tide. A wavebeaker is built in the public park just besides the resort to save and preserve the park. They arrange private pick up from Airport and any tours around the Island.

Cons: Nothing, everything was better and/or expected :)

Pros: The location was great!

Cons: Needs updating, more amenities, staff neutral, not super friendly.

Pros: Great location, great beach and sunsets, very good breakfast, lovely staff!

Cons: Shower curtain to separate the toilet; WiFi not great

Pros: Location..massage and cocktail bar (apart from plastic straws)

Cons: Awful coffee at breakfast, no water bottle refill service

Pros: The staff is very friendly and welcoming. We had a room in the front so there was a great view on the sea. Breakfast we loved, the buffet had a lot of choices, warm dishes different per day. From fried rice to pancakes, chicken nuggets, sausage etc. A lot of fresh fruit, bread, little cakes, muesli and yoghurt. With the staff you can order a made to order fried, scrambled egg or omelet, no extra charge. The resort is close to a lot of good restaurants, and you can book a scooter and tours with the resort as well. Atmosphere was very laidback and we loved our stay.

Cons: Can't think of anything. Only some general feedback which has nothing to do with the resort. We booked a room with fan, which was fine but next time we would book one with ac, it does not cool down at night in koh lanta, at least not in January (25°c at night).

Pros: Amazing view, very peaceful and relaxing atmosphere, not many tourists at this site of the beach :) Lovely stuff.

Cons: Very basic equipment of the cheap room

Pros: Location and view from my room were great! Beautiful beach. Some restaurants and bars nearby but not everything open. Room was simple but clean and comfortable.

Cons: Very quiet in the area due to low season.

Pros: Location ,location and location. Right on the beach.
