Ko Lanta hotellia

Plussat: The Staff The location The grounds

Miinukset: Expensive Drinks and Meals

Plussat: The resort was beautiful, the staff was top notch, and the food was great. A real value for the money. I would gladly stay again and highly recommend this resort.

Miinukset: It was a little far from the town of Saladan, but in a way that was a blessing because it was very quiet.

Plussat: The view and beach location, breakfast

Miinukset: AC was a bit noisy, portion in the restaurant a bit small

Plussat: The views were outstanding and the staff were incredible

Miinukset: Not easy to walk around the resort as it is built on a steep hill

Plussat: This is hands down the best place that I have ever stayed. The staff were amazing and so friendly and helpful. The quality of the food was great and the breakfast had so many options that you would never get bored. (the eggs Pimalai being my personal favourite). The Rice & Spice Thai restaurant served the best Thai food I have eaten and although slightly more expensive than the average Thailand restaurant it was very much worth it and still under £10 for a main course. The facilities were first rate and they even gave us a free speed boat ride and taxi to the airport after our stay. I cannot recommend this place enough and if this hotel was in Europe, you could expect to pay at least 3 x more for the stay. Koh Lanta is a beautiful island and Pimalai is an amazing resort that really compliments the surrounding beauty.

Plussat: Everything from the minute we checked in was exceptional, we were very luck and they had upgraded us to a one bedroom bungalow with was amazing , every si gleaming member of staff make this hotel what it is an exceptional 5star residence. We will definitely be returning.

Miinukset: Nothing not too like !!

Plussat: Super friendly staff, amazing property with a spectacular beach and amenities.

Plussat: Great location and view

Miinukset: Spa massage - too expensive. Poor value for money

Plussat: Spa was excellent.

Plussat: The services is excellent. Very natural and comfortable.

Plussat: wonderful location and excellent architecture in very astonishing surrondings. A good chef (in one of the restaurant) to discover another contemporary version of thai cuisine. And a real clear sea without ugly jelly fish at last ! Very nice personnal with some good attentions like water and fruit free services on the beach and the pools.

Miinukset: A spa too expensive : lack of simple thai massage affordable

Plussat: Aamupala oli aivan huikea, kuten myös henkilökunta. Kuntosali oli todella hyvä, kuten myös uima-allas.

Miinukset: Jos nyt väkisin jotain kaivamalla kaivetaan, niin hotellialue on sen verran laaja, että pelkästään portille tulee reippaasti matkaa. Iso mutta: Halutessasi voit soittaa kuljetuksen ja toisaalta kuluu hyvin kaloreita

Plussat: The staff was friendly, the grounds were beautiful. Rooms are nice and clean. The beach in this area is really nice, if you go a little more north to the next beach it becomes very shelly.. so this beach is nice at the hotel. Ko Lanta was really fun. Very laid back vibe, still areas of untouched beaches. You must rent a motor bike, it is so fun to drive along the beach and check put each little town along the way. Driving the whole west coast of the island takes only and hr or two. We really enjoyed that part of our time in Ko Lanta. The hotel offers motor bike rentals on site, which make it really convenient. Local traffic is mild so it's a good place to start riding, vs a busy crazy city like Bangkok. We didn't eat much at the hotel but we did eat at two places near the hotel thay we really liked one was called Pinky's the other Sonya

Miinukset: The hotel in my opinion, was more of a 4-star rather than a 5 star Resort. Also depending on the room thats booked you may be at the top of the hill which means long walks back and forth between the rooms if you don't want to wait for a buggy. The extra cost of the pond rooms is well worth it for location convenience. We actually had our room moved down, because the walk/ uphill trek was so strenuous. The breakfast is included in the morning and served outside which tends to be really warm even early am. Also be sure to specify your bed preference when you check it, we were on our honeymoon and they initially gave us a room with two twin beds and never asked our preference at check in, another reason why we have to be moved.

Plussat: Excellent spacious and clean rooms

Miinukset: Pool area too small Beach not usable Pool water not clean Difficult to move aroind with a small child Breakfast not suitable for a five star resort

Plussat: We liked the golf buggy, which was a taxi to take you to your hotel room, as it was very steep.

Miinukset: The only thing I would say is that the pool bar staff, should come round the pools a bit more to ask people if they would like drinks. They could make so much more money.

Plussat: Rauhallinen, tasokas ja hyvä palvelu

Miinukset: Aurinkotuolien aamu varaukset ja tuolien määrä vähäinen.

Plussat: Location and breakfast

Miinukset: Expensive room rate

Plussat: Staff were exceptionally attentive

Miinukset: Cannot think of anything negative

Plussat: Hotelli alue oli kaunis ja oli helppo liikkua myös vaunujen kanssa. Aamupala oli monipuolinen ja hyvä. Lastamme huomioitiin erinomaisen hyvin koko majoittumisen ajan.

Miinukset: Hotelli huoneen sänky oli aivan liian kova. Siihen tuotiin kylläkin pehmeämpi petauspatja pyydettäessä.

Plussat: The room was very comfortable and spacious, the bed was very good. I enjoyed breakfast. The staff were very friendly. I loved the library where a guests can find a lot of choice in different books.

Miinukset: Missing in the bathroom is the vanity mirror. The avocado / prawn salad at the swimming pool bar was not prepared very creatively, I had expected more when I ordered it.

Plussat: Due to the scale and growing global worry over Coronavirus - the hotel was very very empty. But despite this - the staff made you feel as though your stay was just as important as any of the thousands of guests that would normally stay here at busier times. The facilities and comfort levels are exceptional. The ability and pride that the Rawi Warin staff take in turning this place into a little pocket of heaven on earth, away from the chaos all around - was exceptional. Ahead of my flight back, the hotel provided me with a mask - to get me through my long journey back to the United Kingdom. Especially given the difficult circumstances, the level of care and hospitality at this hotel was excellent. The gym as well was more than good enough from a hotel gym standard to be able to get a good weights workout in - with dumbells going up to 25kg, and a barbell rack and bench for if you wanted heavier weights to work with. Also a pull up bar, dips handles and multi-gym machine. I felt very safe and well looked after - and hopefully will come back again during calmer times :)

Miinukset: Given I was travelling during the progressive global shutdown over Coronavirus, the only things I didn't like were mostly things out of the hotel's control! (e.g. Shutting the pool and gym half way through my stay, as well as the spa)

Plussat: The facilities are quite beautiful and the staff were very attentive. The pool is a big plus. The beach is quite rocky and so not possible to swim in the ocean. There are many good spots to eat outside the hotel nearby.

Miinukset: Sometimes our food orders were wrong. Really not much to complain about.

Plussat: We liked to stay at Rawi Warin with our children. Very nice hotel and place was nice and peacefull. Pool area was also very nice. Good choice for the families with the kids.

Plussat: Excelent garden/park, a lot of vegetation, water, cascades. Even the basic rooms had superb sea view, also from the bathtub, from up the hill. Large, very nice "infinity pool". Staff was very helpful, all spoke good english. Plentiful good quality breakfast buffet and excellent, inexpensive evening restaurant. It's really a hit for this kind of money.

Miinukset: Beach is kind of rocky

Plussat: nice location,low occupation with guests so the staff was probably reduced and the menu limited.

Plussat: Great hotel, room was spacious and clean, conveniently located at the middle of the island. Great pool. Very helpful staff.

Miinukset: A bit expensive, not very lively. It is necessary to have a car or a motorbike to move around the island as you cannot go anywhere by foot.

Plussat: Pidin siitä, että huoneestani oli lyhyt matka uima-altaalle ja rantaan. Hotellin alue oli kaunista ja rauhallista. Sopii hyvin sellaiselle matkailijalle joka viihtyy uima-altaalla. Hotellivieraiden käytössä oli myös 2 kanoottia, purjelauta ja snorklausvälineet. Ranta ok, mutta melkeimpä viihtyy paremmin allasalueella. Aamupalat olivat myös vaihtelevia, joten niihinkään ei päässyt kyllästymään.

Miinukset: Allasbaarin hintataso ja hotellin hintataso muutenkin kaikkien palvelujen suhteen oli reippaasti yli kymmenkertainen verrattuna paikalliseen hintatasoon. Osittain jopa kalliimpaa kuin Suomessa. Lähin 7 eleven oli noin kilometrin päässä, josta löytyi myös muita palveluita enemmän. Hotelli sijaitsi hiukan syrjässä, mikä toisaalta on ihan hyväkin. Liikkuminen onnistui kätevinten saarella skootterilla, jonka sai vuorattua edullisesti hotellin vastapäisestä (noin 300 THB/päivä) "matkatoimistosta" tai tuktukeilla.

Plussat: The staff was great in arranging meals for special dietary needs.

Miinukset:

Plussat: Joku huone hyvää paljon huonoja ja vanhoja!! Kaipa remonttia ?? Henkilökunnan kansa todella vaikea kommunikointi ? Varsinkin ravintolassa 5 eri ihmista piti tulla ennen kun tilaus meni jakelu

Plussat: Kivat huoneet, ranta lähellä

Miinukset: Kallis tämän tason hotelliksi. Joka puolella epäsiistiä, henkilökunta ei kovin ystävällistä, monessa asiassa olisi parantamisen varaa!

Plussat: Hyvä sijainti rannalla, hotelli ja sen piha-alueet ja erityisesti uima-allasalueet olivat viihtyisät. Huoneet olivat siistejä.

Miinukset: Vastaanottovirkailijoiden palvelussa parantamisen varaa, monia asioita täytyi pyytää useasti, jotta ne toteutuivat. Ehkä henkilökuntaa oli liian vähän suhteessa hotellin kokoon? Aamupala oli tiettyihin aikoihin ruuhkainen ja pöytiä olisi tuolloin voinut olla enemmän.

Plussat: Sijainti hyvä, ranta heti vieressä. Allasalue hyvä, löytyi nurmikkoa. Forest sviitti mahtava!

Miinukset: Allaspyyhkeet liian lyhyet. Aamupalalla oli aina jotain loppu, piti pyytämällä pyytää lisää.

Plussat: The spa bath was lovely, very nice touch to be given little handbags to use whilst there. Bell-boys very friendly and helpful

Miinukset: Breakfast very poor Rooms not very well maintained Pools extremely dirty - steps into adult pool extremely dangerous Rooms are located up a very steep hill, lots of steps

Plussat: Location by beach nothing else .

Miinukset: We had plantation villas booked and was dirty , equipment warn off , hotel was not looked after at all . From staff I could say 2 people were helpful . Was overpriced , no entertainment. Location by beach and beach was nice , bit koh lant as hole it's dirty , would never go back there.

Plussat: The room is so nice, the same as the picture in the booking.

Miinukset: There's a tile in the bathroom that suddenly fell but thankfully it didn't fell on my feet.

Plussat: Lovely room with spa bath. Really clean. Staff were helpful & polite. Breakfast was lovely, plenty to choose from.

Miinukset: Up a steep hill & lots of steps but the staff will take you in a buggy if you need.

Plussat: The property manager is an outstanding professional. Very kind and helpful. Rest of the staff are very nice.

Miinukset: Wild monkeys on property are a bit hungry and sometimes slightly aggressive. Also the beach needs cleaning.

Plussat: -Despite the smell, it was very clean -Bath on the balcony was great -Beach area was kept clean, 3 pools were great and there were plenty of sun loungers and umbrellas -Handy to have an onsite shop and tour booking service for transfers and trips

Miinukset: -Bathroom really smelt after using the bath especially (drains maybe?) This also made the room then smell too -Aircon also gave off a sulphur smell on random occasions -Breakfast wasnt great for vegans -The bar/beach restaurant was pricey compared to others around

Plussat: Hotellin sijainti on todella rauhallinen ja luonnonläheinen. Viidakkomainen ympäristö alkaa heti hotellin takapihalta. Hotellin alueella on paljon eläimiä ja luontoa: apinoita, liskoja, sammakoita ja lintuja. Iltaisin mieletön konsertti kaikkia eri ääniä! Meillä oli Earth -sviitti, joka oli suurehko huone varustettuna wc:llä, suihkulla, ammeella ja parvekkeella. Erittäin mukava sänky ja puhtaat, tuoksuttomat lakanat. Hotellilta saa allaspyyhkeitä. Aamiainen oli ihan ok, mutta alkoi kyllästyttämään, kun oli joka päivä ihan samanlainen. Ranta sijaitsee hotellin välittömässä läheisyydessä. Hotellilla on oma hierontapaikka, mutta myös rannalla useita hyviä ja hieman edullisempia hierontapaikkoja.

Miinukset: Ensin olimme huoneessa 2202, jossa seinät olivat käytännössä kuin paperia (ensimmäinen huone käytävällä). Aivan jokainen ääni käytävästä, rapuista ja jopa viereisestä huoneesta kuului huoneeseen. Saimme ensimmäinen yön jälkeen vaihdettua huoneen käytävän päätyyn, joka helpotti äänieristysasiaa. Huone on yhtä isoa tilaa, myöskään wc:ssä ei ole kuin ylhäältä avoinna oleva, osittain läpinäkyvä lasiovi. Hotelli soveltuu heikosti liikuntarajoitteisille: huoneet ja bungalowit sijaitsevat jyrkähkössä rinteessä. Myöskään uima-altaisiin ei ole ollenkaan portaita.

Plussat: Direct access to the beach, with an underground tunnel so that you wouldn't have to cross the road. Along the beach there are quite a few different bars and restaurants. Several pools and outdoor areas to lounge around the hotel grounds and the jacuzzi in the room was also great. Overall a pretty good stay.

Miinukset: The shuttle to take you up to the hotel room which can be quite a steep walk, wasn't always available. The transportation into town or to other places on the island isn't the best value for money.

Plussat: Staff were excellent, always extremely friendly and accomodating. Breakfast buffet was in the room and it was fantastic. We also mostly ate here and the food was top notch! Massive choice too.

Miinukset: The spa was a little pricey but I'm literally seraching for something bad to pick on, everything else was excellent.

Plussat: Room is great, super location

Miinukset: International food in kitchen is very poor, them again manager Erin made up for it, such a nice guy.

Plussat: The beach location is lovely, the bungalows well laid out and the restaurant is beautiful.

Miinukset: Everything felt a bit like the glory days were over. We felt totally neglected by the staff. There were no activities whatsover and the bungalow felt like it could fall apart any time. Koh Lanta itself also felt a bit run down - maybe due to the aftermath of the tsunami and the low season?

Plussat: very wonderful place, golden beach & blue sea, delicated small villa in the woods,very calm to reach the peace in the deep heart. Also convient to the families with children, they can learn to swim in the pool and play around, very safe and hotel staff will help you to take care of them. I'll come back.

Miinukset: nothing.

Plussat: Staff very friendly, good decoration and layout of the place, peaceful.

Miinukset: Breakfast could have had more options to offer, also very funny about budgeting toilet paper in the rooms (no spare rolls at the room, only limited number of sheets per day per room, strange :-P

Plussat: cool staff , fency location and fency houses

Miinukset: not realy clean room

Plussat: hotelli rauhallinen, mukavan puutarhan siimeksessä

Plussat: Everything, this is a great hotel for people who like a quiet and peacefull stay. Nice beach, the bungalows are set up in a gardenlike environment and the restaurant, pool and garden (spa) are almost on the beach. Staff is very friendly.

Miinukset: The hotel organised some parties when we stayed there. I don't think the type of parties did fit the hotel. For example one day they organised an afternoon-cocktail hour with loud dance-music, which did not really match with the peacefull atmosphere of the hotel and garden itself. I prefer some nice lounge music or nothing at all.

Plussat: The resort was very stylish and clean. Excellent beach location and good pool and sun loungers. Very friendly, helpful & welcoming staff.

Miinukset:

Plussat: Location

Miinukset: Restaurant , breakfast, no quality/ price

Plussat: We spend 8 nights in this beautiful place beginning of Nov and had very good weather and only a few guests. The resort gets apparently very busy over xmas which might change the athmosphere but what we experienced was perfect. Being in the south of Lanta is also a must as it is much quieter, nicer and more authentic. During our stay, we also visited many hotels/resort on the island and SriLanta was definitely the best choice whithin this price range.

Miinukset: The spa is way too expensive! We did not go there once.

Plussat: Hyvä aamiainen. Kivat uima-altaat. Hyvä ranta. Kaunis reilunkokoinen huone. Helppo ja edullinen skootterivuokraus. Uima-altaalla oli tarjolla kylmiä kasvopyyhkeitä.

Miinukset: Huoneen liukuovikomerot liikkuivat nihkeästi. Siivouksessa vähän parannettavaa. Uima-altaat menivät kiinni melko ajoissa (19:00). kuntosalilla huono ilma ja laitteita epäkunnossa. Uloskirjautuminen hidasta. Hotellin rantabaaeissa melko korkeat hinnat.

Plussat: Huone omalla uima-altaalla oli hyvä valinta. Lähellä myös rauhallinen yleisessä käytössä oleva allasalue. Aamiainen runsas ja hyvät valikoimat joka tarpeeseen. Rannalla oli hyvä lenkkeillä aamuisin(kova alusta) sekä ihan äärimmäisenä oikealla oli myös kohtuulliset snorklausvedet, muuten perus ranta.

Miinukset: Kohteeseen tehdään pakettimatkoja.

Plussat: Henkilökunta oli ystävällistä, huone oli siisti, hyvä sänky ja oma rauha

Miinukset: Vessassa ja suihkussa haisi viemäri

Plussat: Kolme hienoa uima-allasta joista yksi rannan tuntumassa. Hyvä aamupala. Respasta sai vuokrattua skoottereita kohtuu hintaan.

Miinukset: Deluxe huoneet omalla uima-altaalla sijaitsivat resortin perällä mahdollisimman kukana rannasta. Muurin toisella puolella oli tie josta kuului ajoittain meteliä altaalle. Siiivouksesta ja minibaarin käytöstä joutui huomauttamaan muutaman kerran ja silloin saatiin hieman töykeä vastaus. Tiistainen Thai illallinen ei vastannut odotuksia. Oli kyllä kivasti pöydät rannalla, mutta ruoka ei ollut kovin erikoista.

Plussat: The twin lotus was a beautiful resort. The breakfast was fabulous! The infinity pool is relaxing and has the most gorgeous view. We had a room with our own pool and it was worth it. Room service was very reasonably priced. There are many restaurants walking distance that were great!

Miinukset: Having the shower and sink outside was a little strange and got hot at times.

Plussat: Very clean rooms and spacious. Room kept clean, and we loved our towel animals left by our house keeper. Loved the outside bath, pool was good too. Breakfast is brilliant, loads to choose from. All the staff were very helpful and friendly. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay here, I highly recommend it.

Plussat: The room - clean, modern, smelt nice, comfy Staff friendliness/going the extra mile Facilties - the pool was lovely for relaxing, they had a snooker table, loads of books to borrow, a nice gym, etc. Location - close to a really nice beach and also some nice restaurants nearby. The lady/travel agent over the road from the hotel helped us with travel arrangements for the next part of our trip

Miinukset: It was hard to get a seat by the pool as people reserved seats with towels and there weren't a lot of sunbeds. This was the only fault that I had and it was more with other holiday makers than the hotel itself.

Plussat: Stayed just 3 nights, but room with dip pool was amazing. We really enjoyed our stay.

Plussat: Superior rooms modern, bright and airy, staff, tranquil atmosphere and location, beach, pools, gym

Miinukset: Smoking area at entrance, little pricey

Plussat: The room with private pool was amazing very relaxed and quiet! Good variety at breakfast and the food at the beach bar was really tasty! The beach itself was very clean and quite quiet compared to others which was nice and there were plenty of places to get a drink or something to eat!

Plussat: Beautiful beach and the water was excellent for swimming in. Breakfast buffet was really good. Rooms were clean and so was the pool area.

Miinukset: The bathroom and the area around the garden pool constantly smelled like sewage. The wi-Fi was poor. The hotel food was average and overpriced. There aren’t a huge number of restaurants nearby but there is a really good burger place within walking distance. Check out was unnecessary painful - took way longer than it needed too- they should take a credit card on arrival to make it a simpler process.

Plussat: Loistava henkilökunta, hyvä aamiainen ja erittäin hienot näkymät altaalta merelle.

Plussat: Cannot understand how this hotel can be evaluated above 8. Nonsense. No more that 6

Miinukset: At the reception unhappy people, room, breakfast

Plussat: Room and pool and beach excellent

Plussat: Allasalue mukava. Siistit huoneet

Miinukset: Ulkoalueella jonkinverran koejaamatta. Altailla puuttuvia laattoja jne. Ilmastointi pitäö kovaa ääntä. Vaihtakaa ilmalämpöpumppuihin

Miinukset: aamiainen, pitäisi olla monipuolisempi ja mukana kansainvälisyyttä tarjontaan

Plussat: Location - perfect beach spot and for sunsets. Rooms spacious. Price was very good and fair for all you get. Staff nice. Gardens and pools lovely. Beach bar and restaurant good. Great omelette chefs for breakfast. Lots of beach bars along beach to venture to.

Miinukset: No hand sanitiser on entry to breakfast buffet - all other hotels seem to do this and poor during corona virus. The quality of sunbeds on beach is very poor - they were collapsing and dangerous. Pool ones better but need updating and more of them.

Plussat: The swim up pool access was amazing. Worth the extra money. There was an adult's only pool which was pretty quiet which was nice as well. It's a shortish walk to the beach, not as long as other reviews made out. The room was lovely and big and there's a mini mart across the road that you can go to get a few evening drinks to enjoy on the balcony.

Miinukset: We originally booked a twin bed swim pool room (as two friends sharing) which had an adjoining door to another room and unfortunately we were next door to a family with a young child and you could hear the crying, the doors were not sound proof. A night's disturbed sleep for us! Fortunately, we asked the next day and were moved to another room although it had a double bed and wasn't as comfy but still had the pool access so we were happy about that. More umbrellas or shade at the pool would be good because unfortunately you do have to play the "get up early and put your towel down" game if you want a sunbed.

Plussat: We loved the pool access room - spotlessly clean and a lovely pool to dip in after a hot day of touring The beach was easy access and also nice and clean

Plussat: Loved the large gardens, it's beachfront location and our pool access spacious room.

Miinukset: Not enough shade around the pool and the sun loungers at the beach were rubbish as the back would collapse at any given moment.

Miinukset: Amid Covid-19 Pandemic, this is the only hotel that refused to provide refund for unachievable stays.

Plussat: Lovely spacious resort.nice and relaxing.room food staff location all good.nothing wrong with this place. Nice little walk through the grounds to a lovely beach and calm blue sea.

Miinukset: Little bit better choice of food for breakfast.but still enough to enjoy.

Plussat: The manager honestly told us he got loads of complaints!

Miinukset: We actually ended up checking out the same say, it's not the same as the photos and definatly not 4 star! Room stink of mould, I would not stay here at all! Furniture broken and scratched! Serious need of refurbishment or updating of photos! Shocking hotel and no where near town

Plussat: Location directly on the beach. Room is big and equipted well. Really nice and maintained green area on the way to the beach. Bartender at the beach bar is 5*.

Miinukset: Restoran service level quite low. You can wait for menu, ordering, bill really long. Restaurant is overpriced but near the hotel on the beach you can find enough restaurants. Wifi really poor.

Plussat: Hotelli sijaitsee hyvällä rannalla, ja vieressä on paljon hyviä ruokapaikkoja. Huone neljälle hengelle oli siisti ja hyvän kokoinen. Thaimaalainen, tumma sisustus.

Miinukset: Huone osittain hieman kulunut, äänieristykseen toivomisen varaa..

Miinukset: Vanhahtava

Plussat: Nice hotel right next to the beach. Several swimming pools and good accommodation. We first booked rooms at the top floor with the balcony pools (?!) but with a family of seven we felt like there wasn’t enough room for us to sit down, so we asked for other rooms. The staff fast solved our problem and gave us two rooms at the first floor with the pool right outside. This was an upgrade for us which we are very grateful for. Long beach was great both at high and low tidewater and fitting for families.

Miinukset: There wasn’t many vegetarian or vegan meals at the restaurant. The breakfast was a bit expensive considering that milkproducts etc was warm.

Plussat: Hyvä buffetaamiainen. Hyvä ranta. Kirkas vesi . Ei roskainen ranta. Hyvä ruoka. Lähellä paljon hyviä ravintoloita. Ruoka hyvää. Henkilökunta mahtava.

Miinukset: Sänky kova. Huonot tyynyt. Aurinkotuolien patjat ruskeat..auringossa tosi kuumat kuin myös ruskeat pyyhkeet. Suosittelen omat pyyhkeet. Varjoinen ranta. Puolilta päivin vasta aurinko paistaa ( paljon puita rannan lähellä). Hotelli ylihinnoiteltu. Huoneiston suihkuvesi haisee aluksi..huono paine..lämpötila vaihteleva.

Plussat: I liked everything else and can recommend this hotel.

Miinukset: The bed was very hard, and service at the restaurant was slow even though there were only a few customers.

Plussat: As a returner I always love being in kho lanta . The hotel staff especially the service manager who went way beyond his duty in making sure we were happy. Thank you and your staff for yet another memorable holiday . Beach bars and restaurants a bonus .

Miinukset: You’ve taken away the main swimming pool.! In the two weeks we were there I saw 3 people in the very well equipped gym ! Sadly the kiddies pool and area around it would have been a problem to me had my grandchildren been with me .

Plussat: Hyvä rauhallinen hotelli. Huone siisti.Hyvä palvelu, ystävällinen henkilökunta. Spassa hieronta erinomaista. Ravintola rannassa, hyvä ruoka. Suosittelen.

Miinukset: Huomio varatessa jos liikuntaesteinen osa huoneista 2-3 kerroksessa ei hissiä.

Plussat: The place is beautiful and super quiet. . We got a family room on the ground floor that had direct to the swimming pool. It was super big and spacious. The beach is super nice and not crowded at all. There are a lot of places to rent a SUP board or a kayak.

Miinukset: The hotel is quite close to Saladan but lies on a stretch where there's not much. It's quite dark and there's no walk path. But for 100/150 baht you can take a tuk tuk to town.

Plussat: This is the best beach in Lanta, the sea is the best in Thailnad. The hotel design is very nice. The location of hotel comfortable, the restourants and bars from the hotel beach just in walking distance.

Plussat: spacious villas, interesting design, proximity to the city

Miinukset: We lived in villas. the hotel was renovated, a lot of noise. rates in patches of repair, no hot water in the evenings. Breakfast poor. beach is very short.

Plussat: Good Location, beach was 3 min walk from suite. pool just outside the window of suite (upgrade from balcony to pool in low season). Near from the "town". Good place to stay and relax and good value of money, however was not impressive...

Miinukset: Low season so: Many many maintenance and construction on the resort; SPA was close; no activities on the resort; very poor breakfast with almost no options...

Plussat: Friendly staff, great location--close enough to the action on Klong Dao, but far enough to feel secluded when we wanted. LOVED the buggy service to the rooms. Didn't think we would use it so much, but it was nice to skip getting sweaty from the walk to our room. Thought breakfast was top notch, better than I expected given some other reviews.

Miinukset: Pool chairs did fill up, but since we stayed in a room with a private pool, this wasn't a problem for us. Bed was pretty hard, but pillows were good--had that same critique at the other Thai hotel we stayed at, so maybe it's fairly standard to have hard mattresses? These are nitpicks--overall a wonderful experience.

Plussat: Staff was extremely helpful and polite. Great location and free transfers to town. They were waiting for me at the pier and this was really helpful. Great breakfast. Good location, nice sunset, nice public beach nearby.

Miinukset: Lack of maintenance. Towells need to be replaced. AC was not sufficient. Bathroom had bad odor.

Plussat: We had an infinity pool room which was really nice, the sunsets from our room were amazing. The staff were lovely and the food was good. I would recommend this place as probably one of the best places to stay whilst on Lanta.

Miinukset: Nothing the hotel it’s staff, food and the accommodation was excellent

Plussat: Shuttle Service to Saladan

Miinukset: Hotel is quite far away from the main spots, it doesn't have a sandy beach and you have to walk a lot between the facilities(or be driven by carts)

Plussat: Great location interesting set up

Miinukset: Lots of bugs got in the room, could provide more detterants

Plussat: The hotel staff were extremely helpful. I had a problem with my computer connecting to the internet, and they went out of their way to assist me.

Plussat: The staff were wonderful and kind, and breakfast was good.

Miinukset: Way overpriced for what you get, especially in Thailand. Dated and you’re isolated from everything .

Plussat: Family friendly resort. Excellent pool and pool bar. Nice Spa. Helpful staff at the front desk. Nice and clean room. Weirdly large bathroom.

Miinukset: For a 4/5 star resort, lunch/dinner options are limited and not taste very good, not to mention it is very expensive. Staff at the Sunset restaurant also not seem very attentive. Breakfast is OK but same food everyday. There is no grocery/convenience store/restaurant within walking distance. You need to take a tuktuk for 100Bhat to the nearest town.

Plussat: Erinomainen aamiainen. Hyvät altaat ja ravintolat. Sijainti kauniissa paikassa hieman kaupungin hälinästä sivussa. Satamaan olisi ollut ilmainen transfer-kuljetus mutta ei sitten kuitenkaan haluttu poistua alueelta. Ihana paikka kaiken kaikkiaan.

Plussat: Free city shuttle. Great breakfast and coffee. Free WiFi & printer & kanues & mountain bikes.

Miinukset: Room names are confusing (I expected pool access but only had pool view) ;-p

Plussat: Friendly staff, our room connected with the pool which made taking a cooling swim so easy, breakfast area overlooking the sea in 3 directions was fabulous and I miss it already.

Miinukset: lack of evening bar/focal meeting point.

Miinukset: The private beach was quite small and a little rocky; the public one was big but it was almost impossible to swim there because its water wasn't deep enough and there were lots of mosquitos. Then location is very distant (about 2,5 hours from Krabi airport) - but this is not a problem if you travel by the hotel comfortable van with air conditioner and complimentary drinks. Really nothing to do in the area - just a small village nearby with several dirty "restaurants". Also hotel prices are quite expensive (about 4 times higher than Thai average) and do not include 17% tax and service charge.

Plussat: The hotel is perfect with beautiful swimming pools, the bedroom has a lot of space, the beach is nice and the spa service is great. I also loved the food and the crew is really nice.

Miinukset: Only two things: the staff do not speak a clear English and sometimes it was a little bit stressful. The second point is that the resort is really far from the airport, so you have to be sure you have extra days (2) to spend reaching there. But I really recommend the hotel.

Plussat: location, pool, rooms space, cleanliness, view to the beach

Miinukset: staff speaks english very poor, no buffet breakfast on low season

Plussat: Great food, great staff, great placement of the resort! All in all a perfect vacation!

Miinukset: Some disrespect for the «No child zone/quiet zone» from some of the guests, no action taken from staff even we called.

Plussat: Matkustimme 8kk vauvan kanssa ja meille hotelli oli oikein hyvä. Vauvalle löytyi kaikki tarvittava (pinnasänky, syöttötuoli sekä rannanpuoleisen altaan vieressä sijaitseva Baby Lounge jossa onnistui niin vaipan vaihtaminen kuin syöminen ja leikkiminen). Rannalla onnistui kävellä helposti rattaiden kanssa ja rantaravintoloista löytyi syöttötuoleja.

Plussat: Room was lovely, lady that checked us in was lovely and very welcoming! We stayed at 3 hotels in our stay in Thailand and chada was the best value for money Pools and beach were great! Can’t wait to return!

Miinukset: NOTHING!!

Plussat: The room have good space for the pool area big and deep

Miinukset: Food and fitness was katastrof and sun beds little to hard to take up or down some didn’t work at al in booking they say it’s a 5 star resort ! but truly not more than 4 !!!

Miinukset: Cha-da is Mc Donald like resort. There are thousands similar resorts around the world and it is not worth to travel so far and pay so much for instant and non-authentic resort. We left earlier, only after two days. It was mistake to select Cha-da.

Plussat: Breakfast

Miinukset: The room. Smelling horrible, terrible in general

Plussat: Viihtyisät allas alueet lähellä rantaa. Siisteys

Plussat: Lovely place, nice room and exceptionally good breakfast

Miinukset: Very windy! But not hotels fault

Plussat: Enjoyed our stay. Found the staff to be friendly and helpful. Great choice at breakfast. Excellent facilities

Plussat: Sijainti erinomainen ja aamiainen myös.

Plussat: The hotel was clean and the staff were friendly. Nice pools and proximity to the beach was good. Food was good but expensive compared to other restaurants outside the resort.

Miinukset: Because it was out of season they only had one restaurant open. Would have liked to relax at the bar in the evening but it was not open. The gym facilities were very old and need updating!

Miinukset: aamupalan aukiolo sunnuntaina vain klo 09:30. 10:00 asti olisi parempi

Plussat: Henkilökunnan ystävällisyys, alueen siisteys, rauhallisuus

Miinukset: Kuljetuspalveluiden (taksi, tuk tuk) hintojen välistä veto eli muualta kyydit sai halvemmalla

Plussat: The beach.

Miinukset: It was crowded with families with young children. Internet was $7 per hour. Restaurant was very expensive, with incredibly slow service.

Plussat: A great welcome, with a golf buggy collecting us from the entrance, welcome drinks and cool towels. Lovely room, 2 nice pools, right on a big beach, walkable from the small port town. Be warned, the breakfast portions are massive - we ordered bacon, tomatos and salad, only to get a full plate each of each item (along with everything else we'd ordered!)

Miinukset: Sauna & steam were 'payable', not in the gym. Restaurant by the pool was expensive and not the best food we'd had, kids were racing round our table, and the music was tacky - go else where for a romantic beachside meal. Otherwise, great place to stay!

Plussat: Erittäin siisti, kotoisa ja hyvätunnelmainen paikka. Ihanat omistajat, ystävällinen ja avulias henkilökunta ja paljon palveluita saatavilla. Kaikki toimi hyvin.

Miinukset: Ainoa miinus oli hotellille johtava huono tie, mutta se ei varmastikaan hotellin vika. Tuktukit eivät aina päässeet perille, jos oli monta ihmistä kyydissä. Tie todella kuoppainen ja muhkurainen.

Miinukset: The bed was very hard. The TV did not work. We were in a room that had wires hanging out all the walls and not finished. The air con was broke. A huge gap under the front door which let all the bugs and mosquitos in. The bathroom window did not shut which also let all the bugs in. The hotel was out away from the beach in the middle of nowhere, had to walk through woods to get here. I complained to the lady who owned the hotel about the room (Swedish lady who was actually very nice), we were only staying at the hotel 1 night but about 11pm I had to request to move rooms as I could not sleep in the room we were in. She moved us upstairs, which solved the bug problem and the mattress was not as hard. However the hotel rooms themselves are not clean and are all half finished with wires everywhere

Plussat: Great place with awesome sport facilities and swimmingpool

Plussat: The pool. Kettle in room. Provision of drinking water daily. Pool towels provided. Staff were pleasant and friendly

Miinukset: The location up a long bumpy poorly lit lane. This was of course not mentioned in information. The room was basic, especially the shower/wet room. No hair dryer Lack of vegetarian options on menu. No breakfast included. 3% surcharge for paying by card. This is not made clear in booking information but is also unacceptable means to get extra money.

Plussat: Huoneiston koko oli sopiva, uima-allas alue oli sopivan tilava. Oli kiva kun oli mahdollisuus ruokailuun. Thai Boxing sali sekä kuntoilupunttinurkkaus olivat kivat.

Miinukset: Sähkökatkokset eivät olleet kivoja. Lämpimän veden kanssa suihkussa oli haasteita.

Plussat: The staff, the pool, the food, the muay thai, and the beds were so comfortable!

Miinukset: Nothing it was an amazing hotel!

Plussat: It was quiet, and the staff were nice

Miinukset: It was difficult to get to off the main road, as the road to it was a very bumpy trail, unlit at night, and very scary, it took us a long time to find because of the location, it needs proper access to it, the pool was nice but had no lights in it.

Plussat: Absolute value for money. The rooms were incredibly clean and spacious, great views to the ocean. The staff were very friendly

Plussat: Hotel is down a long very bumpy dirt track so difficult to get out from. Need to hire moped or taxi. Food is very good with lots of choice but staff in restaurant aren’t friendly and come across quite rude, a few times I sat down to eat and waited for a menu, turns out you have to go and pick one up yourself!!! Customer service needs some working on here. I had a superior room and it was very basic! Only 1 mirror in the whole room, bathroom door was a tin made door, only 1 dustbin in whole room to place rubbish and toilet waste in. First night I stayed we had a storm and it was raining so heavily there was the start of a leak coming through the ceiling roof and it kept heavily dripping, I tried to call the reception 2 times but no answer and only at 10.30/11pm, no 24 hour reception??! I reported it first thing in the morning and someone came to look at it but ended up filling in the previously leaks that were already there prior. I also woke up on my last morning to a power cut, which turns out when I mentioned to staff it was planned but they didn’t inform guests. Poor communication. Reception were good at making taxi plans when I asked for their help. Pool area is fantastic but sadly I didn’t get to use gym facilities as I hadn’t been well. I think the gym, muay thai academy and pool is what people stay here for.

Miinukset: Location. Customer service not great. Facilities in room poor. Poor communication. Staff not that friendly.

Miinukset: Staff were rude and ignored us! Owner argued over points which were raised and was extremely rude! Awful location down a dirt road ! Some of the rooms were lovely but we booked a superior room and I can confirm it was not superior

Plussat: Pool was gorgeous and it was really quite an inexpensive stay. We also rented a bike from the property with great ease. Owner was really friendly and greeted us personally while we were by the pool too.

Miinukset: We stayed in a standard room which was very 'standard'. It only cost 500 baht per night, so I guess you get what you pay for. Staff also could have spoken a bit more English.

Plussat: 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.

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

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

Plussat: We really appreciated the attentiveness of the staff, they were very friendly and helpful. The location of the property was ideal and very picturesque. Loved that it was adults only.

Miinukset: The beer was very expensive outside of happy hour times, almost twice as expensive than anywhere else.

Plussat: 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!

Miinukset: Honestly, nothing. The resort is exceptional.

Plussat: 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.

Miinukset: 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!

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

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

Plussat: All the food we had at Layana was top drawer and there was a great variety to choose from. Overall the hotel was wonderful and I cannot recommend it highly enough. The staff team were always helpful, provided

Miinukset: Not much

Plussat: They have three pools, all very good with warm water and beautifully decorated. The spa facilities are superb, some of the best massages we've had. The rooms are good, staff is very attentive. They took us to the airport for free and carried our bags all the way to the check in desk. Food is good.

Miinukset: There weren't any fish in the water near the hotel.

Plussat: Food was fantastic, one of the best breakfast buffets ever! Accomodation perfect--everything spotlessly clean. Staff of all kinds were warm and welcoming and would do anything to help. The owners live on the site and mix with the patrons--very friendly and take a lot of care of the facilities. Loved that tips were included in the costs--I hate having to carry extra cash around for tips and trying to work out what would be fair.

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: excellent food at reasonable prices

Plussat: The service was the best my husband and I have ever experienced at a resort. Food was gorgeous and location on the beach, lovely. Everyone was incredibly friendly. It was our delayed honeymoon, got married in feb this year and they really spoilt us. it was quite sad to leave.

Miinukset: The room was lovely but thought it would be a little more special considering the price.

Plussat: Small resort with excellent pool. Pool side staff very attentive and everyone did their best to ensure no detail was overlooked.

Miinukset: The beach was heavily polluted with every kind of plastic bottle, debris and muck. Although somewhat cleared on the beach directly infront of the hotel, most debris was simply pushed to the sides. Walking on the beach was distasteful. This ruined an otherwise excellent resort, but if you cannot go on the beach, why go to a beach resort?

Plussat: The presentation, cleanliness, the pool, restaurant/bar and the Spa,

Plussat: The service was excellent. The best I've received from any hotel. The accomodation and food were also of a very high standard. Staff were always friendly, efficient and willing to help with any issue.

Miinukset:

Plussat: Very relaxing and friendly attentive staff, lovely boutique hotel for couple only

Miinukset:

Plussat: The most relaxing and romantic resort for a couple. The staff, food, rooms, facilities were first class. A delight to stay.

Miinukset:

Plussat: In addition to adults only, which is critical, the hotel literally did everything right. I've never seen a resort get it just perfect the way Layana did. What is most impressive is that we found the staff incredibly attentive, but only when they needed to be. They did not hover or interfere, but were always there when needed. And literally every detail, from the manager meeting us at the boat landing on the beach, in-room check in, activities organization, to a full time staff person at the airport to usher us through the check in process, was flawless.

Miinukset: Absolutely nothing. It was perfect. And I am a pretty critical traveler.

Plussat: The rooms were clean and well equipped. The restaurant was lovely. The staff were friendly and helpful, even with arranging other travel arrangements for us.

Miinukset: There was nothing that we were unhappy about.

Plussat: clean environment, best service, especially MUSLIUM FOOD.

Miinukset: nothing

Plussat: Food

Miinukset: Room on the hillside, staff too slow and disorganized but friendly. No shower box. It is not clean enough.

Plussat: The location of this property is fantastic, we booked all our trips with Alek !! All without fault

Plussat: The location is perfect and just in front of the beach. Reception staff were very friendly. You can rent scooters (although they are overpriced).

Miinukset: No room service, hotel is extremely crowded and there is no space between sunbeds, restaurant and bar are not operated by the hotel so you cant charge things to your room (you always need to carry money or credit cards with you), cleaning ladies extremely slow (you might find that you spent the full day out and when you come back at 16.30...nothing is done yet), concerns with food safety and cleanliness (we both got extremely sick after accepting a pineapple juice from the reception), all in all, i would not reccommmend anyone to stay here. There are plenty of other options.

Plussat: Amazing location, super friendly and pro staff, best food in Lanta

Miinukset: Everything just perfect!

Plussat: Food was awesome..staff was super. The entire resort was great.

Miinukset: Hand towels in bathrooms.

Plussat: The breakfast included a lot of different selections each day. The location is perfect. The staff were very helpful in arranging several tours for us -- a snorkeling tour and a cooking lesson. We enjoyed being in a family resort even though our children are grown and were not with us -- it was fun to see so many little ones having fun.

Miinukset: The resort does not allow alcohol on its premises -- which we did not realize when we booked our week there. There is a bar in front of the resort on the beach but it was confusing at first to have to pay separately for alcohol and to not be able to have a beer/drink by the pool. This is something future travelers should be aware of.

Plussat: Bungalows very clean and comfortable

Miinukset: At 07:00 am guests appeared to “reserve” the sun beds. I was amazed since we have been at 3 different locations in Lanta and this was the only place where we saw this happening. Easy to “blame” the guests but guess there were simply not enough beds. When I made a remark to the staff about it they said “thank you”........ Be aware that the “”beach” is actually a lot of rocks with some sandy spots.

Plussat: The room With 180 degrees open View Towels were fold In origami to do elephants The venue : bar and restaurant offres à vert Nice view to the sea Staff was nice Breakfast is quite good

Miinukset: The beach has to much rocks and the neighborhood is not very lively , tuk tuk or scooter rent mandatory

Plussat: We thought the room was great, a bit of a climb up a hill, but that was fine, we are fit and healthily. The reception staff were amazing very helpful, nothing was too much trouble, always with a smile, restaurant staff were good, a bit flustered at times, bar staff very slow, but that seems the case in Thailand. Our room was spotless, cleaned everyday with fresh towels, couldn’t fault it.

Miinukset: We had a slight wasp/bee issue in our room which staff did try to sort out. There were no bins around the pool area, so untidy guests left their rubbish on the floor.

Plussat: Beautiful views

Miinukset: Restaurant staff needed more training in order taking and restaurant operations.

Plussat: Everything else. This is my favourite hotel in Thailand and just an exceptional stay, we extended our stay whole we were here as we loved it so much. The restaurant is wonderful, we ate here at least once a day, alternating between lunch and dinner. The roti in particular are truly exceptional! And the moon to mars burger has a great spicy BBQ sauce. The location is amazing, perfectly perched on the rocks. The beach is good for swimming, though rocky - but you can walk ten minutes (or two mins in a taxi) to a beautiful long beach with loads of restaurants and bars. The beach bar is great and beautiful The whole hotel is really well thought-out, with attention to detail everywhere. We just loved it here

Miinukset: Breakfast could be better - it's quite lukewarm, no fresh yoghurt.

Plussat: Beautiful! Secluded, by the beach - if you choose a villa.

Miinukset: The normal rooms were in a house further from the beach and did not look nearly as appealing.

Plussat: Best place to stay with private beach, bar, restaurant and small snorkeling spot. Relaxed. Very helpful and attentive service.

Miinukset: Really nothing to complain.

Plussat: Beautiful surroundings, modern facilities, beautiful little beach between the rocks, a lot of trees and nature. We saw crabs, monkeys, lizards etc. Very good breakfast with fresh juices. The sea view bungalows have nice views and comfortable balcony with sofa. The place is very quiet and relaxing.

Miinukset: It is 2km from the center. There are some restaurants nearby but you cannot walk along the beach and via the main road it is quite uncomfortable. Their own restaurant has good food but prices are higher than elsewhere. The restaurant service was not the best.

Plussat: Beautiful views, clean, great location, friendly staff. Would return. Highly recommended for the price.

Plussat: Kivat ja kauniit yleiset alueet. Pari poolia ja kivikkoista hiekkarantaa. Huoneet toimivia, hyvä sänky ja peitto. Oma pieni bungalowi korkealla etäällä muista. Rauhallista, mutta läheisen tien äänet kuului kämpille. Töllössä pari enkkukanavaa ja osassa kielen saa vaihdettua enkuksi. Kuntosalilla juoksumatto ja käsipainot. Ravintolan ruoat jees.

Miinukset: Lyhyt kävelymatka ulkopuolisiin ravintoloihin ym.. Kuntosali kuuma, kaikki ikkunat auki, ei ilmastointia, pelkkä tuuletin. Ravintolan palvelu hetkittäin hidasta.

Plussat: The hotel is really quite thanks to the private beach. The hotel staff is really friendly and always happy to help.

Plussat: Rauhallinen ranta.

Miinukset: Huoneessa sääskiä, ei moskiittoverkkoa . Kävelytie bungalowin edessä. Huoneet siivottiin huonosti.

Plussat: Staff was very professional and helpful. Rented motorbike and booked speedboat. Great service, price, and trustworthy.

Miinukset: Ei erillistä lastenallasta. Ei aurinkovarjoja.

Miinukset: Hintaan nähden ahdas huone, ei vaatekaappia.

Plussat: 1. Not a bad buffet breakfast (but should be improved in variety and sweets quality, and also they do not replenish all that was finished - tomatoes, cucumbers, chicken/meat, etc.). But the chef who's cooking eggs is absolutely awesome, the nicest person in the whole hotel and super professional. Evening food is also great (long wait for the menu and bill at the reception part of restaurant, okay at the beach). Good coctails. Nice personnel at the beach bar. 2. Great beach for walking (and rarely okay for swimming - when the water is high and not muddy). 3. Nice territory with lots of trees and birds, especially hornbills (!!!). 4. Great place to rent a motobike just near the hotel entrance.

Miinukset: 1. Rooms in the new building are not soundproof due to connecting doors between every 2 rooms. Stayed for a long time, but rarely could sleep normally hearing every word (!), also cause of the neighbours - families with screaming babies most of the time, have no idea why they always place them at the 2nd floor. Hotel says that they welcome everyone, but childless people suffer a lot of this noise and nobody cares. 2. Ants, bugs in the room. Door locks with problem. 3. They posted signs about fine for taking food from breakfast at the restaurant and were searching beach bags of some guests (!). Never see that before in any hotel. What a shame! 4. Instead of trying to solve the problems they offer to go to another hotel on every complaint. Not trying to keep visitors. Is the hotel not interested in guests anymore? According to the fact that this year they have more vacant rooms than a year ago (I'm regular visitor), looks like the reason is this new policy of ignoring guest's needs. 5. Manager named June was rude with me and told a lot of lies instead of apologies after. She even made me cry! Also she was menacing me with police(!) when I asked her name for this negative review. Had unpleasant feeling everytime meeting her after. Fire her ASAP, she ruins hotel reputation. Bad reception staff in general: lied about reservation, tried not to return deposit money, no goodbye/help with luggage when I was leaving. 6. Terrible work of person responsible for booking communications. I booked in advance room 901, they demolished that part of building and placed me in another room, which was smaller, with bad smell, cheap furniture and no soundproof. They didn't worry to warn me in advance that my booked room is no available (in fact, they confirmed that it IS available. So much lie). So it was late to rebook. 7. WiFI this year is weak, no signal for hours sometimes. Had to buy local sim card to be online when I need it. 8.

Plussat: Kivat huoneet, rauhallinen matala ranta, erittäin ystävällinen henkilökunta, hyvä aamupala

Miinukset: Kaupat ja ravintolat sen verran kauempana että piti ottaa kuljetus joka kerta

Plussat: Viihtyisä kokonaisuus, ihana infinity pool meren äärellä, hyvin tilaa altaalla ja viereisellä nurmikentällä. Meren rantaa pystyi kävelemään päästä päähän (3km) eli mukava lenkki edestakaisin. Ensimmäisen yön vietimme rivitaloasunnossa, joka oli ihan uudenkarhea ja erittäin hyvätasoinen. 2. krs parvekkeelta saattoi jopa nähdä meren! Pari seur yötä vietimme bungalowissa joka sekin oli erittäin kiva, iso parivuode ja tilava mökki. Omalla terdellä oli kiva kuunnella sirkkojen siritystä ja linnun laulua, ihana rauha. Ravintolan ruoka oli erinomaista, todella hyvä hinta/laatu suhde, ei siis kovin kallista. Ravintolassa oli myös puu-uuni, jossa paistelivat pizzoja, nam! Ranta oli loivasti syvenevä joutui kävelemään melkoisen matkan ennenkuin kastui vyötäröön saakka, mutta pohja miellyttävä. Vuoroveden vaihtelut olivat todella rajut, aamulla/iltapäivällä vesi oli karannut tosi kauas. Vain keskipäivän aikaan vesiraja oli korkeimmillaan. Viehättävä paikka kaiken kaikkiaan.

Miinukset: Ei mitään mainittavaa

Plussat: Friendly staff, nice pool area and a location bit away from the busy areas. 10-20 min walk to the more central areas along the coast. Free transport from the ferry to hotel was nice. The hotel has a scooter rental service so you can go explore other areas of the island (the nice parts in the south are a bit far, 30 min by scooter)

Miinukset: The restaurant was ok (not cheap but not super expensive either), but the cocktails were quite bad.

Plussat: Close to beach Nice pool area Good restaurant at the hotel - had wood oven pizza Biiiig bungalows and big toilet

Miinukset: People reserved sun chairs for their complete stay A bit far from restaurants (at least with kids)

Plussat: The location is absolutely prefect for a quiet getaway vacation. Lovely staff and romantic ambiance near the bar at night. Direct beach access is so comfortable! The shaded area under the trees is great to relax and not get sunburnt. But you of course can get a tan near the pool :)

Miinukset: The breakfast could have been better. We stayed at the newer house (not in the bungalows) and between the rooms were doors (if opened from both sides, you could share the rooms). Good for families to share rooms but not so good if you have two thin doors separating you from strangers. Also, super hear-through room.

Plussat: We had a beach front cabin and there was lots of room to set your chairs out in the sun or shade with a huge long beach to walk which we did every day. The staff were excellent and the food in the restaurant was very good, we especially loved their Thai pizza, I know why have pizza in thailand but they have a wood stove oven and it was That good. You have privacy and it is a short ride into town to do the walking street.

Miinukset: I tried to rent a KLX dirt bike and the wrong bike was brought, not a huge deal but it delayed the start of our day for a couple of hours. Best to go right to the dealer and get what you want.

Plussat: The location is perfect! If you wanna go to Thailand and relax a bit in the small Island of Koh Lanta it’s the perfect hotel for you. The staff is very friendly and flexible. I’ll recommend it for sure!

Plussat: Calm atmosphere,nice beaches for swiming ,runing ,padleboarding and snookering too.Excursion to Coh roch island was excelent! Good taymassage on beach . Werry good food in restoran.

Plussat: A beautiful hotel in an amazing location. The white sandy beach right in front of the hotel was outstanding. The huge pool overlooking the sea, manicured grounds with palm trees and amazing bar to watch the sunset. It all really deserves 10/10. We were upgraded on arrival to Deluxe Sea View bungalow, felt the most private of all bungalows. Would recommend going to the beach zone accommodation if you can, the other accommodation is nice, but closer to the road and it’s worth the extra pennies to be closer to the sea. We also rented scooters and got our washing done at the resort, all great value and perfect. Finally the breakfast was great (the best we’d had in Thailand) so many options and really caring friendly team. Outstanding stay of 5 nights, would recommend to anyone as an amazing base in Koh Lanta.

Miinukset: Nothing, it was amazing. You have got to stay here!!!

Plussat: Excelent place, on the beach. Clean and confortable rooms, cozy environment. Perfect place for a quiet rest.

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: I am so in love with Long Beach Chalet. Staff are amazing and help with all our needs. The grounds and beach are well kept. Very relaxed atmosphere. Can not wait till we return next year!

Plussat: Aamupalalla todella ystävällinen tiimi tekemässä töitä. Jokainen vilkutti innoissaan mennen tullen. Jommalla kummalla uima-altaalla oli aina tilaa, eikä ihmiset varanneet paikkoja pyyhkeillään kuten yleensä. Sijainti on keskeinen, mutta hotellin alueella saa olla täysin omassa rauhassaan. Hotelli on rannalla ja myös rantaa pitkin pääsee kätevästi liikkumaan. Hyvä hotelli kaiken kaikkiaan!

Miinukset: Huoneen ilmastointi oli hieman äänekäs. Keskeneräinen tietyö tärisytti bungalowia ajoittain. Aanupalalla olisi kaivannut enemmän hedelmiä mm. passionhedelmä. Hotellialue on iso, mutta kaipaisi hieman kohennusta ollakseen näyttävämpi. Roskakoreja olisi saanut olla ulkoalueella enemmän.

Plussat: Everything! The stay was amazing. Very nice room, big with a great view. Mosquito net around the bed. Delicious breakfast! Hammocks and sun beds on the privet beach for hotel guests. Scooter rent for 200thb per day with no deposit. Great location!

Plussat: The breakfast was great, the view was even better. Very happy, professional staff throughout our stay - couldn’t have had a better experience!

Miinukset: Nothing, it was amazing!

Plussat: I had a wonderful stay at Long Beach Chalet! Thanks to the low season it felt very peaceful and quiet. My house was neat and comfy, loved the pool area and delicious breakfast every morning!

Plussat: Hyvin toimiva hotelli, hyvä aamiainen , huone siisti. Mukava henkilökunta. Aamujooga.

Miinukset: Puutarhamajat ( ainakin osa) sijaitsee lähellä tietä , joten liikenteen melu kuuluu kovaa. Korvatulpat korvissa sai nukuttua , mutta jos on kovin meluherkkä, kannattaa ottaa maja kauempaa tiestä.

Plussat: All

Miinukset: Lovely people and setting

Plussat: Kohtalaiset kroisantit.En nukkunut,koska liikenteen ja ilmastoinnin melu liian kova.

Miinukset: Hotellin kohdalla meneillään ollut tietyö

Plussat: If you want to sleep on the beach for a couple of days then Kho Lanta is great. This complex was larger than expected with some bungalows right on the beach but the cheaper rooms are close to reception on the main road (about 400m). Staff were very sweet and super helpful. We were picked up from the ferry at no charge and they helped with our departure too. Rooms are a good size with great aircon. The road noise didn’t bother us and we slept 11 hours straight the first night in the huge bed! Nice to have the bathroom separated from the main room area. The breakfast was really well done, lots of choice and very clean. Enough sun loungers and beanbags at the beach for everyone which is always usually an issue so that was great. Drinks were reasonably priced which is good because it’s a sleepy place with very little night life. All in all, it was a very pleasant few days.

Miinukset: Just the proximity to main road. Would be nice if all the rooms were close to the beach side. They are doing some building works but it didn’t bother us.

Plussat: Vastaanoton henkilökunta erityisen hauskoja. Majoitus erilainen. Iso puutarha-alue. Rannan kahvilasta sai hyvää kahvia. Taxi Saladaniin 150bth.

Miinukset: Haku satamasta toimi..paitsi jouduttiin odottamaan toista pariskuntaa; kesti sitten melkein tunnin.. Hotellin ulkopuolella isot tietyöt menossa..Lähistöllä ei juuri mitään.

Plussat: Suodatinkahvi aamupalalla, erinomainen henkiläkunta, siistiä, rannalla ja lähellä palveluita sekä plussaa omasta edullisesta hierontapalvelusta.

Miinukset: Ei ollut mitään mistä voisi valittaa. Olimme reissullamme viidessä eri hotellissa ja Nakarassa hinta-laatusuhde oli täydellinen. Jos pakko jotain ekstraa toivoa, niin juustoa aamupalalle.

Plussat: good breakfast----a nice beach

Miinukset: The bungalow needs renovation

Plussat: Fantastic location. Loved the massage. Looked after by staff especially when discounted with our first room. They also looked after our transfers. A great fire show on our last night. When booking a trip walk to top of the road and save money. Support the locals.

Miinukset: Restaurant food was very mediocre, it lets the the resort down.

Plussat: All good. But there was a sign near the swimming pool about putting towels on beds. If so they would be removed by staff. Staff ignored this happening every morning. Very disappointing.

Miinukset: All good. Hard to find a problem apart from towels. On beds. First thing every morning.

Plussat: Pool, breakfast, beach

Miinukset: Constructions details, building re work, for example cracks on the floor that could be easy patched

Plussat: Hyvällä paikalla rannassa. Aamupala oli runsas, ja kiva allasalue.

Miinukset: Aurinkotuolit varattu pyyhkeillä heti aamusta.

Plussat: Hotellin sijainti hyvä, aamupala kattava ja yleiset tilat viihtyisiä. Siisti ja rauhallinen majoitus suoraan rannalla.

Miinukset: Huone kaipaisi hieman uudistusta. Henkilökunta puhui todella vähän englantia.

Plussat: Good resort with beach access and 3 swimming pools to choose from. The bungalows closer to the beach have a little more character and more space between them. As you move further back the bungalows get closer together. That said for the price paid, couldn’t complain. Beach/Pool towels provided. Great breakfast each day, with just enough change each day to keep things exciting. We rented scooters from the resort for a good price and had no issues, they only asked for a photocopy of our passports, not the original. So glad we did this as Koh Lanta has so much to offer outside of the main resorts areas and some spectacular beaches down south. Resort well located, not too far in a Tuk Tuk from the pier where the boats arrive. Makes a great base to explore the island from. Some great places for dinner and drinks just a short walk along the beach and also some great restaurants not too far along the main road where you will also find a couple of mini-marts.

Miinukset: Bungalows a little bit too close together can feel a little like a caravan park, but get a good rate, as we did, and you can’t really complain.

Plussat: Hyvä sijainti Koh lanta:n parhaalla uimiseen soveltuvalla ranalla. Hotellin lähellä paljon halvempia paikallisia rantaravintoloita. (hotellissa on kalliimpaa kuin paikallisissa ravintoloissa) Aamupala hyvä

Miinukset: Majoituksien taso vaihtelee. Bungalow nimellä myydään samalla hinnalla myös rivitaloissa ja paritaloissa olevia huoneita, joiden äänieristys on huono. Tämä koskee myös parempitasoisia bungaloweja. Beachfront bungalowien edessä on kävelytie sekä yleisiä aurinkotuoleja. Kyseessä on oikeasti täten vain rantanäköalan bungalowit eikä Beachfront. Mökkien varusteluissa on eroja. Toisissa ei ole esim sänkyjen yövaloja ollenkaan ja toisissa on vain yksi jne. Hotelli on aika suuri ja siihen nähden allasalueella on vähän paikkoja. Aurinkotuolit oli varattu pyyhkeillä jo aamulla klo 7. En majoittuisi uudelleen ennakkovarauksella. Lähistöllä on paljon oikeita bungalow majoituksia. Voisin majoittua, mutta huone pitää nähdä ensin, eli ainoastaan paikanpäällä varaamalla

Plussat: En maistanut

Miinukset: En voi maininta epäkohtia

Plussat: amazing swimming pool, very nice location.

Miinukset: relatively weak wi-fi signal if you are in one of the last apartments

Plussat: Direct access to beach. Two swimming pools and good breakfast

Miinukset: Really impersonal hotel. Staff boring of tours operators and do not have a friendly attention to guests

Plussat: Location on the beach

Miinukset: We felt the service staff was poorly trained and didn't speak Thai and so didn't communicate with management

Plussat: Allasalueella ja rannalta hienot maisemat. Upeat auringonlaskut. Siisti hotelli, perus aamiainen mutta ihan riittävä. Lähistöllä hyviä ravintoloita sekä rannalla että kadunvarrella. Skootteri vuokralle ehdottomasti.

Plussat: breakfast , pool and beach---all perfect

Miinukset: several parasols need to be changed

Plussat: It’s beautifully located at long beach, if you have a room with sea view (ask for top floor) you can see the sunset with palm trees, swimming pool and ocean in front. The rooms are spacious and clean and the staff is super friendly.

Miinukset: The breakfast was ok but it could use a little bit more love.. As we were traveling for the first time with our one-year old son, we wanted to try a resort like this for its facilities (shade, swimming pool, baby chair etc) which were good here. Unfortunately the other guests were not so friendly. There are not enough sun-beds so people ‘reserve’ these with a towel. We checked: before 8AM ALL beds were reserved, with no one actually sitting there. We recommend Lanta Casuarina to actively do something about this (like removing towels after 30minutes, like other hotels) because it was really annoying and we did not want to participate in this crazy towel-reserving circus.

Plussat: Ihana paikka ihan meren äärellä. Oma uima-allas oli myös kiva. Ravintoloihin vähän matkaa. Kannattaa vuokrata bungalowi!

Miinukset: Harmittavaa, että hotellin asiakkaat varaavat rantatuolit koko päiväksi vaikka eivät käytä niitä.

Plussat: Sijainti aivan rannalla ja kiva pieni allasalue. Ruoka oli hyvää hotellin rantabaarissa. Aamiainen ok.

Miinukset: Kaikki sujui hyvin.

Plussat: The hotel was lovely. We had a bit of an issue without pickup on arrival, but the manager was lovely and resolved everything. The breakfast was lovely. Hotel is right on the beach and exactly as described. We were going to stay longer but they didn't have room.

Plussat: Very nice hotel, nice garden with swimmingpool. Great for families.

Plussat: Villan sijainti oli kivasti rannassa ja terassilta pystyi ihastelemaan auringonlaskua.huoneiston koko oli sopiva ja nukkua sai rauhassa ilman meteliä. Ranta todella upea ja hieno hiekkainen hyvä uida. Meriretket lähtivät ihan hotellin vierestä, joten ei tarvinnut erikseen matkustaa pidemmälle.

Miinukset: Hotellin henkilökunta ei erityisen palvelualtista, varsinkin aamiaistarjoilussa parantamisen varaa paljon. Henkilökuntaa oli riittävästi, mutta seisoskelevat mieluummin seinustalla kun olisivat vaikka kahvia tarjoilleet. Lämpimät aamiaistarvikkeet esim. pekoni aina kylmää, jos aamiaiselle meni ennen klo 8.00.

Plussat: Really nice pool, big comfortable rooms. Excellent value for money. This hotel is literally on the beach and is also close to restaurants bars (less than 5 mins walk)

Plussat: Grounds

Miinukset: Uncomfortable bed Smoking by the pool Lawn chairs being occupied all day by same people Plastic water bottles..... No fresh coffee machine for cappuccinos, etc. No welcome drink Had difficulty to adjust aircon At this high room price we would have expected free water for coffee maker

Plussat: Very nice infinity pool, fantastic long sandy beach, good beach bars with music around

Miinukset: Asked fee for printing boarding pass, village is a little bit boring

Plussat: great beach lovely pool on a centrally located part of the island
