Top 10 Resorts in Ko Lanta, Thailand

May 12, 2023 Mikaela Didonna

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

Pimalai Resort and Spa

Pimalai, nestled in a lush tropical forest with direct access to 900 meters of pristine sandy beach, is the Andaman destination to set your sights on. The beach resort combines all the right ingredients - subtle five star comforts, natural beauty, far from the crowds, with no noise except the sound of the waves sliding in and out and slowly breaking onto the sand.

Best Hotel Room of my Life

Reviewed By Kshitij J

This hotel will have a special place in my heart. Stayed in Baan Rawi Suite and my God it is a heaven on earth. It is the most magnificent room i have ever seen in my life. The suite has 4 rooms - 2 bedrooms and 2 living rooms, it also has 2 swimming pools and 1 dining table to sit and enjoy your meal outside. The room overlooks the ocean and it is amazing. Infinity pools and pool chairs to relax when you get tired. The only issue is you cannot leave doors open or food outside the rooms because it will get raided by monkeys. Overall the hotel is very good. There is a seaside/poolside restaurant which has a good spread for food. Limited options in breakfast but will provide extra dishes free of cost if you are a vegetarian.

Lanta Pearl Beach Resort

Welcome to Lanta Pearl Beach Bungalow Resort in the middle of the beautiful Long Beach (Phra Ae Beach) on Ko Lanta. This bungalow resort is one of Ko Lanta's oldest and almost last family-run resorts on the island. But despite the fact of a continuously growing popularity of the area, the 3 generation of family members running this place manage to hold up a true sense of Thai authenticity & hospitality until these days.

Good resort near beach

Reviewed By G2Kpauly

This is a good resort to stay at Long beach. The staff are all lovely. You are close to the beach and a minimart and ATM. There is some good restaurants around the area and some great beach bars and restaurants to watch the sunset. I reccomend Jam Bar. The resort does have nice food I've seen but I only had the breakfast(eggs Benedict) which was lovely. Just make sure to double confirm your bus ticket has been booked if you book onward travel with them. I'd stay again when back for sure! It was very hard to get a run at the pool when I was there as always families had taken over.

Beautiful and peaceful resort with friendly staff

Reviewed By Sean H

This resort is really beautiful but the staff really goes above and beyond to make sure you have a great stay. The resort was pretty quiet due to rainy season but everyone at reception, the restaurant, and the grounds staff were so friendly and helpful. The room was comfortable and clean and had great views of the pool and the sea. It felt like being on a private part of the island with a lot of views and nice facilities. I would recommend.

Everything was to our likes: beach, nearby restaurants, room, cleaning etc. The wifi was sometimes good and a few times less so. The breakfast is very good, both the food and the service. We especially enjoyed our walks in the area on the opposite site of the main road. In between the main road an the hills you walk soon enough in an area with farms, rubber trees and no tourists. The app Maps.me helps to find these smaller paths and roads.

Quiet retreat for family trip

Reviewed By coco2006ariel

The resort itself is quite nice. It’s super peaceful, clean and has pretty much everything you need to enjoy the stay. Staff were generally friendly and willing to help. Of course, since it’s hard to hire more staffers during the pandemic, room cleaning and cooking understandably took longer time. It would be good to keep this mind if you order room services. Btw, there is a lovely cafe called Smoon near the hotel. We spent a lot of time there for coffee, western-style breakfast and lunch. The resort has a private beach, but it’s the best for kayaking, not for swimming or snorkeling. There are too many rocks near the shore and water visibility wasn’t desirable during our stay. The beach is good for sunset watching, though. For those who travel with little kids, it’s a good spot to find hermit crabs. For room tips, rooms with pool view are in a new building which provides bigger space and better internal designs. The seafront villas have better views, but they require a steep climb to get there.

Ultimate relaxation

Ignore any less than 5 stars review and go...now, today or tomorrow. Amazing idilic beach, fantastic friendly staff (you must talk to the guy behind the bar and share his contagious laugh). Everything is great. Yes, some of the rooms may be on the small side but you don't come to paradise to stay in a room, right? I shall return. Life is too short to not be lived to the full.

The resort is ideally located as a base for diving and snorkeling excursions to the neighboring islands of Koh Rok, Koh Phi Phi, Koh Ngai, Koh Mook and Koh Kradan.

This is as close to nature as you can get. Enjoy the privacy and tranquility of our resort with a beautiful white sand beach at your front door, and the natural bushland at your back. We offer the best of both worlds at Sri Lanta.

Open and great service even in covid

Reviewed By sarahc11629

Much of the island is like a ghost town, and the hotel was empty when we stumbled across it looking for some food on the beach. The beach restaurant was open and served an excellent menu with Thai and farang food which was delicious and great value for money. We also swam in the pools which were clean and well maintained even in these difficult times. It is so sad to see such lovely places so empty and the staff working so hard. I would recommend popping in for lunch or dinner if you are on the island
