Costa Lanta - Adult Only

This was our idea of paradise! A cool, spacious resort with great food, chilled out pool, and right on a peaceful beach. There are a couple of beach bars/restaurants a few steps along the beach too with live music and fire shows in the evening, you can literally spend all your time in the sand if you want. It's worth noting though, if you book a bamboo bungalow then you really are sleeping in a traditional bungalow which involves a mattress on a raised platform and an open-air bathroom. However, it really isn't a problem. The staff spray mozzie spray and light incense in your bungalow every evening and ensure your net is down and tucked in - we didn't get bitten at all at night and slept very peacefully.

We stayed for 5 nights which is probably about as long as we wanted in a bamboo bungalow as the mattresses can be a bit hard. Really enjoyed the stay though :)

Very much enjoyed my stay here!! Costa lanta is by far nicest hotel on the beach in my opinion, I loved the style and aesthetic of hotel. Felt cool and contemporary in a natural setting. Staff on reception very helpful. I will remember my time here very fondly and if I stayed on this beach again I would definitely pick costa lanta. Food i had was very good (except breakfast- room for improvement)

A couple things to highlight, I was solo traveller staying in the cement type pod and it was a very small room, can imagine would feel a little too small with two. However the outside area and the settings I don’t think would be issue for most. Bathroom is open so was a concern with mosquitoes and doors.

its a lovely boutique property- great pool side and beach view restaurant. The massage was lovely and the sunset view is amazing! Great for young couples and friends

The only problem may be the insects at night that come through these 'glamping' style trends. So if insects scare you alot, skip it. If you are okay to to use their room sprays (that do a great job of keeping them at bay) then carry on! I'm personally petrified of insects but once I used their spray it was smooth sailing. We also made sure not to open the door much in the evenings.

Lovely, spacious resort, right by the beach. The staff were lovely and the mosquito turning down service was great and really helped. The pool and views of the beach were amazing. Bigger than it looks in the pictures too. The price we paid was heavily discounted. Not sure it would've been worth it at full price. Breakfast included gave a substantial, if not particularly varied, meal. No children. Trust me, they're everywhere in Koh Lanta. It's like one big creche. So this was a massive plus. Massage was worth the extra 300 baht compared to others to have it whilst overlooking the beach. Close to Saladan pier which is used for Koh Rok/Koh Haa trips. Far from Old Town Pier where 4 Island tours go from.

Although we expected no Wi-Fi in our room, we could barely get on in the public spaces either. Tip: Pay a visit to Kaw Kwang Music and Bar for some amazing food, grab their Wi-Fi code and use it from the beach beds. Certain parts need to be fixed - floorboards, chairs... For full price, some people might feel they should get more for their buck in terms of the room. If you want to lounge in your room all day this is not the place for you. And of course, the mosquitos. But you get used to it. Plus they give you repellent every day, coils and spray the room at dusk.
