This hotel was probably great in the ‘70s. It is a little old and tired now. It’s just okay. If you don’t want too much but a bed and a great view of the ocean, it will do fine. If you’re looking for more, look elsewhere. The breakfast isn’t anything to get excited about. The staff is pleasant but I wouldn’t say friendly. To be honest, we stayed one night then found another place for the rest of our time.

Das Hotel ist im allgemeinen ziemlich alt und in die Jahre gekommen. Das Bad bedarf einer Renovierung und die Liegen am Pool sind wahrscheinlich so alt wie das Hotel und zudem auch noch ziemlich gefährlich für Kinder. Das Frühstück war grotten schlecht. Die Auswahl war sehr mager. Das Personal war jedoch immer sehr freundlich und zuvorkommend. Auch der Reinigungsservice war immer ziemlich Gründlich.

Great stay with beautiful beach vibes.
Beautiful resort. The staff is extremely friendly, helpful and will go out of their way to make your stay comfortable. The breakfast is great, the room is clean, the shower is hot, the towels are soft and the views from every room, either the garden or the sea is aestheically pleasing. There is also a tuk-tuk outside for whenever you need a lift around the island.

Beautiful beach. Awesome pool. Wonderful property. Chaba and staff are extremely welcoming at breakfast each morning. A great place to unwind and detach from reality, and a five minute tuk tuk ride into town for decent street food and amenities. Many restaurants are walking distance. Our teenagers loved it here, as did we.

Beauty of location
Hotel is as pictures show. Perfect location for travelling atound the island. Hotel is set back from the road and is very quiet. Pool is set right on the beach, making it easy to have best of both. We were b&b. Breackfast had a good choice. All presented well and tasty. Several choices of fruit, cereals, yogurts, salad, waffles/crepes/pancakes and some currys. There is also a egg station. But the view from breakfast is fabulously.

Definely not an 8/10
Hotel really needs renovating. Beds are rock hard, air conditioning is unbearably loud and I won’t even talk about the showers! Pictures must have been taken many years ago. We checked out after the first night with no sleep and moved to a better hotel up the coast. Only positive is that the Pool area is nice, and the local area has some nice traditional restaurants

Good stay with a nice beach
This hotel is good and clean. The beach bar has good fòod and drinks.The pool was very busy with kids so we did not use it but looked. Gòd food within walking distance. Breakfast was good but the egg cooks need to go to cooking class as they would break eggs in to the pan and break the yoke look at you and laugh. Very pòor. Frt staff and manager were great. If you rent acooter from them check lights and the brakes some are i bad shape. Overall stay was good.

Kind staff, good breakfast, nice pool. Weird hours for the pool, and the hotel restaurant was poorly prepared - out of 3 different menu items we tried to order. Guests were loud until midnight but that is out of hotel control. Overall a nice stay! Would stay again.

This resort was fantastic. Had everything we needed. Rented scooters right at the resort and toured the island. Booked a snorkeling adventure at the resort. Had pick up right at the front door. Beds were comfortable, room was clean. Service was always available. Would stay again and recommend to others.

The hotel location and set-out was better than I expected. Right at one of the best beaches of Lanta. Nothing fancy, but matched our expectations. Restaurant sevice was not impressive at all, but food was good. Several good restaurants at walking distance filled-in for any gaps.

We decided to stay in a beachfront villa ans the view from our balcony was just perfection. The pool overlooks the stunning beach and the rooms are really spacious and clean. I would highly recommend this hotel. The only thing I felt that could be improved is the breakfast as there wasn’t a lot of choice!

Nice quiet break.
Receptionists not that friendly or helpful at times. The towels were old, worn and not always that clean and the room was a bit shabby. There was nothing really to do in the evenings so we had to walk to other hotels and restaurants for food and entertainment. On the positive side the beach bar and restaurant staff were lovely and the location of the hotel with a lovely book and beach was great and made up for the points mentioned above.

Very poor service, nice property
Very poor service - staff at front desk had a very disdainful attitude from check in through checking out. I've not run into this too often, even in living for year in Thailand, and it definitely impacted our stay. The property is beautiful, conveniently located and the pool is right on the sand. Rooms are decent quality = average for Thailand, but clean. Breakfast was above average - but again the service was very bad from front desk, to service staff. Rented motorcycles and they were HORRIBLE quality - should've rented from a private service nearby. After owning motorcycles in Thailand, I was shocked that they would rent in such poor condition and then fight us on a refund when their motorcycle had mechanical failures. Again, I've lived in this country for year previously and am well aware of the realities of quality, etc - but there is NEVER an excuse for front desk staff to be snide, arrogant and disdainful. This happened throughout several days and negatively impacted the quality and comfort of my stay.

The good: The pool is great - looks right out on the ocean and is large Right on the beach, which is beautiful and uncrowded Easy check in, and staff were helpful in arranging transportation to the airport There’s a beach massage place basically attached to the pool area The beach bar sells shakes, ice cream, and sodas you can enjoy by the pool They have many loungers and umbrellas The mediocre: The room is simple and plain, but totally serviceable The shower is ok, but nothing great The provided shampoo is not very good - it made my hair feel like straw (but I also could have gone out and bought some for myself but was too lazy to do so) The beds are hard. Which is typical for Thai hotels, especially at this price point No beach mats provided, which would have been a cheap and nice thing to offer in the room for guests. The sand is hot and sarongs dont really cut it as well for lying out on the beach with friends. The bad: The area outside the hotel is pretty isolated. There are a couple restaurants, but no mini-mart/convenience stores for at least a 7 minute walk, which is annoying if you need an atm or want to grab drinks and snacks. This is of course not the fault of the hotel, but it is something to consider before booking. (And in fairness, tuktuks always wait right at the entrance of the hotel) Overall, the hotel was great, especially for the price. I would stay again. Lots of families and older couples staying.

Wonderful quiet Nice place, but simple and no luxury. Breakfast is minimum, the place seems not well taken CARE of in A long time, but property, rooms, beach and service is great. Pool and beach is Nice. Best would be bungalows by the pool/beach. Massage and places to eat cheap on the beach AS well and more to choose from few minutes Away along the beach. No snorkling at long beach AS far AS we experienced. Cheap food on the main street close by. Low diskrete buildings on the beach.

Nice stay here. Pool is great. Close to lots of beach bars and food. Food at the hotel was pretty average. Reception staff were lovely. We hired a scooter for a few days from the hotel which worked out great. Bed is quite hard and uncomfortable even for Thai standards! We really enjoyed our stay here and extended our trip for another 4 nights because we liked it so much!

Amazing location.. Long Beach is good for sunset and the beach extend to 3 km.. We were at a villa stop close to beach and it was awesome... Good pool nearby the beach.. Recommend for those who like to relax a bit after adventure trip or before venturing for adventures.. The restaurant must improve service, lot of flies at restaurant while having food...

Good hotel with pool and the beach just a few meters away. We had an enjoyable stay and the Front staff was very friendly.There are lots of restaurants along the beach as well so it was very convenient. We left for the airport very early in the morning and they gave us a takeaway away breakfast box which I thought was a lovely gesture. Overall it was an enjoyable stay. Cons: The bathrooms need an upgrade.
