Distretto di Ko Lanta: i migliori hotel a 5 stelle

We spent 11 night here with my husband and 9-year-old son, and we all really loved the place! We stayed at the Pond room, and even had a partly sea view. I highly recommend booking Pond room instead of little cheaper Deluxe room. Pond rooms are all close to the pool and other services, whereas Deluxe rooms can be really high up the hill. We are not afraid of hills or steps, but even for us climbing all the way up felt quite exhausting (we did this once). Good: - The room was always clean and with good amenities. - Nice pool area(s) - Thaiboxing facilities a nice extra - Really good breakfast with anything you can ask for. Cappuccino etc. can be ordered (free). - You can walk (15min?) to nearby beach with many restaurants (you do need some adventurous mindset and a good flash light in the evening, though). You just need to locate the small wooden bridge and ignore the gaps :D - Nice restaurants short drive away (Coco Tango our absolute favorite with stunning view at sunset), drivers always flocking outside the resort gate. - Also some casual restaurants on walking distance and even right across the gate. - The spa was divine (though really, really expensive on Thai standards - one hour massage was something like 50 € with the happy hour discounts 😅) Not so good: - The bed is HARD. I mean _really_ hard. I was really surprised to find the bed to be such poor quality in a five star resort. I was sore the whole stay as it was impossible to sleep nicely. Even though I loved the place, this is the reason I would not return --＞ So, if someone at the hotel is reading this, please do invest in softer mattresses! (or even soft mattress topper) Good to know: - The monkeys invaded the resort area few days before we left. The staff did their best to keep them out, but still we had few encounters with aggressive monkeys, one of them even flashing teeth and rushing towards our son. I know, we're in the tropics and this could happen, but just to let you know to be cautious. - Some places were a little worn out (e.g. our terrace wooding was partly falling apart), so if you are looking for shiny and new, you might find these small flaws disturbing (we didn't mind). - Prices for food and drink are high (as one can expect in a five star place). - It is quite far away from Saladan, which is good to know if you for example dive (boats leave from Saladan, but dive shops do arrange the transportation, you'll just be the first and the earliest to be picked up) All in all, I do recommend this place, I just hope they would fix the bedding. It was really uncomfortable even on thai standards (we have been staying in much cheaper places with decent mattresses). Luckily there was heavenly spa that helped with the aching muscles 😜

Un hotel fantastico in una posizione fantastica. Il personale è incredibile, il miglior servizio di sempre, non possono aiutare abbastanza. Soprattutto Su, che si è preso cura di noi così bene e ha fatto davvero il possibile per rendere il nostro soggiorno fantastico, Il ristorante era delizioso, sulla spiaggia e il cibo era ottimo. Abbiamo trascorso un soggiorno incantevole e ritorneremo sicuramente! Grazie ancora Su!

This is a lovely hotel and a great relaxed resort. The best of both worlds. Room: We came for a family holiday (kids age 12,11,7) had a 2 bedroom villa, which was a good set-up. Nice size pool between the two rooms. Beach villa 507/507. 2 mins walk to the beach. Youngest slept in our room as worried about passing the pool in the night, but we knew this beforehand. Probably the best room set-up and location we’ve ever had. Pleased with this. Lots of wildlife.. monkeys, monitors, frogs.. we loved this. Food: we had Thai buffet which was good. Great selection at breakfast. Aside from this, we ate at local restaurants- which were very good. Head out of the hotel and turn right. At the end of the beach there is a little village - lots of little restaurants. All very quiet due to lack of tourists following covid. Don’t be put put off by the quietness. Everything is fresh and delicious and you will be totally spoilt. I really hope tourism recovers a little here - the local people are desperately in need of it. ‘Same but different’ shack on beach (out of. Hotel and turn left) is small, but good food for lunch. Rice and noodle dishes, stir/fry, fries, very reasonably priced Lassis/soft drinks and beer. We ate here every lunchtime as it was close to our villa and couldn’t have asked for better. Beach: The beach is public, but Pimalai side is very quiet. Complimentary kayaks and paddle boards etc. we had a lovely family time. Excursions: hotel organised excursions are great and reasonably priced. We did morning mangrove tour - our tour guide (Gun) was superb. We also went on sunset cruise with snorkelling - also great! Downside: On check-in, we had no orientation and very little info about the hotel when we arrived. We were told everything was on the app. However, there was no internet in the room when we arrived (I think an external problem) so we couldn’t access it. We felt a little deserted. This was not a big deal - but we had no map or any real info about the hotel and surrounding area. It took 2 phonecalls to reception to explain we had no idea where I’m the resort we actually were, and no idea how to get to restaurants/no idea of food choices at hotel. They brought us a map. We arrived in the late afternoon after a long journey from London via Phuket. Nobody suggested where we go for food. Nobody asked if we wanted to make a reservation to eat. We headed out of the room to find food- with 3 very grumpy, tired and hungry kids. We found that there was a Thai buffet at the hotel - but only knew about this as it was on the route out of our room to the lobby. Nobody mentioned this when we checked in and we wouldn’t have known if we were staying anywhere else on the resort. Advice for people with kids— avoid top section of resort/hillside if you want to be near beach. It’s a bit more of a trek. Both pools are lovely and nicely shaded. Overall a lovely stay and wouldn’t hesitate to return.

This is our 3rd time visiting Chada, but its been 4 years since our last visit having read the reviews I was a little nervous of what to expect. We were given an extremely warm welcome back from the staff especially from the manager Anong who was absolutely delightful and checked in with us throughout our trip. The location is amazing on the beautiful Khlong Dao beach with lots of bars and restaurants on the sea front to choose from. The pool is lovely, the rooms are great and breakfast was also good. We travelled with our twin girls who are 9 and I would definitely recommend it

Consigliato per le coppie. Abbiamo aggiornato in una piscina. Avevi una bella 3 giorni a Avani + il personale era bellissimo e ci sentiamo molto rilassati e guardando durante il nostro soggiorno. L'hotel è in un grande luogo per un riposo tranquillo e il noleggio di una moto dal desk front è raccomandato per la 5 min di guida alla città principale. Le strutture erano molto pulite e controllate.Le piscine erano immacolate e perfette per un bel po 'di relax. Il pranzo era buono con molte opzioni. In generale, si consiglia e resta ancora! Grazie ancora a tutti i dipendenti, ci piaceva ogni minuto.

This is our 4th hotel out of 7 on this particular trip but sadly comes in a bit lacking for me, I had very high expectations. Firstly on check we asked about hiring a moped. The girl on the tours desk barely looked up from her phone and said “no”. We managed to rent one down the road at Miami but this is the first hotel I’ve ever stayed in Thailand that doesn’t help with motorbike rental. We didn’t approach her for anything else as for me, first impressions last. Our room was okay, can’t imagine when booking why I thought a bath on the balcony was a good idea! My bad! There was tons of wardrobe space and the bed and pillows were comfy. Lacked conditioner & body lotion which I’ve found in other hotels. Generally the room was a bit tired and needed a good deep clean. The bathroom mirror hadn’t been cleaned since the last guest and we had ants around the sink on day three. The shower had very intermittent water temperatures and had black mould at the bottom near the drain. Also tea/coffee spills on the floor that hadn’t been mopped. The communal areas I also found to be grubby and unkempt. No-one sweeps up leaves and they get mingled with bits of rubbish. The sunbed areas aren’t mopped so drink spillages give sticky dirty patches. You get the gist. Breakfast was really good, plenty of choice and half decent coffee. I just found the ambience to be generally quite standoffish and unfriendly, apart from Mr Bunty who was lovely. Most days we went out to Horizon Bar on the beach, much nicer vibe. There are no showers or foot washes between the beach and the pools which results in the pool being full of sand. All in all I have been disappointed, for the price I expected better. Small improvements would make this hotel much better.

What a joy to find this wonderful boutique hotel sitting on the cliff top above Kantiang Bay . We stayed 3 nights and it was bliss ! The rooms are comfy , clean and spacious, The staff were fantastic , there’s a great little air-con gym and the breakfast was superb. The red pool sits in the centre of the hotel and is a great friendly hang out where we met some lovely people. Its only a short stroll down to the beach and the village with the fabulous HIMALAYA restaurant. Undoubtedly the best place we’ve stayed in Thailand. Just perfect .

Alama era una buona sorpresa! Tutte le mie opzioni migliori erano state completamente prenotate e guardando le foto online, mi aspettavo un soggiorno/alloggio medio. Ma per la mia sorpresa, Alama era meglio di quanto mi aspettavo e potrei pensare di tornare. Ho prenotato l'Apartment con Garden View e sembrava proprio come sulle foto.Personalmente amo la parte meridionale di Koh Lanta, quindi per me la posizione era perfetta. Ci sono così tanti bar e ristoranti a piedi, più un auto a noleggio scooter, un 7 undici, ATM e, naturalmente, Kantiang Bay. Alama è così alto, può essere un passo per la vostra stanza o per la piscina/la colazione, ma la vista da lì è solo stupenda e il modo perfetto per iniziare il vostro giorno. Spero che non ti dispiaccia nemmeno i passi! Solo sapere che non c'è alcol (ma si può portare il proprio) e il bagno ha una cortina e poi c'è una porta in legno al dormitorio, quindi se avete problemi di privacy, non lo consiglierei.

Mi piacerebbe stare qui di nuovo in un battito di cuore. Ma guardate qualche problema: Cons: - La musica al vicinato Perché non il bar va tutto il giorno da circa mezzogiorno a mezzanotte. La notte può diventare molto forte, soprattutto durante e dopo gli spettacoli di fuoco. Le orecchie e/o la macchina sonora sono un must. Se siete sensibili al rumore e necessitate di un sonno assoluto, non restate qui. Ma anche mantiene il prezzo basso, che è un bonus. - Le camere potrebbero utilizzare una pulizia fresca e profonda. In generale è abbastanza pulito, ma la doccia ha bisogno soprattutto di un buon scrub. La camera inferiore che avevamo era molto odore. - Le opzioni per la colazione e il ristorante in generale sono molto sottomarino. (Anche se le uova erano sempre perfette). I piatti di buffet del colazione “caldo” non erano tenuti caldi e erano generalmente sempre freddi. Non è sicuro perché. Il caffè era terribile. Pro: - Perfetta posizione su Koh Lanta! Minuti passeggiando verso la piccola città (7/11), su quello che dico è una grande spiaggia con una buona vibrazione. Molti ristoranti e caffè circostanti. - Viste e giornate sono spettacolari e si trova a pochi passi dalla spiaggia. - Situato verso la parte meridionale dell'isola, che abbiamo trovato molto più bello del nord, e non isolato come il lontano sud. Noleggio un scooter per una facile guida in tutta l'isola. - Le aree che si appenderanno sulla proprietà sono grandi. Le letti solari intorno alla piscina, hammock sul vostro ponte, raramente abbiamo lasciato la proprietà. - La piscina è eccellente, pulita e ben mantenuta. - I giardini intorno alla piscina sono così belli e ben mantenuti. Se si può tollerare i coni, prenota questo posto presto per un furto di un accordo. Altamente raccomandato.

Infatti, tranne il signor Kwun.Nessun altro sorride molto.E'meglio come un negozio di cucina tailandese che riesce a ridere.Come hotel di posizione più alta.Ti prendi felice e prendi soldi. Il tuo livello di servizio, il tuo ambiente sanitario, la tua posizione geografica e le tue strutture di accesso devono essere rispettati.La qualità complessiva del personale di servizio è molto importante.La meditazione è anche importante.La signora con la testa (risorridente per i bianchi, fredda per i cinesi) ci porta nella stanza dell'hotel. Ci sono due camere vuote, per usare una di esse.Naturalmente, la nostra famiglia non è necessaria.Ma non puoi presentarmi.Perche'imposta che paghero'per l'intera stanza.Non importa quante camere ho il diritto di usarla. (Alla fine non abbiamo usato i dipendenti puliti perché non volevamo farci stancare, e non ne avremmo bisogno) perche' abbiamo deciso di andare all'aeroporto di Ammi alle cinque del pomeriggio.Quindi l'hotel si è lasciato dopo le due del pomeriggio.Il capo dell'hotel ha organizzato un altro rifugio per noi.Grazie mille. Ma la signora con la testa, ci ha portati in soggiorno senza aria condizionata.E'stato caldo in luglio.Mi fa disturbare.Non so se la signora ha la sua idea o la decisione del capo dell'hotel. Non mi ingannate, ho scelto tre o quattro camere gratis. Il giorno prima ho detto direttamente quanto costava più soldi per ritardare la partenza.Il signor Kwun ha detto gratis.Ho deciso di riposare in hotel. Come sapere che il prezzo è troppo alto o non c'è aria condizionata in quel momento, non importa se mi occupo di un hotel a prezzo basso da solo.La buona mente del capo, portata dalla signora Tenshen nella sala da soggiorno, sono svegliata e calda.E'difficile. Dopo, ho chiesto al capo di nuovo, e sono andato a dormire in camera da letto con aria condizionata.Anche il capo dell'hotel ha accettato.Ma non so perche'piu'di questo punto di torsione.Finalmente, quando sono partito, ho messo 100 tay per chi pulisce la stanza.Possiamo sotto e il capo. Non riesco a capire perché mi dia un appartamento per riposare gratuitamente, ma non mi dà la condizionamento.Finalmente, grazie ancora per l'aiuto del signor Kwun.Grazie.Ecco una conversazione di micromail con il capo dell'hotel (forse il manager).
