Costa Lanta - Adult Only

Incredibly modern and stylish resort. We had the most comfortable sleep here of all of our Thailand trip. Also has a fantastic pool and high quality food and drinks (lovely ginger lemeade). The peace and serenity was a really nice change from our previous hotel which was more like a kindergarten (overrun with noisy/crying babies and children). The pictures on booking.com don't do this place justice, it's nicer in reality. They should hire a photographer.

The place has clearly seen better times. The internet didn't work and since we didn't have a Thai sim, that was quite a problem for us planning the rest of our trip. We later discovered that internet at the reception did work, but it's annoying to have to keep running to the reception for everything. It was also a bit disappointing that, even though we were the only guests (covid times), they didn't upgrade us to one of the empty chalets closer to the beach. It would have been no extra work.

The location by the beach is fantastic and I like the family-run feel. I also love the concrete Noughties architecture and the birdlife in the garden. Relaxed vibe but warm and attentive service.

Some of the soft furnishings, such as the pads on the sun loungers and the curtains in the rooms, could be updated. A couple of snacks added to the cocktail menu would be a nice touch.

the hotel was so so peaceful, a perfect little paradise to relax. the rooms were immaculately clean and having someone come round each evening to get the room mosquito free was such a lovely extra. we can’t speak highly enough of the staff, they were exceptional - all so friendly and happy and they helped us so much throughout our stay, from organising motorbike rental, onward transfers and also for recommending where we should travel to next. The food (and drink) was amazing, the breakfast was way above what we’ve had throughout our Thailand holiday so far. The woodfired pizzas for dinner were incredible and we both loved the lunch options as well - I genuinely don’t think we’ve devoured food that fast in weeks. The pool was also fantastic, very clean and with amazing views of the beach and grounds. The monitor lizards that we could spot on the grounds were also so so cool.

the only thing that we had an issue with was the design of the room - the openness of the rooms (2 walls open up completely) was a nice novelty but both myself and my partner are a magnet for mosquitos and so to not be able to go back to the room and relax in the knowledge we’d had it all sealed up was literally the only downside to the whole place. I know other people will love this design though and we saw so many people enjoying being able to open the rooms up to be part of nature, but it’s just not something we were as keen on.

This was my third time at Costa Lanta, but my first time visiting during the low season. It will definitely not be my last either. My partner and I were the only ones staying in the resort, which was an incredibly serene experience. We were upgraded to the best room on the land, a few steps from the pool and beach. Although they were running a limited menu at the restaurant due to low season, the team went out of their way to buy us fresh fish from the market, or make us any classic dishes that we wanted. Every meal was delicious. The hotel itself is beautiful, it’s tastefully designed with brushed concrete in open jungle. There are a few very friendly dogs that live in the hotel that sat with us sometimes. The pool is to die for, it’s huge length and deep, with an elegant dark surface. The whole place oozes luxury. I could go on about the place, but you should just book and see for yourself. It’s amazing, but it’s the staff that make this place so special and memorable.

Most bars and restaurants on the beach were closed, which is to be expected in low season. There were still some great ones open, and the quietness of the place actually suited us. High season vs. low season are both great, but each is a totally different experience in terms of socialising, dining out and drinks. If you want a super relaxed and quiet time I actually recommend coming during low season, if you want beach bars and dining go in high season but expect it to be much busier.

Costa Lanta is a very relaxing hotel. I don't think I've ever been on holiday anywhere more peaceful than Costa Lanta. the architecture is unique. That alone is worth experiencing. The rooms are spacious, clean, bright and modern. both the owner and the staff are very cheerful and helpful. You stay in the middle of nature while also having access to a fantastic, large and calm beach. I couldn't get enough of the gorgeous sunset. Considering the peace and rest I have had, I absolutely recommend this hotel strongly.

i don’t think there are enough words in language to describe how i truly feel about this place, the staff, location, facilities, service and food/drinks. it’s very rare that I feel this way but I’m emotional to leave this place. it’s so unique, special, perfectly positioned close to the ferry peer and full of nature, laying back in the amazing pool and you see eagles flying among the trees. you then look over your shoulder and see the most amazing beach with a beautiful sunset. i didn’t catch all the teams names but what beautiful humans. Nee/Ni and Kasma are phenomenal hosts. breakfast is amazing too! try the Musli combo - it’s awesome! Nothing was too much trouble, I rented a scooter from the hotel no fuss or deposits and a very reasonable daily rate! a must for Koh Lanta as there’s so much beauty to see and the island is safe to ride on as the roads are fairly quiet. by far the best resort I’ve had the pleasure of staying in and I’ve been to a few! All staff are amazing at their roles including housekeeping and the garden team along with the more obvious food and drink team. please come here you’ll never regret it! James

absolutely nothing, I wish this place every success in the future and I can’t wait to return within the next year or two.

the staff were incredibly friendly, the nightly turn down and fumigate service was well needed. Very helpful and would recommend to friends

the location, beach and buildings are great! amazing pool. the reception Personal was very friendly and helpful.

the breakfast was by far the worst we had in our 3 week trip. the breakfast personal did not speak any basic English. the rooms were very small but okay.

excellent location, astonishing pool, beautiful bar and restaurant, the bungalows are unique and charming, the managers are wonderful hosts

the garden and common areas need better maintenance and refurbishment, the staff is very attentive but should handle English better, lack of choice for breakfast

Staff are friendly, rooms are beautiful and definitely one of the better swimming beaches without rocks everywhere. Would highly recommend
