The property itself looked tired. It has potential to be a fantastic hotel. When we first arrived I was shocked compared to looking at photos of the hotel when I booked. It’s badly finished, for example paint is flicking off, reception looked messy, not to mention the hundreds of pairs of flip flops you have to climb over to actually get to the reception/restaurant. Our balcony had no chairs and was smothered in cat litter. I sat down in the empty restaurant one day and ordered a chicken Pad Thai which took 40 minutes to come out although I was the only customer and there were two people working behind the bar and kitchen. Our group of 8 ordered food one morning which when cooked was left on the bar table for a good 5 minutes before the waitress actually decided to bring it over. While it was sat on the bar table I could see flies hovering around our food which was really off-putting. My friends standard room was just awfully dirty. The shower room was so dirty she mentioned she had to wear flip flops in the shower. The shower vent was full of mosquitoes and hanging in rust. Mould on the grout around the sink. Eventually our group of eight decided to check out one day early. The roof top bar is about the best feature. All in all I would say photos of this hotel are deceiving. It’s quite dirty and probably the worst out of the 8 hotels I stayed in whilst in Thailand.

Clean and modern rooms. Muay Thai training onsite - lots of classes and good instructors. Location is 300m from main road, which we preferred because it was quieter and less busy. Nice pool. The only thing that was less than ideal was the poor tv reception and wifi connection.

Staff are helpful just pick a good room
Almost perfect place to stay. Staff are very friendly and welcoming. It's about an 18 minute walk to the beach only downside is that the first room we booked was full of bugs but onc we upgraded everything was fine. Book the suite not the "superior room". Also they have a sign saying that you have to pay to use the pool but nobody charged us

Thank you for the nice review =) I am very sorry about the problem in the superior room but I am happy that the other room was better. The sign at the pool is old and I will put up some black tape over that information =) Thank you for your stay and welcome back! Ps. When you come back I will show you the road to Relax Bay. We walk it in 10 minutes with our kids ;-)

Great hotel! Can’t wait to go back!
We loved this hotel! Bed was super comfy and our room was spacious and clean with AC and hot water. We loved the pool, it was so refreshing to swim in and was also kept very clean. Staff were very nice, though sometimes it was hard to find someone to help us at front desk. Only downside is maybe the rooms could be fixed up a bit more. Although the room was extremely clean, there was wood peeling off the closet door, signs falling, our sink was extremely loose and the toilet would run non-stop. It didn’t affect us a whole lot, but it wouldn’t be hard to fix the issues. The location is great, less than a 5 min walk to stores, restaurants and the beach. Overall we loved the place and would go back in a heartbeat!

Disappointing stay.
We booked the deluxe double room, when we arrived we noticed some bugs in the bathroom, the reception staff gave us bug spray which seemed to sort out the problem. However when we went to bed we found a large cockroach and we had to go to sleep with a glass on it. In the morning we found around 6 dead baby cockroaches on the floor and asked reception if we could move to a cleaner room. They originally told us they did not have a room for us, we asked one of the staff to come and look at the cockroaches, after she did this the reception manager then came to inspect the room. We were moved and upgraded to a superior room, initially this room was fine, however the shower was cold. On our last night we came back to the room and found 2 large cockroaches, 1 small cockroach and a lizzard the room. We ended up having to go downstairs and ask for more glasses from the bar in order to trap the cockroaches. When we left and handed back in our key, I explained to one of the owners about the cockroaches and he seemed to just joke it off and say they would get rid of them. We didn’t receive an apology and he didn’t seem too fussed. Despite the owners being welcoming the hotel itself is poorly finished not clean. The fact we had cockroaches in more than one room is evidence of a problem. There was also renovation work going on by the poolside which we were not aware of when booking. Additionally the hotel is not near to anything and the gym is only free weights.

Hello Cameron I am very sorry for this! I have printed your review and will bring it up on the staff meeting tomorrow. I don't know what owner you spoke to but I didn't now about this and I am really sorry about this. But yes we are renovating next to the pool and soon also the pool and then the superior room. We need to be finished with everything before december. And yes we only have free weights in the gym but that will also develop during the autumn. I have now talked to the staff and they remember you and your problem. They handled it wrong and if you come back I will have a room free for 3 nights for you and your roommate.

We stayed in the older section of the hotel at a great price.. the room was big and clean.. comfortable bed WiFi was not great in the room.. bathroom had loose tiles and in need of upgrading.. pool was very big but they had trouble maintaining it 'green algae'.. there was a Muai Thai gym on site available.. A 8 min walk away were many different restaurants another +3 min to the beach.. Overall for the price it was okay.. .. would stay again..

Very nearly top drawer
Perhaps slightly harsh, but the pool being a murky green really hurt the review score here. Admittedly one of the main reasons for booking here was the good sized pool so it has probably tainted my view, but not being able to see past your hand with goggles on was pretty disappointing. I had a poolside room which was excellent - good size (more like and apartment), quiet and ok shower. Plenty of sun loungers and a restaurant, fairly friendly staff - especially the Swedish owners. Comments about the track to get to the hotel are a bit wide of the mark though - there is a road/track but this is typical of Koh Lanta and there were lights along it. I’d recommend getting a motorbike whilst here anyway as it’s the easiest way to see the island. There was, however, a kids party which overtook the place for a whole afternoon without warning so my afternoon of chilling by the pool was a non-event. They were trying to clean up the pool and seemed to be making progress slowly, but I moved to a place with a cleaner pool for my last week (Lanta Infinity). If they got it sorted it’s an easy 4 Star review, 5 without the kids party!

Not the best but great location
Location was good, near restaurants and bars if you're willing to walk 5 minutes to the main road. Besides that, the staff had poor English and couldn't help me and my rooms was not the cleanest of them. There was mucus on the toilet seat. The closest beach is full of rocks so bring your water shows. Besides that the hotel has a pool that is great to swim and relax.

Hotel next to muay Thai gym.
Nice cozy hotel, just nice for my small family. Kids loved the pool n the house cats. Place is of the main road, definitely need car or tuk tuk. Room spacious, nice living hall also nice view. Only thing is I wish they would mill and wipe down the room more frequently. Out of the 6 days we were there they only did it once. Floors were rather sticky especially with young kids. We did mentioned to them but not sure if they understood our needs. Also breakfast was rather boring. They have 4 diff choices to choose from but would rather have a wider variety, maybe can offer some local flavors on top of the continental n American breakfast offered. Other than that we had a pleasant stay.

Beautiful Place
This is a wonderful hotel if you like quite and to have a pool. It is gorgeous, small, has wonderful and friendly staff and located by the Relax Bay which is one of my favorite places in Koh Lanta. There are people who stay there for months so it has a homey feel. Did I mention they have a Muay Thai Gym? Yes! I consider my stay here as one of the best in Thailand because of overall experience. Motorbike is a good solution to getting in and out since the road leads you around the hotel first due to trees and etc. but you'll need it anyway in Koh Lanta because the island is so big and there is lots of things to see.

Great stay - this is a great find - bargain
New hotel - exceptional value - you need to understand is just off the main road by partially lit dirt road - if we can do it with a 7 year old anyone can !!!!! Take a torch.... No real significant noise from Thai boxing next door - 6 min walk to main Rd..... Great room - great breakfast - nice staff - great pool. I don't know what people expect for their money but you won't get better value than this - short walk down to beach from main Rd - 10 mins total...... I don't know how anyone can complain about this property at the prices rooms are at. We stay in 1 up to 5 star hotels and have traveled globally extensively and in Asia and the Pacific extensively. Enjoy your stay....

Good only for 24/7 Muay Thai trainiees
We only booked this hotel cause we were looking for Mauy Thai training facility. Hotel is not bad, but I am sure there are better ones around. No beach access but nice pool (needs more chlorine for sure). Would I stay there again, NO. They give no deals for people staying at their hotel to use their training facility. You pay same fees as an outsider for the training, so I suggest stay somewhere else with beach front to enjoy the ocean then jump on your scooter to go train. Food was bad, breakfast was horrible and no real coffee, instant one. You pay a lot for a latte and it's cold. Pathway to hotel is very dangerous, not only not paved but with rocks and potholes, you need to be very careful when driving in or out on your scooter. You do need a scooter otherwise it get expensive to connect to the outside world. Rooms are good and clean in general, It is a new facility. Staff are great and friendly.

Should be good once it is finished...
We had a 2 bed apartment, lovely rooms and all new with smart TV in lounge and 1 bedroom. Pool is fine although as a 'Sport Resort' you have it share it with a scuba school fairly regularly and one day it was taken over by a freediving competition. A bit of a walk down dusty roads to get to the beach but if you have transport that is not an issue. Breakfast is average at best and other than that no other food was available. If you are on foot and want the beach look elsewhere but for a really very nice suite type apartment it's worth a look.

Brand new hotel, open less than one month. Needs some fitments to make the stay wonderful, and easily rectified. Examples clothes hangars, hooks on the balcony etc...Road to hotel needs lighting. Loved the Studio idea, walking out to the patio and infinity pool. A great pool for families and serious swimmers. Relaxing getaway location we would like to return to. Management friendly and working really hard to establish this 14 room new hotel, well done. It's away from the main road and beach suggest to rent a moped to really enjoy this picturesque island getaway.

Amazing hotel, everything you want and in style
It is very evident that this hotel is brand new. Everything is sparkling clean, and the hotel staff, in addition to speaking very good English, are happy to quickly help you out with anything you may want or require. The hotel location is maybe 200m up a dirt side road, still very much in the middle of everything, however without the noise that accompanies it. My only let down was that I couldn't stay longer. I would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone planning to stay on Koh Lanta

Koh Lanta stay
The apartment was really lovely, nice spacious balcony with self catering in the 2 bedroom apartment. One thing to add the resort is great if you are planning to visit the gym/boxing stadium otherwise its not peaceful as the training starts in the morning and throughout the day and evening, you can't sit outside peacefully as the gym has no doors, even with the doors closed you can hear the boxing whilst you are asleep as they tend to start at 07:30. The resort only opened in December so they haven't really got it together, no hairdryer in the room, no umbrellas by the sun beds by the pool (only 6 sunbeds), we tried to order food on two occassions and was ignored twice so we gave up and ate outside. Breakfast is not included and none of the rooms have sea view although the booking says it does. No hot water for 5 days. Some improvements to be made. Overall really lovely and complete apartment, top quality

Ett trevligt hotell med en särskild känsla som få andra hotell har. Jag vill starkt rekommendera restaurangen på taket. Fantastiskt vackert i solnedgången och svalt och tyst på kvällen. Jättebra service, liten meny men med mycket bra kvalitet på maten. Vi fick en överlag mycket positiv uppfattning så vi vill gärna rekommendera det till andra. Litet minus för glasdörr till toan som kändes klart olustigt. Men det löste vi med ett lakan för dörren.Bra pool.
