After having spent a week at Southern Lanta with kids aged 5 & 7, it is definetely a place to go back to. Extremely friendly staff and management and very family oriented: The room: We were in a family bungalow and it was HUGE. Outside a nice big veranda with tables and chairs and space for assorted clutter. Inside there... more

we stayed in this hotel during the low season, and we had a room with sea view for about 1000 Baht (incl breakfast), which is really cheap! The room was not the most expensive one, it was a bungalow with beach view, just next to the more expensive (and larger) bungalows with sea view. But the view was almost the... more

My bofriend and I stayed here for 2 nights. We booked as the blurb in the rough guide sounded good and the price was reasonable. The staff are not at all friendly, and as someone else metioned in their review, they do not smile at you or acknowledge you. One of the first things we were told on arrival was... more

A friend and I stayed at the Southern Lanta for a weekend trip to Ko Lanta in February. Our bungalow had A/C and was within a 4 minute walk to the beach. However, we did not fit the demographic of the rest of the hotel guests as they were mostly older couples or families with young children. Other than breakfast... more

The staff was very friendly and helpful. The room was nice. We stayed 7 nights in a Superior Bungalow garden view room and the last night in a Standard garden view. The staff was very helpful when we switched between the rooms. The rooms were clean and nice, the only real difference was the bigger bathroom and shower in the... more

We've just spent a week in fabulous Ko Lanta! The resort was lovely, breakfast each morning was lovely, we enjoyed getting our omeletes and scrambled eggs made to order. I love french toast and this was cooked in bulk and could have benefited from being a little fresher. We booked the beach front bungalow, which is a duplex, so most... more

This is our favorite place in Thailand. We've been coming back 4 times. The location is perfect. This is Thailand I think other travellers have had too high expectations. If you want international five-star establishment far a way from the "real" Thailand this is not the place for you. This is Thailand and we love it. The rooms are nice... more

I just returned two days ago from my first trip to Thailand with my fiance and two good friends celebrating their honeymoon. Keeping in mind that this is one of the more "affordable" resorts along this strip, I do have several issues which I think are inexcusable despite the price. They are summarized below. We (2 couples) reserved the 2... more

This hotel needs better management as it just seems to run aimlessly on its own. There are about 8 dogs who live there and they fight, run loose barking at all times of the day and night as well as run through the eating area. The staff just shrug their shoulders when you complain. Terrible food and buffet. Internet slow... more
