This is the resort that nightmares are made of.

Here are some of the features of these 2 side by side so called "resorts":.

Lanta Long Beach:
The entire place smells like sewage, due to the fact that the sewage collects in the space underneath the breakfast restaurant. For the first day's breakfast, we ate cold eggs, covered with flies, with cold coffee and questionable other food items. The breeze, throughout the whole meal, brought up the smell of everyone else's meal from last week. It was so disgusting, we could not eat there. Staff, especially the manager, were rude and unhelpful and refused to refund the money we'd already paid for breakfast. Finally, the manager agreed that we could move from Lanta Long Bay, to the other side, Nakara, putting the breakfast money towards that resort, but still having to pay the extra for the room.

Lanta Nakara
Once again, the smell of sewege was strong, this time coming from the toilet. We had to move rooms AGAIN. This time we were told the new room had been booked already by someone else and we would have to move again in a day.

We got no help moving luggage. We got no help booking activities - the one thing we really wanted, a trip to the national park, was cancelled (they didn't tell us - we turned up at reception at the agreed time in our "jungle clothes" and they said, oh no, that's cancelled), and they would not find us an alternative person to drive us there.

We hated this place so much, that we were actually fantasising about being at home on the couch. The staff are rude, they are unhelpful, the manager is rude and arrogant, the breakfast is terrible, the rooms are small, not very clean and smell like sewage and mould, the water in the shower is yellow, the mosquito nets had giant holes in them, the beach out the front is extremely windy so lying down in the sand is difficult, and the over all, my husband and I give this resort a 1 out of 10.

Please also note that we are not whingey people - we have loved all other places we have stayed in Thailand.
Baan Lanta resort was fantastic, Haad Tian Resort on Koh Phangan is lovely, Suan Doi House in Chiang Mai is brilliant, Hillside Resort in Koh Samui is great, Sugar Palm Resort in Phuket is lovely too.

As for Lanta Long Beach or Lanta Nakara - I'd rather be at home.

Terrible Service! Their website reservation system clearly doesnt work and our rooms were over booked. Despite that the staff and manager were rude and abusive even though they messed up our reservations due to their gross inefficiency. Narima is also managed by the same management. Beware.

The staff spoilt our entire holiday!

Stay at your own peril.
