Baan Laanta Resort %26amp; SPA

....nothing???

I have not been to this particular resort on Lanta but have been to Lanta in October 2005. We had a scooter and rode all around the island having a nosey at beaches etc.

I can%26#39;t recall this resort it may help if you can tell me what beach it is on then I can give you some feedback on the area.

What I will say is that I loved Lanta it still has an air of untouched. Although in saying this we were there in low season and it was very quiet.

The beaches are not stunning. Be careful where you choose your accomodation if you are a beach lover as some beaches were very rocky.

We stayed on Long beach which is a 3km stretch of white sand with a wavy beach. We had a beach front bungalow at Lanta Causuarina which was a nice small well priced hotel with an infinity beach front pool. The other beach we particularly liked was the southern beach that the Pimalai resort sits on. Again this is a white sand wavy beach. The very northern beach I found to be very ugly. It has a very low tide meaning you have to walk our for ages to get to water.

We took a snorkling trip whilst there out to some islands, nok, kraden, ngai etc which was great and cheap. There is not a huge nightlife on this island just a few laid back bars and quirky type restaurants. Lanta was a highlight on our recent trip. Hope this helps happy to answer any questions you may have

hi

thanks for your help, the resort is located on Ba Kan Tieng Beach.

I think this is the same area as the flash Pimalai resort. If this is the case that area and beach is very nice. It is a southern beach. It is very far from the the town saladan probably 20 km. We scootered down this area regualry from Long beach which is north east. There was a nice small selection of restaurants but no nightlife.

hi

yep ,is the same beach that pimali resort,this is my last stop in the thailand escape ,so i think is the right choice

thanks

Hi there,

Just to let you know, we%26#39;ve just returned from the most fantastic trip to Thailand....We spent 8 nights at Baan Laanta on Ba Kan Tieng Beach - It was amazing! I am one of those %26#39;hard to please%26#39; kind of girls and I%26#39;m so impressed with this place. If you are looking for a total chill out, luxury beach hut holiday then Baan Laanta is the perfect choice. We would recommend villas 2, 3 or 15 as these all share the best view of the bay - definately worth paying the extra. The staff a so kind and friendly, food amazing etc etc. If you have a chance we%26#39;d recommend an island hop to Koh Ngai (Hai) as the beach/water is better there. In fact it is total paradise. Would definately recommend Co Co Beach - steer clear of Fantasy Hotel if you are looking for something a bit special...in my opion it was a bit of a dump! Hope this reaches you before you%26#39;ve left.

hi there i am due to leave for thailand next week and will be arriving at krabi airport and had no clue as to where to stay. Then i read your posting and think that koh lanta would be perfect! still not sure whether to stay at krabi or lanta as i am only staying for 5 days before going to koh tao.

you mentioned coco beach i have looked this up and looks fab! do you have any other recommendations of hotels? budget is around 脙聝脙聜脗拢15 a night for double room. looking for somehwere romantic on the beach and quiet.

any advise would be great! lisa x

Hi

Sadly can%26#39;t help you with other places as we didn%26#39;t really feel the need to look elsewhere. Are you aware Co Co is not on Koh Lanta - it%26#39;s about 1 hour by boat south of Koh Lanta on the island of Koh Ngai(Hai)? Really worth going there - gorgeous reef right off the beach and not so many of the little jelly fish!!

Let me know if you need advise with anything else.
