Anda Lanta Resort

Good customer service from reception and restaurant. Garden Villa - quiet at nights with cricket sounds and bird calls at dawn. Restaurant overlooks the beach and food is plentiful and good. Easy process for scooter/car or driver hire and good rates. But shared shuttle to Krabi we wouldn’t do again due to it 4 hours, three different vehicles, waiting on road side for 40 minutes to meet a transfer van and packed with no empty seats or luggage space available where your luggage is resting on your knees. Villa waste treatment system requires upgrading and better stormwater drainage required during heavy rain for flooded pathways. Nature everywhere. All in all hard to beat compared to other resorts at this price point. Would be good to have designated bar area overlooking the beach.

The Anda Lanta Resort was fantastic. From the airport pickup in Krabi to the checkout, everything went perfectly. The staff is incredibly friendly and goes above and beyond to fulfill all requests. The value for money is excellent, and our week at the resort was truly wonderful. Please keep up the great work!

Found this hidden gem by accident really. Its one of last resorts in Ko Lanta Yai (South) which means that it does take about 2-3 hrs from the airport but its a scenic journey nonetheless. I would highly recommend using their private airport transfer service as you are guaranteed a seamless ride to the location. The price is reasonable for the quality of their vehicle and comfort.

The resort itself sits on a flat land facing the beach. We took the beach villa and absolutely loved it. Spacious rooms with all the necessary fittings. Aircon works great for hot humid days and the bed is fluffy and comfortable. Bathroom was huge and water heater & pressure were great. Housekeeping is diligent, discreet and fast. We loved our room which faced the beach directly. You will notice how their gardens throughout the property are immaculately maintained. Due credit to the quality of the gardening team here.

The beach itself is beautiful but tricky because you can't see where the rocks are underwater. Here's a tip, walk straight from the middle of the 2nd row of beach chairs and your path will be stone-free! Be mindful however that the ocean brings in a lot of trash onto the beach but since its a private property their beach is cleaner than their neighbour. Another tip is to coincide your booking with the Lunar cycle. The moon travels east to West at night and her journey takes place right across the beach sky so watching the moon transition into full will be an added delight. It was low season and rainy when we went but the sheer tranquility of this place always makes you feel at peace.

The restaurant is a highlight of this place. The chefs are well trained and nearly every dish we ordered was very tasty. Spice levels can be easily communicated beforehand though their default level is almost no spicy heat at all. We thoroughly enjoyed eating here and were happy not to go out in search of good food.

Location wise, this resort is at the end of the single main road which means shops and other restaurants are at least 1.5km away. Fortunately, the resort provides rental scooters by the hour to facilitate these needs. I would say that knowing how to ride a scooter is almost mandatory in order to truly maximise the value of this resort. Alternatively, stock up on munchies and alcohol before arriving and you're pretty set.

Finally, the staff of this resort makes it a true gem. While they might not go out of their way to make your wishes come true (since it was low season they had lesser staff which makes economic sense) but their warmth and friendliness always made you feel at home. As you can see, we had an awesome time here and would happily return someday.

Great resort. Quiet and serene.
Had the Forest View room which actually had a nice glimpse of the sea

Pool was a bit cloudy, and jellyfish inundated the beach. (got stung)

But even still a great holiday

The beautiful Anda Lanta resort is located on a very nice semi-private beach in a quiet area of Koh Lanta island. The pool, rooms, dining and other facilities are conveniently located near the gorgeous beach. The rooms were spacious, balconies/ patios were lovely and the food was very good. The staff was professional and very helpful.

Although it is a beautiful resort with lots of nature around and away from were most the tourist stay, appears to be marketed to young families as there were many children splashing, yelling and running around the pool; just being kids. This is not a relaxing atmosphere for couples or someone who wants peace and quiet. The lounge chairs at the beach were more relaxing.
Although of this minor inconvenience, we would definitely consider returning to this exceptional resort which was a value for the money.

My room is part of an 8 Plex so I guess there's going to be a bit more noises around in the 'walls '. Other than that even the forest view rooms have rad views depending on where up on the hill you're perched.

Location is a plus or minus depending on your plans and itinerary. It's in the south tenth of the island, 10 minutes from the national park.

I liked it.

It was the best hotel for us. Secluded location, on a private beach shared with just 2 little restaurants and a bar. Perfect to relax and enjoy your slow time there. Lovely pool, decent coctails, super convenient and resonably priced laundry service. Breakfasts good, maybe not perfect but very decent. Excellent massages on premises (more pricey than in touristy locations but outdoors, almost on the beach - perfect). Front desk super helpful, helped us with getting any local trips we wanted, as well as renting a scooter. Walking distance from a picteresque waterfall and elephant sanctuary. Highly recommended.

One of the most beautiful resorts I have been to!
Everything was laid out so nicely, from the rooms to the restaurant, pool and beach. I was very comfortable and the staff ensured that. I will only say it was far away from the action which some people might prefer. There were a handful of restaurants down the street and on the beach for variety. Great dive/ snorkel side excursions!
