About Krabi and Koh Lanta
Krabi province on Thailand's Andaman coast is famous for limestone cliffs, clear water, and easy access to islands such as Phi Phi, Hong Island, and local four-island loops. Koh Lanta sits within this network of beaches, piers, and national park zones, making it practical for both short holidays and week-long stays. Infrastructure has improved steadily — ATMs, mini-marts, clinics, and tour counters are common — yet the region still feels more relaxed than busier beach hubs.
Check In Krabi publishes guides, hotel lists, restaurant picks, and public place notes to help visitors compare options before they book. Always cross-check ferry times, park fees, and national holiday crowds because conditions change by season. Respect marine parks: avoid single-use plastic on boats, do not stand on coral, and follow staff instructions during snorkeling stops.

We stayed three nights at this hotel and booked one of the villas. These are small standalone houses with two separate entrances, each leading to a hotel-style room.Room FeaturesInside, the room offered a large double bed, a sofa bed, a spacious bathroom, an outdoor shower, and a small private pool. The rooms were excellent—very close to the sea—and guests could freely use the hotel's private beach section with loungers and sofas.
Minor Issues
While the rooms were very good overall, the hotel has been around for a while, so a refresh or renovation in the coming years would be welcome. The beach and bathroom towels were somewhat worn with small holes in places, though they were always clean and freshly laundered.
Outstanding Staff (6 out of 5 Stars!)
The absolute highlight was the staff— all staff members were so incredibly friendly and helpful. Special shoutout to Merry (hope I got the name right) at reception, and the lady handling tours, transfers, and scooter rentals (whose name I unfortunately don't know)—they were outstanding! Their service was impeccable; for example, on checkout day, we stored our luggage, enjoyed the beach all day, then showered and freshened up in an available empty room before heading to the airport.
Great Breakfast
The morning buffet was varied and delicious, with options for everyone—from bread and rice to made-to-order eggs and pancakes, fresh fruit, and hot dishes.Thank you for this wonderful stay!
Good location
Not to far from the Pier (roughly an hour walk or 10 minutes by taxi/tuktuk), where the small restaurants and Street Markets are and at a very beautiful beach just in front to enjoy the day.
The hotel has great facilities overall, especially the pool area and the direct access to the beach. We didn’t use the pool at the bungalow though, it just wasn’t very inviting. The beach, on the other hand, was amazing. It is easy to reach, and also never crowded, which makes it incredibly relaxing.
The staff were very attentive, and the drinks at the bar were really good. The only downside is that the rooms have definitely seen better days, you can tell they’re a bit old. Still, overall it was a good experience and we enjoyed our stay.
Our stay at the Lanta Sand Resort and Spa was good overall, especially for a short two-night visit. We booked a villa with a private “small pool,” which has definitely seen better days. The room and bathroom would benefit from some renovation to match the resort’s otherwise high standards.
The rest of the property is very well maintained, with beautiful landscaping and a relaxing atmosphere. One of the highlights is the beachfront area: plenty of loungers are available, and it’s a great spot to enjoy the sound of the waves, the view of the sea, and the warm weather. It’s a peaceful place to unwind, and the location right on the beach adds a lot to the experience.
In summary, it’s a comfortable stay with excellent outdoor facilities, though the villas could use some updating.
We stayed at this resort for 3 days and our stay was very comfortable and enjoyed a lot.
Rooms: Rooms were spacious and clean.
Service: service was quick and staff was very helpful.
Location: Location was perfect, best sunset in the area and the outdoor arrangement and access to beach was excellent. Quite place to spend quality time.
Multiple swimming pool options, two pools near the beach also.
Other services: you can get spa in the resort.
Food: Food is ok, not much options for vegetarians.
Travel desk : please don’t book anything from here they will simply charge you a lot , you can easily get same thing at much cheaper rate from the travel agents near the pier (6 mins drive from the resort)
The grateful place to be. Rather exclusive compared to other places we've seen. Offering private sun beds in shade, several swiming pools and a beach bar. Rooms were spacious and comfortable. We had two bedrooms and two bathrooms with large balcony for family of 4. That was more than enough.
Service staff was very kind and helpful.
Really nothing to complain about.
