Beautiful unique place built on the water. Amazing boho atmosphere, community vibe. Yet you have your privacy, cozy rooms with private bathroom and air con. So nice and chillax! We went back to stay in that place during our trip. It was more than we expected!

It was really handy to stay here our first night on Lanta after arriving at the pier. You can avoid all the shouting taxi’s and just walk to your accomodation. It’s a close walk to the night market and main supermarket too. The room was lovely, spacious and clean with a full glass window, so nice! Minimal, modern decor. They had a water machine and helpful staff, really liked it

everything was fine and pleasant. good location - quiet for sleeping but still close near the shops and restaurants. It's directly on a beach but sometimes the tide is very high and the sandy part is covered up. but much of the time there is plenty of sand and you can walk a long way on the shore or choose to swim. Other beaches are not far and it's easy to hire a scooter and explore. I recommend this family-run hotel

What a great stay!! I slept in a private room with airconditioning. The room is small, but fine! Ozone beach house is of course close to the beach. I quickly felt at home upon arrival. Lloyd (the manager) is a really great host. He is very helpfull and arranges everything you need. If you don't like loud music, don't come on thursday. On this day there is always a party on the beach. This was not a problem for me though.

Such a nice charming place. It started with a very kind welcome as we were greeted with some fresh ice cold Thai drinks and apple. Wake up @ Lanta was a great spot for us as we came to Lanta for the diving. (We went to Ko Lanta Divers and it was perfect) We could easily walk to the dive shop, atm, exchange office, and to the restaurants close by, there's even one just outside the hotel (burgers) which you don't hear from the room so thats good too. On the opposite side and not too far either, probably around 5-10 min walk was a 7/11. The room was sparkling clean and comfortable with both a good ac and fan in the room. There was a kettle with coffee and a fridge filled with water for us.The shower in the bathroom didn't have a shower tray/bottom but it was completely fine to use and equipped for it. In the hotel itself there are a couple of common areas where you can chill and read including a selection of books you can pick up and read through while you're there. Upstairs there are bean bags and chairs to lounge in too. Additionally there is laundry service, bike rental, transport and probably anything you could need here. Definitely recommend this hotel as it's good value for money, and will come again if we're in Ko Lanta again :)

All hostels in Ko Lanta

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

Nice social hostel with restaurant, bar, pool, pool table. Near to cheap restaurants and to the beach. You can book the 4 islands tour with them for cheaper. Activities almost every night with nice staff. Clean and 2 toilets for 4 beds (great ratio)

Lovely hostel. The owners are super lovely and helpful. Helped us book transport, trips, were super chatty with us and even asked around the hostel to see if others wanted to join us to go to the old town festival that was on to make the taxi cheaper! Bathrooms had enough toilets and showers for everyone and the room was clean and comfortable!

Best hostel I’ve stayed in on my travels so far.Staff are so kind and will go out of their way to help you in any way they can.Breakfast you have the choice of eggs how you would like them,toast,fruit,juice,tea,coffee and muffins etc. Rooms are clean as well as the bathrooms and the beds are comfortable.Only a two minute walk to the beach and lots of nearby restaurants.There is also a separate quiet area for working and a free popcorn machine which is a nice touch. They also rent out scooters for a cheap price.
