Lanta Palace is picturesque and the location can’t be beat if you’re looking for a relaxing, romantic spot. The beach is clean, with soft sand and warm water. If you’re lucky, you will find little crabs on the beach (they’re so cute!). The room is large and beautifully designed, and comes with an AC unit and a mini fridge which was helpful to keep us/items cool. Staff have been so amazing, helpful and respectful. The area is a bit quieter, which is a plus for us since we wanted to relax and enjoy our time together. It’s easily walkable to the main road where there are street vendors/local eateries, massage parlors, etc.
While I loved the mosquito netting (which we used, since I’ve been bit a few times), it doesn’t come with anything to hold it together. The bed is also a tad hard and uncomfortable for my liking. We woke up early (4am) everyday so it didn’t bother us, but there is a mosque located behind the property that plays chanting noises over a loudspeaker starting at 5am and then occasionally throughout the day until about 9pm or so. It’s loud but quite soothing (?); bring earplugs as the soundproofing is just not very good.
Overall, we would love to stay here again in the future.
