Gorgeous spot in Koh Lanta, Glenn and David were excellent hosts and offered a brilliant service, nothing was too difficult for them, they organised tours, transport, massages everything. Unbelievable value too. Definitely a little gem in Kiantang Bay

David and Glen are very, helpful and go out of their way to assist in any way they can. Lovely accommodation in a great part of the island just over the road from probably the best beach. We chose the 'garden' bungalow and if we went back wouldn't bother with the 'garden'. All rooms have lovely verandahs with sitting out... More

Me an my girlfriend stayed here for 3 nights while travelling Thailand after being booked into a dive in the north of the island. The owners (David and glen) we're lovely and David really went out of his way to make sure we had a great time in koh lanta. The island is quiet this time of year which has... More

We had a wonderful time. Tip top mini resort with very nice owners. We stayed for 7 nights and went to most beaches. This beach close to the resort was the best beach by far. 3 min walk. Food up the hill at kantiang restaurant was the best food we had in Thailand. Very good value at the resort.

Stayed here for 4 days at the end of October in 2012. I was travelling with a friend and we had a room each to ourselves. It is a charming little boutique establishment, run by 2 aussies, if I remember correctly. Rooms are modern and very clean, staff are really attentive and friendly. We only ate there for breakfast, which... More

Great location as it is right in the heart of the area. With everything you need and the beach only 5 minute walk away. The staff were AMAZING! The pool unfortunately is TINY and we only used it to dunk in to cool off but we were grateful that it was there. The whole layout is great and it is... More

The description resort is debatable as for me this implies space and openess. This lovely guesthouse is located in a compound off the main road in a beautiful tropical garden and there are only 7 guestrooms housed in an L- shaped building. However be aware that if you have problems walking, the stepping stones and pebble pathways could pose some... More

This place needs some love! And some serious upgrading. Really bad food and small portions at high prices. In fact the restaurant had obviously run out of food so just sent replacement dishes?? We were so disappointed after eating here we would not stay.

We stayed here 3 nights, the rooms are quite spacious and very clean, the hotel area is very small but well kept and nice to sit out and have breakfast. Just a few minutes from the beach and a nice cool although very small pool. The owners David and Glen are very much on site and David was particularly friendly... More

We found Ancient Realm at the end of an alley after spying a sign advertising a Massaman Curry (a personal favorite) as the chef's specialty. We were met by the Australian owner who was, to his credit, welcoming, friendly and very informative. We decided to give his restaurant a try and now wish we had bypassed that little alley altogether.... More
