Aha Lanta Cozy Hostel, hotel in Ko Lanta

Situated in Ko Lanta, 300 metres from Kantiang Beach, Aha Lanta Cozy Hostel features accommodation with a shared lounge, free private parking and a terrace.

Easily the best hostel I've stayed in in Thailand. It was super friendly, super social, and super easy to make friends. You're a 2 minute walk away from restaurants, a 7/11, and 5 minutes walk to the beach. Rooms are comfortable and well thought out; everywhere is really clean. The breakfast in the morning is great, as are the staff. If they'd had availability I would have extended my stay here because everything was just perfect.

The host was fantastic and super friendly. Even when she wasn’t feeling well she was still going above and beyond. The room was clean and comfy. The only issue we had was there was no hot water initially but as soon as we told her she had it fixed within 20 minutes.

Blanco Hostel Lanta 18 to 35, hotel in Ko Lanta

Offering free WiFi, a sun terrace with a swimming pool, garden and restaurant, Blanco Hostel Lanta 18 to 35 is set in Ko Lanta.

Amazing hostel if you want to chill out, meet people and/or party! It's got loads of stuff to do, cheap scooter rental and is only a two minute walk from the beach. Both the local staff and reps are friendly and helpful, and they organise great social events. The dorms are also very clean, comfortable and secure. The shared toilets outside the 6-bed dorms smelt a little bit at points but this was likely just due to the heat and high use during peak season. They were otherwise very clean.

    Very cheap + basic but totally comfortable for a few nights if you are on a tight budget. Ac works fine and so does shower, so if you are out exploring the island most of the day it’s a great place to just crash at night.

    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.
