Exceptional family-run hotel with genuine hospitality
Aloha Lanta was one of the highlights of my stay in Koh Lanta. The location is excellent, directly in front of the beach in Saladan and within easy walking distance to restaurants, shops, walking street, and the ferry terminal. Even though it is very central, it sits at the end of a quiet dead-end street, which makes it peaceful.
I stayed in two rooms, first a town-facing balcony room and later a sea view room. Both were very clean, spacious, and comfortable. The beds are firm, typical Thai style, but comfortable with great pillows. The sea view was beautiful. The rooms are simple but well maintained and practical.
What truly makes this place special is that it is run by a local Thai family. My flight was delayed and I arrived close to 11 pm, even though reception normally closes at 9 pm. The manager waited for me, welcomed me with a beer, and offered food. Throughout my stay they helped book activities, arranged laundry, ensured daily cleaning, and were always available. When I became ill, they took excellent care of me.
Some furniture shows signs of age, but everything is clean and well cared for. The value for money is excellent. I would absolutely return.
Par où commencer… Le personnel de l’hôtel est absolument adorable, à l’écoute de vos besoins et vous donnes de super conseils sur les activité à faire ou les meilleurs endroits où aller manger.
Les chambres sont super propres et mignonnes, il y a tout ce dont vous aurez besoin.
l’hôtel est extrêmement bien placé, devant la plage qui est quasiment vide ce qui est extraordinaire et à 2 minutes à pied d’une rue commerçante où vous trouverez tout ce dont vous souhaitez (magasins, ATM, pharmacies, restaurants, brunch etc).
Le seul problème c’est de ne plus avoir envie de partir pour rentrer chez soi !
Je vous recommande l’endroit les yeux fermés :)
Merci encore au responsable de l’établissement pour sa gentillesse et son sourire!
Excellent small hotel. Very clean, quiet and great helpful staff.
In town, can walk to everything you need, and on the beach.
