The place was just perfect for our stay in Lanta. Very clean, nice balcony, really nice owner, and staff. The owner even got us some pineapple and water melon, while we were waiting for our taxi at departure. Thank you so much, we will be back for sure, if we are on the island again!! Also thank you for organising scooter for us !! 100 percent can recommend this accommodation!

The hostel is clean, beds are comfortable, the bathrooms are nice. It’s located directly at the beach in a very very nice area of the island. the pool is a great feature! The staff is very friendly and helpful. I booked a bed in a mixed dorm, since it was the last one available, but somehow ended up in a female only - which was really nice!!

Super spacious and very clean room with a big balcony. Great location just by the beach with many restaurants and bars close by. They also rent scooters at a affordable price if you wish to explore the island and helped us book a taxi at the right price. The staff is absolutely amazing and happily helped us with everything we needed. We will definitely be coming back here next time we are in Koh Lanta.

    Ra and Suleiman were the greatest, so many free things they give such as coffee/tea/juice, breakfast, popcorn even. The location is the best hostel you’ll get in Ko Lanta, facilities were good

    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.
