The award-winning dining and wellness spa add to its appeal, yet it's the seamless airport transfer that signals the pampered experience to come.

Reviews and Ratings

Reviews from guests about their experience.
Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
Guests consistently praise the spaciousness of the hillside villas, noting their size (200 sq. meters), separate living room, full kitchen, and the private infinity pool that encourages skinny dipping. The breakfast buffet is also a highlight, complete with a self-serve champagne bar. While some have mentioned that the journey to the hotel included the use of diesel pickup trucks acting as a shuttle bus which were poorly maintained and emitting fuel vapours, the hotel's landscaping creates an exotic atmosphere, contributing to an amazing experience overall.

Really good Hospitality

attentive service special beach smooth transfer great stay
This place was my favorite stay I have had. The amazing customer service, attention to detail and exclusive access to a beach made it very special. I can recommend the airport transfer option because it is smooth. I am grateful and can't wait to return one day.
Monkeys are a frequent sight. They might visit the villa and create a bit of a disturbance when eating outside.

fabulous experience at hilltop villa

private pool comfortable beds friendly staff
I stayed in a hilltop villa for three nights. It was fine! the villa was clean and spacious, with super comfortable beds. my own private pool was great, along with two terraces. breakfast offered fresh choices and plentiful options, the staff were also friendly.
The hillside view is picturesque. Lanta is arguably not the most fine part of thailand. i found the villa interiors somewhat dated, the showers are simple hot & cold taps with no thermostatic mixer.
Facilities

the resort features multiple restaurants, including seven seas and spice and rice, with extensive thai dining. the resort also has poolside cafes located at both pools. i used the resort app, which has features to book restaurant tables, order buggys, or make spa excursion bookings.
