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.

Excellent small hotel. Very clean, quiet and great helpful staff. In town, can walk to everything you need, and on the beach.

First off I want to say that on many other trips this hotel / room would have been sufficient but on this trip and at this price I didn't find these rooms acceptable. From the photos of the property we feel that the photographer did a great job but it does not represent it well. To be fair if you are in the area to dive and just need a place to crash this will do but this is at best a 2 motel and out does look like there are other options. The owners on the other hand I would like to say were so nice and pleasant. We had no complaints about them or their service. Just that this property was not what we were looking for at this point in our trip.

Amazing staff! They really make you feel at home and help with whatever you need. Cannot recommend them enough. Much love

The hotel was nice and quiet. Just what I needed. And a beautiful view of the ocean.

The room was clean and comfortable. Front desk service was fantastic. Great area. The building is a bit older and the photos are not 100% representative of the rooms, therefore may be slightly overpriced.

I wanted a simple room for exploring another area of Krabi and this was perfect. I elected to have a room with a fan, because I prefer natural air even on the warmer side, but they do offer both! This property is clearly well cared for. The staff went above and beyond to help me. I arrived hobbled by an injury from earlier in my trip and they were so gracious to me! I highly recommend Aloha Lanta and it’s kind and thorough staff!

Our stay here was good, we have no complaints about anything. I would like to add that the guys that own this hotel are awesome, willing to do anything for you. They were so nice and helpful

Good location friendly staff

Our first impression of Saladan Ko Lanta was that it was a lot more touristy than we expected, but we adjusted pretty quickly. The Aloha Lanta is a short (5-10 minutes depending on our motivation) walk to the ferry dock. We mistakenly did not include air conditioning when we booked but, after the first night, adjusted pretty well with a room fan. There is a beach of sorts 30 meters from the hotel, but there is a huge sand bar that limits swimming to high tide or the channel where power boats go in and out of the docks. Getting to and from the hotel took us past dozens of seafood restaurants and the main road (#4245, never found a name for it) has more restaurants and street cafes, our preferred places to find real Thai food (rather than DDTT, dumb-downed tourist Thai meals). There is the Lanta Mart for food and drinks (large Chang beer for 57 Baht compared to 100-130 Baht in a restaurant), lots of dive shops, a 7-11, Lanta Massage (10% off with card from hotel). The best thing about the hotel was Peter, the host who opened the hotel at 7-7:30 a.m. and closed it at 9 p.m. He was friendly, willing to talk with us (and interested in us), quickly worked to fix a noisy fan, and just an all around great person. When I came down with a 36-hour gastroenteritis illness, he helped my wife cancel our kayaking tour and get a half-day tour for her, provided me with a case of water, and offered to get me electrolyte powder from pharmacy. Can't say enough good things about him.
