Lanta Links
Ko Lanta has a wide range of options for accommodation, restaurants and nightlife and activities.
Places:
Kantiang Bay – the south of Ko Lanta. If you’re thinking of going to Ko Lanta, Thailand, do not miss out on a visit to Kantiang Bay in the south of the island. As you enter the bay, you are greeted by a kilometre of white sand beach and crystal clear waters, set against a backdrop of tropical rainforest reaching up into the hillside. With just a handful of resorts that range from simple family-run bungalows to the five-star luxury of the Pimalai Resort, you can live the castaway island dream in whatever manner you choose.
Lanta Old Town – the soul of Ko Lanta. The magic of Lanta Old Town is an intangible thing that’s extremely hard to describe. There’s not many places in the world where you can find accommodation that is literally ‘on the sea’. The sensation of waves lapping beneath your wooden teak-floorboards is strangely comforting and the views from a wooden deck over the water are breathtaking (especially at sunrise). This is a sea-view with a difference! If you’re looking for a unique place to spend some time, where you can truly step back to a place where life unfolds on a personal level, where fascinating cultural events take place on a day-to-day basis and when fresh seafood becomes a way of life, then Lanta Old Town might be the place for you…
Lanta Klong Nin Beach – laid back beach living. Located towards the south of Ko Lanta, Lanta Klong Nin Beach captures the real essence of a beach holiday in Thailand. Lanta Klong Nin offers a great range of reasonably-priced places to stay, a whole host of beach-bars and restaurants and a laid-back nightlife scene.
Restaurants:
Drunken Sailors is a laid back coffee shop which offers a delicious range of Thai and Western food, including irresistible fusions of the two such as Thai green curry chicken burgers. It is all too easy to spend a day lounging in one of their hammocks sampling the extensive coffee and fruit-shake menu.
Red Snapper is a concept restaurant unique to Ko Lanta, providing delicious tapas dishes from around the world.
The Frog offers a spacious, comfortable and very romantic atmosphere with veranda and garden dinning areas and a music lounge for after, or before dinner refreshments.
