The room (1102) was infested with cockroaches and lizards!!! I stayed here for 3 nights, and only discovered the cockroaches and lizards on my last night around 1:00 am. I never saw the lizards, but I kept finding little brown pellets on top of my bed. I brought the pellets to the front desk and they told me that it was lizard feces. I found at least 5 lizard poops in my bed, and asked the housekeeping to change the sheets 3 times (which she did). As soon as I was finally in bed, I found the first cockroach near the bed. I didn’t want the cockroaches to lay eggs in my luggage or take them home as a souvenir, so I immediately went to look for staff to help. There were absolutely no staff on the property. I packed up my things and left at 2:00 am, hoping that a nearby hotel would have vacancy and staff to help me. All hotels in the area had no staff at night. Not wanting to go back to the cockroach and feces infested room, I spent my night wandering around the dark town searching for a new hotel, with about 100 lbs of luggage on my back and as a solo female traveller, which could’ve been very dangerous. On top of the pests, there was a huge issue with black mold and mildew in the bathroom and the rest of the room. It was one of those dirty showers where I felt the need to wear flip flops to avoid contracting a fungus. Literally nothing in the room was clean to an average standard. I’ve been to over 100 hotels in my life, and this has to have been the most unhygienic I’ve seen

Expectation vs reality is VERY different in this hotel. Clearly, this was a nice play 15 years ago but now, it’s run-down and unclean without many facilities. The photos have clearly been adjusted, the pool has 3 plastic chairs around it whilst the pool by the ocean had a few more but were all “reserved” by 9am.. The decking around the hotel is broken and falling into the water in places and it’s clear many rooms & buildings are so dilapidated they are now closed. The breakfast is not like the photos, the staff are friendly but the restaurant is unclean and many items are empty and they don’t replace. The metal trays where the food go haven’t been cleaned in a long time, filthy. The beds are very firm so be aware if you like a soft bed. The air conditioning works well and there was always plenty of water in the room.

Spacious, traditional bungalows are linked by a boardwalk that leads to the hotel outdoor pool, dining area and beautiful Khlong Dao beach. Breakfast is good and attended by a friendly, helpful staff. The location is convenient - just a short walk to Main Street and quick access to the beach, restaurants and stores. There are many lounge chairs and tables around the pool and beach front and large trees offer a lot of shade. The area is quiet at night, and it’s lovely to wake up to the songs of birds in the morning. The lighting is a little dim at night, especially if you want to take a shower, but these are minor quibbles. Would definitely consider staying at Royal Lanta again.

Great location and stay - avoid the bar though.

We had a great stay here. For the price and location, you can’t do better on Koh Lanta! My only complaint is the beach bar - they have 2 for 1 cocktails (220 thb) and we ordered one. They were so small you could literally pour them together in one cocktail glass and that still didn’t make a Norma size drink. We complained to the staff about it, but they did not care. Last drink we had there! As long as you skip those drinks, it’s a five star property!

Koh lanta

Resort is lovely and the staff are helpful and friendly. However the rooms are a little rundown and old. The superior rooms are barely a standard room level. The cleanliness was lacking in some areas of the rooms. Like shower gel hold leaked rust and there was no black out curtains or blinds in the rooms. There was bad limescale on all crome in bathroom. However after raising some of these issues with the reception team. I have upgraded to a 2 bed villa room. Which was better bit still not perfect. The location and rest of the resort was good. Right on the beach and u could have breakfast in front of sea.

Very disappointed

Koh lanta and Klongdao beach are my highlight of Thailand so far. The beach is beautiful and the bars (especially at sunset) are amazing. It feels like paradise. As for the hotel, let's start with the positives. Location is spot on with beach access and a short walk to bars on the road behind, and the beach end pool is decent with new decking laid. However, a big proportion of the hotel is in disrepair and little sign of work to put it right. We stayed in a family suite around the top pool and it was way past its best. Very basic facilities and a bathroom which never looked clean. The buildings were mainly wood and much of it looked rotten and in desperate need of replacement. NB The rooms nearer the beach looked better for couples/smaller families. The bar and beachside restaurant were no better. Staff with little motivation and an area desperate for a face-lift. Furniture was tired and worn and no interest in smartening it up, apart from when a function was on (think it was a wedding). Tablecloths were laid and a real effort was taken. It looked much better, but just made me mad the same effort wasn't taken daily for paying guests........it wasnt exactly a cheap hotel. Would I go back to ko lanta.....in a heartbeat. Would I stay here...........very unlikely!!
