Alanta Pool Villa

Absolutely fantastic hotel. It really is as good as the photos appear. Outdoor living room and kitchen, outdoor bathrooms, private salt water pool. 10 minute walk down the hill to the beach. Our villa was completely private in terms of anyone being able to see into our space. The staff are lovely and incredibly responsive via WhatsApp, whether you need food, laundry, or to book a tour. Usually they respond within 2 minutes. Warning that mosquitos are a thing in koh lanta, especially going into the rainy season. Requires diligence with mosquito coils, repellers, and spray (all provided by the hotel). Great wildlife with birds and monkeys. Fridge has an anti-monkey lock for a good reason.

The staff are friendly and helpful. Daily cleansing with fresh fruit provided. Spacious room. The bed is comfortable. Full kitchen amenities provided. Very nice private pool. Good location, embraced with the nature surrounding. We enjoy very much.

This was my favourite place I stayed in the whole of Thailand. The staff set up a WhatsApp as soon as we arrived and were unbelievably responsive to all our needs and wants. They arranged car hire within 15minutes, found us a snorkelling trip when our pre booked one cancelled, arranged for breakfast delivery every morning and taxied us around in the villas taxi. We also had fresh fruit provided every day with bottles Of water. Things to consider when you book, none of these were an issue for us but it’s good to know. 1. There are monkeys. They will watch you on your “outside” toilet and shower. They will also steal any food left out. They run around on the roof around 7am every day and make a lot of noise. 2. Lots of bugs in the communal area, it’s all open. Make sure you have mosquito repellent. 3. It is out of the way and you’ll need to use the accommodation taxi to get places. We loved our villa. This was perfect for what we wanted.

Can’t recommend Alanta Villas highly enough. We absolutely loved it. We stayed in a 3 bed villa with a private pool which was fabulous. Good sized pool set in a garden with indoor/ outdoor lounge area and kitchen. 3 good sized bedrooms all with en-suites and outdoor showers. Excellent location an easy 5 minutes walk to a plethora of beachside restaurants and bars. Very chilled vibe and a wonderful spot to enjoy a drink watching the sun go down, no eurotrash bars. Easy to get transport around the island by walking to the end of the drive and flagging a pick up taxi or their version of a tuk tuk. The team on reception made our stay perfect. We ordered breakfast through them, a takeaway one night, organised motorbikes and airport transfers. Nothing was too much trouble. They even gave our son a water pistol so he could take part in Songkran, the crazy water festival which is basically an island-wide water fight. Fresh fruit and water was delivered every day. So sad to leave - but we are guaranteed to come back! Love to Jude Law and the monkeys x

This was a little slice of paradise! Our villa was beautiful and perfect for a family of four. The staff were lovely, and accommodated all of our needs with a smile. They made everything so easy. Location near the beach was perfect. Highly recommend!
