“little more expensive than some other accommodation but well worth the money as the other places never looked at the same standard. It is located a 15 minute drive from the town/port probably almost the last hotel located that far south but perfect in our opinion.”
“Sri Lanta is one of the “more” upmarket hotels on the island, it is a three star Hotel. The bungalows are all situated at the back of the main entrance and reception area on an incline at the beginning of the jungle, with creatures, insects and all. If you are very squeamish this is not the place for you, but if you are looking for a fun and comfortable Thai bungalow experience this is your best bet. The shower and toilet are outside, although attached to the bungalow. Don't be surprised to find the occasional friendly frog in the toilet bowl, lizard or even a bat in the bathroom because yes you are in the jungle!! However the beds (very very comfortable) are covered by mosquito nets and if you make sure you close the door straight after you enter each time you should stay insect free.”
“Excellent location. Rooms were as described, as expected: natural surrounding, one with nature, respectful of environment, etc.
The hotel is very quiet, and sleep was peaceful (I was in room 313, a very good choice). Beautiful pool, awesome beach at high tide, scenic at low tide because of some rocks.”
“If you are an adventurer or if you enjoy to be close to nature you might like it. But we didn't really. There was no TV in our room, the food at the restaurant was expensive and I had to travel by bike to find a busy bar”
“There were a few critters as the rooms are in the jungle but overall this was a very peaceful zen like room. Breakfast was great, and abundant. Loved the place and loved being there. Cant help but recommend it.”
“Lovely staff, a fine restaurant, high quality spa and daily yoga sessions really makes you calm down in a two-week stay.”
“I really enjoyed my 5 days at this resort. It was far from being a 5 star hotel but I prefer rustic accommodation amongst tropical jungle rather than staying at the “Sheraton” anyway. The rooms were simple yet nice and I loved the pool area and the front of the resort where the restaurant and the bar is located. The staff were nice but I did have a few problems with communication.”
“We recommend this hotel to every one who likes a pleasant and very quiet holiday.”
“This resort will give you complete satisfaction after traveling through Thailand for a few weeks. A must is the four island speedboat tour. You visit four 'Bounty' islands and experience snorkeling, chilling and eating at the beach, swimming through caves.”

“I stayed with my partner at Sri Lanta for 5 nights in November 2006. We had the most fantastic time. We were greeted by friendly staff, who, although their English lacked fluency they checked us in, provided us with a fresh cocktail and took us to our room… The whole point of Sri Lanta is that the hotel blends in with the natural surroundings and as long as you are not a complete insectophobe, the insects in your room (of which we had very minimal experience) can be controlled.”
“very stylish resort, lovely public areas (bar, restaurant, open air spa), generally the staff were very helpful though I have to say some of the staff struggled a bit when it was busy, and yes not everyone's English was great”
“We stayed 5 nights at the Sri Lanta. We loved every mellow minute of this lovely and laid back resort. Our bungalow..a cottage..was perfect. The staff were helpful & charming. Both restaurants are excellent. The Chedi Bar is a great place to watch the sunset. Also, the Spa is of very high standard. The pool is nice as well. While there were a couple of families with small children, the majority of the guests were couples.
Lanta is a rustic island. The roads are not good. But do not let this minor inconvenience sway you. Lanta is on the verge of being a major destination. There is a-lot of resort construction happening. In 10 years, it will be another Phuket. I would catch it now, before it changes.“
