Avani Plus Koh Lanta Krabi Resort

The resort, the staff and breakfast is amazing. The pools were huge. Bery well maintained resort. The breakfast area was superb, overlooking the hotel’s own small beach. The second swimming pool was also in this area. The Reggie bar is stunning for sunset and drinks. The staff were so friendly, professional and helpful in every way. We went on a boattour to the Island and I left behind my small bag with creditcards and passport. The lady at the travel desk was amazing. They found the bag with everything inside. This was handled and delivered in the best possible way. The gym was great too. Just an incredible and impeccable place.

First it’s worth saying- don’t expect a normal 5* resort, this is Koh Lanta so it’s 5* in comparison to the island options. It’s a beautiful resort in a great location. If you like wildlife & nature this is an excellent resort. We saw eagles, kingfishers, large lizards & hornbills up close at the resort. The staff are really nice and helpful- in particular Wisinee and Ning were incredible. The guys driving the buggy’s we’re great! The reception/tour desk will be on hand to book anything, there are taxis available all the time and you can hire scooters without leaving the resort. The rooms are really nice, the pool villas are amazing- comfortable, clean and everything you need. The little beach is a lovely view, good for fishing, looking for wildlife- but Rocky to swim (like most of koh Lanta) The spa was nice but quite expensive and not the best massages we’ve had in Thailand- a bit hit or miss for a 5*

The resort and rooms are beautiful and spotlessly clean. It’s easy to arrange tuk tuks or bikes from the hotel to explore nearby beaches and restaurants, or you can just stroll down directly onto the beach from the hotel. The most memorable thing about this hotel though, is the wonderful staff. Every single one seemed really happy to welcome and look after the guests with a playful smile. Special mentions to: - Wisinee, the tour agent in reception who helped us organise a private boat trip (which was amazing) and bikes for our stay. She was so warm and kind and gave us some very good advice to save money and stay safe. - Bao (Krit) on the bar, who was super energetic and engaging and couldn’t stop smiling. His face lit up whenever he saw you around the resort, really great guy. Thanks for a great stay Avani!

I spent five days at this hotel, and it was a truly amazing experience! Despite being the rainy season, with frequent downpours, our stay was delightful. The ocean-facing room provided an incredible and serene view, accompanied by the soothing sound of the waves. The service was exceptional, from the manager and reception staff to the restaurant and pool attendants. With only a few occupied rooms during the low season, the hotel provided personalized attention to our every need and request. We rented scooters and explored the island on our own, but also enjoyed relaxing by the pool during the evenings. Overall, it was an unforgettable and highly recommended stay.

Booked 7 nights and extended it by one more night. We loved the place, the hotel, comfort and quietness/privacy. Taking the breakfast with sea view and finishing the day with the sunset on the Rocky bar were great times. At our request, the bedroom was changed to a higher level/floor to enjoy better the sea view. The room was spacious with a big terrace. Please consider you are staying on a island and we may not have same comfort than on a Continent. So shower may have low pressure or some minor insects entering the room - nothing abnormal. We have seen some previous reviews complaining about the costs of the food/restaurant. Yes it is more expensive (maybe 7-10 euros more per dish) than other local places, but let's not forget the comfort, the view, the hygiene aspects compared to locals places + you dont need to commute. There are few places around the hotel at walking distance 10-15 mins walk,,, which were also nice. otherwise taxi needs to be taken. It is also easy to book a scooter directly from the hotel or have day trip on the boat. I would recommend to book one of those (avoiding Phi-Phi Island if you want more quietness other than crowed place). We initially booked the Twin Lotus which got cancelled by our fault and with no doubt we were happy to stay at Avani + hotel.
