Har bott på Lanta Castaway 2 ggr tidigare, -09 och -11.Det är ett toppenhärligt område, men i år hade sanden dragits ut i havet så stranden var inte alls lika fin som tidigare, stenig o trist. Annars har vi bara positivt att säga om Lanta Castaway.

We had a wonderful stay at the Lanta Castaway Resort. Our garden bunglow was just great. one nice room for me and my husband and one room for our teeenangers. The location with the beach just a few meters from our bungalow was just lovely. The restaurant served wonderful food, we ate there almost every day. Both Thai food and western food. We can highly recommend this hotel.

Could benefit from having a pool as the beach is not brilliant. Very nice large rooms. We paid for a beach bungalow but in hindsight would have paid less and got a room further back as no real view of beach/sea and rooms looked just as nice.

Apart from that this is fine spot to relax and enjoy your vacation.

We had the Beachcomber bungalow, of which there is only one...and at a slightly higher price - but it was really worth it. Huge room with extra seating area meant we could sit indoors with friends during rain/evening in full comfort. The grounds are beautiful and well kept and the overall atmosphere very pleasant...more on the efficient and polite side than overly friendly/personal but really very nice people. No pool would never normally bother us, though in the low season, with very choppy seas, actually a pool would have been good. Food at the restaurant: Thai food absolutely top notch. We only had the tortilla chips and salsa from the tex mex section and didn;t venture further! They arranged onward transport for us at a fair price. Lovely place for couples or families...maybe not too exciting for younger, independent travellers after a bit more fun.

Situated right on the beach its still a good idea to hire a motorbike to fully see the island. Dont bother to eat out. The food here is simply the best on offer in the area and the bar staff are great especially if you try to speak thai. Darren is a great hostand rightly proud.

Very nice Resort on Phrae Ae beach, Ko Lanta. The bungalows are nice, relatively new and clean! We stayed there 4 nights and were very satisfied! Supermarket and other facilities on the road just 200m away. Beside this, the retaurant serves good value and nice thai and great mexican food! At breakfast time, you can choose a la carte( e.g. fruits, joghurt, toast, eggs...), an good alternative to the common served american breakfast. Also very friendly and helpful staff! The Prae Ae beach is quiet and good for swimming and sunbathing at the resorts area, there a 2 or 3 other restaurants nearby, and in walking distance a lot of others. So, we absolutely can highly recommend the Lanta Castaway!

A very beautiful resort, with lot's of detail work(nice garden, flowers and colors) The staff is very friendly and even if not everybody speaks good english, they try. The location of the resort I liked very much at the end of Long beach a somehow little hidden place with nice view. The bar is a funny place to be in the evening, there are games and good drinks to enjoy and the thaifood ( we just ate thai) in the restaurant is absolutely great. All in all Darrel and Net buildet up a great small, familiar resort where u can enjoy calm times. Saladaan is not too far away by bicycle (for non-sportif there are tuck tuck's or motorbikes) and if u are a diver or snorkler there's Dive&Relax a great, professional Dive Center located in the resort, we went 2times for snorkeling and enjoyed it alot. Thank's again for a great time, we will be back. Hugs from the 2smiling Swiss Girls

Clean, big bungalows, we stayed in seawiew, 2 adult and 2 children and the beds where so large so we needed no extra bed. Very nice staff and good food in the restaurang, little moore expensive than others nearby, but it was worth it since it tasted so good! When we go back to Koh Lanta, we will stay at Castaway again!!

Lanta Castaway Resort
Accommodation and facilities:
We had the most wonderful stay at Lanta Castaway Resort. It's a small resort with great service, the bungalows are new and clean. The pictures on this website does not do the place justice, it looks much nicer in reality! The staff is super friendly and helpful, and so are the owners of the place. The resort is located on the southern part of Long Beach, so if you re looking for a calm and relaxing environment, this is where you'll find it. The beach is long and beautiful, but sometimes not so clean, however, unfortunately there are no clean beaches on Koh Lanta... We were so pleased with our stay at Castaway that we extended our stay another 3 days :)

Excellent!

Hello, I am very satisfied with my stay on Castaway. As a lonely traveller i was taken care of by the staff. There is not a pool here but that wasn't a problem for me. I enjoyed the sea instead and did not have a lot of noice from a pool... The food was very god and a lot of dishes to choose from. The beer tasted really god at the beachbar during sunset time:-). Massage platform was perfect located and I spend about 4 hours there. Good value for your money. The bungalow was nice and the cleaning good. If I have any complaints it whould be on the pillows in the bed, they were far to big. So thank you Darin with wife and staff, I really enjoyed my stay at your place.

Perfect.

Accommodation and facilities:
We stayed in a deluxe bungalow for one week and we absolutely loved it. We highly recommend this hotel. It was a very well furnished room with thai cuisins and thai paintings. Darin and his team has done a wonderful job with this resort. The service is superb and you feel very well taken care of during your stay here. The breakfast is ordered from a menu, ( although it's included in the hotel price)and it was the best breakfast Ive had in Thailand. Their food is also delicious, especially their pad thai . The only remark we have is that they only have around six sunbeds and three sun umbrellas so there isnt that much shade to hide in. We would defently stay here again. From Saladan you can take a tuk tuk to the hotel for 50 bht per person or ask Daren. He offered to pick us up from the pier.

Accommodation and facilities:
We rented a seaview bungalow, which was nice and big (maybe too big for two persons). After 2 weeks of travelling around Thailand, we finally came to a resort where the staff could speak good english. They where very nice and helpful and gave us good service. Not to mention the owners, Darryn and Niss, who where very serviceminded and made sure that all their guests was satisfied.

No problems, easy and smooth.

Lanta Castaway Resort
Accommodation and facilities:
I was surprised in a very positive way about the resort. very clean Bungalows, good food. Although I´m very picky about things when i comes to hotels and resorts, I only can recomment this place. The pictures of the resort & rooms show the place as it is and not like it was at the opening day. The restaurant is flexible regarding the breakfast times(11am no problem) or having a thai style breakfast instead of American . The beach is not what I call a dream beach regarding powder white sand , no rocks.. but taking one of the offered trips to the various small islands around will compensate this.
Reservation service:
unfortunately it took a long time, until all my questinons were answered, but finally it worked out fine

Accommodation and facilities:
Castaway is a very nice palce, pleasant, and well run by Darin and the staff. The resort is rather small without too much space between the units, and not much shady areas to relax or getting lost . We stayed in 2 connecting rooms which are on the tiny side for a family with children, but yet functional, very clean and cozy. Along Long Beach, a nice beach strech, close to stores and eateries on the main road. As mentioned - the place is well maintained, the stuff is helpful and kind, and we enjoyed our stay. We find the peices fair and overall good value.

I stayed in a sea view bungalow for 10 nights. The hotel was excellent,on a very nice and quiet beach, the room was spacious,the daily service like a 5* hotel, and the stuff very friendly and efficient (especially Pat). The restaurant serves delicious food (Thai and Tex-Mex)and the price is very reasonable for a hotel. I really look forward going back.

Lanta Castaway Resort
Accommodation and facilities:
A rather new resort in the south end of Long Beach. We had a very nice seaview bungalow, spacious and clean without any bugs. They also had some fan bungalows very cheap that looked really good. The breakfastchoices was ok. The food in the restaurant was very good and we can recommend the mexican... The manager/owner along with all staff was very helpful. The roomcleaning could be a little earlier though. The beach in front of the resort is ok but the resort didn´t provide sunchairs and parasolls on the beach. The massage on the premises was very good and had to be booked. A lot of people from nearby resorts used that too. We can strongly recommend Lanta Castaway and if in Koh Lanta again we will return.

We were really pleaseantly surprised by how lovely this property was. The bungalows are new and are simply furnished with Thai cushions, wall hangings, etc. Th welcome from the owners (Thai-American) couple was all you could as for. The breakfasts were great and we really enjoyed lounging in the the beach bar, particularly at sunset. Only slight criticism was the loud music from a nearby property until 2.00am a couple of nights, but beacuse everything else was so good, you could easily forgive it! Strongly recommended

Lovely, low-density resort. Delux Bunglalows are very clean, well serviced, modern/rusic furnishings and interiors. Good value for money compared to basic rooms offered on other lslands like Phi Phi. Relaxed, friendly atmosphere. Food is good in restautant. Beach bar and massage are bonus too. Drinks are a little expensive. Highly recomended.

Efficient and straight-forward.

Accommodation and facilities:
We just loved this small resort. staff was very friendly, bungalow kept clean and breakfast was ordered from meny, even though it was included. hence, we had fresh breakfast in line with each persons preferences. from the hotel you could borrow all you need on the beach or when snorkeling. Their food was also very good. we will defenetely come back to this hotel. we also liked the fact that each room had two queen size beds which meant that the whole family slept in ordinary beds.
Reservation service:
It all worked very well. no problems

The Hotel is very new, direactly at the beach and the bungalows are very nice. We received a free pick up service and back to the ferry too. The rooms are very clean with sea-view, but I don't recomend the beach front bungalow, because its not so privete beside the restaurant, bar and lobby.
Reservation service:
The booking service was okay. We changed from other Hotel and so it was a little bit difficult and a lot of calls, but finally we could changed.

If you re looking for a place to just relax, this is the place to be. It's a cozy little resort, only 17 units I believe, but the bungalows are spacious and very comfortable. The resort sits right on the beach, there is a great restaurant that serves both Thai and American foods, the bar is right on the beach, and if you want a beach side massage, that is available as well. All in all, a great place to go and relax. I highly recommend this resort!
