Lanta Mermaid Boutique House Hotel

We spent Christmas here this year and had the most wonderful stay. The family who run the hotel are absolutely lovely and made us feel incredibly welcome from the moment we arrived. We had two rooms on the beach side. Although the road nearby can be busy, this didn’t bother us at all. We occasionally heard traffic at night, but never enough to disturb our sleep. The rooms are spotless and the shower is excellent. We also often had treats waiting for us when we returned from the beach, fresh coconut or mango. The fridge in the room was good and enabled us to have cold water. Breakfast was a real highlight of our stay. There was a delicious and generous selection of food each morning, with plenty of vegetarian options. We especially loved being able to choose from traditional Thai breakfasts alongside familiar Western choices. We arrived slightly earlier than expected, but this was no problem at all and our rooms were ready for us. On our departure day, we were also able to store our luggage comfortably until our transfer to Krabi arrived, which made everything feel very relaxed and easy. The beach is just moments away and has a lovely restaurant and bar area. The beach itself is beautiful, and mopeds can be hired very cheaply, making it easy to explore the surrounding area. Overall, we absolutely loved our stay here and cannot recommend it highly enough.

With few expectations we arrived at this hotel. The reception was quick and friendly. There is no elevator available, so it was a bit of a pain that we had to walk to the top floor sweaty and tired. But once in the room we were very, very happy! The room is spacious, clean and tidy. We stayed on the garden side, where there are a lot of crickets and frogs so earplugs can be nice. The air conditioning works really well and makes little noise. The bathroom is nice, with a very nice and hot shower. The shower enclosure does not wet the entire bathroom which is also a plus. The scooter rental service is also very nice to use! This also went very smoothly. Nearby are plenty of restaurants and a 7/11 within walking distance. I would definitely recommend this hotel and come back!

4 nights at the Lanta Mermaid Boutique Hotel did not meet expectations. We had rooms with a view and then the balcony was facing a very busy road. (This road also had to cross to get to the beach and it could often be a dangerous pass). Here it was not possible to sit and have a normal conversation from 0630 AM to midnight, nor could you have the sliding doors from the room open due to noise. The breakfast was also not as expected so we decided that it was best to go out in one of the many small restaurants (along the busy street) where we could find a cheaper and better breakfast offer. Having said all the negatives, we found the hosts to be nice and helpful, the rooms were clean and nice and certainly met our expectations.
