The owner was a lovely man who took the time to patiently teach us how to use a motorbike before renting it to us. The room and bathroom were spacious. Facilities could use a refresh eg; very old looking toaster and hairdryer in the room. Location is quite far from shops/restaurants and beach so a motorbike is a must.

My room did have the odd insects in it, and the fridge turned off when I removed the keycard. The room was also a bit rundown, but I saw another room which was much more modern, so it seems to be luck of the draw. You'll definitely need to rent a scooter, since you're a bit away from the thick of things here.

It's hard to describe the charm of this place: It has something about it that quickly made me feel at home. Perhaps it's the charm of the host, Nan, who makes it so easy to rent a scooter from him (110cc for €150 per day), or who'll book your bus back to Krabi for you. Or perhaps it's having a pretty self-sufficient room in the centre of the island. The location, in the centre of the island, makes it easy to see all the main sites. The layout of the 6 rooms are communal, and it was easy to get chatting to the neighbours. I really loved this place.

Bed is big but not the softest (although that seems to be the case in most places in Thailand)

We had a wonderful 10 day stay at Lanta Happy House! Nen was a very attentive host ready to help with anything we needed. Bedroom and bathroom both spacious with lots of space to lay out luggage, strong aircon, big fridge and possibility to refill drinking water in the courtyard. Nen also rents good scooters and organises laundry for a good price. The small property (5 rooms?) is in a lovely quiet place close to nature and the neighbors have cows and chickens. Less than 10 min walk to 7-Eleven and restaurants and close to the quiet Beautiful Beach that ended up being our favorite on the island. We also found the best snorkeling just at the beach directly down from 7-11 & Beautiful Beach!

The bathroom really smelled bad, like sewage and we had a cockroach issue, I'm talking 5-10 cockroaches in the bathroom, though if you come to south east Asia... you will encounter them. Sewage smell is also super common in Thailand. Not an issue for us, but could be for a picky traveler.

The host is wonderful, such kind people. The room itself is very attractive, and modern. The room was clean. Location is good, and they offer motorbike rental. Also had free water and coffee. There are also tours and transport you can book directly which are cheaper than online. Overall we had a good stay!

I think the photos are From the early days when it was new .Little disappointed.Its out in the country side about ,5 minutes moto from main road .Cows next door likes apples and head scratches .Make sure you have water they may forget to get more.They don't restock coffee or clean rooms etc till you leave .The soap dispenser broken in bathroom . Little annoying I just bought the same one ,go on shopee and get another.The bed are firm. Please go get more padding Lanta Happy House it would be worth it .

Garden setting out in the country .They had Motos to rent and petrol refill.Rooms are big enough and there's a line outside to hang clothes.Couple bottles of water and coffee to start off with .Fridge ,kettle and decent coffee cups .

I seriously have nothing to say here. I loved my stay there very much.

I loved everything about it. Honestly. It was surrounded by a chill energy and the host there was a very kind and helpful man, that can help you organize your time there with various tours etc. Also, he rented motorbikes on the site, another very comfortable addition. The room felt like home, the environment was super quiet and i felt very rested leaving that place. Hope to come back soon!

Location is fine if you have a bike but might not work for some others. It's very rustic, so you need to be ok with bugs!

The owner, Nen, was super helpful and friendly. We loved how quiet the place was, felt like a more "local" experience than some of the other resorts / bungalows we saw. Very good value for money. We liked the hammock. Room was big and AC worked well. Bed was on the firmer side but we liked that.

Nothing, genuinely loved this place.

This was my favourite place we stayed in our whole 6 months of travel! The owner is the sweetest man who went above and beyond to make our stay perfect, always offering us fresh fruits etc that he had grown. The bungalows are beautiful and so peaceful, and it felt like real authentic Thailand which we just loved. The property is just down the road from 7eleven, all the main restaurants and both ‘beautiful beach’ and ‘Khong Khlong beach’, but if you’re a solo female traveller or even a couple, a bike is needed as it’s not very well lit, but I think that’s to be expected if you want a peaceful little place, out of the way from all the touristy places. We rented a bike for a super reasonable price off the owner though and felt super safe, the locals waving at us every time we drove past just making our experience perfect. I could not recommend this place more, if you’re in Koh Lanta then you need to stay here!

Very relaxed experience. Owner/manager was nothing but attentive and responsive. From helping us settle to find locations and finally taking care of our whole transportation towards Bangkok. Place was clean and equipped with anything you might need. Even motorbikes for rental. Awesome place. Completely recommended.

- Minor: lights in courtyard are quite bright and on all night with thin curtains so it could be quite bright in the room during the night

- room is very spacious as is bathroom - toilet and shower are separate so the place stays dry - only 5 rooms so it's quiet - the owner, Nen is such a lovely, genuine and helpful guy - having a hammock and private sitting area is nice - nice restaurants and shops are close about 10-15 minutes walk. As with most of Lanta you will want a scooter to get almost anywhere - what you get for the price is incredible, the facilities are very good - having a fridge is great - free filtered water

Everything about the accommodation and the proprietor was just as we had read in the reviews. Nothing negative to say about Nen and his property - only positive things!

We very much enjoyed our stay at Lanta Happy House and wish to thank Nen, the proprietor, and his family for the warm welcome. Nen was always available to provide advice, rent us a scooter, drive us in his 3-wheel Tuk-tuk, organize a fishing excursion, a 4-island group excursion and the speedboat journey from Koh Lanta to Koh Lipe and so much more. The room was large and very clean and comfortable. The property has only 3 contiguous rooms on one side and two bungalows on the other side. There are two nice sheltered sitting areas. A great restaurant (Ann's Easy Food) at the bottom of the street (a must for travelers - the food is very good). Nen did everything he could to make our stay comfortable and enjoyable. The location is an 8-minute walk to the main road and 12 minutes to Khlong Kong beach. No problem at all for anyone who enjoys walking. Many restaurants and shops on the Main Street and on the beach. After 2 days of our 7-day stay, we rented a scooter from Nen and drove all over the west side of the island. We highly recommend Lanta Happy House to travelers visiting Koh Lanta.

Nothing

It’s a family owned/ran small resort of 5 bungalows. We stayed for 4 nights in December. Family of 5 so we rented 3 bungalows. The location is lovely, set back from the beach and restaurants but only a couple of minutes away on the scooters. The bungalows are basic but clean, have large comfortable double beds, decent air con, good sized fridge to stock up beers to enjoy on an evening sitting out on the wooden veranda out in nature. Nen the owner/host was so helpful and friendly, he arranged our transfer and ferry, arranged laundry, hired us scooters, recommended restaurants, beaches to visit.

I had an amazing time staying in Lanta Happy house. The location is so quiet and peaceful, better to have a bike to reach it but the owner also rents them. Rooms are perfectly clean, cozy, great bed, A/C, warm shower, fridge….everything you need for a comfortable stay. Your own patio with a hammock and seating area is the best 😍 The owner is super friendly, always available to anything you need. Absolutely would stay there next time when I’m in Koh Lanta!

Great location, easy access to many areas of the island via moped. Host was very welcoming, helpful and informative! Moped hire on site, fresh water bottle refill on site, laundry service, book boats and transfers from through host! Well priced bungalow! :)

Nothing our stay there was perfect !

One of the best we had in Thailande ! Really comfortable and peacful place. The room is big and perfectly clean ! Everything room has its own little cute terrace. The location is good, 10 min from the main road by feet or 2 by scooter, also from a 7/11 and really nice restaurant. The place is in the center of the island so you can visit everything easily. The hoste is really nice and happy to help everytime he can ! I definitly recommend this place

In the night the street is really dark, so you need a flashlight, if you go by foot

Nen was so nice and helpful, thank you very much! The Room is large and it was the first room in Thailand with a hairdryer.

Stayed in November 2023

The only thing was our water would sometimes run a little brown and our sink didn’t drain properly

I loved that it was located in the middle of the island, made everything so much easier to get to on a scooter. The beach was walking distance away and the rooms were in a quiet area with peaceful surroundings.
