Andalay Boutique Resort

The rooms could do with just a touch of TLC, our bathroom had a constant 'smell' to it. The staff/store areas between the reception and rooms and pool etc could do with a tidy BUT after all that said I would return in a heartbeat!!! We were in room 113 which overlooked the sand rather than the pool but this was absolutely fine. Just one word of warning the bar immediately to the lefthand side of us has party night every Sunday and it didn't stop until 4am while we were there. I should imagine rooms overlooking the pool wouldn't hear it. The older receptionist is just lovely so very funny. Older waitress at breakfast couldn't wait to help you. The breakfast was just fine... 2 juices, water, coffee, tea, eggs cooked to order, cereal, fruit salad, Breads. Such a chilled out vibe. We did venture onto the road once but realised we really didn't need to everything we needed was on the beach. Such a lovely feeling to never wear shoes, to walk the beach each morning, to watch spectacular Sunsets from Andalay bar. It really was the most relaxing 3 days for us. Beforehand we had been in Chiang Mai, Phuket town, Nai Harn, Tub Kaek and Ao Nang. Even as I write this in the grounds of Beyond Krabi in Klong Muang which is beautiful I realise just how amazing Andalay was. I will definitely be back to Koh Lanta and Andalay!

This is a perfect hotel for us, one of my favourites I have ever stayed in. Location is perfect, on an amazing beach. You can hear the waves from your room. It’s isn’t luxurious, but has everything we needed. Lovely friendly staff, great restaurant, good happy hour every day between 4-6 pm. Breakfast is free with your room, it is just fine, with amazing views of the sea from the restaurant. The cottages are spacious, with a big comfy bed. Nice power shower. Room cleaning and free water every day. You can book excursions from the hotel, all at a good price. They also do laundry for you at a good price, The pool area is lovely, located just by the beach. The location of the hotel is good too, with many beach bars and restaurants close by. All in all a great little hotel that won’t break the bank.We have another 5 days here of our 2 week stay and will be very sorry to leave.

A stunning location on an underpopulated beach. Comfortable rather than luxurious. Lovely, smiley staff who kept us entertained and well looked after. Homely and comfortable. We liked the fact there were so many other bars and restaurants along the beach but it was not noisy, unlike some other places we have visited. Don't expect wild excitement at this hotel but quiet relaxation It can be used as a base for other a tivitirs.

The stay at Andalay was like a dream! A tidy, cozy, spacious room smelling good, amidst a tropical paradise, along with a fantastic beach, a lot of facilities and an impeccable service. Two pools embedded in the garden invite to dwell and the restaurant serves a lot of tasty food. Excellent in any way!!
