The Bungalows were very close to the beach, everything was clean all the time and the staff was absolutely awesome, I forgot my kindle there and they sent it by speedboat to my hotel in phi phi. I was speechless and very happy. Everything was close by, trips agency, restaurants, minimarket. The vibe was magical at Blue sky! Thanks 🙏

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!

Situated 1 km from the famous Long Beach, Green Pepper is a family-run resort surrounded by nature in Koh Lanta. The resort is simply and tastefully decorated with natural materials such as rattan, wood and bamboo. Guests can relax at the community area where tasty breakfast is served in the morning or take a leisurely walk, do yoga or read books in the lush green garden.

As the name Green Pepper already suggests, this accommodation is situated in a green paradise, yet not too far from the most popular spots along Long Beach. At the property, you can rent a scooter at a fair price, which I would highly recommend as it allows you to get around much faster. I had the pleasure of spending nearly 2 weeks there. Where should I begin? The hosts are wonderful - it's hard not to embrace them. Maayan & Mon have created an oasis with Green Pepper amidst Koh Lanta. Ton & the rest of the crew did everything on-site to make guests' stay as pleasant as possible. The room was flawless, very clean, and stylishly decorated. I love the bright base tone with the colorful accents. The terrace is also a fantastic place to unwind in the evening, sometimes even with the lovely cats. The property itself is beautifully landscaped and has a cozy communal area. Upon arrival, you receive a comprehensive booklet with many valuable tips about Koh Lanta. By that you can already tell how much attention to detail is put into everything. There's a communal fridge where you can store your own stuff as well as an extra fridge stocked with beer and soft drinks. Breakfast and good coffee are also available upon request. Right next door, Mon offers cooking classes on weekdays. Of course, I couldn't miss that, but "Cooking with Mon" is worthy of its own review :-) If I had the opportunity, I would have stayed longer, but hopefully, it wasn't the last time. Green Pepper is one of my all-time favorites - thank you for the wonderful time <3

    nice bungalows in a lovely garden, new and very (!) clean. loved the hammock on the balcony. Fresh fruit every morning was a nice touch. So was the Pad Thai on arrival. Bee is such a great host and hard working lady. We needed a doctor when we arrived and Bee‘s husband gave us a ride immediately. Walking distance to beach and restaurants (check out Thai Cat restaurant for lazy beach days). We will miss this place.

    Super clean and comfortable! Quiet area just outside of the centre but a 5 minute walk in to the Old Town. Cheap moped rental available here and 2 minutes away. Definitely recommend staying here rather than the other side if you want something a bit different and it’s easy to get to the other side for beaches. Guesthouse offers pickup from the boat and most bus companies offer free/cheap pick up if you’re moving onwards by bus afterwards.

    Beautiful bungalow set in lush gardens. The bungalow was gorgeous, spacious and newly renovated. Great location 100m back from beautiful long beach. Very quiet. Daily fresh fruit was a treat. Very clean. Best of all was Bee the delightful lady owner who helped us in so many ways - transfers from ferry, renting a scooter, booking tours, local tips for restaurants. We felt incredibly at home here and were very sad to leave. Thanks so much Bee.
