Pana Long Beach Resort  

On Ko Lanta’s shoreline, a short stroll from Long Beach and Klong Dao Beach. The resort sits about 7 km from the town center and puts Pra Ae Beach, Maya Bay, Pak Meng Beach, Kawkwang Beach and Sala Dan Pier close at hand.

A laid-back beach hotel with a garden setting and just four air-conditioned rooms, each with a private patio, fridge and flat-screen TV. Expect simple, comfortable rooms with showers, mini-bars and complimentary toiletries, plus a massage room and a picnic area on the grounds.

Swimmers get both a pool and an outdoor pool, and you can rent bicycles or book excursions at the tour desk — wake up to sea-breeze mornings and easy beach access. Onsite perks include a bar, airport shuttle (surcharge), free self parking, an ATM, laundry and dry-cleaning services, plus luggage storage and a safe-deposit box.

Complimentary wireless internet across the property keeps you connected, and a 24-hour front desk handles transfers and tour arrangements.

Unwind at the resort bar after a day on the sand; rooms also come with mini-bars and refrigerators for snacks and drinks on demand.
