We stayed at The Houben for 5 nights & wished it had been much longer! We were welcomed by Eric & a refreshing drink & were given lots of useful information about the hotel & Koh Lanta generally. The staff here are amazing- attentive, respectful & so proud of their resort & island. Our room had fantastic views over the infinity pool & the bay/ sea beyond. It is the perfect spot for watching the long tailed boats go past & the sunsets. The room itself was spacious & clean with a huge bed, bathroom with big bath & separate walk in shower. The balcony had comfortable seats & we were lucky to be able to watch a family of monkeys playing around the pool & grounds early one morning. We had previously been in Bangkok & Ao Nang which was a really busy time so The Houben was our chance to relax & recharge, spending mornings enjoying the great a la carte breakfast & around the pool then heading out in the afternoons. The hotel is within walking distance of plenty of restaurants serving great Thai food & a couple of bars. Kantiang Bay boasts some of the best sunsets & is a beautiful beach to watch the world go by. The people here, both at the hotel & the wider area, are so friendly & helpful- we loved getting out & about via Tuktuk & taxi to explore. Lanta Old town is small but has fantastic restaurants with spectacular views. I cannot recommend The Houben enough- it was the best stay & we felt that we were a million miles away from everything- a genuine slice of perfection. Thank you Eric & your team, we hope to see you again.
