Back to basics
I really enjoyed staying here. It is a handy location with almost instant access to the beach. You do have to go without home comforts though as there is no ac but a fan and it is open to bugs but there is a mozzy net which is sufficient. A back to basics place but at that price worth every penny

Shocking accomodation. Hotels should review it NOW
We booked 'Superior Queen Size Chalet'. Nothing 'Superior' about it. This accommodation was small, standing room only in the bed area, more holes in the walls to let mozzies in than a sieve, mozzie net full of holes, mattress 4" thick and full of springs and no padding. Not even a ceiling fan advertised but a decrepit desk fan. Outside on 'balcony' some seating with filthy cushions that the cat obviously sleeps on. Outside its noisy being next to a road, smelly being next to a non moving water course and the view is the back of the kitchen with hanging laundry and discarded box piles. We left after less than an hour staying only to use wifi while trying to find other accomodation which we found just up the road for a slighty higher rate including 2 pools, breakfast, nice restaurant, etc. Take this review SERIOUSLY! This is a bad place. Ignore and whinge at your leisure. We lost £158 and Hotels should be offering up compensation. Worst accomodation in 4 months of SE Asia travel.

Enjoyed our stay
We really enjoyed our stay here. It is very basic, but exactly what we were expecting from a hut on the beach. The beach outside the front of the chalet is stunning. We would recommend mosquito repellant as there are lots, day and night. We stayed for 2 nights and this was definitely enough time! The staff were friendly and really helpful and offered lots of other services including laundry and motorbike rental.

What we liked : Some of the staff is OK, the owner is cery nice and pleasant The food is great at the restaurant and not very pricey but still a lot for the location The village of challets is very close to the beach - literally you go out and go in the beach There is a net over the bed which helps you with the mosquitos The challets are clean-ish, you can feel the smell of fresh linens There were puppies and we could play with them What we didn’t like : the water situation is bad, cold water, toilet leaking, water leaking from the sink Mosquitos everywhere due to bathroom being moist because of the water situation in the toilet What we hated : This location is for people that prefer the wild, and have no preferences for comfort what so ever. Some of the challets have horrible beds, the mattress is horrible to sleep in The value for money is not worth it, you pay a little more and you can go to such a beatifull island like phi phi. The hotel offers trips but if you go a little further, you will find trips as cheap as 600 baht (they offer same trip with 1000). There are no toiletries like soap or shampoo. There is a bar close to the village where music is loud so you will not be able to sleep. I do NOT recommend this place if you like comfort, this is for people that want something really cheap with no comfort. Is not even quiet as during the day you will hear the cars and during the night you will hear the bar. We would not come again for sure.

Beach delight
A better desciption of the actual facilities available would be advisable. Although we had an enjoyable 3 days, as the chalet was virtually on the beach, the bamboo hut was very basic. However, staff were delightful, we could use their fridge and the beach restaraunts were good.

Good location close to beach
Good location next to beach. Owner was very nice and welcoming. The Beach huts are basic but suit the purpose with everything you need for chilled stay. The only downside is noise from karaoke bar next door. But would definitely stay again. The restaurant is good and if required there are cheap eateries closeby.

A paradise for non-spoiled travelers
This is the first time we stay at a bungalow. At first it felt a bit small, but once you chill a bit, you realize that you're in paradise. If you're not too spoiled and looking for a place to chill, I would definitely go to there (we spent 4 nights). Ma, Rann and Pound will help you with everything you need and will make you feel at home. The bungalow itself is just 20 steps from the best beach in Lanta, and the domestic restaurant is great as well (Rann is the chef).

Small family business bamboo bungalows. Super cozy and chill with hammocks and mattresses on the porch. Host family are very sweet and accommodating. I have stayed at many places in Thailand and I've never been personal with the owners in the way I was with the lady running the place - she felt like a second mother. They are also running a restaurant and bar that is a decent place to eat or drink. Right at the beach. Things to consider before booking: * Mosquitoes get in an out at will. There are a lot of them. * Can't lock bungalow while inside * No noise isolation from surroundings If you have good mosquito protection (or are one of the lucky ones who don't get bit too much) and bring earplugs you will have a way more comfortable stay. I stayed for a week and the novelty wore off after a couple of days and I started longing for more comfort and convenience. Perfect for staying a weekend or so. As clean as you would expect a budget bamboo bungalow at the beach, no more or less. WiFi was surprisingly good.

Fun experience, but you get what you pay for
We liked the experience of staying in beach huts, however, the huts were quite small and obviously very hot without air conditioning. We also found lots of red ants in our room. The deck with the hammock was very comfortable for relaxing and the proximity to the beach was awesome!

Primitive, over sized "dog house", stay away
I could not stay there at all, got there about 2.00PM, the lady showed me the place, like an over sized dog house, pictures are deceptive, the bathroom is an add-on plastic enclosure, no room for luggage, so I had to make a new reservation to a resort. Stay away from this place, do not waste any of your money.

Cute place for budget travellers
At first i wasn't really sure about this place. The rooms are small bamboo huts with a little veranda with a hammock. The bed takes up most of the interior space. However, after the first night, i started to fall in love with the charming gardens full of orchids and edible plants, and the lovely owners and their family. It's a simple place, not very luxurious, but completely charming. The price is very competitive for the area, possibly the cheapest you can find in Klong Dao directly on the beach. It was a restaurant first, and they only opened the bungalows in late 2015. The restaurant is well-known, of excellent quality, and features fresh herbs from the onsite garden. Give Rann's a chance if you're looking for a quaint place on a budget and you don't need much in the way of luxury.
