Two ways to stay on Koh Lanta
Start with the setting and the room you will actually book. These two properties offer different locations, accommodation categories and guest policies.
Ba Kan Tiang Beach · Rooms, suites & villas
Pimalai Resort & Spa
Pimalai offers rooms, suites and separate villa categories at Ba Kan Tiang Beach. Its Deluxe Room includes a private balcony; compare the exact category if a private pool is important to your stay.
Room details to check
Room location and layout vary across the collection. Check beachside versus hillside accommodation, the number of bedrooms and the selected category’s pool facilities before reserving.
Official Deluxe Room details
Phra-Ae Beach · Adults aged 18 and over
Layana Resort & Spa
Layana welcomes guests aged 18 and over at Phra-Ae Beach. Its accommodation collection includes pavilion rooms, suites and villas. Choose between garden, terrace and villa layouts using the official category details.
Room details to check
The adult age policy applies to the resort. A pavilion room is not automatically a private-pool villa; verify the exact room, pool access and occupancy. The official address is Phra-Ae Beach, not Klong Nin Beach.
Official age policy and locationPlan the details
- Choose the beach location and room layout before comparing offers.
- Use the same dates and guest ages, especially for Layana’s 18-and-over policy.
- Check the total including breakfast, taxes, transfers and any compulsory supplements.
- Confirm arrival transport and connections for your actual travel date; do not assume a fixed transfer time.
- Read the cancellation deadline and payment terms for the selected rate.
Before you book
Is Layana an adults-only resort?
Yes. Layana’s official website welcomes guests aged 18 and over. Check the youngest guest’s age before booking.
Does every room include a private pool?
No such assumption is made here. The official collections distinguish rooms, suites and villa categories. Check pool facilities for the exact category you choose.
Which resort should I choose?
Start with guest eligibility, beach location and room layout, then compare the total booking terms. This guide does not rank properties by guest scores or claim a personal stay.
