Cicada Lanta Resort

If you’re after a different kind of stay and enjoy glamping, this place could be just right. I didn’t enjoy it, though. The hut felt dark and stuffy, and I found two cockroaches on the first day. At night it sounded as if they were all over the room, but thankfully that was just noise from outside. There were lots of mosquitoes outdoors, so I couldn’t sit outside without getting bitten. Motorbikes were also very noisy on the first night, going until 3am. There’s no pool, but a beach is a five minute walk away, with several restaurants and massage parlours nearby. The restaurant itself was good and made lovely pizzas. There’s a 7/11 at the top of the road, and Walking Street is a 20 minute walk or two minutes by tuk-tuk. I wouldn’t return.

The small local bungalows were interesting to stay in, and the beach is only about 3-5 minutes away. There’s a restaurant and a 🎱 table too, and you can take a towel with you to the beach.

The food was so good, clean and yummy, and the coffee was really nice. I think he brought us too much food! Good staff and a good place. I love it here and think we’ll come again.

This was my second stay, and I’m still impressed. It’s peaceful, very clean, and a great place to relax away from work. The bed is comfy, and I slept well and felt rested every night. Staff are friendly and very helpful. The location is handy, near a 7-11, good restaurants, a pharmacy, motorcycle rental, and the beach. They have their own restaurant, and the food is delicious. One extra thing: if there’s a medical issue or emergency, there’s a phone number on the fridge to reach a real person who can help and coordinate with a nearby clinic. I’m sure I’ll stay again.
