Great value for money

Such a comfortable stay and great value for money. The bungalow was very nice and tidy and very spacious! The whole resort was designed very well and you could tell a lot of thought and care was put into it. Reception staff will also help you book transfers and they are much cheaper than doing it through apps.

Great place with nice owners

Very sympathetic place. Nice owners. They are French and have the best tips to enjoy the island. We rented motorbikes and they gave good tips where to go. The bungalows are very clean and recently renovated. Very well isolated so no mosquitoes inside. The swimming pool is lovely, just as the garden. The beach is very close by (one or two minutes walk) and it is an especially beautiful stretch. See picture. 7-eleven is just around the corner. Breakfast is good, they bake American pancakes and have croissants. I’m always happy when there’s granola and not just cornflakes. All in all very good value for money and a very pleasant stay.

Me and my partner loved our stay matcha we would come back if we could!!

The room was lovely, spacious and clean. The pool area was super nice and it felt really like you were in nature but still in a good location, near to the beach but also near to lots of restaurants and bars.

The best part of the stay was the location, but that area has a huge range of options at a much lower price.

Pleasant place to stay

Well placed with easy access to the beach and main road where there were plenty of places to eat or buy things. The pool was nice when it was too hot for the beach, and the rooms were comfy.

A fantastic place to stay to relax and unwind.

All good. Stayed in March. Set in a lovely garden with pool. Decent size rooms with very soft comfortable beds & pillows. Owners were very friendly and super helpful. It is moments from a gorgeous, white sand, blue sea beach. It is rocky at low tide but don’t let that put you off. Sunsets were stunning. A quieter part of the island but some great restaurants/bars/massage/convenience stores close by.

Relaxing, comfortable stay

Very chilled place to relax. Good value for money and comfortable rooms. A central location from which to explore the island and beaches. No frills, but provides all you need and the managers are helpful in helping to organise transport, tours etc.

Important message to the local community & customers......

We feel it is our responsibility to speak up about recent behaviors that have caused deep concern and distress within the Koh Lanta community. This island is more than just a destination — it is a home, a place built on respect, kindness, and harmony between cultures, families, and traditions. Recently, situations have arisen that go against these core values, involving conflicts, aggressive attitudes, and a lack of respect toward the local way of life. We stand firmly for peace, respect, and the protection of our community — especially families and children who deserve to feel safe in their own environment. We kindly ask everyone to remain aware, act with integrity, and report any inappropriate or harmful behavior to the appropriate authorities. Together, let’s protect what makes Koh Lanta truly special: its people, its culture, and its spirit of living together in peace.

The location is fantastic and the gardens are well maintained

We love everything about Matcha Lanta. The location, the style of bungalows, the facilities, the staff, the owners. We extended our stay twice and didn't want to leave. We already can't wait to visit again!!

We stayed at MATCHA LANTA and it was absolutely perfect for couples, families, and travelers just passing through. The rooms have everything you need for a comfortable stay. The owners are incredibly warm and the entire property is simply a dream. Everything is conveniently located nearby, and whenever there was a small issue or question, the family took care of it immediately. We honestly didn’t want to leave and fly back home. The rooms were very clean, and the staff was always friendly and attentive. The owners help organize tours and taxis and are immediately there for any request you might have. We truly enjoyed our stay and are certain that we will return to this wonderful place very soon. For anyone who doesn’t yet know where to stay in Koh Lanta, we can highly recommend this accommodation from the bottom of our hearts. See you soon and thank you for this beautiful and unforgettable stay!

Ideal

Really enjoyed our stay in the Matcha Lanta Resort. The owners were very friendly and helpful, from organising transport to hiring scooters, the rooms were super clean and the balcony was the ideal spot to have a beer and cool down after a day by the beach. This place should be a 4 star stay and we expect it will be soon!
