Location and Neighborhood
Access to Koh Lanta
Koh Lanta - a hidden paradise of Thailand
Koh Lanta is located in the Andaman Sea off the west coast of southern Thailand, between Koh Phi Phi (well known from the movie “The Beach”) and the mainland. It is approximately 70 km from Krabi Town, 30 km from Koh Phi Phi and 80 km from Phuket. Koh Lanta consists of two major islands: the larger, more populated Koh Lanta Yai (“Yai” = “large”) and the smaller Koh Lanta Noi (“Noi” = “small”). Koh Lanta Yai is commonly known simply as “Koh Lanta” and is one of the booming popular tourist destinations in Thailand.
Koh Lanta (Yai) is home to 9 fabulous beaches and is plenty with tropical forest, coral reefs and splendid underwater life. Numerous diving spots surrounding the island are considered by many to be some of the best diving sites Thailand has to offer. The majority of the land is covered by well preserved tropical nature, typically rain forest mountains and coconut or rubber tree plantations. Since 1990, the entire island itself belongs to the Marine National Park situated in southern part of Krabi Province. Koh Lanta namely is a hidden tropical paradise where its visitors get fascinated by the stunning true beauty of the unspoiled tropical nature.
Escape-Cabins is located at the northern end of Phra-Ae Beach neighborhood (also known as Long Beach) in Koh Lanta Yai, on the mountain side of the main road where scenery is richer in tropical green with much quieter surroundings than beach-front locations. Phra-Ae Beach, situated in the northern part of the island, is a beautiful stretch of crystal-blue water about 4 km long. The distance between Phra Ae Beach and Escape-Cabins is 7 minutes on foot or 3 minutes by bicycle. This distance is a perfect proximity to the beach while still remaining in a tranquil environment avoiding noises from beach parties and bars at night.
 
We are conveniently located close to Saladan Village, the commercial area of Koh Lanta where banks, travel agencies, shops and restaurants can be found. Saladan, 5 km away from us, is also the arrival point of passenger ferries servicing from/to Krabi, Koh Phi Phi and Phuket.
 
We are also just 1 km away from Phra-Ae Village which is an attractive dining and nightlife area of the island where choices of Thai and international restaurants, exotic beach bars and clubs are located. There also is a western-managed bistro-restaurant next to us serving breakfast all day. A convenience store, restaurants, spa/massage salon, café and travel agency can also be found within 3 minutes on foot.  
 
Being located in Phra-Ae, our guests can benefit from the proximity to the other fabulous beaches the island offers. Klong Dao Beach, one beach north of Phra-Ae, is only a few hundred meters away. Southern beaches such as Klong Khong and Klong Nin can also be accessed easily within 10 minutes by motor bikes.
 
While our location offers all these convenience and accessibility, we are still well maintaining a very private and peaceful setting, with somewhat “isolated” atmosphere. With no hotels or resorts occupying our immediate neighboring lands, the whole facility atmosphere is serene surrounded by tropical forest that is marked by a fine view of mountain. Escape-Cabins is the perfect getaway of serenity for those who prioritize quietness, coziness and privacy.
