The restaurant and the bar are the main places for food and drink on site, and the shuttle service and car hire give guests ways to get around the island.

La Laanta Hideaway Resort sits in Ba Kantiang Bay on Koh Lanta, an island in Krabi province on Thailand's Andaman coast. The island is reached by boat, and the bay suits guests who want beach time, forest walks and a slower pace than the mainland cities. Koh Lanta combines beaches with national park land and waterfalls, several of them within a short drive of one another, so a stay here can mix sea days with inland walks.

Bamboo Beach (Had Mai Phai) is 50 m from the resort and is the nearest beach. Khlong Chak Waterfall, 1.5 km away, is a short ride from the resort, and Mu Ko Lanta National Park, 1.6 km away, covers forest and coastline on the island. Lanta Old Town, 5.7 km away, is the island's historic settlement.

A day could start with a swim at Bamboo Beach, then a walk into Mu Ko Lanta National Park and a stop at the waterfall, before an afternoon in Lanta Old Town. Trips to the mainland cross the water by ferry or speedboat, so the sea is part of any longer journey. After dinner at the restaurant, the hot tub and the library suit a quiet end to the day.
