Klong Dao Beach is a stretch of sand on Koh Lanta, an island in Krabi province in the Andaman Sea, reached by boat from the mainland. The hotel is 430 m from the beach, so the sand is an easy walk away, and the coast around it has a relaxed, unhurried pace that suits a slow beach holiday. The island has no airport, so the journey from the mainland is the first part of any trip.

Kantiang Bay, 700 m away, is a neighbouring bay with its own beach, and Long Beach lies 2 km further along. Lanta Old Town, 13.7 km from the hotel, is the island's historic old town, while Mu Ko Lanta National Park, 20.1 km away, protects part of the island's coast and forest. Both Lanta Old Town and Mu Ko Lanta National Park are on Koh Lanta itself. Sala Dan Pier is the island's ferry terminal, and boats run from the mainland.

A good first day could start on Klong Dao Beach, continue with a walk to Kantiang Bay, and end at Lanta Old Town. For a longer outing, Mu Ko Lanta National Park is the place to see the island's forest and coast, away from the beach strip.
