Baan Klong Khong is a village on Koh Lanta, the long island in Krabi province in the Andaman Sea. The hotel is close to Khlong Khong Beach, 50 m away, and the village is a base for beach days on the island. Taxis, car hire and shuttle services make it easy to reach the island's bigger stretches of sand, which lie further along the roads. Another beach, Khlong Top Yai Beach, lies just beyond the village, and the Sunset Viewpoint is the closest lookout to the hotel.

Long Beach, Koh Lanta lies 3.9 km away, a longer stretch of sand where you can swim and enjoy the surf. Khao Mai Kaew Cave is 4.8 km away, and Mu Ko Lanta National Park, which covers much of the island's forest and coastline, is further off, with the Khlong Chak Waterfall inside it.

A good day could start at Khlong Khong Beach, continue to Long Beach, and end with a trip to the national park and its waterfall, with tours arranged through the hotel. Krabi International Airport is on the mainland, 60 km away, so the last leg of any trip to Koh Lanta is by boat, and the hotel's own taxi and car hire services can take you on from there.
