Location & what to see
Pra Ae Beach sits on Koh Lanta, a long island in Krabi Province that is reached by boat from the mainland. The area has a small village, a few local shops and a medical clinic within a few hundred metres, and Long Beach, Koh Lanta is 50 m from the hotel. The sand is the main draw here, and the nearby clinic and minimart make a longer stay practical. It suits guests who want to stay close to the sand while keeping village life nearby.
Klong Dao Beach is 2.8 km away and Kantiang Bay is 5 km away, two more stretches of coast to explore along the island. All of them are on Koh Lanta itself, so every outing stays within the island and its own coastline. Khao Mai Kaew Cave, 8.4 km away, is one of the island's natural sights, and Lanta Old Town, a historic settlement on the island, is also worth a visit.
Mu Ko Lanta National Park is 16.1 km away, and a day trip there makes a full day out on the island. Boat trips to nearby islands depend on the sea, which can be rougher during the rainy season, so the island's pace of life shapes how much you can plan in advance.
What guests say
Travellers rate the location (9.3) most highly, followed by the service (8.7), and the value for money (8.3) also scores well.
