Phra Ae is a village area on Koh Lanta, the long island in the Andaman Sea off the Krabi coast. It is a low-key part of the island, where village life and the beach sit close together. Long Beach is the main stretch of sand here, and nearby are a dive centre, a Muay Thai ring and a fitness gym.

Long Beach is a short walk from the hostel, and the Monday Market, about 1.2 km away, is a local market for food and everyday shopping. Lanta Old Town, 11.4 km away, is a historic town with a slower pace, and Mu Ko Lanta National Park lies 17.6 km away, with forest trails and marine waters. Koh Lanta has no bridge, so the last leg of the journey is by ferry from the Krabi mainland, and Krabi International Airport is 54 km from the hostel.

A day can start with a swim at Long Beach and continue with a visit to Lanta Old Town or a walk on the national park trails. The hostel offers diving, fishing and snorkelling, and the Palm Beach Divers Center is close by for diving trips. Back at the hostel, the terrace and the shared dining area give guests a place to rest between outings.
