Location fantastic..loved Relax Bay. There was a nice mix of guests and we really enjoyed the atmosphere.

Location is great with direct access to a nice beach. The pool is clean. The bungalows have a nice porch with a hammock.

The one positive is the restaurants food was pretty decent. Overpriced but tasted good. We liked how the curries had fried chicken in them. The cabanas were nice if you got up early enough to beat the families who put towels to claim them, yet didn’t sit there half the day

Relax bay has an amazing beach with some excellent staff and great bungalows. Each has its own balcony and hammock with most looking out to the ocean. Extremely private and well maintained. It is a great place to get away from the tourists and relax for the week.

An Inside Look at Relax Bay Tropicana

We are not your usual, standard hotel with all amenities. We chose another way. Most rooms do not have TV, fridges, and so on, but all necessities to have a nice relaxed holiday are there. We especially aim to stay away from the mainstream hotel business. But we do have WiFi, massage, good food, yoga, happy staff, and most important, a good humour. We try to avoid: light pollution, stone pollution and last but not least, noise pollution.

Quite pricey for what it was. A shame that the staff were not very friendly, a ‘good morning’ doesn’t go amiss when you come down for breakfast. This rather dampened our stay.
Great location on a lovely beach. Plenty of lovely places to relax on the beach; hammocks, shady raised beds, pool area etc.

It would be lovely if the beach bar stayed open a little later but if you’re out for the evening it doesn’t matter too much - I would also note a taxi is needed to get in and out with ease as quite a Long walk uphill/ steps to the main road!
We visited Koh Lanta 4 years ago and loved this place so came back... it was a struggle to find at first but we remembered the decor and luckily found it! it hasn’t disappointed the food is excellent the rooms are lovely.. beach is quiet and relaxing... I would also recommend a local restaurant called Patty’s Secret Garden for a change of scenery. We originally booked 2 nights but ended up staying an extra 3!

A few insects in the caban but you're in the middle of the forest/nature so I guess it's inevitable.
The hotel is truly amazing, right on one of the nicest beaches of Ko Lanta. We loved our little caban, with the hamac on the balcony and the sea view. As for the restaurant, the food is delicious and the bar also serves really good cocktails. We have had the best time at Relax Bay Hotel (massages on the beach, amazing sunset, turquoise water, snorkeling trip ...), we'll definitely be back next time we're in Ko Lanta !

“A good choice for Koh Lanta”
- • Leisure trip
- • Family with young children
- • Bungalow with Sea View
- • Stayed 5 nights
Most of the staff were friendly and smiley, but one always looked like she would rather be somewhere else, which was a shame, since so much of hospitality is about being welcoming. I would also recommend paying extra for an air-conditioned room, as a ceiling fan isn't enough to cool things down for a good night's sleep.
The bungalows are in a pretty, jungle-like setting down little paths. They're quite spacious and have their own terrace with a hammock and chairs to sit out on, which is a bonus. The food was very good and there were plenty of shaded beds to lie on; plus a bar for refreshments. There's a nice beach and other bars and resorts nearby if you feel like eating or drinking somewhere else for a change. They also offer two free taxi rides a day into town (you need to get your own taxi back, but at 150 baht this is no hardship).

The facility has seen better times. No refeigerator, aircon too loud, old stinky bungalow with holes in the wall and with strange bathroom - while showering the water was going under the toilet , making all bathroom wet and uncomfortable. There was a windwow in the shower where everybody could look from outside. And this was supposed to be a supperior bungalow

Older stinky bungalows with holes in the walls, mosquitoes and small lizards can go easily in. Aircon lound, rusty refrigerator, very old and rusty shower and sink. Expensive food, massage, yoga - about 40-100% more expensive than elsewhere on the beach.
Beach bungalov directly at sea, possible to swim in sea also at low tide, nice sitting possibilities at the beach, pickup at the pier

Absolute perfect location and setting for what we wanted .. quiet relaxing with minimal nightlife. Has so much potential.. fantastic beach.
