About Sanctuary Lanta
Sanctuary Lanta is a resort located in Sala Dan, the main town on Koh Lanta. From here, guests can easily reach the island's beaches, local restaurants, and ferry connections to the mainland and neighboring islands. Situated in one of the most relaxed areas of Krabi province, it's ideal for travelers seeking tranquility and wishing to embrace Koh Lanta's laid-back pace.
Guests can expect an ambiance that reflects the island's natural character. Koh Lanta offers long sandy beaches, clear water, and a less touristy atmosphere than the busier Thai islands of Koh Samui or Koh Phi Phi. Its location in Sala Dan provides convenient access to local amenities while offering the peace and seclusion that many visitors seek.

Tips for visiting hotels and resorts
Compare the rates of online travel agencies and direct providers.
After finding a deal on Agoda or Booking.com, you should always check the hotel's own website as well. Many Thai hotels offer a best price guarantee or extras like free breakfast when booking directly.
Location is more important than the stars
A well-located 3-star hotel is often better than a remote 5-star resort. In Bangkok, proximity to a BTS or MRT station saves hours; on islands, proximity to the desired beach is crucial.
