I just come back from Lanta Island. I staied at Lanta Palace resort the resort is nice that on the beach and I choose to stay at Beachfront Bungalow and Swimming pool view that just 5 meteres to swimming pool and 15 meters to the beach. I like the sunset time (see my picture). But the beach is not nice compare with Phuket. I visited the Lanta Island during low season that no many tourist there but very quiet and nice for relax.
