Central and on the beach..
Lovely resort, with bar, pool right on the beach. V central to bars and restaurants. Splurge for the bungalows or ask for a room not at the rear... further from the streets late bar noise. Lovely breakfast and lunches. V reasonable prices for all food and bar too.

Great breakfast! Excellent service, the lady at the reception area scheduled transportation from the Hotel to our next place (another island/hotel). Our room/cabin was very quiet and super close to the pool and beach. They cleaned the room daily and always left water bottles for us. They had plenty of chaise longues and towels in the pool/beach area. Definitely will be back.

Loving Lamai
This is our second time in the last three years to stay at Lamai Wanta. We loved the pool, excellent access to the beach and the wonderful buffet brunch. The staff are very helpful and friendly. The front desk staff are very accommodating and efficient. The rooms are clean and very comfortable. Besides being right on the beach, the resort is just one block off of the Lamai Beach Road for easy access to shopping, restaurants and convenience stores. Our time there was very relaxing. The downside is the European tourist habit of smoking. There are a lot of them and they are not very considerate and of course the Thai people are very polite and accommodating. I did not enjoy my patio much because of the neighbours smoking. It's great that there is a lot to do in Lamai. We would definitely go back and we recommend this resort. Great value for the price.

This resort is on a very rough part of the Gulf. The beautiful pool provided an alternative to swimming in the Gulf. The resort is very well managed and operated and the staff went out of their way for the guests. The restaurant and bar service during the day was great. We had lunch there twice and the food was excellent. Happy hour is something this resort should consider as the price of drinks are a little on the high side.

We stayed at the Lamai Wanta Beach Resort for 8 nights & did not want to leave. The attractive grounds are a well designed cluster of low rise (2 & 3 storey) buildings & a number of bungalows between the beach & the low rise buildings. We loved the elephant towel creations that greeted our arrival! The lovely beach is a minute’s walk from the room. The water is wonderful for swimming. You do not have to walk for long to get to deeper water. The beach is long & scalloped, but as the sand is grainy, the walking is aerobic! Fronting the property is both the restaurant & the infinity pool. We had all our breakfasts & a number of other meals in the restaurant & enjoyed every one. The coffee machine, with fresh beans, dispensing lattes & cappuccinos was much appreciated. There are over 40 loungers in good condition! The pool was very clean. There was some shade, under a huge malabar tree & a number of attractive beach umbrellas. The staff were friendly & helpful. The resort was well maintained & pretty.
Our room was well cleaned daily. Our room was nice, with a fair sized desk & adequate storage room. There were coffee making supplies in our room, as well as access to a coffee machine in the reception room/library. The balcony with a drying clothes rack was a good size & felt private. I didn’t need to use mosquito repellent & got only 1 bite during our whole stay! The only downside to our stay was that the excellent wifi had to be continually signed in. We want to return here!!

Initially there was no transparency, on the Expedia page, about the fact that Lamai Wanta was renovating their pool even though it is the draw card photo on the Expedia page. We would NEVER have booked if this fact hadn't been so ambiguously hidden. Upon our 10pm arrival, not only would they not refund our pre-booked 2nd night on our request but wouldn't budge with any customer-service spirit of compensatory offers, it was a case of passing the buck to the executive decision makers of old-school business principles, at our expense.

This property is on the beach and close to the nicest restaurants in Lamai. Very convenient location. The breakfast is sufficient and fresh . one of the few properties to have jellyfish protection on the beach
the bedclothes were not the cleanest on some days and the pool is nothing special

Lamai Wanta may be the best value for money hotel in Lamai. For the price, it’s clean, has nice rooms facing a well maintained jungle like garden area with plenty of shade, and the food is.good, with decent breakfast buffet. The pool is inviting and the
location good for accessing the “main drag” in Lamai yet the resort itself is quiet. Would come back if in Lamai.
