Situated in Phra Ae beach and with Long Beach reachable within 400 metres, Happiness Hostel features a shared lounge, non-smoking rooms, free WiFi throughout the property and a bar. The property is set 5.3 km from Saladan School, 5.6 km from Police Station and 12 km from Lanta Old Town. The property is located in the Saladan district.

At the hostel, rooms are fitted with a desk and a terrace with a garden view. The rooms have a safety deposit box. The rooms still held some privacy despite being in a dorm. The area is ideal, stunning beach close by and some lovely cafes / restaurants within walking distance. The best part of my stay was the staff. The owner couldn’t have been nicer and even sorted me out with some last minute transport to Phuket. She is amazing.

Guest rooms in the hostel are fitted with a kettle. The rooms are equipped with air conditioning, a safety deposit box and a TV, and some units at Baan Longhaad have a balcony. All guest rooms at the accommodation come with a seating area. We loved staying here! I would give it 11/10 if I could. The lady who runs it is so kind and friendly. On the first day the hot water heater for the shower broke, and she got it replaced within 2 hours. The service was very good. The room was very clean! Probably one of the cleanest places I stayed during my time backpacking in thailand. It is a 7 minute walk to the beach and there are a ton of well priced restaurants within walking distance. There are also many bike rental places close by so that you can explore the island. This place is such a good price for what you get, it feels like having your own little oasis. She also had beach towels for us to use, and umbrellas for the rain.

Situated in Ko Lanta, 2.3 km from Long Beach, Hub of Joys Hostel features accommodation with free bikes, free private parking, a shared lounge and a restaurant. With a bar, the 2-star hostel has air-conditioned rooms with free WiFi, each with a shared bathroom. The accommodation offers an ATM, a tour desk and currency exchange for guests. We just had an awesome 3-day, 2-night stay at Hub of Joys in Koh Lanta, and wow, the name totally fits the place! We met Jonny, who was super friendly and welcoming. There was also a lovely lady at the reception—think her name was Ra, but I’m not 100% sure. She was an absolute gem, helping us sort out a motorbike rental and giving us tons of great recommendations for exploring the area. The breakfast was fantastic—free and delicious! You get a fruit platter, omelette, and all the bread you could want. But the real star of the show? Their popcorn machine! It’s right there for you to grab a snack whenever you feel like it. They’ve also got a small kitchen where they serve some Thai food. We tried the green curry and pad thai, and both were amazing—and super reasonably priced compared to other spots nearby. The communal area is perfect for chilling and connecting with other travelers, which really adds to the vibe. Honestly, Hub of Joys stole my heart with its unique hospitality. If you’re looking for a laid-back, welcoming spot in Koh Lanta, this is the place to stay. Thanks for the incredible experience—I’ll definitely be back! 🙏❤️
