Myself and a friend spent 5 nights at the Houben and really loved it. It's a hidden gem and Koh Lanta itself is peaceful and very laid back. We loved the food (I could have cried with joy when I got my first decent cup of coffee in Thailand!) and our room was fabulous. Excellent value, and would recommend to... More

We researched extensively on the hotels in Koh Lanta, and fell in love with the minimalistic architecture of the boutique hotel and mesmerizing views. We were not disappointed when we checked in, and were amazed by the consistency of the beauty of the place with the photographs we’ve seen on the internet. We stayed at one of the suites with...

We stayed here after reading all the reviews and viewing all the pictures. Indeed this is a nice place to stay. Peaceful, quiet and relaxing. Away from the busy lifestyle we've been living in. The room is clean and spacious. I love the huge bed! The private Jacuzzi with extraordinary view. We stayed indoor most of the time as the... More

We stayed there during our honeymoon trip in Asia and we fell in love with this hotel. Everything was excellent, starting from unique design, great and friendly service, clean and spacious rooms, best location in Koh Lanta with extraordinary view, great swimming pool, great breakfast and delicious (although bit pricy) food in the restaurant. Congrats and thanks to Shawna and... More

The best place and service in Koh Lanta! Fantastic view; cliffs and pool in early morning sun and in the blue moment at sunset. Tasteful architecture and design all over. The Houben and their staff makes you to feel pampered. A true hideaway and simply the best place to spend your vacation in Koh Lanta!

In terms of describing this resort there is very little I can add to all the awesome reviews. In terms of my personal experience, wow... Having stayed in pretty amazing places all around the world I must say The Houben is currently right at the top of my list. Lured by their very attractive website and the positive reviews, decided...

The paradise must be like this...the rooms,the view and certainly the"family-like" spirit of the personnel and the management everything breaths hospitality. Even the food is perfect and the prices very acceptable.If you don't go there...you are really missing something.

I stayed at the Houben hotel with my partner for a romantic getaway and it didn't disappoint! The cliff-top view was just amazing, absolutely took your breath away at sunset. While it's not located on the beach like a lot of other hotels in Koh Lanta the beach is just a 5min stroll away and the view is worth it.... More

We spent our first week in Thailand in this hotel in november 2011 and as it turns out it was the best start we could have imagined. The Houben instantly got us from our natural stressed out state to a feeling of complete relaxation. The views are nothing short of stunning with great sunsets while you're lounging around in your...
