If you like mexican food, this is the place to go on Ko Lanta. I am not a mexican food lover, so i did order something else, which was also very good. Great place near the beach with excellent service.

We ate a couple of times here. The food was ok - the chicken penang was the best dish we had but was not nearly spicy enough. If you have come from Europe and want to pay European prices this might not be a bad choice. Service was ok. We got a hamburger that wasn't great. The Tex Mex was... More

We starte looking for accommodation once we arrived and unfortunately Castaway was full. We dd however hang out here for lunch and drinks a couple of times. Friendly staff, great Mexican food and a spotless resort. If we are ever back in this part of Koh Lanta we would stay here.

Lovely spot to gather to watch the sun sink into the sea. A 120-baht- a-cocktail happy-2-hours and all the free popcorn you can eat easily turns one drink into 2 or 3! The cocktail menu is interesting and exciting... Although the perfect piña coladas stopped me from working my way through the list!

We came here for drinks the first time during Happy Hour and I had the best Pina Colada of the entire trip. We went back for the Tex Mex dinner another day and it was pretty good. A little on the pricey side, but a nice atmosphere right on the beach.

I liked that the staff (at the bar) are always on the ball and smiling even after a long day. They all looked relatively young but very attentive when it comes to orders. For food, the range is on the higher end. But I've tried the calamari and thought it was not bad! However the service at the restaurant did... More

Beachcomber has a great menu to choose from. They serv both thai food and tex-mex. Nice atmosphere. Very good cocktails at Madbull beach bar down by the beach. Perfect place to watch the sunset.

Normally when staying at a resort we like to get as far away as possible from the resort for meals. The Beachcomber at Lanta Castaway changed our opinion. It was so convenient, and more than that, very good. We were amazed by the variety of menu choices. Thai, American, and even TexMex, what more can you ask for?? The restaurant... More

Just wanted to say, whilst we had excellent evening meal here one evening and watched a fab sunset.... I can't say I regret not staying here :-(. Whilst the bungalows looked lovely and the location wise in relation to 7/11 and lots or bars and restaurants on the main road was excellent. Beach wise it wasn't very nice, there were... More

I didn't stay are the resort itself although it was on a shortlist of places for me to look at when I was nosing around for a room. My partner and I ate there for dinner after walking down the length of the beach. Attractive surrounding and polite staff who were very prompt in serving us. I had a western... More
