Lanta Roundhouse

Going to Roundhouse is a bit like staying with family. You don't sit down and expect to be served - you approach the hosts of the house, who are very much at ease and enjoying themselves by the bar, and kindly inquire about something to drink or eat. You pick a beautifully relaxed spot in the outdoors seating area, which almost feels like a living room. You enjoy the view of the sea and the sound of the waves gently lapping the shore. The kitchen doesn't open until 15h so if you're expecting something to eat when you venture in around noon (based on the Google pictures), you're in the wrong place. You have a fresh coconut instead, which much to your delight gets served with a metal straw: a first, 3 weeks into your single-use-plastic-loving Thailand round-trip. Then the hostess approaches you. She is making herself a cold platter with hummus and is happy to make you one too, if you feel like it. You say yes and enjoy the healthy lunch you didn't know you needed, including some fresh homemade naan. It comes with a carafe of fresh water and a glass of ice cubes. Halfway through your meal, the host comes to check-in, to see if you're enjoying my plate. It's delicious, you gesture👌🏼 These people clearly care about the environment, and allow people to live life at their own pace and in their own space. They deserve your business. Namaste🙏🏼

One of the best places in earth. Ran by a wonderful couple of Paul and Nadia. Such a chilled vibe. We have come back to lanta every year because of this amazing place. The sunset is the best in Thailand. Can’t wait to get back and visit Paul and Nadia again .

🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 An absolute hidden gem on the island! Lanta Round House has the perfect blend of laid-back beach vibes, ice-cold drinks, and fun games that keep the good times rolling. The view is breathtaking—watching the sunset here feels like a scene from a movie. It’s the kind of place you come to once... and immediately start planning your return. Can’t wait to come back. Highly recommended!

This place is an absolute gem. The owner is incredibly nice and it was an absolute pleasure to talk to him. He's a musician who moved to Koh lanta several years ago, hearing his story was inspiring. The place itself is very chill and the atmosphere is incredible. Music choice is top notch too. Would highly recommend this place to grab a bite and watch the sunset.

One of my favourite places in the world to watch the sunset. The atmosphere is exceedingly chilled, great music choices and the food is incredible a real mixture of cuisines but every item on the menu created to the highest level with care and immense flavour. Paul and Nadia are fabulous hosts, who will welcome you to their small bit of island paradise with open arms.

Hidden gem alert! 💎Cozy guest house + the coolest bar = perfect stay.Great drinks, awesome vibes, and super friendly staff. Already planning my next visit — you need to check this place out! 🍹✨

The place is just horrible. Staff not friendly at all. Old man behind the bar who couldn’t be bothered . We tried to get his attention so that we could order some drinks, but he was “busy” talking with his friend at the bar. We ordered dinner but it took a really long time. We left after waiting for more than almost an hour. When we left the same old man behind the bar got really upset with us. Seemed like he had a few too many drinks himself while working. Will not recommend this place to anyone. There are many better bars and restaurants on the same beach where they do make you feel welcome.

This is a drift wood, arty, clean and super friendly place with really tasty food, awesome location, chill space and great music. Nadia and Paul are so welcoming it's a home from home. If you want to experience Old Koh Lanta then come here. Definitely will be back again. Well worth a visit. We love it.
