Avani+ Koh Lanta Krabi Resort

8/10 Good
"Nice hotel overall. Sea view room and balcony was very nice. Buggy’s required to get around the resort but they are prompt and easy to call for. The restaurants are nothing exciting and very over priced. The Rock restaurant view for sunset is lovely. Breakfast buffet included with room was better than dinner. Beach is beautiful but not able to swim or enjoy due to large waves, tons of rocks and small sand area. If you’re a beach person this resort is not for you."
