So here it is, the final part of our Thailand trip we made in november 2014. You can see all my previous Thailand posts here. We stayed a total of four days in the Escape Cabins, which was a good hotel for a good price. On one of our lasts days we decided to join a snorkling tour on a longtail boat, which would go to four different islands al located in the south of Lanta. We didn't went to see PhiPhi, reason for this was the negative stories we heard from fellow travelers mainly about the island being overcrowded. Too many tourists and longtail boats and an uncomfortable boatride with a speedboat. Anyway, the little island tour turned out to be very nice eventhough I got seasick (again!). Hope you enjoy the photos!
What, even more Koh Lanta? Yes, I'm not done! Not yet! We did spend a lot of time on this beautiful island. So after this post I have one more for you but for now, Koh Lanta part V. The weather can be quite crazy sometimes, heavy rainshowers can come up very easily but dissapear quickly as well. This day we had a very heavy rainshower, and it was all beautiful when you see a dark sky on one side and you see bright blue colors on the other. Oh well, hope you just enjoy the photos and the outfits! :)
After our three days on Koh Lanta in a very luxurious resort, it was time for a change. It was the start of the high season and not only the island became more busy, the prices went up as well. We had a lot of days left on Lanta and therefor we decided to change hotels. The island is so relaxed, we really enjoyed it! We rented a motorbike for most of the days which was really convenient, because we like to explore things. We drove mostly to the south of Koh Lanta where the beaches are the prettiest and the most relaxed. I hope you enjoy the photos, I have some outfit foto's too :)
Since we stayed for almost a week in Koh Lanta, I have to separate the posts because otherwise the photos will take forever to load. We spend three nights in Twin Lotus Resort, just before the high season kicked in (otherwise we couldn't afford it!). It were the most relaxed three days which I ever had. Since the swimmingpool was so relaxed and the beach was just a footstep away, there was no need to leave the hotel. The only time we did was to get some food. Eventhough the hotel has a really good restaurant, it was really expensive to eat there every night. So we took our motorbike and drove half an hour to the south of the island, where we found Beach House Restaurant. We found this restaurant on tripadvisor and almost drove past this restaurant. It's really simple but so cute and the food is delicious!
After two nights in Aonang it was time to continue traveling to a destination where we would stay for a longer period of time: Koh Lanta. This island, located close to Krabi on the westcoast of Thailand is just a 2 hour boatride away from Aonang, which was also one of the cheapest options. The boatride was pretty relaxed and we enjoyed the magnificent view of the Thai westcoast. Upon arrival, in the small harbor, we noticed the cute little restaurants located at the shore; we already found a place for lunch! We took a tuktuk (they look different in every place you are in Thailand, these we almost all driven by women!) to our hotel, the beautiful Twin Lotus Resort. Let me show you around during our first two days in Koh Lanta!
