Costa Lanta - Adult Only

Costa Lanta Hotel Review I stayed at the Costa Lanta Hotel for two nights, and I must say this was one of the most disappointing hotel experiences I’ve ever had. While the property had potential and clearly had a vision when it was first built, the lack of upkeep and maintenance has turned it into a rundown and unpleasant place to stay. Room and Facilities: The room was essentially a concrete box with no windows, creating a claustrophobic and unwelcoming atmosphere. There was no chair or proper seating inside the room, so I had to sit on the concrete floor once the mosquito net was down—hardly ideal. The hard bed, cheap polyester duvet, flat pillows, and basic bedding added to the discomfort. Additionally, the floor was pure concrete, and no slippers were provided, which felt unhygienic. The bathroom was equally disappointing. There was a persistent damp smell, the wardrobe and fridge was in the bathroom, and the tap and shower head were rusty with visible green limescale and mold. The water pressure was practically non-existent when using hot water, and the drain didn’t work properly. Shower water spread across the bathroom floor due to a poorly installed curtain, leaving the space wet and slippery. Worst of all, insects crawled through the cracked drain grate. I resorted to using bottled water to brush my teeth because of the condition of the bathroom fixtures. Resort Grounds and Amenities: The overall resort felt neglected and abandoned. Still water around the property attracted mosquitoes and other insects, which made spending time outside uncomfortable. The wooden walkways were uneven, with large steps into rooms—not at all friendly for those with mobility issues. At night, the lights around the property were turned off, making it dark, scary, and unsafe to navigate alone. The swimming pool was rusty, and the sunbeds looked old and worn. The supposed massage area was empty except for a moldy daybed, adding to the ghost-town feel of the resort. While the listing advertised activities like horse riding, diving, snorkeling, and massages, none of these were offered. Beach and Location: The beach location was okay, but the water wasn’t clean (not hotel fault), and the hotel entrance was not on the main road, making it impossible to flag taxis. It felt inconvenient, especially since the resort itself had little to offer. Noise and Sleep Quality: Sleep was impossible due to the constant noise of a nearby drum and bass party and barking dogs throughout the night. Combined with the hard bed and lack of comfort, I didn’t get any rest during my stay. Food and Service: Breakfast was underwhelming, with a small, uninspired menu that needed to be ordered from a checklist. There was no coffee machine or proper juice, which felt inadequate for a so-called 4-star resort. The only saving grace was the staff at check-in; she was polite and efficient, always greeting guests warmly. Overall Impression: This resort is a textbook case of style over substance. What might have once been a chic, modern retreat has become a dilapidated and poorly maintained property. Every aspect—from the rooms to the facilities—feels cheap and neglected glamping, making the high price tag unjustifiable. I tried to spend as little time as possible at the room/hotel, opting to visit other beach areas and resorts nearby. It’s a shame because with proper maintenance and attention to detail, Costa Lanta could be a fantastic place to stay. Unfortunately, in its current state, I cannot recommend it to anyone.

We loved our 3 nights at Costa Lanta! Perfect, quiet location at the end of a calm & beautiful beach w/ warm water & lovely sunsets. Amazing pool with beach views & pretty grounds. Our room was minimalist & modern, yet quite small. The Staff is warm & friendly, super helpful, even helping us with ferry/pick-up arrangements. Good food & drinks, plus nice daily breakfast. Wood fired pizza a fun option! Definitely recommend & would return!

all’arrivo non ti viene offerto nulla nemmeno un bicchiere d’acqua. complimenti per la fantasia a colui che ha progettato questo resort : gli interruttori della luce sono posizionati sotto i mobili, in camera a parte le due luci da lettura(ikea)non esistono altre luci, di sera dovevo usare la torcia del mio telefono. Aria condizionata rumorosa, sparata direttamente verso il letto e non è possibile metterla al minimo. Grandi Tende di plastica gialle e macchiate su ambe le vetrate della camera.La camera è tutta in cemento quindi la pulizia è difficile da verificare.Attenzione all’acqua calda che è da ustione. Le passerelle di legno lungo tutto il giardino sono vecchie e mal ridotte La colazione a dir poco ridicola scelta esclusivamente di una opzione, ovviamente solo caffè americano o tè, espresso e cappuccino solo a pagamento ma evitate perché pessimo. Lettini e materassini della spiaggia decisamente da rimodernare. Spiaggia bella acqua discreta , bella la piscina. Ottima la pizza di sera al ristorante sulla spiaggia Per quello che viene offerto il prezzo è decisamente troppo alto. da evitare comunque il personale è molto gentile
