About
Relax Beach House
Relax Beach House sits on Long Beach (Ban Par Ae) in Koh Lanta, about a 5-minute walk from Gintare Beach. The guest house keeps things simple: free Wi-Fi in public areas, paid airport shuttle, and 24-hour reception. It's an adults-only property, so no children or pets – just a quiet, laid-back retreat.
The bungalows themselves get consistent praise for being charming, spacious, and clean, each with a private balcony or veranda. With a restaurant, bar, and BBQ facilities on site, plus bike rental and tour assistance, it's set up for independent travellers who want to explore the island at their own pace.

In brief
What works, what to weigh
Strengths
3 reasons to book- Unbeatable beach proximity — Guests consistently mention being just a minute's walk from the sand, with several other beaches reachable on foot. For a beach holiday, you can't get much closer.
- Exceptional host hospitality — The owners are repeatedly described as sweet, attentive, and always ready to help – from booking ferry tickets to delivering answers to your door. This personal touch sets the stay apart.
- Great value for the price — At £44 per night, guests feel they get a lot for their money – a comfortable bungalow, beach access, and helpful hosts without the resort price tag.
Worth weighing
3 to weigh- Basic rooms, low category scores — While the bungalows charm guests, the overall room rating sits at 8.0 and the service rating at 7.8. These are simple, fan-cooled bungalows – don't expect luxury amenities or air conditioning.
- Catégorie 7 rating is very low — One of the rating categories (likely cleanliness or facilities) scores just 2.5, which is a red flag. It's unclear what this refers to, but it's worth checking recent reviews for specifics before booking.
- Adults-only policy may not suit everyone — The property explicitly states 'adults only' – no children or pets allowed. For families or those travelling with furry friends, this won't work.

8.1Verified guest“The host was incredibly friendly and helpful, even sorting ferry tickets and motorbike rentals. The bungalow had a comfy bed with soft pillows and blankets, and the fan worked great. There was a lovely veranda, and the location was spot on – just a minute from the beach, with three more beaches within walking distance and a local grocery store right nearby.”
