A great place to spend time in!  Whilst I dident stay for the night, I visited almost daily after coming across the bungalow during one of my walks. Its very picturesque, and offers perfect views of the sunset and beach. The massage offered was excellent value for money as well as skilfully given. I really enjoyed spending my evenings here, and next time I´ll definitely book a room from this place! 

A hidden gem in Koh Lanta

Really nice good sized bungalows that takes up to three persons. The beds are good and the pillows are not too hard.

Nice pool area with sun beds facing the ocean and next to the restaurant and bar. There is another pool area in the back as well, but we haven’t been there.

There are a lot of rocks in the ocean just in front of the hotel. This makes it impossible to swim at low tide but at high tide it’s ok and on the positive note the rocks provide hideouts for small fish so there’s a lot to see with snorkel and mask. 

The restaurant serves nice food both local and international and the waiters are sweet and helpful. 

The Liberty 420 bar does all sorts of cocktails and beers and the bartender is great. 

And now the negatives:
They have this really weird system for getting your room cleaned. They only do it every other day and you have to leave your key at a basket in the reception to indicate you want it done. The reception doesn’t open until 8 am so if you’re going on an early trip it’s not possible to leave your key. Personally I don’t care about having my sheets and towels changed every other day but I certainly care about having my toilet basket emptied EVERY day. We’re here now on day four and I had to change it myself yesterday since no one’s been inside our room besides ourselves since we checked in.

Mixed feelings

a nice resort with nice bungalows right on the beach.  I have known this facility for several years and always feel comfortable there.  Pool with waterfall and view of the beach. The 7 11 is right at the entrance to the resort, the food is good.  The associated beach bar Liberty 420 is one of my hotspots on Koh Lanta. The professional cocktails that you can enjoy there are worth mentioning. I like the relaxed atmosphere there at the beginning of the Klong Khong beach and always feel welcome.

Klong Khong New Beach Resort

Beachfront location, lovely staff and a gorgeous restaurant overlooking the beach just an inch away. Two pools, one with an ocean view. Rooms were basic but doesnt take away from fantastic experience. We took some island experiences from here and although there isnt much to do in the immediate vicinity but with an easily cheap haggled ride in a pick up truck there is lots to see and do!

Gorgeous hideaway

Rooms aren't cleaned regularly, only if you ask for it and only every other Day.  7. Toilet paper is refilled only if you ask for it.  8. Shampoo and body gel are never refilled 7. Air condition avaliable only if you pay additional 150 bath/day 8. During our 5 Day stay swimming pool has never been cleaned 9. Service at the reception is rude and impolite 10.

So far The Worst Hotel ive been to while being in Thailand

We will start with the good things, the restaurant and bar staff are a very friendly bunch even if they are not the most efficient, the food can be good but be sure to ask for brown toast.
 Now the not so good, reception very businesslike, in other words inflexible, no credit cards, only cash, where is nearest ATM, five minutes away, can you let the baby and two year old into the room while I walk up to get your money, No , 36 degrees so sit in car with aircon running while I walk as it would take twice as long to drive.
Rooms are basic and need update but adequate if advertised prices are available, but they aren’t, room not cleaned in the three days there.
Reception closes at eight and they tell you bluntly that any problem won’t be attended to until the next day.
Pools are clean but no shade, far too exposed in the day.
Not a great deal of parking unless you are on a scooter.
Drink prices can get a little over the top, iced coffee and such approximately four times street prices, beer only about double and cocktails just the usual overpriced.
Never try to pay at the reception, always book through an agency as they will try for every cent.
Summing up , poor value for money, great view at sunset, little sand but lots of rock, some nice staff, some just businesslike.
This regrettably is my first negative review, sorry but the outcome is could try better.


Mixed feelings 

I previously stayed in December and it was amazing! However came again in low season and as much as i appreciate it would be more quiet, the restaurant/bar was closed, the massage area was a construction site and the pool was disgustingly dirty all green slime in the bottom.
Room was nice though and spacious, clean with nice en-suite.
Great to hire a bike from nearby and explore the island. 
I remember the bar at this hotel to be amazing vibe for the sunset but unfortunately it was also a construction site.
We were told we could use next doors pool and facilities.

Would not advise during low season

My partner and I booked this place in a rush as we were leaving from Krabi to Koh Lanta that morning. We booked New Beach as we had friends who stayed next door at Blue Andaman and liked the location, however Lanta New Beach was cheaper at the time and looked just as good. We ended up loving this accommodation and thought it was a little gem, we stayed for 4 days and could have stayed longer.
Pros:
-great location, hotel is on the beach! 
-2 swimming pools to choose from.
-restaurant and bar attached, serving food and drink all day with a beautiful view of the beach.
- Staff were all very friendly and hospitable. 
- Guy next to the reception who we bought tickets to the ferry from and scooter from was reasonable, friendly and very helpful. 
-Little restaurant called Danny’s 2 minutes away, lovely food and service at a great price! 
- restaurant about 10 minutes away called the 3 sisters, recommend that too. 
-Hire a scooter or hop on a bus and explore the island, Koh Lanta Old Town is quaint.
-great location only about a 15 minute drive from the ferry port at Saladan. 
-Rooms clean and flowers were left on our bed and in the bathroom upon arrival which was a lovely touch.

Overall, great location, great accommodation and recommended by us. 

A little gem in lovely Koh Lanta.

Facilities in the hotel are good; nice swimming pool, steps away from the beach, clean rooms.
The big problems of this place were: the slow internet connection, small variety in the breakfast buffet and a major security problem. As in every hostel I’ve been in Thailand, I left my shoes outside my room. Next morning they were gone and hotel administration team didn’t give any answer or payment to replace them.

Security Issues

It was my wife's 30th birthday and I wanted to give her something special to celebrate the big 3-0. I couldn't be there with them because I live and work in NYC, so I booked this through the Agoda site. For 8 people (my in-laws) 3 adults and 5 children, I was required to book 2 family bungalows with included breakfast, which maximum capacity is stated at 3 adults and 1 child.  Perfect for the in-laws and my wife. They made it mandatory for an extra bed be charged to the rooms at 2000bht/night because they consider children 8 and over as adults. The good part is that they advertise that children 7 and under stay free, which 2 of the children are. Sweet, so I book the venue.  This is where everything goes down hill and is probably the reason why they have a terrible rating everywhere.

- The staff upon arrival treated my wife and family pretty badly, probably because they are Thai and not westerners. They make her pay the bill and additional charges upfront. Right off the start, not good.
- They charged me for extra beds they did NOT deliver (2000bht/night).
- Advertised free stays for children 7 and under they didn’t honor. Even though we paid for the breakfast in the morning, they charged us extra (200bht/day) for the children 7 and under, whom they advertised as staying for free. How much do children under 7 eat? We already paid for the breakfast option for the rooms which I thought included everyone that was legal capacity. These were 2 family rooms with 3 adults and 1 child per room. Capacity for these rooms are 3 adults and 2 children according to resort policy.

Don’t stay here if you want a hassle free experience. We stayed 3/4-3/6/19 and booked 2 family bungalows with the breakfast for 3 adults and 5 children.

OH AND THE KICKER is that they would only give us 2 small bottles of water for each room. 4 small bottles of 6bht water for 8 people. They fought my wife for 4 bottles of water! They fought over providing soap for the rooms. That’s unbelievable! We just went to 7-11 to pick up water and soap on our own.

In addition, Agoda removed my review, which I think is very deceptive. They will also be crediting me back the money for the beds. At least I hope they do, but I'll keep everyone updated.

We will never stay at this place again and recommend no one ever book here.
