The Baan KanTiang See is an upper-middle-range resort with eight free-standing villas with spectacular sea views of Kantiang Bay. The resort is nestled on a sleepy tropical hillside, an eight-minute walk from Kantiang village's fresh seafood restaurants and friendly local bars. Each modern Thai villa has a generous private terrace with sunset views. There's a saltwater infinity pool, outdoor lounge, and landscaped gardens, but the resort lacks an on-site restaurant and bar. Free shuttle services run to select Koh Lanta destinations, and prepared meal and grocery services can be arranged. Travelers looking for an on-site restaurant and a closer beach should compare rates at Phra Nang Lanta boutique resort.
