We liked the location on a small private beach and being away from the main road. Our cabin was just above the sea and beach and had a beautiful outlook. Bed was very comfortable with good linens. Breakfast was decent with choices of cereal, eggs, some (limited) fruit. We always managed to find a deckchair - it never felt too busy. Only negative was that the bathroom was a bit worn but still functional. Staff were very helpful. Good restaurants in walking distance (we didn’t have meals at the resort). Restaurants we went to were Coco Tango, Shamti Shanti, Dirty Fish. The cabins are up multiple stairs and on a hill - so you need to be mobile to stay here. We would recommend staying here - it was “comfy rustic”.

Absolutely loved this property! It was clean and absolutely beautiful!! The moon bar is the most perfect spot to grab a drink and watch the sunset. The main pool was cold and lovely. I would recommend the beach villas over the pool access suites though, that pool was quite warm. But 10/10 would recommend and stay again

We loved our stay at the Moonlight Bay. The hotel is newly renovated, and the room was beautiful. The whole property was very well kept with nice private beaches and pool area. Fantastic breakfast buffet (the egg station and fresh pancakes were particularly great!) with lots of fresh fruits, juices, good coffee and savory options. Really enjoyed our cocktails at the bar, overlooking the beach and with amazing sunset views. Dinner options were a little pricy compared to local alternatives in walking distance, but the food was still tasty. Fantastic stay, would highly recommend.

Great location and views. Front desk very friendly and helpful. Our room wasn’t the cleanest when we checked in, little bits of rubbish still around the place when we first arrived which was a little disappointing. But minus that the place was fantastic.

Nice modern rooms. Far from walking street but you can take a Tuk Tuk. The hotel is quite and has nice nature. The beach is rocky but you can find a small opening for swimming. The lounge by the ocean is very nice for an evening drink. The pool is decent. You can get massages with a beautiful ocean view.

The place is really great. However I booked this place and paid the premium price because I thought it had a buffet, bars, pool and beach front. I was here in 2019 and it had all of that. Now there is none of that.

This is a very nice hotel with its own access to the beach. The rooms are well designed and spacious, and look out on a beautiful jungle. The area is quiet but has goo range of restaurants within a ten minute walk. The property looks like it has not yet recovered from the pandemic, and parts of it appear abandoned (including the beach access). The staff seem more cost conscious for this reason as well, and the attention to ensuring amenities is not always consistent. But overall these are minor complaints and I highly recommend staying here.

We had a wonderful 5 nights here. We booked the beachfront villas which were well worth the money. The view was incredible, also lovely to have a jacuzzi on your balcony to relax in privacy of your own room, however its a shame its only cold water. Staff were generally always friendly and helpful. My only suggestion would be to have friendlier / staff with better English in the moonlight bar. This is a fantastic space but unfortunately was always quiet and just lacked some enthusiasm to get the guests to drink and attend this area. The area itself is very quiet, a little bit of a walk to some local eats which is fine. Otherwise suggest hiring a scooter during your time to get about easily. Hotel restaurant was fairly well priced for food and drinks and lovely quality. Ocean is lovely to swim in with fairly easy access. the resort pool itself is freezing - no one actually used it except for the random child here and there. All in all would definitely recommend for those wanting to simply relax!

Fabulous stay at Moonlight Exotic Bay

We visited Moonlight resort mid September on our honeymoon and would highly recommend staying here. We extended our stay as we liked the accommodations so much. We have been in Thailand for a month and our dinner at the Moonlight restaurant was the best meal of our entire vacation. I would recommend spending the extra money to get a villa overlooking the ocean. Renting a motor bike from the hotel was super easy and it has been so fun exploring the island.

The atmosphere at the Moonlight resort was great. We enjoyed our stay in the beachfront Villa with soaking tub. Other than that, service was very poor. Avoid eating in the restaurant unless you have at least 2 hours to kill. You may have to wait 30 minutes to receive a drink, menu, the check, etc. I slipped and hit my back getting out of the tub. I called the front desk and they said they would bring me an ice pack. No one ever came. We went into town to buy one at a pharmacy instead. The location is decent between towns and they have a scooter rental right at the front desk. They forgot to charge us for breakfast at checkout AND THEY TRACKED US DOWN THROUGH THE TRANSPORT TO MAKE US PAY FOR THEIR MISTAKE. Beware, the staff will turn off the already inadequate air conditioning when they clean your room. We resorted to hiding the remote to keep our room slightly cool in the 95+ degree weather. We loved Koh Lanta and will hopefully get to return to the island but will not return to this hotel.
