Dream Team Beach Resort, Koh Lanta Yai, Ao Nui Bay
my second stay at Dream Team, the first in early 2008, and I returned in Nov 2009 based on that experience. On arrival I found many changes, and rather unprepared to be doing full business. As well, they were in the midst of owner vs management/staff issues.... tensions were very evident.
A shame as the Dream Team Resort is a beautiful place on a unique solid rock beach; full of life at low tide and the creator of a beautiful surf that enhances water side meals in the evening high tides. The restaurant staff did their best to serve me well when I dined there; excellent breakfast, the chef is amazing. Hoping that they can resolve the owner related problems soon as I would love to return one day but will test the waters before I commit to a full week or more.
As a side note, Mo Bar just down the beach is a great alternative for evening drinks while watching Lanta s awesome sunsets... and for the diver/snorkelers, do not miss a trip to Koh Ha.
I found Sawedee.com an efficient and user friendly service.... thank you

Nice bungalow s in different sizes.
There were some problem with the hot water in the beginning but they solved it by installing a new machine for us!!!!!
The poolarea was great. our children loved it. The beach is very rocky, you have to go to another beach to swim, the hotel provide a free pick-up transfer to three beaches. I strongly recommend Klong-nin beach.
If you go there you must say hello to Wangchai from me. He will do anything to make your stay pleasent. Wangchai rules!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
No problemo!

Remote location for this hotel, far from everything. No cleaning at all in the room during the 3 nights we stayed there: inacceptable! Diner gala on 31st december cancelled at the last minute without being told anything: our evening was scrwed up. They lost for 2 hours a passport we left to rent a bike. Conclusion: a very bad stay overall.

The hotel is quite simple and some of the staff are quite pleasant. I stayed during peak season (chirtmas holidays) and sometimes the service was a bit slow and lacking. If only there was a sandy beach next the resort, this resot is the ultimate choice in terms of cost versus benefits. There are nearby sandy beaches which is accessible by a rented motorbike.
The staff at sawadee was exceptionally helpful in getting last minute booking for peak season
