Central Thailand Pet-friendly Vacations

Our stay at Ammata Lanta wasn’t planned. We were caught in the Middle East airspace closures and ended up in Bangkok trying to get back to the U.S. With 36 hours between flights, we didn’t want to sit in the airport, so I searched for something unique near the airport instead of the Marriott. Ammata Lanta had solid reviews, interesting photos, and a fair price, so I booked two of the lowest priced rooms and hoped for the best. Our flight arrived at 06:40 and we reached the resort around 09:00 after customs. The staff greeted us at the cars (yes, two—we had a lot of luggage) and quickly took us to breakfast before service ended. During check-in they explained our rooms weren’t available due to other stranded travelers and upgraded us. They welcomed us to relax in the lobby, use the pool, or take the shuttle to a nearby mall. After three days of difficult travel leaving the UAE, we chose to simply decompress. At 13:00 they got us into the rooms early. When we walked into the suites, everyone said “WOW.” The beds felt firm at first, but we all slept incredibly well. Each suite had a private plunge pool overlooking a pond where we spent the rest of the day relaxing. The resort sits near the runway, so jets pass overhead often. For us, working in aviation, it was music. The property shows some age but still has a lot of charm. I would absolutely stay here again.

Small room had to ask for clean towels cleanliness in washroom was terrible .I wouldn’t recommend this hotel
