Guests can enjoy relaxing afternoons on the hammocks located in the garden area or chill around the pool before joining in with our nightly events which are the perfect way to pre drink before experiancing Koh Lanta's incredible night life!

I absolutely loved my stay at Blancos, so much that I ended up extending twice! The location is amazing, just a 2 minute walk from the beach, and pretty much everything you could ask from a hostel. A nice pool, so many hammocks all over the place and a really nice social area with games. The food is also very nice and at a very good price. The staff are all awesome, making such an effort to make everyone feel welcome. Met so many amazing people through the daily evening activities organised through the hostel.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    Lovely hostel. The owners are super lovely and helpful. Helped us book transport, trips, were super chatty with us and even asked around the hostel to see if others wanted to join us to go to the old town festival that was on to make the taxi cheaper! Bathrooms had enough toilets and showers for everyone and the room was clean and comfortable!

    Best hostel I’ve stayed in on my travels so far.Staff are so kind and will go out of their way to help you in any way they can.Breakfast you have the choice of eggs how you would like them,toast,fruit,juice,tea,coffee and muffins etc. Rooms are clean as well as the bathrooms and the beds are comfortable.Only a two minute walk to the beach and lots of nearby restaurants.There is also a separate quiet area for working and a free popcorn machine which is a nice touch. They also rent out scooters for a cheap price.
