Lamai Wanta
Outstanding value
What we say: 
For the money, Lamai Wanta represents excellent value for money in a very central location on Lamai Beach. If you are willing to forego the beach view, the standard rooms, which are in a trio of two story buildings towards the rear of the resort are outstanding value, although they do get some noise from the nearby bars. The bungalows are well-sized and come either freestanding or duplex. While very clean, they feel a bit sparse with little in the way of furnishings other than a bed and a desk. Rooms also come with wifi access, though best reception is often outside the room. Lamai Wanta has recently added a beachside restaurant to the grounds and it's an outstanding addition to the pretty lame selection of Lamai eateries. The highlight here remains the horizon pool, which sits in front of the two beachfront bungalows. Highly recommended.

Budget Luxury
We stayed here based on a recommendation on the messageboard by Somtam2000. Great call. Thanks! The room, while somewhat plain, was large and comfortable, and had great amenities like cable TV, air-con, fridge, a room safe, beach towels, a spacious balcony (or veranda), and a huge hot water shower with great water pressure. The 1200 baht was more than we'd normally pay (in fact, it is the most we've paid on our entire trip), but you aren't really paying for the room as much as for the location and the lovely grounds. We liked how the hotel is near everything, but even more the pool with lounge chairs and umbrellas right on the beach. This place definitely had that resort feel, but at a fraction of the cost. They also allow late check out of up until 7 pm for half the overnight room rate, which was perfect for us to catch that late night discounted flight back to BKK. Book ahead if you think this hotel might appeal to you, since they are usually full up every night.

Excellent hotel
This was a wonderful hotel - for the equivalent of US$23 a night we got the equivalent of a four star hotel in the states. No view (unless you want to pay extra for a beach bungalow) but the beach has excellent swimming and the pool is small but clean and inviting.
