The hotel offers amenities for your comfortable stay and unforgettable experiences

Delicious Meals

During our stay, I was impressed with the restaurant that serves freshly prepared meals. Unlike other hotels where food can get monotonous, the dishes at Lantana were creatively crafted, and even the chef came to check on us! The seafood and pizzas were particularly fantastic, making each meal a delight.

Tranquil Pools

The two pools on the hotel are beautifully maintained and offer a serene atmosphere for relaxation. We preferred the quieter pool closer to our villa block, where we could unwind peacefully without disturbances. It was the perfect spot to cool off and enjoy the sun.

Spacious Villa

The two-bedroom villa we stayed in was impressively spacious. It had multiple balconies with stunning ocean views and a living area that was tastefully furnished. The well-stocked kitchen made it easy to cook our own meals, and the daily cleaning service was a nice touch.

My stay at this resort was amazing! The yoga sessions were tailored to everyone's needs, which made it super welcoming, and I had plenty of time to unwind at the beautiful beach. The service from the staff was outstanding, especially from Sharon, who made the check-in process a breeze. However, there were a couple of minor issues with the apartment, like only having one key and some coffee supplies that were past their prime.

I had an incredible time at Lantana Galu Beach, which truly feels like an oasis right by the sea. The rooms are spacious and clean, making it a comfortable getaway. The atmosphere is perfect for relaxing and enjoying yoga retreats, but I did find the dining experience a bit lacking, especially with some food items that didn't meet expectations. Overall, the hotel is a beautiful spot with friendly service, but the restaurant could definitely use some improvement.
