Welcome to the Jungle: Your Adventure Awaits at Rim Khao. Where the Island Wild Meets the Ultimate Explorer's Sanctuary.
Put down the map. Your search for a generic beach hotel is officially over. Step through our gates and venture into a living, breathing jungle frontier where towering prehistoric cliffs meet the heart of Koh Lanta. At Rim Khao Jungle Resort, you aren’t just booking a room—you are embarking on a true nature retreat.
Why choose our sanctuary? Most travelers come to Koh Lanta just for the sand, but true adventurers venture into the deep green to find the island's authentic soul. Nestled directly at the base of a majestic mountain cliff, our basecamp offers an immersive experience surrounded by lush gardens and vibrant tropical life.
Meet the Locals: Keep your eyes on the canopy and the tree trunks! This is a true wildlife sanctuary. Charlie the monkey, a cheeky Long-Tailed Macaque and the proud Alpha of his family troop, loves to hang out around the grounds with his crew. You will also see their gentle, spectacled neighbors—the dusky leaf monkeys, frequenting the treeline right outside your private balcony. Look closely at night, and you will spot our friendly geckos and hear the calming, rhythmic chirp of the jungle.
Prehistoric Backdrops: Wake up beneath towering, emerald-green mountain cliffs that feel completely untouched by time, giving you a front-row seat to the raw beauty of Thailand's landscape.
The Jungle Rhythm: Swap city noise for the ancient soundtrack of the wild. Fall asleep to a gentle symphony of cicadas, exotic birds, and tropical night life under a thick canopy of trees.
The Perfect Coordinates: Enjoy the ultimate explorer's paradox. We are tucked deep inside a quiet, hidden garden paradise, yet only a short 10-minute trek away from the local life of Saladan Pier and the soft sands of Klong Dao beach.
It's not just a room; it's an adventure on its own. Whether you are mapping out your next island-hopping voyage over morning coffee or relaxing in our lush gardens, you'll feel the thrilling jungle energy that our guests love.
Living in Harmony: We share this wild sanctuary with the island's authentic residents. To ensure your stay goes smoothly, we ask all guests to follow our eco-conscious nature guide: keep your cabin doors secured from Charlie's sneaky monkey scouts, leave the wildlife wild, and keep your spirit open to the untamed magic of the Thai jungle.
Escape the crowds. Answer the call of the wild. Lock in your stay today and let your jungle adventure begin!
"Wonderful find. I spent hours trying to find rhe right place and I did. Rim Khao is a lovely little group of bungalows that back into the forest, but are conveniently on the main road and just a 10 minute walk from the beach. This is a brilliant place for a really good price. I spent hours watching the monkeys, ants, lizards, frogs, birds and butterflies that were very present. As I had no transport and only a walking budget, was limited where I went. But there was enough. The beach is beautiful for swimming and sunbathing. There is little shade, but if you walk to the end of the beach, theres a lot more shade there. If tou are happy to scramble the rocks, there is plenty of wildlife there too....fish, a billion crabs and brazen seabirds.there are plenty of restaurants, both local and tourist all just a stones throw away and the walking street is as good as any.
The room was very quiet with air con and a fan that were efficient. The hot water was plentiful in the shower and cleaners were operating every day.
Hotel staff were friendly and helpful, and English was really strong which of course is always appreciated , but never expected. The pool is more of a plunge pool, but thats all i personally ever need. You may consider it needs a bit of tlc, but it didnt bother me. The bed was comfortable, the room was quiet, and the road could barely be heard.just remember that the call to prayer can be heard almost everywhere. Oh, and a 7/eleven right next door. Amazing, and i hope to go back."
