About

Welcome to Bra Hostel!

By backpackers, for backpackers.

We’re a small hostel run by a group of friends who came to Koh Lanta, fell in love with the island, and decided to make a place we’d actually want to stay in ourselves.

We’ve been living here and working on Bra Hostel for the past two years, constantly trying to make it a little better — not just a place to sleep, but a place that feels like home.

We like doing things together. We organize beach days, volleyball, island adventures and beach cleanups, and we’re always up for showing people around or grabbing a drink together. If you want to meet people, explore Koh Lanta and actually experience the island, you’ll fit right in.

At the same time, we know that after a long day exploring, sometimes you just want somewhere comfortable to come back to. That’s why all our rooms have private en-suite bathrooms, air conditioning, a fridge and a microwave.

We’re also just a couple of minutes from Saladan, where you’ll find the main night market, restaurants, shops and everything else you might need.

Whether you’re staying for a few nights or deciding to stick around for a few weeks (or longer), we’d love to have you.

Come as a backpacker, leave with a little family;)

10/10 gaff, shoutout to Max the chillest guy ever. They’ve built a really special environment for backpackers. As soon as you arrive you are treated well, and everyone there is social. You do not have to try or go out of your way, it’s a natural cosy place to socialise. The rooms and bathrooms are big and clean + facilities are great. Hostels like these are more and more difficult to find these days, so places like this are super important for backpackers. I will remember this place. Tack guys!

The crew at De Bra have really created their own little slice of paradise. Vibes are perfect, facilities are great, and if you need anything on the island they'll make it happen. It's a special place; I can't recommend it enough.
