The whole island of Koh Lanta is pretty laid back, with a lot of the local Thai people being deeply tanned and both genders sporting the past shoulder length long hair. The area where the hostel is located is only 300 meters from a huge western facing beach, where every night a beautiful sunset lights up the sky. There are about 6 places to eat, with a minimart convenience store, which sells beer at $1 and has tables where people can hang out, drink, and eat from the pad thai guy, who sets up shop around 5 pm, or three amazing street food stands open all day and into the night, run by smiling Thai women who cook different curried meat sauces, served with rice and sold at 50 baht ($1.75).
Here's a short video of some shots I took on a walk to sunset last night:
