I booked this hotel/holiday a bit late in the day and used trip advisor to save time. I soon spotted the 2008 travellers’ choice awards and started looking down the top 100 best luxury hotels. The #1 ranked hotel (in Costa Rica) is about 5 miles from the beach so I started looking at the Layana Resort and Spa which... more

This is a beautiful resort that we just happened by when looking for accommodation during the low season in Koh Lanta, when a lot of hotels are closed.

After spending 3 weeks travelling through China and Thailand we spent 5 nights at the Layana resort to recover. We could not have chosen a better place. Because of a delayed flight and problems with the ferries/tides we did not arrive at the resort until 1.15 a.m. We were taken straight to our room and advised to check in the... more
