“Pure Bliss in Koh Lanta”

Layana Resort and Spa

Jul 13, 2008
3/3 found this review helpful

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. Situated right on the beach with a large pool - the position is perfect. The rooms are spacious and well appointed with large balconies set in park like gardens. The off season rates were very reasonable, including those in the Spa - which again is very good. The staff are great as is the breakfast. The owners live on site and it really shows as we would be hard pressed to find fault with anything. The hotel caters to adults only and is perfect for honeymooners or anyone wanting a relaxing holiday , even in the high season without children screaming and jumping in and out of the pool. Highly recommended and we will be returning again in January 2009

Another part of our 3 stop Thailand visit. We felt it was a very nice and pleasant resort. But it is not 5 star and has 5 star prices.The staff were excellent and friendly but we felt it was too expensive for Thailand

“Outstanding”

Layana Resort and Spa

Jul 9, 2008
2/2 found this review helpful

It is hard to add anything new in a review for this amazing place. Everything from location to staff is just perfect, possibly for the exception of the music in the resturant ;=) They keep up the same level of ambition wether there are sixteen guests (as it was when we arrived) or fully booked. Late depatarture was not a problem, when we arrived to Krabi airport going to BKK one Layana staff turn up out of the blue and assisted us in check-in.

Hope to be back.

“An Excellent Place to Stay”

Layana Resort and Spa

I stayed at Layana for my honeymoon in Nov 2007. The resort is beautiful and the staff are very helpful and friendly. The beach area i very nice as is the pool and outdoor bar area. The food at the restaurant was excellent. The rooms are comfortable and I liked that we had a balcony and a bathroom with both a shower and a tub.

The snorkeling excursion I took was awesome...

Free internet service was a real plus.

The only real negative was the gym, which is kind of small and doesn't offer much equipment or weights...

“the best resort on Koh lanta”

Layana Resort and Spa

Jun 27, 2008
2/2 found this review helpful

Layana has the best overall package on Koh lanta. The reservation was correct. The check in was very quick and we were escorted to the room. The resort has about 11 2 storey bungalows each with 4 rooms. The rooms are great. 5 star quality with TV, DVD, marble bath, great shower with the most powerfull shower head. Didn't like the chairs on the balcony. The pool is great and not busy. The SPA looks amazing and very relaxing. The beach is good but during the low season there are no sun lounges and it is different from the main pictures on their web address. The big led down is the restaurant. It is far too hot and the choice of the food is not great. Prices are reasonable for a 5 star resort. There is a free happy hour between 6-7 with half price of all cocktails.
If you staying at Koh Lanta, Layana is the best choice. Second choise is Langham Place. However Layana is not on the level of The Sarojin in Khao Lak.
