Reviews for Anantara Layan Phuket Resort
Review 1:The Location is a drive from the towns, but we had a rental car so no problem for us.
Review 2:Private Beach, Infinity Pool, Service, Restaurants, Attention to detail, Breakfast buffet, Hidden Paradise. Overall Amazing Hotel and would go back again!
Review 3:nothing
Review 4:every thing very nice... from the staff to cleanliness of the villa and rooms to great breakfast.... WiFi was very good, very romantic place specially for honeymooners, check in check out very fast you don't have to wait long time, The reception was elegant. and peaceful place.
Review 5:In general everything, but the food and the breakfast was fantastic. the room is great and really good and welcoming staff. I reccomend this hotel if you need to relax. There is no bad experiance but if you need to go to Patong it far a bit. I've stayed in this hotel for 2 night out of 6 nights i spent in Phuket...and I really wished to spend the 6 night there!
Review 6:1. Location of the resort was a bit remote so you'd need to organise proper excursions & transport if you wish to explore other parts of Phuket. 2.The private beach area was small - the shore area was more of a small bay, so don't expect eaves of a typical main seashore). 3. At night, the lighting along walkways to the villas and rooms can be quite sparse and dim so you need to watch where you're going.
Review 7:1. The staff were incredibly attentive and delivered a stellar service, and they genuinely wanted to converse with you to find out how much more they were able to further improve your stay 2. The spa was huge with a very good range of massages and treatments to choose from, and we never felt rushed even after our appointments ended as there was a relaxation room with refreshments to prolong your spa experience for a while longer. 3. There was stable and strong WiFi throughout the resort - something that many travellers of today will appreciate
Review 8:The hideaway location has one disadvantage: visiting any other area in Phuket will make you spend lot of money in taxi: mínimum 800 bath.
Review 9:Hideaway location in a lonely beautiful beach; excellent service and amazing facilities. Breakfast is simply the best I have ever tried.
Review 10:The hotel is so far from the city and Patong beach, no shuttle service.
Review 11:Great hotel, the staff are so helpful, the beach is good for swimming until the evening, two big swimming pools and two restaurants. The hotel is amazing if you want to relax
Review 12:A bit Expensive... Limited Food Choice.. far away from restaurant and outside world..
Review 13:Loved the hotel overall... loved the private swimming pool and beach activities.. It is A great place for relaxation.. if u don't wanna go out of the hotel much..
Review 14:- We booked the Beach Dinner - it was AWESOME! - The staff were great and very helpful - the spa was very relaxing - Food at the pool restaurant was very tasty - WiFi was very fast
Review 15:Few options for kids entertainment would be ideal. May be an outdoor play area.
Review 16:Ideal Location. Great Food options especially breakfast. Relaxing experience.
Review 17:A bit further from town and taxis cost a shocking packet!
Review 18:Very friendly and helpful and committed! Our 'host' - a young member of staff 'Mimp' was not just helpful but went An extra mile by looking after my elderly parents while my husband and I were away on a day trip .
Review 19:There is really nothing that comes to my mind.
Review 20:It was our 9th stay at an Anantara hotel and there is a reason why we keep going back to the Anantara hotel, we never were dissappointed. The staff just knows how to be professional and how to provide a great service. The breakfast is awesome, again the staff is great and very attentive. The beach is very nice especially compared with all the other with sun umbrella packed beaches all over Phuket. We loved the location since its quite and a bit remote which was at least for us a good thing. We rented a scooter so we were flexible and dont had to take the taxi every time we went to town.
Review 21:We were travelling with our 9 month old son with a baby stroller and this place is not very fit to use a stroller there.
Review 22:Breakfasts were absolutely a chef-d'oeuvre . Thanks to Chief Umberto for this masterpiece! Everything was superb -- presentation, atmposhpere, the music and the FOOD.
Review 23:Our overall stay was great except for the lady sitting at the Spa reception. We were there for 2 days only so can understand spa bookings were not available at the times we would have wanted. She told us about two slots that were available and upon confirming to her on our chosen slot, she flatly denied there was no spot available. We asked her why she told us in the first place that a slot was available to which she claimed she never said so. Extremely unhelpful and rude. Wish i could have taken down her name.
Review 24:The lady who checked us in was very helpful and guided us on tours and what to see. Juge variety at breakfact. Good for Muslims if they are looking for Halal options. The room was good size. Gives you privacy for the attached pool. Location was a bit far and secluded from the city but we can over look that considering it was a great hotel.
Review 25:location is far from markets or city. no chance for having meal outside the resort. food at the resort is very expensive.
Review 26:pool inside the villa and bath tap.
Review 27:Expensive resort restaurants with 17% Added "service fees" . Road leading to resort so so
Review 28:Excellent included breakfast, superb friendly staff, nice beach
Review 29:The Sala Layan restaurant didn't live up to expections. The meals were tasteless and not worth the $.In room dining was excellent and much cheaper.
Review 30:Everything about this resort is 5* Pure luxury. Private pool villa's are amazing. The breakfast is nothing like I ever seen. Much more than a buffet breakfast. Anything you desire and more.
Review 31:small pool, not convenient to downtown ( about 800b for taxi to and back if go to nearest downtown Laguna ), food expensive in hotel but with good view
Review 32:Breakfast, bed, facilities, kindly staff
Review 33:You will need to travel quite a distance to the local markets andshopping areas, the minimum baht to travel back into town was 1000,which is excessive considering the airport isn't that far and youcan get to there from as far as Patong for only 500 baht. Price issignificantly higher from eating to the souvenir shop/ day spa.Don't get me wrong, the quality reflects the price, but when inThailand you want to feel as though your paying Aussie prices abroad!
Review 34:Facilities were new and well maintained Staff where well spoken and hadminimal issues with communicating in English The best buffet breakfastIv ever had Stunning location next to the hotels private beach Luckilyenough we were staying at the hotel during the annual release of theturtles. Which we had fun handling and interacting with.. Very uniqueexperience that topped our Thailand trip off.
Review 35:Being mega picky, the spa treatments are a little pricey
Review 36:This is a wonderful hotel. I can't praise the friendliness of the staff enough, they are all so happy to help and attend to every wish. We were lucky enough to participate in a turtle release too, which really was the icing on the cake
Review 37:They should have more animation and entertainment. after 18pm when the pool closes there's nothing to do. The restaurants and bar are too expensive, you can have the same dishes with nice quality with less half of the price.
Review 38:The staff is very friendly and attentive. Nice pool, good breakfast, the beach is good, but only between 11h-15h, otherwise with the low tide you cant swim. We stay in a villa with a private pool, the space outside was not that big but was good anyway!
Review 39:during chinese new year fully booked and too crowdy
Review 40:pool, free ship transfer to BRT (transport), very nice employees, nice place on the river banks, always feels like comming home
Review 41:Construction noise! Huge construction site around the resort - expectedto end by august 2015; neither the Hotel nore Booking.com told us priorto the reservation about the ongoing major construction activities!
Review 42:Very friendly staff, nice location and excellent faciliites, superbbreakfast!
Review 43:Lack the final touch Saw a couple that came to book a room and were ignored and had to leave
Review 44:Can expect more from the category they are placed in. Little remote for patong and action So need to spend an hour traveling.
Review 45:Poor lighting on steps to room.
Review 46:Location excellent but isolated. suited us but if you want more entertainment then this is not for you. We had a fabulous sea view suite with stunning views. Resort was total relaxation and staff very friendly and professional.We were celebrating our wedding anniversary and had such a wonderful time we decided to return next year ! One word to describe the resort....Fabulous!
Review 47:The sea in front of the resort is relatively shallow in high tide and minimal in low tide. It's probably a few hundred meters to get to swim-able water, which I unfortunately couldn't make it to, despite trying (rain came so I had to head back in).
Review 48:Beautiful surroundings, well maintained gardens, helpful and attentive staff. Beach is large, clean and seems to be separated from any other resort, so it was quiet and peaceful.
Review 49:Apart from the obvious (a beautiful location & hotel) the staff were amazing! Anticipating our needs before we asked! Extremely friendly & professional! Home away from home & a perfect 5 star experience!
Review 50:Limited choice of restaurants in the resort-only one was available for for most of the week. Cost of wine was very expensive. A little far from amenities outside the resort.
