I visited Layana Resort and Spa in May which is considered low season. I thought I got a good deal on the holiday and was looking forward to visiting Thailand for the first time and stay at this #1 ranked hotel in the country. My expectations were quite high after reading all the fantastic reviews on Trip Advisor, however, in... More

I have travelled to many hotels but never have I felt so compelled to write a review until reading Hannah H's ridiculous take on the Layana. The Layana is a beautiful hotel with staff so attentive and considerate you end up leaving with a feeling that you are leaving your friends behind. If you are upset that their level of... More

I have read the latest reviews of Layana and can only say that Miss H and her Mother need to get a life. It was our 1st time at Layana, and from arrival to departure the management and staff could not do enough for you. The different languages spoken by the staff is a credit to the management ensuring all... More

I feel I must defend Layana against Hannah H's absurd review. We were there at the same time as her and her mother and they are the type of UK tourist that give the brits a bad name. They complained about everything. Even down to getting sun burnt because no-one told then Thailand was hot. Maybe they thought they were... More

This was our first time in the Layana Resort & Spa and it was such a nice experience. And yes, we will be back! You can believe all the good comments on tripadvisor and simply book it! It is easy to see why it works so well. The management around Stephan and Kanan take care of every single part in... More

We have stayed at Layana on two occasions, each time a week. In Dec 2009 we tried a week split between a 'Garden Pavilion Room' for 3 nights, followed by 4 nights in the 'Beach Suite'. In October 2011 we made a second trip for my birthday and stayed the full 7 nights in the 'Ocean Deluxe Suite'. All rooms... More

Very high quality resort. Relaxed atmosphere, friendly and professional staff, worth the extra cost. The grounds are beautiful and the beach is fantastic. I would tell anyone visiting Koh Lanta to stay at Layana if they want a quiet and peaceful holiday.

We stayed here in May and loved it. The resort is amazing with great size rooms. The service we recieved here is the best I have ever experienced, the staff are extremly well trained and it shows. They have pool staff that lay your towel out for you and leave a fresh glass of water by your sun bed. Wherever... More

I’ve decided to write this review because I feel I have been badly misled by all the reviews on Trip Advisor as I ended up having a completely different holiday to what I had expected. I am totally puzzled that this hotel is so highly rated by previous guests. One thing I have certainly learnt from this experience is not... More
