- Anantara layan Phuket Resort

Set in the northern part of Phuket, this holiday resort places its guests at just a 30-minute drive from Phuket town and the world famous Patong beach. The elegant property sits a 2-minute walk from the sandy Layan Beach and offers elegant villas and rooms that feature spacious balconies with sea views. The beautifully-appointed units also come with spacious beds, flat-screen TVs and generous seating areas, some even open to private pools. Guests of the hotel who require some “me” time can head to the excellent spa and treat themselves to a massage or any of the other rejuvenating beauty treatments. Those most active guests can use the fitness centre or opt for any of the outdoor activities such as Windsurfing, Diving, Canoeing or snorkelling. Bike rentals are available for those who want to enjoy a leisurely ride at dawn. The in-house restaurant serves delicious Thai and international dishes (HBD)
Due to the surrounding area and the number of steps around the hotel, it may not be suitable for those with mobility difficulties.
We spent 4 days at Layan to unwind. Excellent resort experience. Tranquil environment, customer friendly staff and service. Make sure you visit AGE restaurant, be there between 6-6:30pm to watch the sunset view over the beach (low tide), it’s absolutely gorgeous. Shout out to Jinny, Fah, Nessa at Beach House and Dao at the Spa. Highly recommend if you want to rejuvenate and restore wellness.
I spent 5 days at the Anantara Layan resort on my solo wellness trip before I commence my next role.
Turned out to be a great decision and I was contemplating if to extend by 1-2 days by the second day.
The entire experience was holistic, fun, and energizing. The management and the staff at the resort are warm & friendly. They don't just respond to your needs promptly; the crew takes the additional step to anticipate your needs in advance.
New, spacious, clean facilities. Many fun lessons like Reformer Pilates, Yoga, Gyrokinesis. Great restaurants at the resort with broad range and quality food.
Layan Life facilities and activities were enriching. Fantastic Gym and really enjoyed Sauna, Hot & Cold soak.

We had such a lovely experience at Breeze! The food was great and the atmosphere was really nice. A special thank you to Baifern for being so friendly, kind, and attentive throughout our visit. Also, thank you to Givsseppe, the restaurant manager, for making sure everything was perfect. Both of them made us feel very welcome and truly made our experience even better. We really enjoyed our time at Breeze and would definitely come back!
Exceptional in Every Way – A Truly Memorable Stay
From the very first touchpoint, Anantara Layan exceeded expectations. The airport greeting and limousine transfer were seamless, followed by a smooth and professional arrival with check-in handled privately in our villa. But what impressed me most throughout the stay was the genuine warmth and attentiveness of every member of the team.
We stayed in a beautifully appointed, freshly renovated pool villa, conveniently located close to the beach and all the main amenities. Everything was extremely comfortable, spotlessly clean and thoughtfully considered. The welcome amenities were also beyond impressive and immediately set the tone for the stay.
The F&B experience deserves special mention. Breakfast, lunch and dinner consistently exceeded expectations — excellent quality, variety and service throughout. There really is very little reason to leave the resort when the food and beverage offering is this good.
For anyone interested in wellness, Layan Life by Anantara is simply amazing. The gym has state-of-the-art Technogym equipment, complemented by wonderful onsen and hydrotherapy facilities, an extensive range of treatments and wellness programmes, and numerous classes covering everything from active fitness to mindfulness and relaxation.
Above all, what makes Anantara Layan truly special is its people. The service is polished and professional, but at the same time incredibly warm and genuine. Staff anticipate what you need without being intrusive, and there is a real sense of generosity and pride in the hospitality.
A very special congratulations and heartfelt thank you to Khun Fred, Tomo San and the entire Anantara Layan team for making our stay so relaxing and memorable.
Beautiful surroundings, exceptional facilities, excellent dining and, most importantly, genuinely wonderful people.
A truly outstanding resort and one I would return to without hesitation. Highly recommended.
