Excellent - But expensive

Pros: The Layana is a stunning resort set within paradise. The staff are fantastic and cannot do enough for you, even down to laying the towels on the sunbeds for you. The rooms are comfortable and good sized. The grounds are beautiful, both pools are fantastic and the breakfast is ample and tasty. Everything you would expect from a 5-star resort. The free transfer to/from Krabi airport also an added bonus. Cons: When planning flights note the free transfer only runs at certain times. Our inbound flight landed after the free transfer so we had to pay roughly £40 per person. Our outbound flight meant that to get there in time we had to go much earlier and spent 3 hours waiting in the airport before we could even check in. It's not a huge problem but worth taking this into account when planning. As with any 5-star resort you expect paid services to be more expensive however we found at Layana they were on the much higher end of this. e.g. the cheapest excursion was roughly £50 per person through the layana, the same excursion from a tour operator just outside the resort was £20. On friday they offered 40% discount on the spa treatments, but even after this they were still 200% more expensive then outside of the resort. Food was also incredibly expensive compared to local restaurants just outside. I would def stay there again, but not eat/drink there opting for the variety of cheaper and tasty local restaurants just a short walk away.

We stayed 3 nights at Pimalai and booked 3 nights here but checked out a day early due to weather and boredom. There’s nothing particularly wrong with this resort; the beach is nice, the breakfast is extensive, the villa is quite nice, the staff are reasonably friendly (the pool staff in particular were great). However, if you’re going to Koh Lanta, Pimalai was a step up in just about every way so it’s hard to advise staying at Layana unless you prefer the more lively location.

Amazing and still spellbound!

Layana Resorts is one of the best adults only resort we have been to. One will feel that attention to detail the minute you arrive at the property. Frank is the GM of Layana. He is one of the kindest and respectful. The hotel staff were the same. Everyone took great care of us. Frankly speaking we did not feel like getting out of this resort given this one has all the bells and whistles. We enjoyed the morning brunch and evening dinners. We took advantage of discounted spa for guests. All in all the property is on the beach. Well equipped gym. A great restaurant and couple of pools. Cannot wait to get back to Layana again.

Best hotel on the island

Excellent property and service. We arrived on a stormy day, the sea was really rough. Ko Lanta was the final stop in our 30 day journey through Thailand. Our hopes were high and we were not disappointed even in the rainy season. Franck the manager took care of all our needs including suggesting a private boat ride to the Ko Lanta National Park and it was the highlight of our trip. Room service, the restaurant and the food were excellent. We rented an Ocean Villa. It was spacious and luxurious. This property is the best on the island.

We had a wonderful time at Layana. The transportation from Krabi airport was very much appreciated. It was very hot in Thailand while we were there and the pool was great, we spent hours around it and in it. We rented a scooter to drive around the island, Traffic was limited and we felt safe driving them around the island, Layana recommended the Turtle Beach resort for dinner and it was very good. Our room was very large

Great beach. Hotel is quite small but overall exceed our expectations. It’s pricey but worth it. The room is very comfy and big. We arrived at 1.30pm for check in but the room wasnt ready and will be delayed past the check in time so the staff let us wait by the restaurant and enjoy the complimentary food or drink. Great service.
