Layana Resort & Spa

Elegant, tranquil and positioned on one of Koh Lanta Yai’s finest unspoilt beaches, this resort is the perfect desert island-style retreat. Spend your days lazing on the pristine mile-long beach before heading to the newly renovated Linger Longer Spa. If you like to keep active on holiday, the new Wellness Zone features a large saltwater lap pool, yoga platform and juice bar.

Dining here is a real treat, with breathtaking views over the beach at SeaSky. Savour freshly prepared Thai dishes or superb international flavours from across the globe accompanied by delicious wines that have been selected to complement each dish. After dinner, the newly renovated Sundowners Bar is the perfect spot to sit and enjoy a refreshing cocktail as the sun fades.

Rooms and suites are decorated with a crisp, modern Thai style and are dotted around the resort. Garden and Grand Garden Pavilions have two storeys and a balcony overlooking the gardens, while Terrace Suites get you closer to nature with an outdoor living area. The larger Beach Villas have an additional open-air bathroom and are on the beach, while Ocean Deluxe Villas are found on higher levels behind the Beach Villas and have plenty of additional space.
