On Layan Beach

Brand new Anantara Layan lies on a golden sandy beach on the West coast of Phuket, surrounded by national park, so nature here is wonderful and the beaches unspoilt.

I was here for dinner and a hotel inspection, and got a chance to try the wonderful spa therapists

Friendly, smiling staff at the spa

Warmly welecomed...

Here the GM Andy Kunz and sales &
marketing executive Ayesha Barker

Anantara Layan has 77 rooms, suites and pool villas. Each room and villa is a bit different in style but all very fresh.

We were invited for a special dinner with seafood as the main dish.

For honeymooners I recommend the beachside pool villas – step straight out from your deck onto the warm golden sands…
