Really good Culinary Experience

I had the pleasure of dining at the impressive Dee Plee restaurant during my stay. The Thai cuisine was really good and truly a highlight of my trip. The vibrant flavors and presentation exceeded my expectations. A special mention to the dinner experience, which was elaborately designed by the chef. Definitely worth indulging in if you're a fan of Thai food!

Heavenly Spa Retreat

My experience at the Anantara Spa was simply divine. I booked a couples massage, and it was hands down the best I've ever experienced. The atmosphere was tranquil, with beautiful treatment rooms and really good therapists who paid attention to every detail. It was the perfect way to unwind after a long day in the sun.

Luxurious Private Villa

I stayed in a magnificent Sala Pool Villa, and it was everything I dreamed of. The private pool was a fantastic addition, allowing me to relax in complete serenity. The spacious layout with beautiful decor made me feel right at home. The outdoor bath was an added touch of luxury that I absolutely adored. Highly recommend this for anyone looking for ultimate privacy and comfort.

I had a wonderful stay at Anantara Layan Phuket, where the luxurious ambiance and attentive service truly made my experience special. The private beach access was a major highlight, and the room was spacious and clean, providing the perfect escape. However, dining options, while good, could use a bit more variety. The shuttle service was convenient but came with a fee, which was a slight disappointment.

The Anantara Layan is a stunning property with beautiful scenery and a luxurious feel. The staff is incredibly friendly and attentive, making the stay enjoyable. However, the dining prices can be quite high, and the location in a lagoon makes swimming in the sea difficult due to low water levels. Additionally, the clientele may not be welcoming to everyone, which could affect certain guests' comfort.

Overall, this resort provides a refreshing escape, although some refinements in service and dining consistency would elevate the experience.
