Overall, very good!
Very limited on vegetarian options though! Staff doesnt fully understand what vegetarian food is.

Cannot say it enough. I love it here! Would come back a hundred times. The staff is super helpful and kind, the spa is amazing and we loved the food options. Great place! Would recommend! We do need to point out that it is a covert small beach which can dry out at certain times of the day due to low tide.

The hotel, the staff, restaurants and vibe are incredible, this is our second time in the property and we thought the first time was amazing but the second time exceeded our expectations.

It was an unforgettable 4 nights at the resort everything was outstanding .. but we had an issue with our villa, which is the bed it wasn’t flat it has an inward feeling to it .. it wasn’t comfortable.

Amazing location, beautiful views and very friendly, hospitable and hard-working staff
Special shout out to Prince for taking care of us and other guests (If someone from the hotel is reading this, give him a raise and a promotion). Also thanks to the resident nurse for his help when we needed. The staff in charge of other activities were super-honest (they told us the weather might not be good for the boat ride, but it's our choice to do, not pushy at all).
In order to make the review balanced here is a negative points: I didn't get he Expedia VIP's discount on food that I was supposed to get. To be fair, I also forgot to remind them when checking out and the amount is not much (Considering the price of food in Thailand), but Expedia just reminded me of that, so here it is.

The property is beautiful and peaceful; if you are looking for a more quiet retreat in Phuket, this is the place!
The private pool villa with great spacious rooms, stunning views, beautiful grounds, and pool areas; great housekeeping service, room amenities, etc.
Incredible service: the staff at this hotel really goes above and beyond to make your stay super special; the breakfast buffet and their staff are just incredible.
Thank you very much Anantara; this was our Tropical paradise.

Overall, we had a great stay at the Anantara. Staff showed dedication and passion. Shout-outs to Jimmy, Plathong, Fit and colleagues at the sea sports hut, and Tar at the Chang Club. Property was very well-maintained, and staff were ever-attentive. Only downside was the uncomfortable insistence that guests pay for pricey bottled water at the restaurants, when clearly, they were able to get free drinking water elsewhere on premises and in their room. Understandably, beverages help pad the margin, and every dollar is needed by F&B/hospitality in these challenging COVID times, but perhaps there would be a better way to approach that that sets guests more at ease and allows them more peace of mind and enjoyment of your beautiful hotel. Yoga at over USD130/session is frankly also excessive. I felt bad for the visiting yogi who was on site; our room was next to the beautiful pavilion used for yoga, but attendance was nil to 1-2 people max. Again, this calls to question the overall pricing of a la carte items. Might there be ways to mitigate the onsite sticker shock, so that guests can set their minds at ease and fully embrace their holidays rather than being forced to do the mental calisthenics of whether these add-ons were “worth splurging on”. A potentially restorative yoga session with an untested instructor should not be viewed as a splurge.
2.5
Great place. Works fantastically for families. Great service and nice villas. Only small miinus is that the tise is very strong and when it’s low - it’s very muddy. But would go back in a heartbeat.
2.5
A beautiful setting, with such wonderful staff. Holiday of a lifetime. Would love to go back.
2.0
Amazing environment, the property is beautiful and peaceful. Employees do more than their job: they anticipate our needs, they are so kind. In all property’s areas, we felt care. The only less positive point has been that we were woke up each morning with the unpleasant sound of gardeners tools motors, much too soon in the morning (8AM).
2.5
Our stay at the property was an incredible experience. The private pool villa, housekeeping service, room amenities etc. were amazing and the property is right on the beach which made our stay memorable. You can enjoy the tide in and the tide out walk on the beach. Kayaking, paddle boarding and various other water sports are included. There is a complimentary shuttle to a nearby shopping area as well as local restos offer complimentary shuttles as well so you have lots of options around the resort. Definitely will return again.

Really elegant property. A fantastic breakfast with everything imaginable. Incredible service.
2.5
Peaceful resort with stunning views great spacious rooms, beautiful grounds and pool areas and attention to detail such as iced water brought to you at the beach, chilled face towels at the pool. Attentive staff and even the hotel manager came to chat to guests

The property is relatively new and in excellent condition. If you are looking for a more quiet retreat in Phuket, this is the place!

Beautiful hotel, fantastic service and staff. Everything is luxurious, and the staff go out of their way to make your stay better.
1.5
Property is very nice - well maintained and pleasing on the eye. The beds are very comfortable.
Staff are eager to help with day to day requests however as an experience the resort falls very short.
2.5
The infinity pool overlooking the ocean was so beautiful and fun to use. we loved the ability to rent jet skis or canoes from the resort itself and enjoy right from the resort. The location is far but if you're going for a high end resort experience, then this is it. The breakfast is fantastic and worth five stars in itself. The staff is extremely friendly and takes cares of you.

It was awesome!!
I’d like to stay next time.

The resort provided the best service ever, compared to all 5-star resorts that I had visits in Phuket (over 10). The only complaint was limited choice of restaurant in the resort.

Excellent! We asked for a quiet room and Anantara gave us one. Made the stay fantastic!
2.5
This was our 2nd time staying at an Anantara resort - we returned because of the good hospitality we experienced in their Riverside Resort in Bangkok.
Needless to say Anantara Layan went well above our expectations!
Room
We went with a Deluxe Pool Villa - which is basically a large size room with a king bed and an outdoor area with a plunge pool. The room also has an espresso machine, tea maker, large TV, Apple TV, Bose sound system etc. The pool area is spacious for 2 people and contains an outdoor bathtub, deck chairs etc
Resort and facilities
The resort is located on a lagoon offshoot of BangTao beach. There are various activities at the beach like paddle boarding, kayaking, sailing, water cycling, table tennis, volleyball - all complimentary. We went on long kayaking trips in the lagoon and it was very enjoyable. There are plenty of deck chairs and the staff are very prompt in making sure you have towels & cold water
Dining
Breakfast was wonderful with good variety and quality. Don't miss the complimentary sparkling wine at breakfast
Pizza's at Breeze were quite good too - enough to satisfy mid-day hunger pangs
Dee Plee (Thai restaurant) was fantastic - the quality of the food was incredible. We went there 3 times
Service
The staff was very helpful and friendly and seemed like they genuinely wanted us to have a good time. Special thanks to Po an Dao at reception, Gan at breakfast, Prince, Nook and Tee at the pool/beach area
2.5
Nice staff, beach front, villa, breakfast is amazing
