Malaiwana Residences

Anantara Layan Phuket is truly one of those rare places I’d return to without a second thought. The atmosphere is incredibly peaceful and private — a perfect sanctuary for those seeking calm and relaxation. Mornings here are a dream. I thoroughly enjoyed the breakfast, especially with the delightful option of starting the day with a sparkling wine or mimosa. Why not indulge a little when you’re surrounded by paradise? The room design impressed me — beautifully integrated with nature, offering both comfort and harmony. Another highlight was the LIFE area, where the gym is located. It’s well-equipped and opens up to lush greenery, making workouts feel refreshing and grounded. The only downside during my stay was the beach renovation. While I understand improvements take time, the construction did take away from the natural beachfront view. Still, it only makes me more excited to return once the work is complete — to see the beach in all its glory again. Anantara Layan isn’t just a resort — it’s a retreat for the soul. I’ll be back.

Initially we booked the Two Bedroom beach Villa (which is the biggest they had in the resort), afterwards we decided to move into their 5 bed room residence Villa. The residence villas are located high on a cliff, over looking the resort and bay. Both are a beautifully decorated villas, but each has its own character. If you want to be close to the action and activities then go for the beach Villa. On the other hand, if you want calm, tranquility, peace, and do meditation the go for the residence Villa. This morning we had a private yoga class for all of us (myself, the wife, and daughter) next to the infinity pool in our residence Villa 👌👌👌. The Residence Villa has its own gym, movie theater, and you also get your own 24 hour in house butler (the lovely Ms. Jasmine).
