About Krabi and Koh Lanta
Krabi province on Thailand's Andaman coast is famous for limestone cliffs, clear water, and easy access to islands such as Phi Phi, Hong Island, and local four-island loops. Koh Lanta sits within this network of beaches, piers, and national park zones, making it practical for both short holidays and week-long stays. Infrastructure has improved steadily — ATMs, mini-marts, clinics, and tour counters are common — yet the region still feels more relaxed than busier beach hubs.
Check In Krabi publishes guides, hotel lists, restaurant picks, and public place notes to help visitors compare options before they book. Always cross-check ferry times, park fees, and national holiday crowds because conditions change by season. Respect marine parks: avoid single-use plastic on boats, do not stand on coral, and follow staff instructions during snorkeling stops.

We stayed in a wonderful ocean villa. It was beautifully appointed from the sheets and towels to the jacuzzi. We had our own chaise lounges on the beach, steps away from the ocean and the pool. The staff was professional and eager to please. The spa services were superb. We did feel that the restaurant fell short of the quality level of the restaurant of the resort.
28/02/2026 16:18It's not obvious from the descriptions that this is a small, intimate resort. I would guess they have at most 100 guests, yet they have probably 40 staff. That makes for an incredibly high level of personal attention. If you are looking for beach bars and night life, this is not it. If you're looking to get away from the madness of the world while still surrounded by luxury, this is the place. In Hawaii equivalency, this is Kawaii, not Waikiki. Also, in general, I hate "organized fun" because it's too cheesy. Yet every event they organized was low key, classy and in good taste. It goes without saying that the food was great, the grounds immaculate and the surroundings pristine.
25/02/2026 20:39I had the pleasure of staying at "Layana Resort & Spa", and it was truly a dream experience. This hotel is absolutely wonderful, with impeccable service from start to finish.
The staff is incredibly kind, attentive, and always ready to fulfill every wish with a genuine smile. They make you feel special and cared for at every moment.
The rooms are simply breathtaking, spacious, elegant, and beautifully designed, offering comfort and tranquility. The beach is stunning, with soft sand and crystal-clear water, perfect for relaxing and enjoying paradise.
The Thai cuisine served at the resort is excellent, authentic, flavorful, and prepared to perfection. Every meal was a delight.
It was a dream vacation that I truly hope to repeat someday!
Not sure where to start. We had the most amazing four days at Layana and we wish we could have stayed longer.
We had a very warm welcome when we arrived and the staff had gone to a lot of trouble to prepare our room with an anniversary message and decorated bed followed by a complimentary bottle of bubbly. This is a truly beautifully serene place with wonderfully kept grounds and rooms to match. The staff are genuinely friendly and can't do enough for you. The staff at the pool made sure we were never without cold drinking water and would bring food and drinks if requested. The restaurant served delicious food and although more expensive than other places you might eat in Thailand we thought it was worth every penny.
Thank you for making our Anniversary trip one to remember.
Such a beautiful, well preserved, tastefully decorated hotel! Located on one of the best beaches of the island, providing easy access to the sea and also offering two decent sized pools. The best sunsets we experienced during our whole Thailand trip were at Layana.
All the staff are very friendly, they take great care of the guests. Not to mention all the kind gestures we received from the hotel as part of our honeymoon. The facilities are very clean, rooms are quiet, breakfast is generous and tasty. We would definitely love to come back in the future.
Thank you very much to Franck and the entire Layana team for making our honeymoon unforgettable.
