Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1–10. To get the overall score that you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of review scores we’ve received. We're currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. In addition, guests can give separate "subscores" in crucial areas, such as location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value for money, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and their overall scores independently, so there’s no direct link between them.
You can review an accommodation that you booked through our platform if you stayed there, or if you got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize in detecting fake reviews submitted to our platform. If we find any, we delete them and, if necessary, take action against whoever is responsible.
Anyone who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
Contributions should be travel related. The most helpful contributions are detailed and help others make better decisions. Please don’t include personal, political, ethical, or religious commentary. Promotional content will be removed and issues concerning Booking.com’s services should be routed to our Customer Service or Accommodation Service teams.
Contributions should be appropriate for a global audience. Please avoid using profanity or attempts to approximate profanity with creative spelling, in any language. Comments and media that include hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, sexually explicit remarks, violence, or the promotion of illegal activity are not permitted.
All content should be genuine and unique to the guest. Reviews are most valuable when they are original and unbiased. Your contribution should be yours. Booking.com property partners should not post on behalf of guests or offer incentives in exchange for reviews. Attempts to bring down the rating of a competitor by submitting a negative review will not be tolerated.
Respect the privacy of others. Booking.com will make an effort to obscure email addresses, telephone numbers, website addresses, social media accounts, and other similar details.
The opinions expressed in contributions are those of Booking.com customers and properties, and not of Booking.com. Booking.com does not accept responsibility or liability for any reviews or responses. Booking.com is a distributor (without any obligation to verify) and not a publisher of these comments and responses.
By default, reviews are sorted based on the date of the review and on additional criteria to display the most relevant reviews, including but not limited to: your language, reviews with text, and non-anonymous reviews. Additional sorting options might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

GermanyUnforgettable Bliss: A Review of Layana Resort & Spa in Koh Lanta Nestled along the pristine shores of Koh Lanta, Layana Resort & Spa proved to be more than just a destination; it was a haven of unparalleled luxury and warmth. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with smiles that set the tone for what would become an unforgettable experience. The entire service staff at the resort went above and beyond to ensure our comfort and satisfaction throughout our stay. Khum's infectious laughter greeted us each morning, Zay's willingness to answer any question made us feel truly cared for and Khun's leadership infused the entire team with joy and happiness. Sandee's meticulous organization ensured that every detail was taken care of, while Dea and Franck managed seamlessly in the background, orchestrating an experience that exceeded our expectations. The room service was excellent, with prompt and attentive staff catering to our every need. The resort's small and familiar atmosphere added to the sense of belonging we felt from the very beginning. The cleanliness and stylish design of the resort further enhanced our experience, creating an atmosphere of tranquility and relaxation. One of the highlights of our stay was the beautiful sandy beach, where we spent countless hours basking in the sun and swimming in the crystal-clear waters. The serene silence that enveloped the resort made each moment feel like a precious gift, allowing us to truly unwind and rejuvenate. Special mention must also be made of the gardeners and pool staff, who not only kept the grounds immaculate but also ensured that we stayed hydrated with refreshing drinks throughout the day. In conclusion, our stay at Layana Resort was nothing short of magical. From the fantastic service staff to the beautiful surroundings, every aspect exceeded our expectations. We will be back soon. Khop khun khrap. Michael & Anselmo

There is nothing to fault at this hotel.. the pools are lovely the beach is kept clean and the main restaurant is really good too. The sunsets are sublime and the staff are super helpful and friendly. They have happy hour during sunsets so sitting in the sundowner bar on the outside seating sipping a cocktail is a fabulous end to the daylight hours. The best thing about the hotel is it is Adult only, a huge bonus ! We will definitely return.

ColombiaThe only recommendation is for the hotel to include more original & classic thai dishes on its menu. I saw many guests, including ourselves, going out for lunch and dinner in order to have real thai cousine. With such a beautiful and unique place not serving authintique thai cousine looks like a waste. Aside from this, we had the best experience and we will recommend it extensively.
Everything was excellent, specially the service which was top. Cheers. Andres

United KingdomIdeally the room would have been closer to the beach but it was fine and was very close to the second (salt water) pool. Not much worthwhile sightseeing available on the island (not the hotel's fault!)
The room was very large with very comfortable bed, excellent bathroom and good air con. Very quiet. The beach was great with direct access and hotel sunbeds on the beach. On arrival on the beach, staff brought towels and continuous supply of cold water plus took orders for coffee, snacks etc. Lovely fresh water pool up to the beach side. By early afternoon, the beach was getting too hot for us so we used to move to the second pool which is further back and got some breeze. Very nice gym. The hotel has quite a few boat trips of various types - we did two snorkelling trips which were excellent, including the scenery and clear sea (the sea by the hotel was a bit cloudy with sand when we were there).

NetherlandsJust minor improvements can be done, like a list of events given at check-in would be helpful. We missed the Thai dinner buffet as we didn't know that is an option on Wednesdays. Also a daily special for lunch could be nice for those who don't like junk food. We ate some good food but outside the standard fish&chips menu, only because we said we didn't come to Thailand to eat pizza :)
+Very relaxing place, no loud music, just sound of sea and birds. + Very nice type of guests, friendly, focused on relaxation. + Extraordinary staff. Attentive. Always helpful, to the point I was under the impression they could read my mind. I would sit on the beach and think "hmm I would eat something," and a few seconds later, a staff member would stand next to me, asking if I would like to have some fruit:) + We didn't really like lunch menu, but one of the ladies from the staff would treat us like mother treats her daughters and offer something outside the menu, we wanted to try only Thai food and she made sure we could do it, she always recommended us nice Thai soups:) Also other staff members would take our food preferences into consideration. + The room was comfortable, enough space to unpack. + They even provided drinking water to brush the teeth. + The landscape makes you feel very relaxed, a lot of open space, not crowded with guests. Enough sun beds. + Amaizing massages at Spa and very personal approach, I booked a second massage which was designed specifically for my health problem. The massage was truly healing. + Gluten free, home made, bread. + Very nice, long, beach. + Good location to explore the island. + Next to the street with shops, but hotel is not noisy. + Security guards doing their job very well. Always watching if someone from outside is not enetering the property. + We felt very comfortable there and I would happily come back by myself, as it felt very safe and homey.

PolandFood in restaurant was bad and highly overpriced. Like 4x overpriced. I understand that hotel needs to make profit but charging 3000bahts for a boat trip where locals are charging 1000 is distasteful. Only once there was frizzante (poor quality) for breakfast

GermanyI have no complaints. I had an excellent stay.
Excellent facilities: beautiful rooms (super clean), nice balcony; 2 cleans pools with a generous supply of ice cold drinking water); well equipped gym. Layana is located on the beautiful Long Beach so you can enjoy a nice walk on the 2km Long Beach or have your breakfast/dinner with the amazing See view. The breakfast is excellent; lots of freshly cut fruits and freshly pressed juices. The staff are friendly and very helpful; thumbs up to Frank, Sindee, Kaek and the whole team. To keep it short Layana is the best place if want to be pampered.
