"Amazing setting and great setvice"

"We had a wonderful week at Layana leading up to our marriage at the end of our stay. Shout out to Gae who I communicated with on a regular basis prior to our trip and during. She was more than pleasant and helped organize the perfect wedding. Nothing was a problem or too much of an ask. Frank, the manager, was our master of ceremonies. He was dressed in an all white captain suit and delivered a beautiful script. There was a little hiccup the day prior to our wedding regarding preparation but Gae and my makeup artist Way, saved the day with amazing help and service. The resort is quiet and serene. The food was delicious and the pool and beach amazing. They have special dinners daily as well as à la carte and once a week they have a white evening, cocktails on beach. One of the activities we went on was a day trip picnic on a longboat to a small island. Saw beautiful scenery, ate great food, swam in warm clear water and had an opportunity to stop and feed monkeys. We had done an 4 island tour from Krabi but wished that would have waited and did the Layana cruise instead. They pick you up on beach in front of hotel and have a lovely boat! Worth the extra cost as our tour was crowded and not that enjoyable! I could go on and on but in the end it was a memorable experience that will be remembered. "

"Good rooms next to the beach. Near local amenities. "

"PLEASE READ BEFORE BOOKING. My stay was an absolute nightmare. From the moment I arrived, the hotel looked NOTHING like the pictures. The beach itself is beautiful, but the property is old, dirty, and poorly maintained. The room smelled like sewage - I agree with other reviewers who have described it as "staying in Alcatraz." I arrived at my room after dinner to find a cockroach inside. Within 20 minutes, a second (huge) cockroach appeared. For context, I have a deep-rooted phobia of cockroaches. I tried to seek help, but the front desk was closed (they DO NOT offer 24h service), so the staff had to come from home to address the issue. I was hyperventilating (if I could choose not to have this phobia, I certainly would, but alas, here I am). I wanted to leave right away and book alternative accommodation nearby, to which the staff did not respond well. I was engaged in a hostile negotiation for 90 minutes. At one point, I was physically inside a room with two of the staff standing in front of the door - and it certainly did not feel as though I was free to leave. They staunchly refused to agree to a refund, despite Expedia Customer Service attempting to contact them to process it. After 1 1/2 hrs of mental manipulation, I was coerced into accepting an alternative room, which they sprayed with insecticide. I did not sleep, and my stay at this beautiful beach was ruined by this wretched hotel. This hotel cannot continue to exist in its current state. Please don't book this!"

"The staff are absolutely fantastic and they made everything accessible to us. The high hills were a bit challenging but we got used to it but it did limit our night time fun knowing we had to walk up a steep incline. Other than that we had an amazing stay! "

"The staff are lovely and very friendly. The food we had was nice. Breakfast was a basic selection, eggs, 2 thai dishes, salad, pancakes, chicken, sausage, pancake, fruit, cereal and cakes. All the restaurants on the island close at 9pm. I think the stretch of beach at the hotel was the nicest we saw. The room was nice and big. Electricity to the rooms shuts off between 10am and 3pm. There is a small playpark. If staying here make sure your boat drops you at Fantasy. Boats stop outside the hotel"

"The hotel is excellent value for money - Great rooms, big and well maintained pool, nice spa/massage parlor (which is a little more expensive than the local norm) and the beach on our doorstep. Breakfast is varied and good quality. The staff speak very good English at the reception and are very helpful. On the quieter side of the island, perfect if that’s what you are looking for. The main pier for speedboats is about 40 mins away (if you are interested in day trips). The local beach is really fantastic - clean, nice sand, great water (good for kids) and beautiful sunsets. If you want nightlife and shops, the closest is 15 mins away at Khlong Nin. "

"Really lovely room, good breakfast and great staff. Some drawbacks: it's a bit remote towards the end of the road of hotels, there's not enough shade on the beach (umbrellas too small) and the music at the bar was so loud in the evenings I avoided it completely."

"“Excellent stay at Wings Boutique Hotels! The rooms are very clean, modern, and comfortable. The staff are extremely friendly and always ready to help. The location is also convenient. Highly recommended for anyone visiting the area.”"
