  • Laguna Beach resort was suppose to be dlx 5 star, but it didn't feel like one, not in facilities, rooms, food or room. We stayed in the newly renovated premier deluxe rooms. The rooms were dark and dank and still look old and run down( despite the new renovations). The bathroom was badly designed, the glass shower screen was too narrow and does little to prevent water from splashing all over the bathroom, water flowed from around the bathtub and flooded the floor. The seaview was almost non exisistent as there are many huts of beach vendors, that almost totally obliterated the view (and we are already on the 3rd floor), for rooms on the 4th floor, the view would be blocked by the trees, so it is defintely not worth paying for a seaview. Breakfast selection was poor and was exactly the samefor the 3 days that we were there.The waterpark isn't as great as it looks on the website ... this is the first hotel that we had ever stayed at where our kids didn't even ask to go to the pool.
    Service was not 5 star either. there were hardly any smiles all around. and 1 bell hop refused to give us a tag for our luggage when we had to check out earlier and leave our luggage with them while we waited for our airport transfer, Becos, he was knocking off before our transport arrived, and he realised that he may not get the tip for helping us with the lugguage (he made this clear when he muttered that he was knocking off).
    The only bright spot in service was the guest relations officer, who was very helpful when I needed to get medication for my daughter. And Anna the resident elephant.

    The free night promotion was not worth-it. The bill can only be paid using credit cards if it is paid in BHT, but the rates were charged in USD, so that means anyone using credit card would suffer multiple rates conversions and what you see is not what you paid. For 5 star hotel like Laguna Beach, to be only able to pay in BHT but charged in USD...was rather unexpected... Its not a hotel I would stay at again..nor recommend to any friend.

  • This was a wonderful resort. We had only 4 days to spend in Phuket, and staying in a comfortable place was definitely a must. We stayed here prior to the tsunami, so I am not sure of this resort´s fate after that.

    I would recommend this resort to anyone visiting Phuket. The staff is friendly. The spa is relaxing, the pool pretty, and the beach nice (but I have to admit that I was annoyed by the locals who would offer massages every few minutes).

    great spa

    We stayed at this hotel because of the location. It was the starting point for the Laguna Phuket International Marathon. It is also the racekit collection centre and marathon expo.

    Our balcony opens up to the beach. So, we get to be serenaded by the waves to sleep at night. The room is spacious and elegantly decorated. It was a pity that my stay was too short and I didn't get to enjoy the facilities at this five star resort.

    We love the resident elephant. She can be seen wondering around in the resort compound with her mahout (elephant driver). She is a bright elephant and know how to pose for camera. Very friendly.
