Radisson Resort Layan Phuket has officially opened on the island’s northwest coast, giving travelers a new place to stay near the quiet shores of Layan Beach and the protected landscapes of Sirinat National Park.
The 300-room resort marks another step in Radisson Hotel Group’s expansion in Thailand. It combines modern tropical design with Thai hospitality, offering visitors easy access to nature while remaining close to some of Phuket’s most popular attractions.
Unlike the busier beach areas that attract large crowds throughout the year, Layan offers a more relaxed atmosphere. That makes the resort an attractive option for families, couples, business travelers, and anyone looking for a quieter holiday without being far from Phuket’s main attractions.
Why Layan Beach is becoming one of Phuket’s most desirable locations
Layan Beach has steadily gained attention among travelers who want a calmer alternative to Phuket’s more commercial destinations. Its peaceful coastline, nearby forests, and protected natural surroundings offer visitors a different side of the island.
The resort is located within a 15-minute drive of Laguna Phuket, Boat Avenue, Porto de Phuket, several championship golf courses, and popular beach clubs. Phuket International Airport can be reached in about 30 minutes, making arrivals and departures convenient for both domestic and international visitors.
Tim Cordon, Chief Operating Officer for the Middle East, Africa, and Southeast Asia Pacific at Radisson Hotel Group, said Thailand remains one of the company’s key markets, with Phuket continuing to attract travelers from around the world. He said the new resort strengthens the group’s growing collection of leisure properties across Southeast Asia while giving guests an opportunity to enjoy one of Phuket’s most scenic coastal areas.
Modern rooms designed for every type of traveler
The resort offers 300 guestrooms and suites across several accommodation categories.
Guests can choose from standard rooms, spacious family suites, and two-bedroom suites designed for longer stays. Every room includes a private balcony, premium bedding, smart televisions, complimentary high-speed Wi-Fi, and generous living areas to provide comfort whether guests are staying for a weekend or several weeks.
Natural light, soft earth tones, and contemporary interiors create a calm atmosphere that reflects Phuket’s tropical surroundings.
Dining options highlight local and international cuisine
Food plays an important role in the guest experience, with three dining venues serving a mix of Thai flavors and international dishes.
The Taste Restaurant
The Taste Restaurant serves Southeast Asian cuisine throughout the day. Guests can enjoy regional specialties prepared with fresh herbs, aromatic spices, and local ingredients in a casual setting.
Mangrove Bar & Restaurant
Mangrove Bar & Restaurant focuses on seafood, grilled dishes, and handcrafted cocktails. Its relaxed atmosphere makes it a popular place to unwind from afternoon into the evening.
Aroonsawat Cafe
Guests looking for lighter meals or quick refreshments can visit Aroonsawat Cafe, which serves coffee, tea, Starbucks beverages, fresh pastries, sandwiches, and grab-and-go snacks.
Wellness and recreation take center stage
The resort has been designed to give guests plenty of opportunities to relax or stay active during their visit.
The Malai Spa offers traditional Thai-inspired wellness treatments, including massages and aromatherapy sessions for guests looking to unwind.
Those who prefer to exercise can use the 24-hour fitness center, which includes modern cardio equipment, strength-training machines, and dedicated yoga facilities.
Outside, three swimming pools surrounded by tropical gardens provide separate spaces for families, leisure travelers, and guests who simply want to relax under the Phuket sun.
Business events and celebrations also have a place
The property is not only focused on leisure travel. It also caters to meetings, conferences, corporate events, weddings, and private celebrations.
The resort includes four meeting rooms named Karon, Kata, Patong, and Layan, along with a ballroom measuring approximately 324 square meters.
Each venue is equipped with high-speed Wi-Fi, LED displays, and modern audiovisual systems, allowing businesses and event planners to host everything from executive meetings to large social gatherings.
Radisson Resort Layan Phuket offers easy access to nature and local culture
One of the resort’s biggest advantages is its location.
Guests can spend time on the quiet sands of Layan Beach, walk through Sirinat National Park, or enjoy shopping, dining, and golf at nearby Laguna Phuket.
Those wanting to explore beyond the resort can visit Old Phuket Town, known for its colorful architecture and cultural heritage. Other nearby attractions include Wat Phra Thong temple, Bang Rong Community, Banana Beach, and Leam Son Beach. Local markets, waterfront cafes, and authentic Thai restaurants provide even more opportunities to experience the island beyond its beaches.
A growing presence for Radisson in Thailand
The opening of Radisson Resort Layan Phuket reflects the continued demand for high-quality accommodation in Thailand’s tourism market.
As Phuket attracts travelers seeking everything from luxury holidays to extended tropical escapes, hotels are increasingly expanding into quieter parts of the island where visitors can enjoy nature without giving up modern comforts.
General Manager Nanthaphat Santisaksakul said every part of the resort was designed to create a welcoming retreat where contemporary comfort, attentive service, and Phuket’s natural beauty come together. He added that the team looks forward to welcoming families, couples, and long-stay guests while delivering the warm hospitality Thailand is known for.
For travelers looking to experience a quieter side of Phuket while remaining close to beaches, shopping, dining, and cultural attractions, Radisson Resort Layan Phuket offers a new option that balances relaxation with convenience.
