Of all the beautiful beaches Phuket has to offer, Layan may be the most deserving of the word. On this quiet beach that curves around a bay the waves break rhythmically onto white powder sand, and sometimes it feels possible to just dissolve into the clear azure skies that stretch over everything. Long summer afternoons on Layan are the Phuket dream after which the whole world comes chasing.

Layan Beach is located only minutes from the internationally-renowned Laguna area, which means easy access to world-class golf courses, tennis courts, delicious seaside restaurants and foreign and local markets. It is all just around the corner, literally. Few places on Earth have this balance of natural tranquillity and cosmopolitan living, which is why holiday-makers and investors have begun snapping up the gorgeous beachfronts and jungle blocks that surround this area, making it the “hot spot” for investment in Phuket right now.
