From the impressive open-air large foyer to the oversized bedrooms and its position on the lagoon, the Angsana Laguna Phuket never fails to impress. My first visit was back in 2004 with my young family, and they still have very fond memories of the pool, the artificial beach and the yummy Thai food. Back then, the hotel was under the Sheraton brand.
My return visit, this time to attend a travel conference, TBEX, and I was keen to revisit to see how the renovations and new branding that had taken place in 2011 had gone.

This is my Angsana Laguna Phuket luxury hotel review.
Arriving at 12 p.m., three hours before check-in, I found the reception busy. With a lovely Thai welcome, I was asked to sit in the large open-air reception area and enjoyed a refreshing drink and a cold towel.
After a short while, I received the keys and was whisked to my room on a golf cart. The Angsana Laguna Phuket is a large resort with 409 rooms over three floors. Golf buggies are available to move you around the resort. For those who love exercise, walking from your room to the reception or dining areas will keep you fit. Don’t worry about the day’s heat or that quick rain shower; the covered walkways provide all the shelter you need.
I could not remember the room I had with the family back then and was taken aback by the size and grandeur of the large room that I was given. It had its own private sitting area, balcony with lagoon views, and large sunken shower.
When you arrive at a hotel, a lovely touch is always a welcoming fruit platter.
It was time to explore the grounds and have lunch before meeting up with colleagues who were also here for the conference.
Accommodation at the Angsana Laguna Phuket
There is a variety of accommodations available for 2 to 6 people, sizes vary from 40 sqm to 224 sqm:
- Laguna Room – King
- Laguna Room – Twin
- Laguna Grand Room
- Laguna Premier rooms
- Laguna Beachfront Room Twin
- Laguna Poolside Room King
- Laguna Poolside Room Twin
- Angsana 1 bedroom Loft
- 2 Bedroom Island Suite
- 2 Bedroom Island Duplex
- 2 Bedroom Pool Suite, lagoon view
- 2 Bedroom Pool Suite, beach view
- Grand Angsana
When I entered my Laguna Premier King Room, I was impressed by the calming purple colour used throughout the room, from the artwork to the cushions on the L-shaped lounge, floor coverings, and wall coverings, which picked up the purple tones from the fresh orchid flowers scattered throughout the room. A special touch was the aromatherapy burner already lit, emitting a fragrant perfume.
All accommodations are equipped with modern amenities such as air conditioning, an ironing board and iron, a coffee pot, LCD TVs, minibars, and free Wi-Fi.
Angsana Laguna Phuket Facilities
For those of us who still love to exercise in the gym when we travel, the Angsana Laguna Fitness Centre has all the usual weight machines, plus Thai boxing, pilates, and yoga classes.
There is a golf course. Water sports include windsurfing, sailing and stand-up paddle boarding.
The pool is a 323-metre free-form pool. The artificial beach was my favourite area to relax. You can drift lazily down the river or just lie back and float in the water. It is so safe for young children here.
There is a kids’ club with indoor and outdoor play centres. The kids even have their spa.
The adults, too, can enjoy the Angsana Spa and Gallery.
There is also a shuttle boat service between the hotels on the lagoon and to the small shopping village where you can buy grocery items, shop at boutique shops or enjoy a casual meal.
Dining at the Angsana Laguna Phuket
There is no lack of dining options at the Angsana Laguna Phuket.
The Market Place, on the ground floor, has a large breakfast buffet with Western and Asian choices. There is even a kids’ breakfast section with fruit skewers, doughnuts, bread, cakes, and scrambled eggs. With views out over the lagoon, it was hard to leave breakfast on the days that I did not have the conference.
At lunchtime, I enjoy some of the best vegetarian spring rolls at Poolside with a chilled Leo beer.
Xana Beach Bar was great for happy hour and catching up with friends. It was open from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. for drinks and light meals.
Other dining options:
Azura Restaurant – open from midday for Italian cuisine
Loy Krathong Bar – from 11 am to midnight for drinks and international snacks
Baan Talay – Dinner on Monday and Thursday from 6 pm to 10 pm
Bodega & Grill – Daily from 11.30 am to 11 pm for international cuisine
Atoll is open from 4 pm to 10 pm for dinner.
Conference Facilities at the Angsana Laguna Phuket
From what I saw and experienced, Angsana Laguna handles conferences well. There were around 300 delegates for the TBEX conference, which was two full days of presentations, break-out meetings, and workshops. There was such a vast choice of food and drinks at morning and afternoon tea. With some of the yummiest doughnuts I have tasted and even the chance to try Durian and Fig ice cream, which I didn’t think would be a perfect match, but turned out it was, we were well looked after by conference staff.
Conclusion
After spending a week at the Angsana Laguna Phuket, I can highly recommend the location, the hotel, the dining and sporting options and the very comfortable accommodation. I have already recommended the Laguna resort to friends and family.

Hi Guys,
What a special looking place. I see it is at the Northwest end of the island being close to the airport. We’ve spent the least time there as we rent a place in Rawai at the southern tip of Phuket. Fun island and when you enjoy a luxury resort like this it makes the trip all that much better.
Ryan
Ryan it sure does – haven’t been to Rawai – sounds like we should visit next time we head to Phuket.
Recently, I had the opportunity to stay at the Angsana Laguna Phuket, and it was an incredible experience every single time. Throughout the entirety of my visit, the personnel was pleasant, responsive, and helpful. The hotel itself is extremely opulent and features breathtaking panoramas of the bay.
Hi, it really is a great place to stay in Phuket.
