Reviews
Hotel buildings/rooms: It's evident from the structure and grounds that this used to be a grand and luxurious hotel.
The room we stayed in (the Landmark Suite) was spacious. However the age is evident - from the stained marble floors, cracked wooden doors. The TV had no option to mirror or Netflix installed. Like other reviewers mentioned, there is a strong musty smell, whether from the sewerage outside or the moldy air-conditioners.
Upgrading works are ongoing and hopefully they will restore the hotel to its previous glory.
F & B : The breakfast selection was great and the staff were courteous and professional. I am still amazed by the main staff at the eggs/waffle/noodle station - he could remember the orders perfectly (I ordered 2 different selection of ingredients for 2 omelets)
The cocktails at the bar were good, and again the staff there are friendly and warm.
Other than 1 reception staff who was a little rude and unhelpful, everyone we came across was very helpful, kind and friendly. The service of this hotel makes it 5 star, even if the current state of the hotel is not.
The beach was pristine and perfect for relaxation. While the resort is a bit far from the main streets and there was some construction, these were minor issues compared to the overall experience. I highly recommend this resort for a peaceful and luxurious stay in Phuket.
Each evening, housekeeping would bring a different Thai snack or Thai drink to the room with a handwritten card. Nice touch.
There was a always a variety of food to choose from at the restaurants, they would switch it up between Thai, Southern Thai, Western, and regional options. The French toast at the breakfast buffet is highly recommended.
Unfortunately, during the few days I stayed there, the weather was overcast and rained hard. As far as I know, the hotel can't do anything to change that. The main areas and rooms were nonetheless comfortable. All the rooms face sea-facing balconies and wide windows for when it's raining. The landscaping is also nice, when you step out of the room door on the other side, you are surrounded by the vines and calming vegetation.
When a more normal time returns to Thailand, I would be interested to check out the many activities that the hotel offers. And hopefully, will be able to enjoy the sunset at a future time.
Dusit Thani Laguna is located directly on the sea and in a green environment 'Laguna' with several lakes, beautifully landscaped gardens, good sidewalks and nice shops, restaurants, art galleries and massage and beauty salons. There are no noisy bars or other entertainment venues. Everything here is very well kept and just right. The best place in Phuket for those who love peace, a personal approach and quality and appreciate real hospitality.
Dusit Thani Laguna has a wonderful and super hospitable staff. How at home I feel here! From general manager to chambermaid, everyone here is very friendly, sincere, passionate and accessible. Because I like to dance, I suggested to organize a biodanza event. That idea was seized with both hands and put into practice.
Furthermore, it is wonderful to relax on the beach in a hammock, in the pool with a view of the sea, on the lake in a canoe, at the beach bar with a good glass of wine, beer or cocktail.
Also the food is delicious. Ask for the lobster! If you have any special wishes, tell the chef or someone else on the staff. Any reasonable request will be honored with love.
I have seen a lot of Phuket. I am incredibly happy that I chose Dusit Thani Laguna. I am alone here using Phuket Sandbox. I live in Thailand and will definitely come back with my husband, kids and friends. Highly recommended! Paradise!
I used the gym quite a few times during my stay and there was a good range of weights for squats and dumbbells, perfect for staying fit. My wife arranged for a private session of Muay Thai and really enjoyed her experience
We really our stay in the hotel. The staff and the management are really helpful.
The location is next to the beach. While there are different levels/names of the room you can book which mean different distance from the bench, the views on all of them aren't that bad and you can enjoy the view of trees instead of the bench.
Breakfast is great. We like all the food here.
The shuttle can be requested easily, but they are only for Laguna hotels in the same area.
Small notes on the club room we got:
- curtain won't block all lights like you can expect in usual brand name hotels
- free water
- some plugs we found are old and a bit loose.
On Sandbox: they were busy (I think) and we had to call them several times in early July for urgent requests. Eventually things got done and they remained respectful throughout the process, though I hope they were more responsive and quicker as time goes. In short, call if you need help and they will assist you. After arrival they have been really helpful to connect dots for us (which I believe many hotels are feeling the same: that things for Sandbox are not very organized yet)
