Dusit Laguna Resort

Address: 390 Srisoontorn Rd

Description:
The Dusit hotel group has some fine properties in Thailand, and the Dusit Laguna is no exception. The rooms are midsize and done with pastel tiles, faux columns and bathrooms that open to the living area by wide, wooden doors. Spring for a deluxe room with a balcony and ocean view for not much more than standard. Suites are large and luxurious. There are lots of Thai touches throughout, some tacky, others, like some of the large, traditional hangings, are quite pleasing. The hotel features some fine dining options, particularly of note is their quaint Italian restaurant, La Trattoria, serving authentic Italian in a chic but laid-back gardenside pavilion decorated in cool whites and blues. The well-landscaped gardens at seaside have an especially delightful waterfall and an excellent pool, and the grounds open onto a long, wide, white sand beach flanked by two lagoons. Facilities for kids are great: a Kids Corner; babysitting; a playground, and computer games.
