FINE DINING AND STARGAZING AWAIT AT LUXURIOUS ISLAND GETAWAY ANANTARA LAYAN PHUKET RESORT

Anantara Layan Phuket Resort has launched Thailand’s first dining and sky observatory. In the subtlest sense of the term, this will absolutely elevate both fine dining and stargazing to further heights of revelation-blessing enjoyment, not to mention create myriad other thrills.

This endeavour is the result of Dara Cuisine Phuket and Sky Observatory signing off on the experience. Dara — which means ‘star’ in Thai — celebrates the country’s culinary heritage and intrepid Andaman seafarers who used the stars for navigation. In this spirit, the new Sky Observatory is built to be a stargazer’s paradise. The breezy observatory deck, equipped with a custom-built Ash dome, offers an intimate rooftop experience where the universe unfolds. As guests sip on constellation-inspired craft cocktails, expert guides take them through the wonders of the night sky, inviting them to cast their gazes skyward through Phuket’s most powerful state-of-the-art telescope.

During the day, an all-star team of Anantara chefs takes the lead in the show kitchen, giving masterclasses in Thai cooking. But it is during dinner service that Dara truly shines as the menu takes diners on a culinary journey, offering a taste of local specialties from all corners of Thailand alongside revered Royal Thai cuisine.

Trust Anantara to take you to the stars.
