Overview
Laguna Beach Resort 2 is a massive 4-building development that significantly expanded the "resort-living" concept established by its predecessor. Completed in 2016, the project stands out for its vast open area—over 5,000 sqm of the 8-rai plot is dedicated to communal space. The buildings are spaced up to 75 meters apart, ensuring that the interior-facing units feel airy and open rather than claustrophobic.
The facility list is impressive, catering heavily to the "active vacationer" and families. It features an Olympic-sized pool alongside a winding canal-style lagoon pool complete with waterfalls and caves. While it sits slightly further back from the beach than Laguna 1, it compensates with more extensive on-site amenities and a quieter residential feel away from the main road noise.
Developer
Developed by Heights Holdings, a heavyweight in the Pattaya real estate market known for large-scale, themed resort condominiums. Their strategy focuses on delivering high-amenity projects (like the Arcadia and Laguna series) at aggressive price points. While their projects are high-density, they are popular in the secondary rental market because they offer facilities that are easy to market to tourists and short-term tenants.

Pros
- Exceptional Communal Space - The 75m building gap is a rare luxury in high-density Pattaya developments.
- Olympic Pool - One of the few condos in Jomtien where you can actually swim long-distance laps.
- Modern Utilities - As a 2016 build, the electrics and plumbing are generally more reliable than the 90s towers.
- Quiet Location - Tucked into Soi 17, it avoids the direct noise of the Thappraya and Thepprasit thoroughfares.
Cons
- Car/Motorbike Necessary - Unlike the View Talay towers, you aren't right on a major Baht Bus line; it's a bit of a hike to public transport.
- Pool Crowds - The "Water Park" vibe attracts many families; the weekends can be noisy and the sun loungers fill up by 8:00 AM.
- Maintenance Variance - With 1,100 units, the quality of common area maintenance depends heavily on the current juristic board.
Best For
- Active Swimmers who want an Olympic-sized pool for daily exercise.
- Families with Kids who need on-site entertainment like slides and a playground.
- Digital Nomads who want a modern unit in a quieter residential soi.
The Bottom Line
Laguna Beach Resort 2 is "The Active Resort." It successfully balances massive scale with open green space. While its location requires a bit more planning for transit, the superior pool facilities and modern unit designs make it a higher-tier "budget" choice for those who value the grounds as much as the room itself.
