We stayed here in an emergency as there was a storm and we were unhappy to risk the boat ride back to Aonang. Staff were very helpful providing toothbrushes etc for us. They even upgraded our room to make our stay more comfortable. Breakfast right beside the lapping waves of the sea was amazing.

This is a beautiful hotel on the beach. Pool is nice and rooms are very nice. Only complaint would be that they don’t serve alcohol on this property so have to go next door or down walking street. We aren’t big drinkers but it would have been nice to have a drink by the pool. Having said that we would probably stay here again. Definitely looked like the nicest hotel on the little strip

Lovely second floor room, interior but near pool and easy access to breakfast. Outside balcony a nice touch with day bed. Breakfast good choice. Beach beautiful before and after day trippers. We were pleasantly surprised that trippers did not spoil the day too much. The limestone scenery is stunning, pure Krabi/Phang Nga Bay being so close was almost humbling.
