Exceptional value and accommodations for a larger family enjoying Ao Nang and Krabi. Yes, it is a little off the beaten path (which we knew from other reviews) but it is still very close to all that Ao Nang has to offer-- less than ten minutes. We enjoyed the clean, quiet, and comfortable rooms. The air conditioning works great. The pool is refreshing and clean.

They really cared well for our family when we needed to stay another night. This is an all around wonderful resort and we hope to return...

They helped us get a scooter, buy a birthday cake for my daughter, book some time scuba diving (once the parks opened), and get connected with a very good tailor. Whenever there was a problem with anything I would talk to Sven and it was always dealt with in a hurry. The bungalow is perfectly suited for short term and longterm stays, and if we needed anything for the kitchen we just asked and they helped us out. Our children had freedom and loved to swim in the pool and explore the wildlife. In 5 months they became...
