I loved how Centara Ao Nang Beach Resort & Spa Krabi extended a perfect beach getaway. Our welcome drink wasn’t given at the front office but we were taken to the stunning Sands Beach Club & Bar. We enjoyed Roselle Juice checking out the pool and the beach. While at the resort, we enjoyed our dinners at the gorgeous Sands Beach Club & Bar which is known for Coastal and Thai cuisine. Crossing the pool side towards the beach is the beautiful open restaurant where lively atmosphere and great music made for a cherishable experience. A look around, one would see people enjoying, relaxing, having food and drinks. We reached at the time of sunset and the atmosphere was lit with colourful lanterns as well as soothing waves. The menu was quite exhaustive with dedicated sections for burgers, salads, bakes, pasta and much more. There was a special vegetarian section too. It wouldn’t have been fair to only taste a handful so we ordered a wide variety. The staff was friendly too and took good care of us. So lemme tell you what all we ordered and our experience.
The first dish was Punjabi samosa- Wow! The crunch and flavours....loved it! Aloo Paratha had a great taste...India ki yaad aa gayi, Dal Makhani served with parathas….just so yummmm, Vegetable Tikka Masala was mildly spiced and made an impact with mixed veggies, tomato, onion and milk cream based curry and tofu.
Veggie Quesadillas had tortillas were stuffed with spinach, sweet corn, tomato salsa and cheese…a highly recommended dish. Then we also tried Crunchy Thai Spring Rolls - yum yum yum and Beetroot Chicken Patty Burger which was a unique taste for our tastebuds. We also ordered Mixed Indian Bread Set (plain paratha, plain naan, garlic naan and roti) - the taste can’t be compared to India but the chefs did a really good job. The menu also boasted of Indian style Red Sauce Pasta (pasta with tomatoes, garlic, red chilli peppers and cheese). I couldn’t resist trying something which had India prefixed. Well, I had to add oregano and tobacco to bring up the spice quotient but it was really nice. Shirley temple (virgin drink) - made with orange juice, fresh orange, lime and soda water was a true refresher, Virgin Mojito was classy as ever.
Time for desserts and we had Brownie Cake which came accompanied with vanilla ice cream and was so yummmm. We also tried Chocolate and Green Tea ice cream. The latter was absolutely amazing!
Our second dinner was also at Sands Beach Club & Bar where we had yummy delights from their exhaustive menu. We again tried a variety of dishes (and repeated some of our favourites from the previous dinner) - Charcoal Burger Veggie Patty, Dal Makhani (served with Paratha), Vegetable Tikka Masala with tofu, Grilled Vegetable Cheese Sandwich, Cheese Garlic Bread, Mixed Indian Bread Set, Veggie Pizza, Sands Caesar Salad (without bacon), Rosemary Grilled Chicken Breast, Aglio e Olio and Fried Chicken Wings. I would really recommend Aglio e Olio for its classy taste, Vegetable Tikka Masala with tofu (served with paratha) which had a yummy taste of seasonal vegetables and Rosemary Grilled Chicken Breast which was delectable and made to perfection. For drinks, we had Virgin Mojito which was a perfect amalgamation of mint, sugar, lime juice, sugar syrup and ice topped...
Read moreSands Beach Club in Ao Nang, Krabi, is a haven for beach lovers seeking a balanced blend of tranquility and vibrancy. The beach's cleanliness is exemplary, retaining its natural charm while facilitating a comfortable, relaxed experience.
The Club offers a decent array of beers, more than enough to quench the thirst of patrons looking for a refreshing drink. The highlight, however, is their unbeatable happy hour from 4pm to 7pm. The beers, although not a wide-ranging collection, are served perfectly chilled and are undeniably affordable, adding to the laid-back, tropical vibe of the place.
But the true draw of the Sands Beach Club is the breathtaking view of the sunset. As the sun dips into the horizon, the changing colors reflecting off the water paint a picture that leaves you mesmerized. The atmosphere during this time is enchanting, making the experience all the more memorable.
All in all, Sands Beach Club is more than just a place to relax and enjoy a beer. It's about immersing oneself in the spectacular natural beauty and laid-back charm of Ao Nang. A must-visit for a...
Read moreWith my bf, we have been at this place two nights in a row. In the first night, we got cocktails during happy hour. On the second night, we ordered cocktails and burger menu (for 400 baht or so. The ambience is very nice, service is slow. There was a band on the stage as well as fire show, which were very entertaining. However, our experience turned sour when we were at our hotel after 3-4 hours. Although we both ate the same thing, I started the feeling the food very heavy in my stomach. Whole night, I could not sleep due to stomach cramps and the next day, early morning, I started throwing up. I know it s because of the burger we ate. Whole day, I have been feeling sick and throwing up. After a week of eating Thai food, we wanted to eat sth European and at a reliable place, unfortunately, it was not the case:( although the ambience is nice, we do not recommend anyone to order burger menu). It is very upsetting that we paid for the premium price for the food and got...
