The hotel

The gorgeous gardens and pools at Krabi La Playa Resort provide a great getaway, offering up endless hours of relaxation. One of the resort’s swimming pool is pretty traditional, a series of interconnecting pools accompanied by sunbeds, poolside dining, and swim-up bar with the other ‘Emerald Pool’ is something a bit different. Both stretch right up to some of the hotel’s renovated rooms and suites, allowing guests to step right into the water from their terrace. The two acre gardens are just as inviting, with their own bar and seating spots. And, if that’s not quite enough space to relax, you could always head to the sands of Ao Nang and Noppharat Thara beaches, 150 meters away, with shopping, dining and nightlife nearby.

Lovely hotel and friendly staff in a great location. I especially enjoyed the swimming pools. Breakfast buffet was good, the only reason I didn't give 5 stars was because some of the food in the restaurant wasn't very nice when we had dinner there.

⭐ 1 Star Very Poor Experience – Not Recommended for Indian or Vegetarian Guests I am currently staying at Hotel La Playa Resort, Krabi, in rooms 8102, 8103, and 8104 with a group of seven guests, and the experience so far has been extremely disappointing. From the moment we arrived, no bellboys were provided to help us with our luggage. The hotel staff is very rude and uncooperative, and there’s a clear lack of basic hospitality. We requested simple vegetarian food like French fries or potato wedges, and even that was refused, despite us clearly mentioning we are pure vegetarians. Furthermore, the hotel insists on charging for basic items like ice, drinking water bottles, or any small requests that are usually standard in decent hotels. There’s no sense of courtesy or effort to make guests feel welcome. Everything here feels like a transaction. This hotel is clearly not Indian-friendly and not suitable for vegetarian guests either. The facilities are lacking, and the overall attitude of the staff is cold and dismissive. We will also be reporting this to our tour company to ensure that no future Indian groups face this same treatment. Avoid this hotel if you expect basic respect, service, and hospitality. Read less

Nice hotel - good for families- close to plenty of shops and restaurants- beach is a walk away- really close for tours to Phi Pho islands - which I would recommend- pools are good size and staff are really friendly and accommodating - would return to this hotel

I don’t agree with the other reviews, before arriving I read a lot of them and they were largely mentioning the staff being lazy or careless, the breakfast not having variety and the rooms not being in good condition. I think the staff were very friendly and involved, they were always greeting me whenever I came in or out, they were always ready to deal with a situation, they were fast and understanding and the cleaners were very good and quick. I do think the breakfast could have a little bit more variety or some more food because it did run out quite fast but it’s not a bother if you are there early, there was a lot of construction noise on one of the days but if you don’t plan to chill by the pool or stay in your room all day that’s not a problem, the plugs in the bathroom didn’t work in the sink and bathtub but the staff were quick to resolve the issue. Overall, it is a very nice, clean hotel with lovely staff and nice pools, it’s a great location for restaurants and the beach with a 7-Eleven only a 2 minute walk away. I would recommend this hotel to anyone that doesn’t want to spend huge amounts of money but still wants a luxurious holiday in krabi. Read less
