Krabi La Playa Resort

Krabi, Thailand

Star rating

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.

Don't be put off by the road in, the hotel is simply stunning! Staff were extremely attentive. Couldn't do enough for you. Fantastic experience. Our room was on 5th floor with great views. Spacious & clean with lots off added extras. What a treat, a bath! Very comfortable beds, slept really well. Lifts just outside door to the pool & restaurant. The pool was huge and very much needed after a hot day out sightseeing. Only struggled on one day to find loungers in the shade. Maybe could do with a few more? Breakfast was relaxing with plenty on offer. Fresh omelette cooked with chosen fillings. Fresh juice, fruit & pastries with traditional choices too. Happy hour by the pool daily was fun! Massage was amazing definitely worth doing. We had our trips organised by hotel & everything was perfect & well thought out! We absolutely loved our stay here & would definitely return to this hotel if we ever come back to Krabi Read less
