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.

Such a relaxing hotel! The pool and gardens are amazing and very peaceful yet just a couple of minutes walk to the busy street market and restaurants. The room was very spacious with a great sea view where we could watch the sunset. Powerful shower which is always a big plus! Comfy bed and a fridge were great too! So many choices for breakfast! Everything that you could want and more. 2 for 1 cocktails were inviting and I am still working my way through the menu! This hotel is in a great location to get to local attractions. Just a 5 minute walk to the beach where you can get boats to the islands and local beaches. Read less

The pool area is very beautiful and clean. We love the peace and quiet, despite the city just outside. The service from the poolbar is top notch. Thank you for a wonderful holiday. We look forward to see you all again. However we hope that the air-condition in the room will be fixed. Read less
